I just installed a new bulk valve that I made and a 20” barrel in my 2250B.
I put it to the test with a 60 yard Kill Shot!
I took out this squirrel in the tree below on the neighbor’s property from my porch with the rail as a rest…
It was D.O.A. before I could walk to it…
All I can say is “Damn” I need a crony…

| Helluva shot. Did you have to aim high to account for the drop or was it sighted in at that range? |

A little depth prespective on the back side of my property...
My target range is set at 40 Yards...
Mind you... that anything over 45 yards... is inside the neighbor's property... The house is vacant... Another victim of the economy...

| I like that set up. You get some good shots and shooting lanes into distant trees, but you don't have a bunch of debris in front of it. Makes me jealous because my Talon could reach out right to 60 yards and still be that potent, but I may never find myself shooting in a place like yours. I can't even shoot at my house anymore really. |

We only have .75 of an acre... but I love being up here in the hills... We got lucky when we bought this house 7 years ago.
We are surrounded by places to hike and go shooting... Once in a while I will go down by the creek and plink... Or I will drive over to the XXX bridge and hike up the Amreican River... I also have hiked up the Rubicon...
To think... I was having fun snyping tree lizzards in the rocks by the well house all summer... I only dare do that with the 1077's now... this 2250B-east is too powerful to shoot that close...
You know... that when I bought the 2250B new just a few short months ago... It would only go through one side of a tin can at 10 yards... Now... Shreads them at 40+.
I can't say it enough... I got to get a crony... |

Get one. They are under $100. You've been tuning in the
dark too long. |
