Default T/C Renegade FPB results

Took the renegade to the range today. It shot 2"-3" groups with PRB at 75 yards with theopen sights, and with the FPB's it shot 1"-2" groups at 75 yards with open sights. Wasnt shooting offhand, was resting front of rifle on sandbags. I was just using 50 grains of FFG 777 with the PRB (just plinking) and I was using 80 grains of FFG 777 with the FPB bullet. I wish wal-mart had more of the FPB bullets for $9 a pack I would like to have more. I was also managing to shoot the PRB offhand at 75 yards in about a 6" group with an occasional flyer (me not the gun)

Saw your other post that this is a 1:48 barrel. Good to know they will shoot well with that barrel.
