The pellet thread!

[harvey_s]

Sorry to piss on your chips but what one person thinks is acceptable performance is another person's 'shotgun grouping'.

like the guy said right at the start - it's just meant to narrow the choice a bit

Brilliant idea !

AA S400 .177 -- JSB exacts 4.52

[pieter]

Falcon FN19 .177 everything apart from piledrivers

penetrators 9.5 excellent 15grainers ok
jsb 4.52 excellent
AA 4.51 and 4.52 excellent
bismags 10.6 excellent
wasps 7.2 [1997 vintage] very good
and webley mossies 4.52 excellent

shot three groups at 40yds today using bismags and the tightest group was a single hole not wider than a .22 pellets lengthways [ very pleased ] although my girlfriend doesnt seem as enthusiatic

See...I told you so.

What does 'like' mean?

What groups are you getting at what ranges?

This thread is meaningless without some frame of reference.

Weihrauch HW100k - .177 - Webley Mosquito Express, Daystate Select FT 4.53 (funnily enough, this rifle isn't so keen on JSB Exacts 4.51, 2 or 3!)
Logun Solo - .177 - JSB Exact 4.53

Both rifles are non-FAC and, mainly for Weevie's benefit , using the above pellets I get 25-30mm groups at a lasered 50yd range (must try harder! ).

Cheers,
Doug

Recently found that my .22 Gamo CF-30 loves Air Arms Fields in 5.52mm.

You need head size 4.51...2...3.y riflemloves 4.52 but hates 4.51

Without head size your much further forward imho.

If your into precision shooting such as bench/HFT & FT...die number helps.

I take my hat off to you but I think your making sawdust snowballs.
