Interesting... Mine prefers the 10.3 grain JSB Exact Heavy pellets, laser beam accurate at 925 to 930 fps...

Thanks. Mine gets only about 800fps with a heavy pellet. Did you somehow increase the velocity?

Nope. Mine came shooting 930 fps with the 10.3 grain pellets on High Power, 910 fps on Medium, and 810 fps on Low. Are you thinking of the heavier 13 or 16 grain pellets? I'm talking the 10.3 grain JSBs, that have the barrel diabolo shape, not the Monsters or Beasts.

Sounds like your power adjuster is stuck on Low... I think it just moves a cover over the transfer port to reduce the amount of air flow. If it was "stuck" on low that is what you would see, the 810 fps approximately... Does you velocity change when you adjust the power selector?

Yes, velocity changes when I select medium or low. I put a spacer behind the hammer spring. I just shot one ragged hole at 30 yards with the JSB 10.3s in a light wind.

Can’t argue with that. I routinely shoot over 700 with my .177 Bantam in 25M benchrest. Very accurate. A month ago I had a ground squirrel head shot at 63 yards.
