Using my Theoben .20 cal. The steel disk is at 100 yards, a few sighter shots and then a full magazine shot at it. The big steel disk is at 130 yards and I shot a 10 shot group at it. The rusty steel sheet has several groups that were pretty good, and the little piece of paper has the best group of all, it’s 12 shots at 130 yards. I really like this rifle!

Shooting for fun at 100 and 130 yards.

The Steyr is very good, but not as good as the Theoben. After I shot the groups I took new targets up and tried shooting at paper but didn’t do as well. If there’s any wind at all it’s not even worth trying. It would be interesting to see what sorted pellets and a disciplined shooter who knows shooting could do with this rifle.

There are so few air guns that shoot 20 caliber pellets consistently that well. That’s a one of a kind. Nothing like an old Theoben to shoot small groups.
Nice!

Haven't seen the likes of 20 caliber groups like that since Crosman Premiers in 20 caliber and yes a Rapid MK1 FT with a Gold Medal trigger actually!

Thanks guys. I tried some of the older crosman premiers that came in the cardboard box. They were good, but the JSB 13.73 shoot the best. I tried the new heavies but at 860 they aren’t as accurate, for some reason there’s a flyer too often. Maybe they aren’t stable at that speed? Not sure why it’s doing that. And a huge part of the success with this rifle is the scope, the 130 yard target looks like it’s 25 yards away at 50x lol!
