    umm 3.53 will be a bit small unless you use the 0.14" barrel liner

    The pellet comes out a rifled barrel spinning at something like 35-40,000 rpm so it will still be spinning long after the pellet hits the target or the ground

    My best groupings (I count an excellent grouping as a ragged hole at 40 yards for PCP and 25-30 yards for springer)

    HW100K .177
    Best: Weihrauch Magnums @ 10.2 grains (no idea head size)
    Good: Weihrauch Select @ 8.4 grains (no idea head size)

    HW95 .22
    Best: H&N FTT @ 5.52
    Very Good: AA Field @ 5.52

    Rapid Mk2 FAC (32ft/lbs) .22
    Best: Bisley Magnums (no idea head size)
    Very Good: Weihrauch Magnums (no idea head size)
    Truly, Terribly Awful: AA Field @ 5.52

    Hw80k

    Recent HW80K after many years break from shooting and it seems very fussy with poi changing from over 1.5" at 30yds at not always in elevation! RWS superfields are an inch the the right of HN FTT?

    Sadly the best pellets I have are an old tin of Wasps before the change!
