[QUOTE="Master Carper, post: 2172804, member: 15527"] 0311, well......., it went about like what I thought it would... I started with 3 plastic jugs full of water... [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i193.photobucket.com_albums_z132_HonkerHunter_photos_44_20magnum_20jugs_003_zpsb2c18d6d.jpg[/IMG] I set the jugs out at 100 yds., 150 yds. and 200 yds.. The jug at 200 yds is hanging on the edge of a steel post, to keep it up off the ground so I can see it... [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i193.photobucket.com_albums_z132_HonkerHunter_photos_44_20magnum_20jugs_008_zpsef3b807a.jpg[/IMG] This is the factory ammo that I used... [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i193.photobucket.com_albums_z132_HonkerHunter_photos_44_20magnum_20jugs_014_zps05500152.jpg[/IMG] 100 yd. target / 1-shot 1-kill... [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i193.photobucket.com_albums_z132_HonkerHunter_photos_44_20magnum_20jugs_027_zps746b9c6d.jpg[/IMG] 150 yd. target / 1-shot 1-kill... [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i193.photobucket.com_albums_z132_HonkerHunter_photos_44_20magnum_20jugs_029_zps08e887d1.jpg[/IMG] 200 yd. target / hit on second shot... [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i193.photobucket.com_albums_z132_HonkerHunter_photos_44_20magnum_20jugs_031_zps8cffbcfe.jpg[/IMG] Yes, it can be done... [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i193.photobucket.com_albums_z132_HonkerHunter_photos_44_20magnum_20jugs_019_zps4b7d94ea.jpg[/IMG] I did not adjust for windage, with a light cross wind and that's the reason all shots were to the right... I had no specific aiming spot on the jugs and held center mass... I already had the scope sighted in at 100 yds. and dialed-in for the 150 and 200 yd. shots... Understand too, that I have been hunting with a handgun since the 70's and this is not anything new to me. I'm not the best shot around and don't claim to be. I know lot's of people a LOT better than me. Me personally though, I just try to be the best that "I" can be and take pride in what I am able to do... If this was my gun, instead of a customers, I would invite you to come over and let you shoot it but, since it does not belong to me, I cannot do that. I wish it was mine though, cause I'm getting really attached to it... :thumbup3: So....... If anyone ever asks if a gallon jug full of water can be shot and exploded at 150 yds., tell them that it CAN be done quite easily with the proper set-up.... DAVID [/QUOTE]
