I have been using basically only one pellet in my 25 caliber FX Crown since a year ago when I bought it. The pellet being the JSB exact king diabolo at 25.39 grains. The accuracy that I am getting I shouldnt even consider anything else. But as everyone else would do I would like to experiment with a couple others. First of all would be the GTO 25 caliber pellet. Secondly would be a slug of some sort. There is probably more than 15 different slugs out there to try. Seems like those in the HN line differ by basically their weight.
I am really a novice to the airgun industry. After purchasing my FX Crown I feel that this rifle is one of the top of the line rifles. But I no way want to take the rifle apart and mess with adjusting the regulator to obtain the most accuracy from one pellet to another. I know that by doing this and doing it wrong, that it's possible to really do harm to the rifle. After dropping my life savings into this rifle, this is something I want to avoid. I probably will not get good accuracy out of the GTO pellets, but need to at least try them. As far as slugs go, I will start out with a weight that is close to the 25.4 Diabolo's that I am using now. But I would like to try a heavy pellet also. Something like the H-N heavy which is around 44 grains. My regulator is set from the factory,(Utah Airguns), at around 160 BAR. I also have the 700MM barrel for this rifle, and may try reaching out to 100 yards sometime.
So my question is this...By not tuning my rifle to the weight of the pellet, do I have to stay with a pellet around 25 grains, or can I possibly try others and have any luck without having to readjust my rifle? Can I possibly cause damage to my rifle by using lets say a 44 grain pellet when my rifle is set up for 25's?
Thank you
