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

See? Because he's given us some figures, we now know that termin8R can't shoot!

Seriously though that extra bit of info makes all the difference.

- wish I could have shot groups like that with my Meteor in the mid '60s - dammit - given my age away too,now!

I realise that some people dont think that this is a great idea but the idea is for people to be able to see what works best in ther gun, if people put down size of groups then much of the size of the group will be as a result of the shooters ability. Those of you who are very experienced will be getting muh tighter groups than people who have not been shooting long. Therefore if people put what groups best then that goes somewaay to eliminate the problem of shooters ability.

I have now finnished my GCSE's so I have more free time and if there are still people out there who think this is a good ide then please add to the list and I will keep adding them to the website.

Thanks,

Toby

Mate it's a nice idea and I didn't mean to rubbish the idea. It's just that if someone thinks Milbro Caledonians group well then all that tells us is that they don't know what grouping well is and it could lead to some poor bugger going out and buying some!

The thing about fidning the best pellet is that it has to be done from a bench or in some way supported so as to take as much of the a shooter out of the equation.

That given, providing group sizes is helpful and gives some frame of reference.
