Air Rifle Pest Control's video: Splitting A 177 Pellet With A Razor Blade - Air Rifle Pest Control

Practice, practice, practice! When the ranges are closed because of COVID-19, you're bored of target shooting... what other way is there to test your accuracy and aim? I saw another shooter demonstrate how accurate his kit was by shooting the blade of this hunting knife, with his .22 rifle and splitting the pellet in two at 11 yards. I thought... I can do that. Only, I wanted to split a .177 pellet, on a razor blade at 13 yards. I set everything up, locked myself and the kids away and... FIRST SHOT. I kid you not! FIRST SHOT! The .177 pellet left the rifle at 710 ft/s, hit the razor blade dead centre and was cut cleanly in two, hitting the paper and backstop board behind it. See this in action and see the setup I used.
