Can I shoot these with .223 rifle rounds at 100 yards and still not phase it like a handgun round at 25 yards? Thanks

You'll put some serious "pock-marks" in it if you shoot it with the .223. Get a gong, they're more robust and can handle the higher velosity rifle rounds.

The literature I recieved with my RWS .22 34 Combo says its dangerous for 575 yds. My backyard abuts the highway and has a concrete wall for my backdrop. I knock out small concrete chips from 50 yards with 14.5 grain ammo. Killed 2 starlings from 15 yards, pellet went thru the first and still had enough power to kill the one behind it. I'm VERY cautious about where I aim and would not use it unless i know exactly what is down range.

I've used them at the 50 yd distance at my local gun club with my .22lr rifle with 4 x 20 scope. Works fine. I haven't tried them at any longer distances but even at 75 yds. should be ok.

I seriously doubt it unless the 22.250 can fire the .223 cartridge....otherwise no it won't. Calibre is different and I'm sure the cartridge is not the same. The laser works by being slipped into the chamber of the weapon where the laser will show out the barrel.

I shoot at about 100 yards with no problem except for an occasional hit to the mounting chains. I bring some tools and extra chains to hang the targets from in the event that I clip a chain. The target holds up well if you hang it according to their directions...

.20s have the best accuracy and don't jam. .12s will ruin the gun and .25s jam.

Hi David, I have tried all kinds (7 different types) of pellets from pointed tip, round, flat, all types with no consistency. All these pellets ranged from 7.8 grains to 14 grains. I cannot find a pellet that shoots well past 15 yards. Anything past 15 yards is unpredictable with groups no better than 12 inches. I gave up trying. Ive been shooting guns for over 30 years and this was just frustrating to say the least. Ive even tried 3 different scopes on the gun and still no luck. So Im pretty sure it wasnt me. Id look into buying another gun. Maybe this gun I received was just defective or something. Good luck.

If you have not physically zeroed this scope on your rifle ,you will need to. I wouldn't just bore sight it and trust 100% that it's going to be zeroed at 100yds with out putting rounds down range.

I fired ten pellets across my chronograph and they averaged 264.6 fps with a high of 280.3 fps and a low of 245.4 fps with Peak .22 wadcutters, a chinese brand, that average 13.9 grs. I've got the same gun in .177 cal. It avgeraged 302.6 fps, high 339.7, low 268.4, also with Peaks that average 8.6 grs. The guns are Industry Brand S2-1's made by the Shanghi Air Gun Factory. They're fairly accurate. The pellets that come with them make a good paper weight only. I took'em out of the wood stock and without disassembly any further, soaked them in gasoline over night and poured the gas thru them to get that brown packing grease out of them, and let them dry. Then sqiurted a little lube oil in them and cleaned the barrel before I tested them. Don't put petrolem based oil in the compression chamber. Good shooting, later! (Rosemary is my wife)

Hello...I would probably say they would not spin the targets all the way around. I've been using a benjamin pump air rifle with pellets and you have to hit it in the right spot for the target to go all the way around. Also have to be pretty close to the target. This target, I think, is mainly for .22 or .17HMR rounds. Happy shooting.

I have no idea.I got it sighted in at 50 in 3 shots with a lower power 55 grain handload and put it in the safe.Around here I have no chance of shooting beyond 100-150.

Reply to e-mail: It will work with the .222 Rem. just expect the accuracy to be off at least 10%. Your bullet's are averaging around 3000fps + - and the .223 3240 fps. When you zero, you might do it at 1-2 inches high. Your 22-250 is probably coming out about 3600 fps so you maybe an inch low at 100 yards will still put you pretty close to on target after 200 yards. I used to live in Maine and I don't recall may areas where a person can take a 400 yard shot. I hope this info helps you out?

Yes it is designed for specifically for a .223 round, once dialed to match target at 100 yards, scope is set for 5.56 or .223 velocity and drop. Each bubble below is for 100 yards further. Mine words great.

I have only used the scope out to 100 yds. and I am satisfied, but I think it would be hard to see .223 holes at further distances.

No problem at 50 yards. The .22 cal usually passes right through so you have to know your backstop. 100 yards starts to get pretty far out for real accuracy so hitting it well might be a trick.

You could but that won't get the targets to move. They are made from 1/4in steel. A .22 will get them to spin all the way around and a 1100fps pellet gun wil only make a sound and get about 3in of movement.
