Probably accurate enough for half that distance.

First BB gun was daisy pal in 4rth grade. Got a 10 pumper a year later, and followed with another every couple years when they wore out. Stopped with airguns when I hit 18. The house I bought in 2000 had space to shoot powderburners until houses got built around me. A few years back, my wife...

I think the average better accuracy of underlevers comes from the TX200 and HW97 having more weight and modest power output. As long as there is no lockup issues with a breakbarrel, it should be just as accurate, but less weight means more recoil. I only had one RWS48, but even after a tune...

It was almost cold here in Fort Worth yesterday. 80 degrees had me closing up my jacket on the ride in to work at 4 am. Got rained on a bit on the ride home. Headed out for a couple hour mountain bike ride since it was only 92 after getting home from work.

Normally they like Crosman 7.9 premiers, but those seem to have gone away. The next I would try, are H+N ftt and JSB Exact 8.4. Is this a new or old 1377? Crosman barrels used to be pretty accurate, but sometimes respond good to a redneck recrown.

The Republic of Tejas.

At Caprock Canyon State park they warn you to watch for rattlesnakes around camps, because they get the rattles bit off by prairie dogs.

Shoot it, does it buzz or twang more than you think it should? Issues with seals will show an extreme spread of velocities on the chronograph. Can't go by velocity alone, the previous owner may have tuned it with a 12 ft lb kit.

13 to 14 grain pellets are going to be your best choice. Those, at 20 ft lb, have about the same trajectory as the 12 ft lb wftf shooters with .177. If you stick with the game, you will be in search of a .177 rifle sooner than later.

40 in/lbs on the big trigger guard screw. 20 in/lbs on the others.

Crosman Premier and JSB 7.87 is what I would start with after skimming Tom Galord's review.

Consistency is important. Pellet to barrel fit is important. Going to another pellet because it is a "match" pellet may or may not be an improvement on what you have. Maybe it is time for you to spend some time sorting your 18 gr pellets with a Pelletgauge.

The last attempt was the Sig ASP20. It had a new attempt at consistent lockup for a break barrel. The only high quality gas ram that was made in the U.S. Didn't sell in enough numbers to be worth making, so...

Loctite everything on a springer and torque to specs with a proper torque wrench. Unfourtunately, what you are seeing can be fairly normal hold sensitivity for a cheap springer.

To get a good start on scope setup, you want to zero at the apex of the pellet trajectory. That will be 25 to 27 yards for a 20 ft lb .22 shooting Hand N FTTs. From there you holdover for both closer and further targets. work out where in your mil dots you have to hold from 9 to 60 yards...

Start with the Discovery. You will find its limits fairly quickly, but don't go down the rabbit hole trying to mod it. You will want a better .177 rifle soon. Start learning to range targets and work up a trajectory chart for it.

Get the R9

Break barrels are too weak to be much use in .25. A good .22 will be good to 30 yards if you can get the distance that close.

We have had a match director do that twice. He put the ranges on the back of the scorecards at a club match as an experiment. Didn't cause any change in anyones scores from their average.
