1066 Posted June 5 Report Share Posted June 5 Just thought you guys might be interested is these short clips of a pellet test in my Morini 162ie and my 5 shot Aeron B96 pistol. These are both shot at 10 metres with cheap Hobby pellets. 5 shot group for the Morini measures 8.4mm (Outside to outside). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The R10's did give smaller groups but as the Hobby pellets will still all score 10's on the non-decimal targets I consider them certainly good enough for me. I now know the frequent 7's are not the pistol or the pellets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the group with the premium match pellets, again 5 shots at 10M.. Nothing wrong with short barrels. Back in the olden days I did a fair bit of testing various .32 match pistols (Walther/Pardini/Fas etc.)Using a Ransom machine rest. These pistols only had about 4" barrels but, with the right load gave excellent accuracy at 25 yds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done lots of pistol shooting in the past , but I've never shot a decent air pistol , and didn't realise just how accurate they could be.

The LP 3 was a quality match pistol, international competition level when it was introduce in 1973 - should still be capable of a good performance. I have a Walther LP53, a spring target pistol but difficult to shoot well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
