I have had difficulty at times getting good groups with my Beeman RS2. I thought that it was extremely hold sensitive, but it turns out that that pellet choice has a huge effect on accuracy. Mine will do < 1/2" groups at 25 yds and sometimes even put them in the same hole as long as I feed it Crosman Premiers or RWS Superdomes. Using those two its actually fairly insensitive to hold, but if I use anything else (at least anything I've tried so far) I get patterns instead of groups. Its weird, like shooting two different guns. Its very accurate with pellets it likes and absolutely terrible with anything else.
Anything worth doing almost always requires more effort than its worth.

I tried holding the B26 firmly today... It punches a nice-sized hole in a coffee can that way. The TF-89 still does "one-holes" with less effort. When I get the chance tomorrow morn I'll snap a photo of the sacrificial coffee can.

I still misjudged the trigger on the first shot... again... I either adjust it so it's firm, and the spring pressure ramps up uncomfortably, or I set it for soft, and the darn thing's to soft. I'm going to have to read the tutorial on the "Rekord" tirgger I suppose.
