Light or Heavy Pellets in FWB300

Post by gzig5 »

I have a FWB300 that I am using for winter indoor practice. After replacing the seals, it seems to shoot very well with the various non-match pellets I had laying around as well as some orange box Vogel. I'd like to get a couple different brands and see if one works significantly better. I see that there are different weights. In a rifle, is one weight more likely to perform better or is it the luck of the draw? If there was a strong tendency one way or the other, it would cut down on the testing I need to do.

Start with the cheap (light) ones and work your way up.

My 300S and RWS MeisterKugeln (yellow and black label) leave nothing to be desired. Great pellet for my FWB300!

My 300S likes the JSB Exact RS 7.33 gr pellets.Second best is RWS R-10 heavy 8.2 gr pellets.I suspect that the RWS R-10 pistol 7.0 gr pellets will work better than the heavy R-10's but haven't tried them yet.I just got the 300S.

I use RWS basic (green label) with my rifle. It perform flawlessly. But few monts ago I shot litle benchrest. I had only JSB heavy then and again rifle shot one hole at 25 meters.
