I picked them up to try out and (as I recall) only my slowest shooting gun shot them faster than 7grain lead pellets. The other rifles I tried them in shot the 7g faster than the 5.56 copper tipped gamo's.
I never got the the accuracy phase. I was shooting them over the chrony in my basement which gives me 15 feet distance.What gun did you plan to shoot them in ? If it is one in my siggy I will load them up and check both FPS and accuracy up to 25 yards (best I can get in the backyard).
You (or your friend) probably shouldn't be shooting pellets that light through a springer.
That pellet is waaaaay toooo lite for any 12fpe springer like your CFX. I wouldn't use even 1...because once you smash your piston seal..."Piston Slam"....you've done unhealing damage. 7.9g pellets to 8.8g are proven.If you don't like your CFX...sell it. There's guys that will take care of it
Then go for it smart guy! Broken is Broken.

The Fusion or the Disco (is it in 177 or 22?) are about the class of rifle I'm thinking about with this pellet. Maybe this weekend I'll get over to his place and we'll do some more serious testing than he's done so far. It all depends on whether duty calls or if I'll have time to goof off. We don't have a PCP YET, so we'll be shooting them through my CFX and his Gamo XXX (can't remember what model he has). Anyway, am seriously considering a Disco (or Marauder) or a Fusion. I'm thinking that the light pellet won't retain much energy out there past 30 yards, but his report is that it carries well - much better than his standard pellet (not sure what he's been shooting lately).
