Seems like 30 good shots to me. Using chairgun pro, taking the highest of 987.8 and the last shot of 932.2, there is only a 1/2″ diffrence in POI at 75 yards.
Ive managed to get an AWESOME scope off evilbay. The only markings are 6-24×50 IR Etch
Im hopefully going shooting tomorow after I buy a new pump. Should be able to get some 50 yard groups
Also should be going lamping rabbits this friday with my brother who, annoyingly, has got a .17HMR. I will leave the longer range ones to him and the closer ones I should get a go at.
Pictures of the rifle and scope to come
