Nice shooting pal, probably the best i have ever seen with a sub 12 at 100 yards and ya know only yesterday i thought about doing the same with my HW 77 LOL.
Thanks Simon, give it a go.. chilly is going to have a go with the tx ,you should definitely have a go with the 97. I genuinely think I could have done a bit better, it was all an unplanned rush and I completely lost my composure after the first 5 shots,couldn't keep it together 😆
@@tillysgunstocks We all do it to be honest and as you probably know the more shots you fire it usually just gets worse but its all fun at the end of the day.
I know here in the US people want as much power as possible. But honestly the low powered guns are more fun. They can really test the shooter and his equipment
It's incredibly testing at the lower power levels, it certainly keeps me on my toes. I saw Lauren parsons (USA)had a great weekend at the ft world champs shooting at sub12. On the international stage it's a common ground nowadays. 😉
Hello my friend, Thank you for posting your target work footage and also showing us your beautiful air rifle. It looks like a fantastic piece of kit! It's really nice to see your passion, enjoyment, and enthusiasm in carrying out what you are doing and also demonstrating what a top end sub 12ftlb air rifle is capable of. I am the very proud owner of an Air Arms Utimate Sporter Regulated, also in 12ftlb. I'm 53 now and quite new to air rifle shooting, though it's something I've longed to do all my life. I have tried a similar thing to you with regard to range, though as I'm a hunter, my range maximum was only sixty yards with a slight breeze. I found that even at that range, the wind was much more of a factor with the engine the pellet would have had behind it in the late fifty yard range. That said, though, l was surprised with the accuracy of your pellet and with the clout and force your pellet still hit its target. I'm not sure I could warrant owning a beautiful air rifle like that, when what I own already is so good and performs absolutely so well. It's a privilege to own such kit. From beginning with a BSA Meteor, having a cocking lever and ten shot magazine and the engineering skills to have all that manufactured and work properly makes my knees tremble. Just fantastic! It's just so nice to see beautiful kit and somebody having so much fun, seeing what they can achieve and what is possible, and doing no harm to anyone or anything. Thank you again, and good luck in everything you aim for and attempt. Best wishes.
I've got an early unregged ultimate sporter, it's completely stock action wise. Still got the anti tamper on from factory. It's an absolute tack driver. I ought to use it more tbh as its fantastically accurate.maybe I ought to do some videos with it at the longer ranges 🤔
@@tillysgunstocks Hello my friend, Thank you for taking the time to reply. I hope I'm not sounding like a complete numbty, I've never done field target. I don't know what you mean by stock action wise and what anti tamper means or the impact it would have. Thank you, Ian.
@@ianwoods1384 they have custom built wooden and tactical stocks on, but the actual rifle itself is completely untouched and as it left the factory.no tuning ,fettling or anything mechanically different on the rifle itself😉 bar a few cosmetic changes.
@tillysgunstocks Thank you, my friend, I hope I didn't insult your intelligence. Our interests and enthusiasm for our air rifles and journies come in many forms. Even though my father was a shooter, air rifles were forbidden for my brother and I. That's understandable, I suppose. Growing up, I noticed Theoben air rifles if I dared to look in dad's Airgun World while he was at work. Theoben was based in Cambridge and invented gas ram air rifles based on one of the gentleman's Suzuki motorcycle forks. Theoben made a range of gas ram air rifles, and their Theoben Rapid made my knees go weak, the beginning of pcp territory.Their barrel blueing, quality, solid workmanship were just fantastic. Of course, with great regret, Theoben ceased to trade in 2004. One of their models that caught my eye was the Theoben gas ram SLR (self loading rifle) 98 on Utube. I've never seen a stock like it. It's dark and made from Rosewood, absolutely gorgeous. Obviously, all Theoben rifles are second hand now. I don't fancy a second hand one, I'm quite particular. Theoben used to make the gas ram actions for the Weihrauch HW90K before they ceased. I'm going to purchase the Weihrauch HW90K, but look at it as though it was a Theoben SLR98 and attempt to make a thumbhole gunstock much like the beautiful Theoben SLR98. I've made replacement stocks for the nickel action HW97K and HW80K, which I humbly thought were dull, miserable , and lack lustre and not worthy of the actions they carried. That will be this winters project, as I hate winter, the wet and cold, and dark nights. Respect, my friend, and I wish you much more happy shooting!
Morning chap, any grouping inside 100mm is good going at that distance no matter what the rifle in sub 12 ft/lb, I know a chap who was shooting 96 MTR with a GRT lightning SE last weekend, he shoots stoeger bullpup, agt vixen long, FX pantsera, alpha wolf, RTI prophet, not an easy feat so hats off to you on the knock down, thoroughly enjoyed the review, cheers buddy, Jon, 👍 Hawkes Eye TV 👍😁
That is amazing shooting, with a sub 12 ft lb. The furthest I have shot with my HW110, is 55yds. It really is a great feeling when it actually hits the target, even at that range. 👍
Some good shooting there fella. I've managed 5pence groups @75yrd and tuppence @100yrd with my sub-12 AirArms S310 and Ultra carbine in .22 ... you need days with Unicorn conditions though... Which make your realise, that when a hunter says he knocked a rabbit @100 at night and you know the local conditions were not Unicorn....
Love your videos. Just a question, why dont you use a bubble level to avoid canting which is an unnecessary factor that could influence your tests and groups, specially that you mainly shoot on sandbags and not bipods that can be locked in same canting position. Tx
Hi mate,good question.. There's a few reasons actually that I don't use a spirit level on the rifles I've spent near 20 years competing in disciplines that don't allow them, so I've spent a lot of time honing my muscle memory and the setup of the rigs to reduce canting. If I'm shooting paper though,the targets or any cross hairs I've drawn on a board are leveled off, unfortunately you won't see that very easily as the GoPro is usually tucked off to one side to keep it out the firing line. I'm also now almost fully right eye dominant, wether this is a weird thing from making the swap from shooting lefty to right handed or simply the amount of time I spend looking through a scope or just an ageing thing I don't know...? But I can't easily see a level whilst looking through a scope. Even the ones fitted on the arm up front of the air cylinder..just can't see them well enough whilst looking through the scope it distracts me. I don't know if you've seen the second part of the 100yd series but the crowzilla turns out it's not a 45mm it's actually a 35mm 😆 I never actually checked 😂😂 I've got a vid planned for next year where I'll do a demonstration of the effects of cant, should be fun ...
Very good shooting! Now you are getting the bug for reading the wind on long range shots you should come and shoot F Class with us, you would do well I reckon 👍🏻👍🏻
Funny you say that..I've been looking at the f class stuff of late. I've done a fair bit of work with shooters in that sort of discipline and other more obscure stuff. Its something I plan to have a go at, plus I fancy building my own rig up. I'll also be doing some optimization on the xti and that will likely follow the lines of the f class stocks I've limited space right now and the sub12 air is really challenging,but as you can see from the video I like to push my limits 😉
Nice shooting. Now you need to have a pop at doing it with .22 adjustable scope mounts might be needed. Very tight for elevation JSB strikes again, I think weighing pellets is overrated these days if your using good kit to start with.
I have a reximex ixia in 22 . I shoot 18.13 jsb at 510-515fps and at 100 yards I can do sub 4inch groups all day long . If am being naughty and turn fps up to 880 I get sub 2 inch groups at 120 yards
I have mate. I can't judge how the lighter pellets will drift at the extended ranges. They get quite wild in the wind past 50yards at typical sub12 speeds. Interestingly they actually show much the same drops at the extended ranges as the heavies. The lighter pellets are shedding their speed fast and i just can't get a grip on them. 😉
Hi Paul, if you want a dedicated single shot target rifle you might want to consider an hft500, or a used ftp900 or ev2. All of them are capable of this sort of accuracy if we do our bit 😉
Challenge accepted, 100yds tx200hc :-)
No rush mate, wait for a decent day to get something mental for us to see 😉
Old ambassador Matt doesn't stand a chance😆
I’m with ya, Chilly.
My TX is being prepped as I type 😉
Hmm time to dust off the real under leaver I'm just of to get my HW77 out of the cabinet
Can’t wait to see your video 👍
I am looking forward to seeing that Gary…. You know what! I am going for it as well… Snowpeak P35 with H&N Pellets…
For a sub 12, this is remarkable performance!

