Gamo PT-85 v Umarex Beretta PX-4 Storm

[ejackyou]

Accuracy paramount, forget the PT 85 and the PX4
Go for one of the Umarex Pellet Pistols CP88 Comp, S&W 586/686, Desert Eagle, Government 1911
Or you could go with the CP1 in multi shot?

The fundemental problem with all these type of pistols is the revolving magazines.
Unlike the machined from solid mags in pcp air rifles, these things are cast mazak.
I set one up once to try to improve it, rotating it in a dividing head chuck on the milling machine with a view to reaming each hole but alas just could not get any one hole to index around to the next position without at least 0.05 to 0.1 mm of error hole to hole......and thus far too much error to put the reamer through centrally after aligning the first hole.
Then trigger pressures too high.

It would be wonderful if they came up with a single shot Ruger arrangement which broke open at the barrel for pellet seating direct into barrel and a trigger which did not then need to feel the weight of index a magazine.
They are what they are ....fun repeaters with a bit more accuracy than say a kids bb pistol.
