I've had good luck with the pellet mold. I've only tried the 66 grain, but they've consistently shot one hole groups at my admittedly short 25 yard back yard range.


If you look at the end of the original mold thread, there are some posts about accuracy. https://www.gatewaytoairguns.org/GTA/index.php?topic=137126.0 (https://www.gatewaytoairguns.org/GTA/index.php?topic=137126.0)

I’ve had great accuracy with the 30 BBT front a Benjamin 392 steroid pumper at 700 fps . They are the larger of the two with no HP.  I’ve t4ied them in other barrels with 2 to 4 MOA at 50 yards .

2 to 4 moa at 50 yards is 4 to 8 inches at 50 yards. How is that great accuracy? I'm not getting what your are telling us here. ???

Knife ,
The 2 to 4 moa was with other barrels . Ex : LW ,Crosman 2260 and Hatsan . The 392 will shoot them inside one inch at 50 with a Williams peep sight.

I assume (dangerous, I know) that Hobbyman2007 is talking about the 30 grain .22 bbt not the .30 cal.


But 2-4 moa is 1-2" at 50 yards, not 4-8" (sorry Knife). Still not great but acceptable for some uses.

I have to say... I tried the .25 BTT's out of a Condor and wasnt impressed... so havent bothered with the others.  Other folks mileage may vary.  They do look good. Just didnt do it out of my Condor.  The only slug I've found to work out of my bird is the Rat Snipers and they do well.

Sort of. Needs a bit of math to work. Not exactly 1-2" considering 1 moa isn't exactly 1 ", not to mention, there is no such thing as moa at 50, as it does not address how much the actual spread would be at 1oo yards. Not linear, particularly in Airguns using pellets.

So why not just say 1-2" and be done with it. Not professional sounding enough? LOO!!! ;D
