Today, I decided to do something a little different. Normally my springers get shot indoors, and all of them will shoot within 1/4" to 1/2" groups easily on the 18 yard range. According to the weather channel, the breeze was +/- 7 mph, but even though noticeable, I don't think it was quite that strong in the valley where my targets were positioned. So today, I decided to test them all at 50 yards. I don't shoot any springer FTT competitions, so I don't know what acceptable groups are from a springer at 50 yards - and I really don't care, as for my purposes, they shoot very tight (1/4" to 3/8" 10 shot groups are typical) inside where I primarily use them in the winter because the pcp accuracy gets boring.
At any rate, following are images of the rifles and the 50 yard tests, with a summary chart at the beginning, for those of you who have any interest in this matter. BTW, each rifle has been meticulously tuned and tested with a wide variety of available pellets. The pellets used here were the pellets each rifle preferred on the indoor range at 18 yards. All pellets were straight from the tin, with no sorting.
