I have a result. 43gr 2208 (very mild) about 2700fps gave me 29mm @ 100mtrs. But I'm sure with a bit of adjustment they will do much better in the M70. A 25mm bar steel with two holes drilled....

It can be tricky block in poor weather but in good weather it's pretty cool. The landing site is high altitude and not very sheltered from big winds. A few trees around to give you some protection....
