Braving the cold to do some shooting.
.22 Veteran Short from 240 bar down to 110, all 80 shots are from the same fill, consecutively shot.
55 yards.
Top row is JSB 13.43 @ 815fps.
Middle row is Hades 15.89 @ 760fps.
Bottom row is JSB18.13 @ 710fps.
All three pellets are right about 20fpe. 10 shots each group.
No
picking here, definitely some human error. I realize the groups aren't wonderful but I'm also shivering and shooting off a plastic table with a field target bum bag stuffed under the gun, so basically a sandbag that isn't full enough and constantly squishes too much, out away from the gun.
Pellets straight from the tin, finished off a couple tins that have been floating around a while so some misshapen skirts in the mix.
The Shorty isn't the easiest gun to benchrest.
Just used the turret to compensate for the greater drop from each pellet. No power adjustments were done during the 80shots.
Gun is completely stock, other than hammer spring adjustments. I've never even had it out of the stock. This brought the total up to 10, 500count tins through the gun. This little experiment makes me think I kinda want to fiddle with the trigger.
Sweet gun.
