My brother and i as you all know, took advantage of todays 74* weather and went out with the Accura V2 And Optima.

He was shooting the V2 with 110gr Blackhorn209 and the 250gr Aerolite. One thing we noticed is how much the FPS gets cut down once the barrel heats up, a flash channel with only a couple shots through it, does it as well.

100gr BH209 - 250 Aerolite Powerbelt.
2032 - Cold & Clean
2024 - dirty
2014 - dirty
2035 - Cold & Clean.

Round 2: 120gr BH209 - 250gr Aerolite Powerbelt
2134 Cold barrel and clean flash channel
2118 Warm barrel but with clean flash channel
2120 warm barrel but with clean flash channel.

We were pretty surprised by that.

Me using the Optima with pellet crap powder.

300gr Aerolite Powerbelt, 100gr Pyrodex Pellets " These actually shoot really good in the rifle. Swabbed bore clean between each shot and used Winchester W209 primers.

Switching to T7 pellets and using 100gr. I opened a new package and these suckers looked pretty sad. Very dry and very big loose pours. On all 3 shots, when i seated the bullet, they all crunched and broke apart.

pretty consistent but those pellets were is extremely sad shape. I will upload the pics later on of the pellets. They almost look like my home made pellet attempt LOL.
