.25 caliber groups with Round balls
I received a .25 pellet sampler from Straight Shooters for my Walter Falcon for testing and I tried the Beeman perfect rounds in my Condor with the Talon tank. The rds are some what dirty and thery fit and shoot pretty good. The rounds are the only pellet that will have the same POA and POI as the Kodaiks on the Condor high flow tank at 25-30 yards so the scope can stay set as is. The Beeman rounds that I have are right at 24gr Avg.
10 shot string on Talon tank:
Beeman perfect rounds 24.0gr
Lo=892.7
Hi=899.8
Avg=895.8
ES=7.10
STD=3.46
FPE=42.77
First test was at 25 yards.
Next was 30 yards.
And again at 30.
After cleaning and lubing some with KryTech I tried a 6shot group due to 1 flier off taget due to the wind. This was good but off POA.

keep up the good work, I tried a penetration test tonight on wood at 3ft.,and all I got was 3in., 2500 fill,pw. max
Thats good man, you got the best of both worlds then, faster speed and still accurate as before……..NICE!!!
Your right, not much. It did break 900fps and it still shoots the same.
Photo, they MIGHT b. But if they are, i don’t suspect by much.
Starting press. was 2800psi with a 10 shot string.
Tofaz I want to test some lubed one’s on the Chrony. They maybe a little faster after I cleaned an lubed them?
Interesting stuff ! I sure am enjoying my .25 caliber and this gives me something else to try 😀
RB shot good, but what I noticed was your close fps spread, any particular tank pressure?
Very nice. That’s cool that the lubed ones grouped better at 30 yrds.
Kewl Post M8,
I am suprised that they grouped that well. might have to give them a go.
Peace,

I got started on the #3 hornady/roundball in my .25 with the intent of cheap plinking ammo at reasonable ranges and reduced velocity for better shot count. It filled that spot well but what surprised me is that the faster you shoot them the better they fly. My best results especially over 30 yards, have actually been with the highest velocity.
