BrowningUltra Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 Hi Guys Just bought my first PCP for the purpose of ratting. I was given a tin of JSB exacts in with the deal but they just don't seem to group very well. (Odd flyers at 20 yards and won't group to more than 50p). I'm shooting off a rest and have had a lot of experience with air rifles in the past so I'm pretty sure that it's not me for the most part 😂. Does anyone have/have had one of these rifles to point me in the right direction? Or is it just a bad rifle and I should have spent more? For the sake of shooting rats at 15 yards it will be okay but if I can find something that groups a little better then it might instil some confidence. TIA Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA Steve I can only advise what works very well in my hatsan at4410 .177, it thrives on H&N FTTS . think they are 8 and a bit grains without looking.

Ultrastu Posted August 3, 2023 Report Share Posted August 3, 2023 I've only ever shot 2 hatsan at 44 s And I couldn't find a pellet that the gun liked at all .though to be fair I don't think I tried everything . I'd look at Bisley magnums if your gun doesn't like jsb s . They often work when others don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
