    I did what Jimmie did and went straight to pellets in my Sheridan -seems the obvious choice.

    But I wonder if this is a bb pistol with pellets added for higher sales.

    My Sheridan dislikes some pellets to the point where it won't fire them- eg fine with Gecos no good with H&N.
    Probably a size/shape thing I guess.

    So next time at the range I'm shooting bbs for comparison.
    I already know that fps appears higher with bbs.

    As far as pellet/bb accuracy in Umarex Peacemakers is concerned I have bb versions that are more accurate than pellet versions.
    And these guns are not really going to be used as target pistols are they?

    Agree 100% with everything as quoted (and am gambling speculatively, that the same will ring true with my Schofield when it arrives, too).

    If I can get hold of a Schofield I would be happy to write an article on it for you.
