: 350 Chrony numbers
: daved October 14, 2006, 02:24:20 PM
Made time today to run the new pellets over the chrony, as well as retesting the ones I shot last week.  The big surprise was the retest of the pellets I shot before.  I would have expected them to all shoot a little faster across the board, as the rifle should be smoothing out.  Instead, it's a mixed bag.  Not sure what it all means.  And of course, none of this has any bearing on accuracy.  It's also interesting to note that the 2 lightest pellets I have are producing more power than the heavys.  The Predators made a good showing, I'm really looking forward to see what happens when I get the new scope.  The FTS's are a weird pellet in .22, very short and chunky.  Even though the numbers look pretty good, they haven't shot well for me so far.  Big surprise, the Exacts I have are 5.52 mm, and don't seem to do well in this gun.  I'll need to retry these in a 5.50, if I can get it.

Guess that's about it.  Oh, top two grids are todays test, bottom is a reprint of last week.  Later.

Hey Dave,

Well, I finally found someone who had the .22 Predators in stock and placed my order about an hour ago.  Delivery should be within the next week.  As soon as I get them I'll see how they shoot from my 350 and let you know the results.
