.177 Crosman -vs- Daisy -vs- Gamo
« on: July 05, 2009, 05:02:33 PM »
I'll let the pics do the talking.

All shots 10 yards.
All pellets .177
5 shot groups
Rifle: Quest 1000

I was surprised at how far off the Daisy PM Pointed group was.  I was shooting at
the middle target and almost hit the bull on the lower left target.

Crosman have got to be the dirtiest pellets around!

Those really look like dirty pellets. I wonder what that is? Maybe just mold residue? The master points looked like they grouped pretty well, except I notice some funny paper tears. Maybe the paper was just a little to floopy. Maybe try some cardboard backing. Was that with a scope or open sights? Nice to see you taking the time to find out what works best. If more guys did that they would most likely be much happier with their rifles. Good job. Gapmaster :)

nice job on the tests.  Every gun is different!  With your Quest you should see much tighter groups then that at ten yards.  Are you shooting off a rest?  Also how many rounds have gone through that gun?  With my G1 i'll throw ten rounds with CPHP through a dime sized group.   different pellets group better in different guns, but flat nosed(match) will tend to be more accurate at short distances.
