A bit more pellet testing with my Morini162ei airpistol today at 20 yards. A good bit better than I expected to be honest.

Ten different pellets with pistol clamped to a not too solid wooden lightweight bench. All 5 shot groups and all under .7"

The R10's retail at around £10/500, Hobby £6.50 and the HN Excite are less that £4/500. Hardly any difference in group size

Reminds me of my old Ransom rest load testing days.

Indeed - I also spent many happy hours with a Ransom rest at Stone Lodge ranges testing mostly .32 wadcutter loads in a range of the current match pistols of the time.
Some were extremely accurate but no good at all if they weren't 100% reliable.
