Guys I have been struggling with the 777 crud ring for a month now in my new encore. My first shot was always in the same place then proceding shots would be kinda scattered around on target.
Anyhows I called TC and talked to Jack. He stated I must have a tight bore and to try pyro pellets.
So I did and it worked like a charm.
Two pyro pellets and a 250 shockwave with a winchester 209 primer gave me consistant accuracy shot after shot with swabing with a spit and dry patch between shots. 7 shot group was around 2", 2" above the bull.
My last group with the encore I cleaned the barrel with tc #13 and let the gun cool down for 30 minutes while I shot my 22 mag. I then shot a 3 shot group with 10 minutes cool down time between shots that measured 14/16" center to center.
Just for curiosity I shot my omega with 3 pyro pellets and the shockwave 250 to see what it will do. This rifle has been doing gret with the 777 ffg and shockwave 250 and 200 but I was just curious what it would do with pellets.
I fired 3 shots allowing the barrel to cool real good between shots. Group was 1 and 1/4 center to center 3" above the bull. I was pretty impressed. However, each time I pulled the trigger the recoil knocked my contact in my left eye out of place.
Life is good in Virginia this morning.
