This thing has had some lead through it since the last post regarding it's velocities so I figured it'd had some time to smooth out. The only shots there were smoke in the barrel (barely) were for the looser fitting pellets, but otherwise everything seemed good and worked in. Loose pellets dashed:

970
970
987
981
970
958-
964-
981
975
958-
970

Which including the loose pellets works out to 16.55 fp/e! Not bad for a B19 huh?

I hit a grackle with this beast a couple weeks ago and shot a little low (not used to an insanely flat trajectory), the thing didn't seem to know what to make of what had happened! It just kinda hopped and got up to fly behind the tree in my yard. When I went to spread some old bread and chips in the grass it was hiding behind the tree but flew off the second it saw me, obviously struggling. Given the light touch the pellet made, it probably would have opened it's head had it connected there!

So there you guys go. Not quite 17 fp/e but close enough for me! Accurate as all hell at 50 yards and enough speed to share. Now if those black birds would only stick around a little longer at a time...
