Condor ss .25
Looks like my condor will be in my hands friday. Anyone have any suggestions for me that i should do when i get it unpacked? With my mrod i just cleaned it and shot it for a week before doing anything to adjust it. But this time around if there is anything that should be done regarding performance or just to make it better from the get go please let me know. I will be putting some pellets on paper that range from 20gr. To the 35 gr. eun jin pellet and comparing it against my .25 mrod to see how they differ in their preferred diet of pellet.

Having had a couple of .25 M rods, I think you’ll find the AF gun is considerably less pellet picky. My Mrod was about as accurate as my Condor out to 40 yards shooting JSB’s, the M Rod’s preferred diet.
Past that, say 75 yards, i just wasn’t able to get the kill ratio I wanted with the M-rod.
Something to consider is when going to different weight pellets in your tests, chrony each weight of pellet and try to keep them all around the same speed (I.e. 800fps) Doing this will give you a better idea of compairative overall accuracy of each pellet.This may be difficult with the EunJin lead (can’t really call them pellets) as the shorter barrel may be a bit of a hold up, that is why I suggested a lower FPS. We all know speed will play a big factor in accuracy. (Duh)
Part of the fun of this,is trying the different pellets at different ranges too.
Be sure to post pics of your gun and groups.
Set the tophat to about .07-.08
Other than that just shoot it.

Thanks for that info. My mrod is pellet picky to an extent. It loves jsb kings but everything else is always larger groups but it shoots several heavy pellets from 27gr. To 31gr. Pretty consistent to the jsb impact point minus a little more drop. It hates the eun jin 35 i have not tried the heavier one but that one seems to heavy for the stock mrod to get any kind of trajectory with unless you wanted to shoot it like a mortor
i am pretty excited to get it and run some shots thru it. I have a nikon monarch 6.5-20 scope to put on until i get another mil dot scope. I will post some stuff in the coming days.
