40/772.5
shots 41 through 50 were taken at a 30 yard target and the first three were hole touching hole, as were the last 3, and the 10 shot group was two inches.
Ending pressure after 50 shots was approx. 1,350 psi.
So tell me, please, since I had 10 out of the forty shots through the crony read either err -or- some erroneous high number…is my crony messed up, or is this average for a shooting crony beta?
Also, please offer any advise on the rest of the shot string, what do you think masters, grasshopper is in need of direction 😆

Your shot are stringing vertically. Your goal is to get the bell curve if you can. Start playing around with the PW first, 4 is where you’ve started now start adjusting it lower till you start getting the BC and if you finally reach 0 and don’t get what you want then play with the higher numbers, above 4, but go to high on the PW number and you will just waste air and make alot of noise.
In addition to playing with the PW try different start fills, you’ll be suprise as to what results you’ll get when your start is for example 2700psi instead of your 2800psi.
Does the B Curve have to be exact? Not really, if your can get a linear shot string then that’s beautiful.
After you find the shot consistancy you like then you adjust the TH for MV.
I find I get great groups with my MV averaging 975fps with kodiak 21gr’ers.
So get your arm muscles in shape for the hand pump unless you have a scuba tank and lots of pellets and keep testing.
