Hi
I spent a few hours sunday trying to get the Career shooting
at longer distances..set a target up at 50m...shots were alover the place
so I desided to remove the silencer...WOW its a diffrent gun...
And it now shoots Gamo TS22s which are the only medium weight
pellet I have...Dident want to use 28 or 32 g as I want to use it on the
900fps setting for a higher shot count..."got some H&N 21g on order"
after a bit of playing with the scope I was getting some OK groups for
50metres of the bipod....
So later that day "5pm" I desided to go up the hills for a bunny hunt....
After a 10 mintue drive i was at my useal hunting area....92 sq miles of
bunnys...The only prob with this area is there is no road access in there
so yer only end up hunting the edges of the area...
so I climb up to the top of the first ridge then down into the valley where a small stream runs though the bottom...walking along the flatish areas at the side of the stream..rabbits were running everywhere...I came across a few near a stand of rush bushs...Lay on the ground Career on the bipod
put the centre mill dot on the closest ones head 40m?.... POP he drops
& all the others legg it for cover "no silencer"...
Walking up to the head of the valley I manage to drop another 2 with
of the shoulder shots...20 to 30m shots...
by this time I was at the head of the valley so I walked/climbed up to the ridge..On the way up I came across a flatish area with a few hoppers..
so another 40 odd metre shot of the bipod and another drops...Had 2 in the pack so I left it there for the hawks to feast on....Finaly made it to the ridge..So I walkalong the top back around the valley I had just walked up..
Got another hopping around the entrance of his warran...left him there aswell...carryed on along the ridge till I got back to the ute...it was gettin quite dark by this time.....
Pete
Career /Gamo TS22s..50m / 6 shots per group

Say, what kinda ute you got? Can't recall you ever posting a pic of that? 
Back to the gun, I have been shooting those a bit at shoots, they're not bad once you find the right pellets, and the barrels are pretty good. Some people up the cal on these, and then use the barrel for something else, like for instance a QB 78 on HPA and they got some good results. |
