underpowered brand new rifle :(

[robwelsh 354]

Just to add my mate also had the xl .22 and was running around 9 ft lb brand new

its just guna b trial an error suppose. i got a full tin of aa, ftt, an sper h got bwt 400 left. so by time iv fired alll those thru it + a tin of bis mags il hav a better sort of idea of groupings an all that.. plus it shud b worn in a bit more an be a bit more consistent after 2000pelets rather than the 400-500 its had so far.

At airgunning ranges the H points are not going to do anymore damage than that of a domed pellet

iv had my 177 bsa lightning xl about 5 weeks (had it ordeered in brand new) its seen about 400 pellets thru it so far an today i got my chrono. anyway air arms 10.5 ftlb super h point 9 ftlb wtf am i paying for???!!! majorly dissapointed and a bit miffed about what i shud do.. any advice lads?

If the rifle is accurate, then 10.5fpe is more than adequate for hunting.

The power is almost certain to creep up as the rifle beds in.

Good luck and try not to get hung up on the numbers,

I got mine chrono'd with rws when i first got it..it was 11.2 ..shot about five tins through it..chrono'd with bis superfields ..which have similar shape to h points,, try them...and it was 11.7 , rws were 8.3 and i think bis super were 8.5

first gut feeling i had was could the chrono be wrong?? mite get a new batttery for it n see if any diffrence.. then i also might go to gunshop n get them to chrono it [bANNED TEXT] theirs n see [bANNED TEXT] happens could be interesting lol..... but at the end of the day regardless of the numbers the fact is at close- medium range iv killed everything that iv pointed it at. if i wudnt have bought this chrono i wud hav neever doubted it lol.
