I have seen this one around the past few days but have not had a shot on him,Then this afternoon I see him moving out around 35+ yards ,that's pushing it but I got the 850 and tried to guess my aim as its such a small target. I thought I had a good center mass shot lined up but he moved or I did and when I let the CPHP go it hit just in front of his rear leg , knocked him back and he crawled  about 6in and then his tail was doing circles, as  I got up to him it went flat then he was gone.

Good shooting Dave!  I know 35yds is my limit when it comes to these little critters.  

The CPHP is the most accurate pellet in my 850 too.  More accurate than the CP (brown box), Superdome and FTS.  Not by a lot, but still slightly better than the others  I got some new 14.3gr JSB Express pellets recently for the 350, and I think I will try them on the 850 this weekend just to see.  They are twice the price so I am hoping they will perform accordingly and maybe slightly better than the CPHP, although the CPHP is dead on at 25yds.  Not sure it can get much better.  I am looking for a little better 30-40yd accuracy with the JSB's.  I am crossing my fingers.
