DAI Leisure Indoor Gun Range

These are favoured mostly by hunters because they often combine flat shooting characteristics with good energy retention at range, perfect for close quarter pests control.

 

I found that over 25 yards I had some issues with tight grouping although accuracy is dependant on many other factors for instance airgun, scope, atmospheric conditions and shooter ability, I did however  have a couple of flyers but this could be down to other issues.

 

I consistently found that all 8 shots from the RM8 magazine were within the 1 inch mark which I was happy with, at less distance (approximately 20-22 yards) I found that they were virtually pellet on pellet.

 

I can easily see why these are a favourite and are much loved by air gunners, I also know of tests at over 35 meters that had groupings of 3/4” but as I said earlier a few factors would impact the accuracy.

 

All in all s great pellet with great reputation and pedigree, well worth testing out in most barrels.
