As the title says. This is in my 880. They fit fine in my Gamo springer. All my Crosman pellets fit fine in my 880. Anyone else had this issue? I finally decided to step up and buy some better pellets, but this is discouraging. I think my probe could possibly be uncentered to the breech, but wanted to ask here before I go tearing into her again.

Pellet problems. Please help. AA 4.52 Heavies and JSB (?size) won't feed.

Try lubing with Lemon Pledge. Have a wooden dowel rod in case it gets stuck and doesn't fire so you can tap it back out From the front of the barrel muzzle loader style if that happens.

My barrel wasn't fully seated. I pressed it back in .125 or a little more. Put some super glue to seal and another wrap of tape at the tip of the barrel to seat and secure everything in the front sight block. These were my test results after.
The white was the first go round immediately after repair. Bottom middle.... those flats will group. If I cherry picked them I bet they'd all group like that.

There appear to be three points the barrel seats on for press fit. It's kinda shabby. Before it shot all the way out of where it presses in that breech block. There's a reason the gun is $35 lol.
Over all I love this pos though. Lol. Im at about 9500 pellets through her in less than 6 months and we have quite the relstionship.

Looks like your barrel still isn't secured firmly enough. Groups should be tighter. I would use epoxy.

I somewhat agree. But how would the jsb and air arms group so tight? I'm thinking about just dropping another $35. This gun is lots of fun but has issues I believe. I also have a gamo I'd rather scope though. Decisions decisions... I'd also like to buy a Ati Nova Freedeom pumper pcp (or Seneca Aspen), which I will in due time probably. They had some seal issues at first that scare me.

Check if those are $100 for the fix you owns being sold as is like the $100 Nova Liberty (Avenger's daddy) if you are mechanically inclined to save money.

Good idea. I'm a 15 year machinist / protoyper / model maker. I should be able to handle it.
