Barrels are like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get…
Not that extreme but somewhat true. My 24″ barrel is not too picky. It will group both EJ’s and most all JSB’s and Kodiaks quite well at shorter distances 25 to 50 yards.
The jury is still out on the best pellet—in my rifle—at 100 yards. Still need to do more testing.
Like aforementioned, buy a variety of pellets to find which ones work best in your rifle.
And what did you mean by “your wife is going to let you order pellets”??? Man, I must have a good woman, or a woman who knows her place, because the day a woman tells me what I can or can’t do with my hard earned money will be a cold day in Hell 👿
I’d say to skip the 32 grain EJs as they were awful tight in my .22 Condor.
The 28 grain EJs worked good for me at 100 yards but I bought a bunch of the H&N Baracudas at 21.1 grain and will be shooting them for a while. I haven’t shot the Baracudas enough at 100 yards to tell if I like them but I’m getting real good chrono strings from them.
Try the 25.4 grain JSBs they outshoot everything I have tried in my Condor.

Grab a few tins of each and see what shoots best. The H&N Barracudas are exact same pellet as the Kodiaks and usually cost a little less.
havent shot at 100yds yet maby tomorrow
what do they open up to at 100?
as for the pellets I would go for a tin of each to see how they do with at least 2 of the 28grain round noises and don’t forget to pace a as many tins of kodiaks on the order that you can get away with
i know its hard to believe .iv got pics under the condor section.the crack is loud .plus i shoot like 4 hrs a day
really, your getting them to group that small at a true 50 yards and your sure you hear the crack?
1171 powerwheel all the way up .356 groups at 50yds 5 shots
what speeds are you seeing with the 18’s?

I was a Eun Jin and Kodiak guy until I tried the JSB’s now without a doubt for my Condor the JSB’s outperform the EJs and Kodiaks at longer ranges.
The only thing I can think of is the BC and skirts.
Here are some groups to ponder at as well the JSBs shot the best in my Polygonal .25 barrel at at 16.00 for 350 pellets the value is there for me with the performance.
Eun Jins .25: 50 yards
JSB Exact Kings .25:
.25 JSB in wind:
.25 EJ:
.25 Crow Mag:
.25 Kodiaks:
.22 JSB in bad wind 100 yards:
.25 JSB 25 yards in wind 5 shots per group:
All shots were with my bipod and in pretty bad wind.
