    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

    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)

    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!

    @ DJP: no problem, good that it is useful!

    I have a theory that with my Theoben barrel, the bore is slightly larger than that of say Air Arms or BSA.

    Anyone know the head size of Bisley Magnums?

    bisley mags

    Dont know the head size but they are not tight in the barrel of any gun Ive owned, my HW80 does not seem to keen on them, you really need full power for bis mags in 22 but they seem better in 177
