mattwhite 1,993 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 After talking to VM the other day I am very tempted to try AA fields in 4.53 as both he and another source I read about online have had amazing results in the r10 using the bigger size. Apparently bsa barrels favour them so I got a fairly decent group today in one of the fields where it wasn't blowing too hard at 47 yards with the 4.52 AA fields and the 5p will cover the group completely but I'm sure I can get better than that. That 10 shot group was taken from sitting resting off the primos. Atb?? 6 Quote Link to post
mattwhite 1,993 Posted October 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Just to add, I had the magnification set at 4x as that's what it was on last time out? 2 Quote Link to post
just-A-snap 1,269 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) Sorry mattwhite but I cannot see anything wrong with that grouping. Forty Seven Yard even in today's mindset is a long way. Good luck getting where you want to be mate, I did not know .177 Air Arms came as 4.53 Diabolo Field Heavy?All the very best mate Edited October 31, 2017 by just-A-snap 1 Quote Link to post
Outback 1 26 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 What weight pellet do you use and is it a regulated rifle , I have fitted two Huma regs to my rifles and use heavy weight pellets and after finding what brand and size are tack drivers . With unreg pcp's the power curve is some times the fluctuation that causes the results on target . Try the other pellet size it's the cheapest option , but at the distance your shooting your getting a good group 1/2 " kill zone . 1 Quote Link to post

The one 8,514 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Give the other pellets a try if you want mate but i could life with grouping like that at 37 yards 1 Quote Link to post
mark williams 7,563 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Excellent grouping Matt - it does not get much better than that. ( try X 8 - 10 magnifications Matt) Mitch, how did the Express perform in your R10 ? 1 Quote Link to post
