Furrosious ferreter 499 Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 Out this morning to do some .20 pellet testing... very kindly donated by pav off here... thank you buddy. I originally was using HnN FTT, zero'd at 25 meters. I cleaned the barrel last night and done 6 shot groups this morning. Bisley pest was the worse at grouping, it couldnt of been me pulling the shots Weihrauch where 2nd worse JSB where next HnN ftt where still the better pellet, after the barrel clean and about 50 shots to re-lead the barrel quite happy with the grouping so much so i went out hunting with it, and got a rabbit only one i had inside comfortable shooting range.

The one 8,514 Posted July 8, 2019 Report Share Posted July 8, 2019 Aye its no use just buying cheap pellets when you see those results Quote Link to post
Jonjon79 13,358 Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 The test is good but, I think you need to get used to the rifle a bit more. Please don't take that as a negative comment - the rifle is good and, I reckon you can tighten those groups right up .......... Keep at it - it'll pay off Quote Link to post
Furrosious ferreter 499 Posted July 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 Yeah... shots taken from standing leant on car, rifle rested on a bsa cushion. Ive got springers hw57 77 97 but never owned a gas ram... different recoil and a break barrel and a short barrel at that too. Im confident the groups will pull in closer, like you say with practice. Got to get to know the gun and put some pellets through her. Not quite sure on the scope on her at the moment, its a hawke sidewinder 10x42 only spare scope i got at the minute. FF Quote Link to post
