Hi guys,
I just viewed this YouTube footage and felt that a lot of what it contained was good advise. I'm a bit more particular about my shooting so I take it further but I think it's a good place to start.

Enjoy.
PS The gentleman should have also said that performance is also directly related to the Nuff Nuff behind the trigger and how much time they are willing to invest into improving their respective skills.

That was a good watch Geoff, learned something new about pellet fit in magazines, also he's got a good eye for tinkering with imperfections thay might affect pellet flight.

Good video goes to show how fine a line it can be between good and bad.
If you are going to weigh your pellets it just as critical to size them.

I don't think that I would be going at the crown like that. I would think about doing the crown if after the other steeps the gun wasn't accurate.

I've only lapped crowns with an electronic guitar jack, cordless drill and good old colgate toothpaste. I wouldn't go down the track of the dremmel chainsaw sharpening bit either Dave. Gulp.

Re: Improving your Airgun's Performance
Hi Geoff. Yes. Thought I would see what's happening since the last forum has gone down the gurgler.
