Minutes from Chickens to Rams

I just recently purchased a new HW97 and was wondering what how many minutes of angles between chickens to rams? Assuming a 8 gr .177 pellet. Just interested in knowing. Do you stay within one rotation of the turret?
Cheers Mike

Caseyboy, I use a Steyr 110 and I shoot chickens to turkeys on the same setting and go up 1 min to shoot rams.

One minute between chickens and rams? How fast is that Steyr putting them out? :D

I shoot a HW77K. Same rifle as the 97 but slightly longer barrel. I am usually 3 MOA above my Chicken setting. with a 8.4 grain .177 pellet. With a Leupold EFR 1/4 Minute clicks if the chicken is 0 the Ram will be 3 on the elevation dial. My 77 is unaltered from the factory. Have not chronoed it.

With 10.4 gr .177 pellets at 845fps using high Burris Signature Zee rings and BKL risers on both my Air Arms S510 and S400, I use the following settings

C 1.0
P 0.0
T 2.0
R 3.1
