Texan carbine/horrible accuracy
- Thread starter PolarisRngr
- Start date
I switched to a 330 grain slug and lowered the power wheel to 50% the accuracy has improved at the 30 yard mark. As soon as the weather cooperates I’ll be moving to the 50 yard range. Hopefully groups stay close!

Benjamin Bulldog .357..had mine converted to Pitbull carbine .357.( 30" inches overall length, m18 threaded, use a re-wrapped Donny Fl Emperor v3) get about 272 ft lbs and less than a inch at 50 yards with 158gr swc hp Hornady slugs..But, im thinking of a Hunter Supply Texan .357 for Loooonng Range..or a LSS .357...had a Western Bushbuck .45 ordered the other day, decided it would disturb the neighbors so i cancelled the order..So now, decision to make on the HS Texan .357 or Texan LSS .357.. my Gauntlet 30sl is perfectly good for 400/ 500 yards max on ground hogs and plinking and id say for deer at wherever i could hit them in a lethal area( say 100 yards)..hell, with my new Huben gk1 v3 .22 id pop a deer in the temple at bow ranges( this little power house is Lethal with slugs)..but im a veteran shooter of 40 years..

Don’t go crazy they are great guns but sometimes quality control will slip thru the cracks. Pyramids has excellent customer service.call them.Ahghhhh I thought this was a good purchase!!!!!!!!!

Some guns dont like to be shot like that. Try just shooting on a bag resting on your hand and see if that helps. My texan carbine does not shoot well on the mounted bipod.

I use swagged pro slugs in my big bores, they seem to be consistent. One thing that helped me out was using the patch worm cleaning system. Keeping my bore clean was a major contribution to my accuracy. Good luck!
