It's new and all but can it shoot !

[Neophyte]

Well, I would have to say it does ok. I shot these this morning with my new .177 Disco after polishing the sear and trigger link.

2000 psi, 7.0 gr RWS Diabolo Basic, Scope at 1.5X

i don't know how to post pics here, but i was shooting one hole groups last night with my .177. five shot groops at 10 yards.

[waunderin]

wow, learn something new every day. these discos are pretty cool and very accurate. the eight groops were shot with crossman domed heavies, 10.5 gr. i'm still testing different pellets, but don't believe i will find any that are any more accurate. the gun was sent to mac1, and he did a good job on it. when all the pellets go thru the same hole, it is very satisfying, but seems like a waste of four of the pellets. pumped the gun to 2200, shot the 40 shots and had 1300 still in the gun.  john

have you tried the rws supperdomes in my 22cal they work the best! I  have been looking to try the gamo hunters since they look alot alike but have yet to find them in 22cal.

[DanoInTx]

Hey Garry,

They have the Gamos in .22 at Cabelas, I bought some a month or so ago.  Gets confusing at that place because they have pellets in two different places on the shelf, like they segragate them or something.  Hope to see you in April!

[Neophyte]

Not yet though I did purchase some. I am waiting for warmer weather and the time to get set up properly for shooting over the Chrony into my, (yet to constructed) silent pellet trap.. To date I have aquired the following pellets for testing.

Benjamin .177 Caliber Discovery Hollowpoint,  10.5 Grains    
Crosman .177 Caliber Premier Super Match,  7.9 Grains      
Crosman .177 Caliber Premier Hollow Points,  7.9 Grains
Crosman .177 Caliber Pointed Premium Grade,  7.9 Grains
RWS .177 Caliber Diablo Pellets,  7.0 Grains    
RWS .177 Caliber Superdome Pellets,  8.3 Grains
Beeman Kodiak Extra Heavy Pointed .177 Cal, 10.6 Grains
Beeman Crow-Magnum Hollowpoint .177 Cal,  8.80 Grains
