Diana Stormrider .22 power chrony

[brapshwing]

Anybody Chrony a Diana Stormrider? I don't have a working chrony at this time and wonder what the .22 is putting out for energy?  I have been putting HN Barracuda Match thru it but those things are a bit heavy at 21+...

I have a multi X 2-7x32 AO Winchester scope on mine currently.

Wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a great .22 pellet that will shoot relatively flat (since I don't have a mildot/milady scope).

Troy;

The SR can be anywhere between 14 and 19 ft-lbs. Some even have approached 20.
It ALL depends on what you have "under the hood".

In GENERAL OEM SR barrels like the Crosman 14.3, and the JSB 15.9
I have tried some OEM barrels with the Crosman 19 and they have done so-so.
You should also try the two head sizes available in JSB's Exacts Jumbo as well as in H&N's FTT.

Sorry I cannot give you a more precise answer, the SR is one of  the most "modifiable" guns in the current market.

HTH, keep well and shoot straight!

 My Mrod Air tuned version AKA Varmint, .177 is doing 24 FPE with a NSA 15 gr slug.
 You might want to try some .22 in the 16 - 18 gr renge, Norma 16.7 is a possible accurate option.

My Stormrider .22 has a Hammers 4-12 40 mil-dot. Using Premier 14.3 I'm clocking 850 fps rising to about 925 fps and back to around 840 after around 18 shots. This is a questionable chrony (read extremely cheap) but it seems to be in the vicinity with my Coyote. These pellets, for me, are extremely accurate out to 50 yds. I run 2+ mildots high from 30-50 yds and at 75 I'm around 1 mildot low. By the 10th shot, at 75 yds, I'm almost back up to the crosshairs and it'll start coming back down to about 1 1/2 mildots after around 18 shots. I generally shoot 6 and recharge. My bushytailed nemesis arrives at about 73 yards and if I do my part he doesn't leave.
  Benjamin Discovery 14.3 works well in this gun too. H&N Barracuda Hunters 18.21 don't do bad but I've never chronyed them. My gun doesn't seem to like the heavier pellets unfortunately.
Premier Piranhas 14.3 do well too. H&N Field Target Trophy 14.66 do well out to 50 yards but they seem to open up further out.
 I can't get Gamo pellets to group even at 10 yds.
  Only had this gun for a couple months but for me it's more accurate than my Gamo coyote .22.

Also, my scope remains on 12 power, even when I feed the cat a sparrow at about 10 yards.
