Daystate X2 Sport - Target info

[plumbz]

Hi all....
Just thought i'd chuck some targets and info on here, if anyones interested in or owns or is thinking of owning a .22 Cal Daystate X2 Multi-shot.

I've put some brief info under the photographs... but it has'nt come out on here...?
(I think you'll have to check out my gallery photos for the comments... http://www.airgunforum.co.uk/forums/...hp?albumid=584)
but basically, I think the X2 is the dogs dangley bits!!

See what you think.....





I'm going to try out different ammo with it over the next week or two... see how it works out with the likes of Promethius etc...
One thing I DID notice is that the addition of a supplimentry silencer meant I had to re-zero my scope (to be expected, I know).. but the rifle was shooting approx 15mm lower (at 30 Mtrs) after fitting it.
Thats quite a drop in muzzle energy!!
Anyone have any thoughts on this or any comparisons or similar occurrences with their silenceer / rifle combination... I'd be interested in hearing from them.
I'll post some more data, as and when.

Cheers.
Tom.

Hi, got a .177 DS Harrier X, had it since they first came out 5 years ish I think. Found that AA .451 Field do the bizz for me. Never had any probs with gun it was an awesome bunny taker when new and still is. Only got 1 regret, I couldnt afford the .22 version as well & the way Daystate are going with prices well above the rate of inflation I cant see me ever owning a DS in .22.
Cheers.

Hi, nice shooting! I got an X2 in .177 - only used for hunting so the only target work i've done is when zeroing, I tried experimenting with different pellets at the weekend, but found there are none as consistent as AA field 4.51.
It is super accurate on the harris bi-pod, and stupidly quiet with the HW silencer. I've never fired her in anger with the silencer off so not sure how it would effect the groupings.
Cheers for the info,
Ben
