Interesting, lancaster. I have a few PCP air rifles, but no pneumatics.
Glad you go the old girl working. I am surprised at the accuracy from a pointed pellet as they usually are the least accurate.
Perhaps the extra length (due to the point) actually helps the accuracy (shuttlecock effect)from the smooth bored barrel, just as this longer scenario helps with wad attachment to shotgun slugs.
Both of my springers are Weihrauch model 97's.
