thanks. First air rifle in 25 years. 2 months old and I must have 500 rounds thru it.
Condor looks to be the next choice.
Mild obsession.... |

Keep hanging out here and you'll get over the "mild" part.  |

| Nice shot, were you supported at all? The XL 1100 is a beast, I wouldn't trade mine for anything. Just seeing pics of the gun or it's victims brings a wild urge to shoot the gun! |

Thank you. I was supported, table with bags. This gun is a beast!
Trigger mod is a must! I even went as far as to polish and balance the piston.
And thinking about: porting the chamber and shorting the barrel.?.
P.S. This morning.

| Very nice kills. I hope you plan on broadening your target selection with some larger game. |

The head wound looks like the exit wound. Did you shoot him in the a$$ and it went straight through?
I don't think you need 1000 fps for that size animal, hehehe.
It will be good for the 'coons though. Domed pellet right behind the ear will do the trick, even on a 40 pounder. |

Looks to me like the pellet went up through the gut,and came out the side of the head.....I think they call that a Texas head shot....
If that head wound is an entrance,the pellet did it's job.....and then some..  |
