bfoosh06,
Thanks for the tip on the magazines...I noticed they do seem to bind sometimes when loading. And this is the first time seeing those pellets, pretty slick.
So i tried three types of ammo @ 100...
American Gunner (140gr), center
ELD-M (140 gr), on the left
ELD-M (147), right
I have never been good at producing tight groups...but I have to say that I am seeing more more inconsistency with the American gunner compared to the ELD.
Was really hoping the rifle liked the Gunner the best, as it relatively inexpensive!
Going to give them another try at another outing though, with sand bags & better focus on recoil control; looking back, remember more than a few shots with some jumping.
Rain storm ate a couple of my targets in the middle of my session, which had some worse looking groups with the Gunner, and I had to leave the range before taking a picture of the completed target below; which had some tighter shots with the ELD.
Shooting almost two boxes of each, slight trend that the 147 Gr shot the best. Is it just in my head, or will the 147 recoil more?
Also, was able to dial down the SLR gas block to position 5.
