Here is the second sub inch group shot on Saturday
( of five groups shot in total, 4 in the morning and this one - the only group shot in the afternoon at 100 yd, why shoot another :<) ?). <br>
Yes, the outlier was the 5th shot but it wasn't pulled, it just went there. The first 4 shots measure just 0.30 inch 7.62 mm CTC.
Stats: JSB "Kings" .25 cal 25.4 gr shot at MV 880 fps for 44 fpe from the JB OZ 1 BSA .25 cal Hornet. Bushnell 6500 Elite 6.5-16 scope set at 16 X power.
Below: The Moffitt range with the target set at 100 yards (laser) and the BSA John Bowkett tuned Hornet with its replacement 23 inch .25 cal barrel.
Below: This one was the best of four groups shot in the morning.
I did a BC test using one chronograph set at 6 ft and then at 50 yards and the average of 10 shots at each range. The result was BC 0.039 at the altitude of 4050 ft which corrects to 0.034 at sea level. This is very good for such a short-for-diameter diabolo pellet.
A contributing factor no doubt is the consistency of the JB OZ 1 regulated Hornet and the consistency of the weight of these pellets. I shall post a 25 shot string some time later; shot while shooting five of 50 yard groups. I have never seen a better one. 25 shots with an extreme spread of just 6.2 feet per second.
We seem to have a new competitive player in the .25 cal stakes ... and I think, the first sub inch 100 yd 5 shot groups reported for the .25 calibre, which has often been put down as less accurate than other calibres. The 100 yd MOA has now been shot with all the small calibres .177, .20, .22 and .25.
Pellet design and quality and that of barrels and rifles, make the differences - not the calibre itself.
Hope you enjoyed sharing this exciting result with me ... Kind regards, Yrrah.

...... Kind regards, Harry.
..... and looking forward to the even heavier .25 JSBs to come 
..... Now that I know how these Kings shoot they won't be wasted on a lot of targets ... some ... not a lot. I'll have my order in to Lewis/ Rob
