I have my pp800r tuned to about 13-15fpe...curious are you taking head or heart shots? And out to what distance?Really been enjoying your thread. The hunting pellet for my C362 is the 17.6gr Norma GTFT Heavy. Ten pumps gets you 593 fps. That equals 13 .74 FPE and it shoots flat enough out to 35 yards. Most of my shots are under 30 yards so this is plenty of medicine. For longer shots the 14.3gr Crosman Piranhas will hit 646 fps and 13.25 FPE for the same number of pumps. The 362 killed a squirrel at forty three yards with Piranhas last year. The ideal is a head shot. The 43 yard squirrel POA was the head but POI was the spine. It still amounted to DRT. I have elected for a boiler room shot but that was on a treed squirrel that would not present a head shot. Range was less than 20 yards and I decided to use the heavy Normas. The shot was a clean pass through of the vitals and the squirrel came down pretty quick after that.

Your first pcp, and you like it….hmmmm, the test begins, LOLGlad you have it sorted out!
Failure again.Short of putting a steel breech on the 3622 I see no effective way to mount a scope. Neither the Buck Rail intermounts nor the Crosman intermounts proved stable enough to mount a scope for anything more than plinking. All of my attempts to use the plastic breech with a scope failed eventually. Considering a Baker aluminum breech and I may buy myself one as a present.If I do I'll keep flogging this horse.
