My furthest kill with the Edgun so far

I shot a crow today with my Edgun at a distance of 97 yards. It was almost at the very tip of the farthest and tallest pine tree you see in this picture. I would have guessed 130 yards but my rangefinder says 97. It’s a good thing I was wrong or I would have missed because I guessed on my holdover based on my inaccurate guess and wouldn’t have compensated enough if I had known it was 97 yards instead of 130+. Pictures always make things look further so I zoomed the image in to make the picture look as close to what I actually saw when I took the shot. The best part was guessing the holdover and then watching the pellet impact through the scope and seeing the feathers scatter before the crow went down. I took the shot knowing that if I had missed, the pellet wouldn’t have landed in a populated area because I live near the river and I was shooting in that direction.

I took the Edgun out to my buddy’s property later in the day and checked my holdover at 97 yards and it was right on! I had guessed correct earlier in the day but only because I was wrong about the initial distance. I really wish I had a video of this one or some pictures of the crow as proof but I just went back in my house after the shot and closed my sliding door. I just love these far shots. I cannot wait until my Airwolf MCT arrives and I can see what she can do while accurately shooting 40 ft/lbs. My Edgun shoots around 31.5 ft/lbs using JSB 18.1 grain pellets. Looks like I’m going to have to buy some Kodiaks for the MCT and I also want to see how she shoots with the JSB Monsters.
