Temperature effect???
Posted: Thu Jan 07, 2021 7:57 pm
I have a 10 meter range in my basement and that is where all my equipment is stored. The temperature is 55 degrees F and 50% humidity. I have several 10 meter springers, SSP and PCP.
I have one SSP (Steyr LG 10) that shoots poorly with a wide spread and no more than 500 fps. (8.2 g pellets) However, if I bring that rifle upstairs for a few hours to warm up to 70 degrees F, it works fine...575 fps with a tight spread. All other air guns work fine without warming in the 55 degrees temp.
Any ideas??
Thanks
