    N/A Does fill pressure determine sweet spot velocity?

    i just did a handful of strings at 3000psi and every increase in hammer spring isnt flattening the curve. im getting over 1000fps currently and the ES is barely coming down. im not trying to shoot that hot, i am curious at this point and want to see where it goes but when i fill it to 2000 psi...

    Do you put grip on your triggers or keep them smooth?

    Just curious if anyone is putting some type of grip on their trigger blades (i.e. sand paper) or make them smooth? i personally like grip, i cant stand when my finger slides all over the place through the shot. if so, accuracy better or worse?

    Tuning How to lower SD on unregulated pcp's?

    1/8 turn on the hammer spring is all i did to get the new results from the prior.. i dont mess with ports ever, i feel as though like i just did you can achieve satisfactory results with minor altercations first.. new ES is 28 and SD is 8.. that to me for an unregulater pcp is just where i wana be.

    Tuning How to lower SD on unregulated pcp's?

    Honestly, 900fps with 8.4g Norma for the beeman and 9.1g Norma for the hatsan to me will provide a clean kill shot on most small critters and allow me to plink at 50+ yards.. that to me is right where i wana be with my air rifles.. I just finished graphing my new results and needless to say, im...

    Tuning How to lower SD on unregulated pcp's?

    Dont get me wrong, im all for picking off soda cans, spinners, bottle caps, mints etc. i just WANT to do it at longer distances and improve my shooting as much as i can. that to me makes hitting those cans even more fun for me. Aaaaand the occasional arisal can and a candle/small fire next to it...

    "not much" means there is till room for improvement.. im going for gold haha after im done typing this im going to add 1/32-1/8 turn untill i see my initial 3 shots are just over 900 (then top off before a new full string when i think its where i want it) so i still have a little curve for more...

    No i dont see any at 26 yards in my back yard, stacking pellet on pellet, 1/4 inch groups over the course of the string.. im not worrying, im trying to get the gun to shoot at its optimal level and understand all of the physics/math/tuning that goes into achieving that. sure, its fine for the...

    thats what i mean, the curve is just a small adjustment away from a nice flat string but i know things can be done to also lower SD too

    Tuning How to lower SD on unregulated pcp's?

    Im aware of finding the sweet spots and filling to those and do your two mags and refill etc. im just trying to get that curve as flat as possible before i settle on that starting point where the ES is nominal over the course of the shots and the SD is as low as i can get it. Im just curious as...
