how many pellets per shoot?
« on: September 14, 2006, 08:17:09 AM »

Is there some limit to the number of shots that you should consider in a marathon shooting spree concerning possible damage to the gun?

I think I can do 150-200 an hour, just pluggin'away, trying to find my groove.



I go thru a lot of metal chickenswith my supreme at 25 yards., but am I burning something out?



Maybe seals aren't getting enough lubrication, or something is overheating, or who knows what.



I don't think there should be a problem, but just asking around to maybe find out something I don't know yet

I have never seen any information about that before but it does not mean someone has not done there homework with it.

I shoot paper until I am tired but I have 13 rifles and two pistolas and generally shoot at least two or there rifles in a session on targets. I judge by how big my visa bill is at the end of the month...:) I buy one heck of allot of pellets. Just bought a $100.00 of pellets this week.

Well anyhow Ed, my rifles are still working fine and I am getting ready to put them all through the chrony again to see where they stand. All have had a super turbo tune with trigger except the one QB and my Samatra. They still feel strong and and hold tight groups with the right pellets.

Ok, I guess my fingers will burn out first.



I'm still startin' out, I do about $100 a month, if it stops raining :)
