Using Hornady .950 balls.

But not with a .950 RB

I don't have one but the dragonslayer is THE gun that got me into Big bores. Everything I've read says they're "underpowered" but SUPER accurate with .490 RB.

Check out Jim's review of it: http://www.americanairgunhunter.com/dragonslayer.html

Mine does not do that, I might obtain 6 inches at 50 yards if lucky. I get maybe 7 or 8 good shots at 3000 psi.

.490 are too small for the gun.

490 cal roundballs and the 495's. Could not tell the difference in group size.

So i say try both even though most will only recommend .495".

You should be able to stack about 5-6 rb's at 50 yards off one fill with a STOCK DS50.

Mine loved the Thompson Center RB 1st and the Hornady RB 2nd
