Was testing my new R1 in 20 cal. again.
Was getting quite a devation with Beeman FTS Pellets. String of 5 shots, 3 were 860, 855, 870, 790, 798.
With Beeman Crow Magnums, 5 shots, 785, 774, 790, 782, 781.
Could the FTS Pellets quality be bad, or user error somehow?
The gun has around 420 rounds through it.
Best

| Clean out the barrel and see if anything changes. Every brand of pellet is sized a bit differently and perhaps the FTS's are bit wider than the Crows, so they tend to gum up more often in the barrel (?) |

Could be a poor quality batch of the FTS. Are you seating them correctly? Different hold? Light changes?
Could also be that your R1 needs a cleaning. |