Fantastic shooting
That is great shooting , Awesome
Well who of thought it! Excellent shooting matey and certainly looked like great fun. I must give it a try myself. Cheers, Woody 👍
Super video. I might have a go at this with the AA Pro Sport.
Do it mate. I don't think I could master a springer at that sort of range...
@@tillysgunstocks neither do I 😂
Great shooting!

Awesome shooting. Awesome gun. Wish I could do the same. I need some more practice.
Nice shooting 🎯👍
A pleasure to watch 😊
Where to go next mate? 120?
@@tillysgunstocks definitely 😁
Great shooting .well soon!😃
airarms performance shines through,but i think ill stick to what im capable of.well shot mate!
Any connection to the old tillys fishing and gun shop in crewe?
Watched a video of 100yd on here using hw100..... Nice shooting

S200 for good PCP on a budget, I have one so I'm biased.
Didn't stack 2 saw it miss on GoPro
Niceeee😉👍
Impresif, and i using 40 joule air rifle
Cheers mate, just 16joules here 😉
I've had some even better results since, there's a few more long range videos 😎
Cool! I made the same with a cheaper gun and good slugs on 100 meters! ;)
And sub12 the pellets wouldn’t hit with any force surprised it broke the paper
Lee watts kills birds over 100 yards with his sub 12 all the time! Guy just doesn’t miss!
