At 25 yards, I got off a group a little over 1/2 ctc once I got the scope zeroed. At 50 yards, it started to open up to over 1" but IMO, once I get the trigger lightened up, it will be fine. Pull is a bit heavier than I'd like.

Noise is not as loud as I expected. About like a Sheridan with 10 pumps and a bit of ping so I think an HDD is in order. I was getting 825 - 830 with Diana domes in the heart of the power curve. Didn't shoot a whole string as that has been done by others and I wanted to get the rifle sighted in so I can do some target shooting and experiments in accuracy first. I might re-crown the barrel and work the trigger and retry once the weather settles in. More snow predicted for tomorrow - yippe.

25 yards with Diana domes. Other shots were from sight-in at that range


50 yards and opening up. I'd still have meat in the pot!


Scoped Discovery - I like the lines of this rifle



"but I'll be needin' that gun, fer squirrels and such."

yours even looks better than some others I've seen in posted pics.
Saw/read your posts over on the Yellow. Soon I'm sure you'll do
a little tinkering,modding and be shooting groups under an 1" at
50 yds. more often than not.

So how much $$$ for that .25 Tommy? hehehe

little MOD's on the Discovery, you will be the NASA guy for that gun

you won't be needing that gun (Disco, for squirrel's) after your mod's

maybe the RHINO's in Africa will be hiding for cover after you finish with that PCP

warren

and remember "it's 30% the gun and 70% the shooter"
