a little practice also.

Got the Sig ASP20 out today for chrony tests. Have been playing with my FWB 124, whish I love, but when I shot the Sig ASP20 .22, I had forgot how light I had adjusted the trigger to. So I fired 5 shots before the test. Results were pleasing. Have it sighted at 50 but wanted to see how much high I would be at 25, since I have a Martin house at that distance and the Starlings are due any time. It was 1.2 high and the 5 shots were good also. They measured .48 outside to outside. It looked like to me the ctc was about .3 but the outside was easier for me to be sure. Going to leave the setting as is and just use the mil marks for 25 yd. The .48 outside marking was measurement not temp.
AA 16 gr.
835.1 max
822.0 min
831.0 avg
4.2 std
24.5 energy
It don’t take much to make an old man happy.

I had 6 "odd ball" AA pellets that were 18.3 & 18.4. So I ran them across the chrony. Will try accuracy later because that is what I shoot for. The avg was 783 and energy shows 25.1 lbs. May not have the accuracy that I like but- will see. The new batch of AA 16 gr. seem to be ok. Did a 10 shot group @ 50 yds that measured .90, which is not that good but the first 4 shots took the target dot away so did the best I could. Actually had 7 of the 10 in about 1/2". Happy but not satisfied. Just mainly wanted to see about the 18 gr's. Now to plant some tomato's or is it tomatoe's? And the new batch of 16's chrony was 815.

I missed this post. I think the 18's are a little heavy for our guns. By the way, I decided to go ahead and send my Sig back to Sig. Very happy with the gun. Just was never satisfied with mid 22 ft/lbs when many ASP20 owners like yourself are seeing 23-24 ft/lbs. They will have my rifle on the 10th.

The difference in velocities could be caused by several things not related to the gun. Your elevation, barometric pressure and temperature are three things that come to mind. Plus I'm sure whatever small game you shoot will not be able to tell the difference if one pellet was going a little faster than another pellet.

I'm at 85 ft above sea level. Probably near the same as Tom Gaylord when he did his chrony testing of the .22 Sig ASP20. He averaged 1060fps with the Sig Crux pellet. I'm getting 1020fps. Even Travis at Airgun Depot chrony numbers seemed better than mine. Or at least the same. His testing was done at approximately 4500 ft above sea level. I know the squirrel or crow won't know the difference. But I do !

Thanks for posting your results. I'm seriously considering getting this gun! Did you get the synthetic or beech stock?

I wanted the synthetic stock but wasn't willing to wait. Some say the synthetic is out but supplies are limited. Others say they aren't out yet. I got the beech wood and am happy with it. Compared to the price of the HW guns the Sig is a good bang for the buck.
