1000 is too fast for pellets but, one can never tell, I run most of mine just a bit over 900, I've also found that AEA's run the best, Your pattern looks like one of mine before I cleaned the barrel, of course we have to ask, is the parallax spot on and the scope and mountings proper? If you've already addressed this just ignore me, I thought I read every post but I may have missed it.
Thank you for taking the time to respond.
Thanks for stepping in to help. I''ve tried velocities from 500 to 1009 with pellets from 16g to 34g and slugs too. I usually run pellets at 860 to 888 and my Non-Magnum Commander XR is fine, accurate, just like I want it. No issues but it give me 35 fpe and Magnum is 45. Yes, I know, If I can't hit it with the Magnum, the 45 fpe is useless. I am hopefull that Jared will work it out, maybe as simple as new barrel. He said to try it without shroud and I'll do that tomorrow and report here. I haven't ever seen ANY complaints or problems with Brocock/Brk Commander XR Magnum.I wonder what others that have the same model PCP as you and are using the exact same pellets are running their fps at Ask .Another thing ,but this is mainly springer stuff; it is better to run fpe below 800fps. Your problem is a head scratcher. I know you are determined,just do not loose any more hair from it,
I’ve never had a PCP rifle that I would have to put hundreds or thousands of rounds through in order to get even acceptable groups. Let alone a $2300 PCP rifle.
a lot of problems with barrels might not be the problem. the scope is not parrael to the barrel. it's approx 3" above and with this difference triangulation is something that needs to be understood. zeroing at longer distances, the barrel becomes almost parralel, so the scope line of sight is more or less 3" at all distances. a close range zeroing will have a significant effect on longer lange unless you re zero your scope for the longer distance. it's just understanding geometry. i have heard people say it's cheap scope or bad barrels, thats' mostly wrong. if the vertical accuracy only is affected then it's a triangulation issue and not a equipment problem.
