Finally made it out to our S. Dakota house and have some time to play. Shot the Krait the other day for a bit and look forward to more time with it.
Today I shot the DW and hum?? Not sure what to think. I have decided that I don't "need" both rifles and wanted to figure out which one needs to go after this trip. This is really the first time I've shot both extensively and have been looking forward to it.
Both are 22's and look and function as new, at least i thought.
I'll try to post a picture of the target but unsure it will load as our internet hasn't been installed yet. So here's my first dilemma, clean chrony and barrel.
The read out on the DW says, in factory mode, shooting JSB 25.39, 880fps with reg about 119 - 123. Can't do 875fps, ok bump up to 135. Now it's doing 875 - 890. Ok, turn the fps down to 850. Now it's over 900!! Huh?? So not trusting the computer, pull out the FX chrony. Yep 914!! They read like 4-8 fps different with the DW always the lower one and I'm ok with that. Close enough for me.
So I start playing with speeds even went so far as to dump the air and start over from 85 bar on the reg. The rifle seems to want to shoot 844ish and 914ish. Really nothing in-between. Not yet anyhoo. Letting her charge overnight, wishful thinking? And maybe tomorrow afternoon I'll get another chance at it.
I've owned the rifle for two years and AOA updated the software etc then, gun shoots pellets great but I was hoping for the factory mode to work. And it may I'm not sure but does this sound like a computer thing or strictly "operator " error? I'm here for a couple of months so there's time to work it out.
