Well so much for 100yds. I’d like to see that lower velocity hypothesis tested and compare your previous groups at 50yds with that slower velocity. For now guess you better like shooting those at 50 yards/930 FPS considering how many tins you’ve got on hand.

for us who are happy without much tinkering, it almost always ends up that the heavies shoot better first off.
in my .22 18.13’s group better than the 15.89’s. in my .25 the 33.95’s group better than the 25.39’s..
that may just be how it worked out for my guns,. but they are super accurrate and i’m not OCD enough to mess with it.

Chuck keep posting on the 50gr testing . I am curious to see how they perform. My .30 wildcat holds the group to .7"-.8" @ 848 FPS shooting the Hasan 44.75 for 103y.

The need for power, yes, it comes with just being a male, lol. We’ve had it bred into us since childbirth. Tools, cars, guns, you name it. More power is what we seek, all the time. What gets scary is the quest for power coupled with having the ability to be mechanically versed. That’s when things go kaboom!!
Just like my old 1993 dodge diesel. Has methanol injection along with propane injection, hopped up injectors and fully modded for breathing in a lot of air. Will I ever race it? Heck no! But it makes it fun to drive. ha!!

Chuck Isn't that velocity/pellet combination worth verifying?...Particularly if it's a simple reg adjustment. I mean you have a boat load of the suckers...Didn't Edosan shoot these at 950fps with decent results?

Chuck, you're lucky that the 50.1s shoot well in the STX 700mm barrel. They do not shoot as well as the 44.75 grain JSB in the ST 600mm barrel. (FX Bobcat Mk2). I've tried them and wanted them to shoot well, but they weren't as "predicable" in the wind, plus from a ST barrel, the difference in BC was only .004 or .005 (.042 versus .046 to .047). Not enough of a difference in real world shooting. I thought that maybe the 50.1s would work well in the .30 Vulcan 2 that I have, but they were horrible, shooting over 1" groups at 50 yards. I didn't even bother taking them to 75 or 100...

Chuck, It's amazing how 6 grains will change the whole program at your velocities. My Vortex pellets arrived but haven't shot them yet. I was thinking they would be lasers after seeing your 50 yard groups. Your 100 yard groups with 50 grain are impressive. Ray

Shamu,
They might work out for you. Edosan got them really tight at 100yds going 950fps.
At high power levels certainly harmonics will come into play. Could be just a slight increase or decrease in power makes the difference in groups size at longer distances.
