villaman 9,977 Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 What 8,4gr pellets did they use , because in mine JSB exacts 4.52 were reading low about 10.8 but Weihrauch ft which are made by JSB reading 11.30-11.45 which is spot on the for that weight pellet . JSB heavies reading 11.5-11.6 Did they clean the barrel first ,that makes a difference on a new gun 2 Quote Link to post

JSB heavies reading 11.5-11.6 Did they clean the barrel first ,that makes a difference on a new gun Yep, that barrel clean is an absolute must, via pull through. Then put your preferred pellet through after further barrel cleans getting to this stage. Once the preferred pellet is found, put at least a 500 tin through her. You will find the accuracy spot on and the muzzle energy will be rising, so expect a further 0.5 ft/lb on to the original 10.8 = a final 11.3 ft/lb +. Do remember Phil, accuracy is the bit that matters most and not 0.5 ft/lbs. atb Mark. 2 Quote Link to post
Phill-W68 547 Posted January 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 Apparently those two hw110s didn't come direct from hull cartridge as been promised by my rfd, they came from range-right????, Not sure quite what happened but I sent hull cartridge a msg explaining that I wasn't happy with the service,i got a reply saying the two guns at my rfd didn't come direct from them, and they have been in touch with my rfd and now they have ordered two direct from hull cartridge.....

Just remember what is a decent pellet in one gun ,may not be in another . You need to test with different pellets I know for fact HC set 110 up in Weihrauch FT .177 and that came from Chris homer from HC I found and many others have , you need to clean the barrel more often . Clean when new then again after 1000 pellets or when you see the power drop ,this could be after 500 pellets after a few times of doing this you will not need to do it again for some time 1 Quote Link to post
