So after I got the gun working, I put it back on the shelf was sick of looking at it lol. Now it's time to see if it will shoot, I had Crosman and AA in 10.5 to try. Slapped a Vortex on it.
The Crosman were shooting good, either side of 950fps and under 1" at 25 yds. Out to 50 was still under 2", no major complaints as I don't like this scope or featherweight trigger.
The AA on the other hand.....wasn't watching clock too close, 920ish for the first few. They were pretty loose fit so seemed reasonable. Was shooting similar size groups as the Crossman, but every 5-6 shots there was a flyer ~2" out. Figured I was jerking the trigger since it was so light. Nope. Scrolled back through--921, 917, 918, 923, 847. Every few shots there was one about 75fps slower. Seems a certain percentage are way too undersized. Thought about seating them deeper see if that helped, but that's too much extra effort. LOL I'll just shoot them though the Gamo.

Proper fitting pellets are a must, their is also a long learning curve learning to shoot a 350mag especially a .177cal. 10.5gn pellets or heavier are the most preferred, the 350mag is better suited in .22cal but to each their own, The longer lock time due to the stroke in a 350mag requires perfect follow thru, every time!
