Looks like some nice numbers to me. Like that your using a much lower fill pressure. When can we see some groups ?

Dave I quite posting pictures of groups because the picture proves nothing . Many post pictures and state a yardage that is not true . A picture of a target or a kill at a stated yardage proves nothing . When I state a group size with out a picture others can except or reject that it happened . To many shooters trying to set to many records for the history books to get caught up in it . I take picture of my chrony readings to post because it saves me the time of having to punch it out on the key board as well as I save a copy at photo bucket in case someting happens to my note book . Have a good Thanksgiving .Marvin

OH I completely agree with you. We should all take pretty much everything we read on the net with a grain of salt, Still I am curious as to how well the corsair groups. If you say it does this at X range. I have no reason to doubt you.

Dave in other post I did accuracy testing with this rifle and these bullets . The distance was 50 yards ,tethered ,  regulated bi-pod on table . 5 shot groups were 3/4 to 1 inch center to center . Marvin

Ok, I musta missed that. Very nice accuracy fer sure !

I used the 105 grain bullets today . 80 cf tank had 3400 psi . I shot 135 shots regulated at 2600 psi and that brought the tank to 2600 psi . Marvin

135 shots is outstanding. Developing very good velocity with the 105s as well. I see you use a lot of SWC/WC rounds. Do you get better performance out of them than conical/round nose/RNFP bullets? Are these cowboy, matts, roll your own?

Very good stuff though either way.

those are some tight numbers!
nice!

I cast my own bullets . All of the bullets listed here are out of Lee molds except for the WTC . All are accurate bullets at the 50 yards that I have tested them at . Marvin

Impressive shot to shot consistency.
A testament to the whole set-up....... gun, regulator, bullets...

ok so some post a lie some do not.  how is telling us verses showing us any different.

 the ctc number of a group is not the only thing to learn about a gun and a bullet combo.  the group has a geomitry that speaks volumes,  to most shooters it's true they can tell nothing about a group other than ctc.  but there is alot more to it than ctc.  as they say a pic is worth a thousand words. i am interested in the big bore pcp guns.  but i feel there is a lot to learn about them before i decide which gun i would have.  the group geomitry is very important in that regard.  when i see that a particular gun's groups are horizontal from shooter to shooter and from other guns of that model i know the gun has some mechanical problem to be dealt with.  for an example. and fliers can tell a very important story too!.  so i guess i'll have to get that info from some other poster.
