    Ah, that might be it then. It could be me. I too only have limited experience of a couple of decades, and I'm probably too fussy myself, never mind the pellets. I tend to blame the equipment if I can't get 1" groups at 50 yds. The idea of trying different pellets is a new one on me. I really must try it sometime.

    Good post steve,yes indeed pellet selection does play a part in
    the smk 19's performance, some will do better with one,and another will do rubbish with the same (iv'e had 3 smk 19's )it's these tips that can defeat even
    the old hands amongst us
    a bad work man always blames his tools,
    squeeze it,don't pull it ken,
    go figure.
    I didn't think this thread would do as well as it has done.

    You may be right, but it's my tool, and I'll pull it as much as I like, and squeeze it as often as I like.

    I think all these little known tips are great. It makes coming on here so worthwhile.

    Very sorry, but my sarcasm comes from years of experience. There are those who listen and learn from experience, and then there are others who know better.

    Why bother deleting your last little spat. You're probably right in what you said. It's just that Chinese guns really do my chump in. They bring the worst out in me. I just find it confusing and disheartening when someone comparatively new to the game extols the virtues of what are possibly the worst guns in the world, due to the fact they have never experienced anything better, and then refuse to listen to people who have had greater experience of trying to polish one of these turds. Anyway, advice is for those who take it.
