I have tried all types of lead Jsb exact, express, rs, lead match h&n, meisterkugel, r10. so is it the barrel or myself who have a problem ?

    Thanks

    Try clean barrel today and see the crown…

    Thanks all
    Your first post mentions groups of 5/6cm. And did I read that right in the second post, with some of the flyers being 20/25cm apart?

    Check out all of the above suggestions AND.....you're not resting it on a hard surface are you? If you are to shoot rested try it on a soft, cushioned rest. Also try freehand. Either way employ a soft, but repeatable hold and pay particular attention to trigger control and follow through. Fingers crossed this helps.....

    I rest well on soft surface rest bag and rags. I will try to apply myself this evening during a new test after cleaning the barrel

    What cal is the pistol Mark, My .22 shoots ok but the .177s i have are absolute pigs. They are never going to be target quality, but some guys get decent results,
    I Am just a can basher myself, so they work for what i want them for. Col.

    Finally cleaned the barrel, it needed it because it was black… polishing the crown with 000 wool on dremel. first try with exact jsb not bad ... the best he seems to like hades because I have a group of 20/25 mm at 8 meters. With rest and the hand well relaxed not too tense.

    Thanks all for your contribution

    Great, that's sounding better.

    Now, once that barrel has been leaded-in, some further pellet testing and polishing your technique and really getting to know how the pistol wants handling, you might find those results improve even more.. Nice one.
