jameswrx Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 You sure your chrono isn't stuck haha Seriously though, I find that hard to believe. The second part about all 4 not going over when running 11.6/7 After doing lots of chrono testing I was amazed at what different weight pellets do. I've got 4 PCP guns.

Sometimes the most efficient pellet is not the heaviest, all to do with design, casting, sometimes even different moulds of the same pellet will produce quite sharp rises or falls in ft lb!

Pellet weight is only one factor in muzzle energy. Bis mags in my rifle put out less than AA field. I did a test with an ebay test pack selection and the muzzle energy varied enormously and there was little correlation with weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
