My DAWS 65 air rifle

After going through all the post it seemed to me that DAWS air riflle is not so popular among us.But as I am shooting with it regularly whenever I get time it never let me down.We all know all kolkata made air rifles need serious tuning so it was tuned by myself as per guidance of our respected Mr Basu.It is a break barrel,.22 cal air rifle with nice rifiling.Before tuning I must admit that the trigger was very hard to pull but now it is breaking crispily.Front sight and rear sight is also fairly good.Now the accuracy the main criteria for all of us that we need.According to me it is better to post photos than to write in words.Though it is shooting with 520 to 540 fps enough for me to use it within 15 mts for plinking.

Great Group!

FPS is not the main criteria. Your FPS is decent, your grouping more decent.

Great going.

Great grouping. For that kind of grouping three things have to work togther and work well
1. rifle
2. pellet
3. shooter

Hello targetpoint,

> IMHO you have an air rifle that's pleasurable to shoot with good accuracy....Don't aspire for more!!!!

6 pellets almost in a same hole out of 7 ??
This is very rare and perhaps even more difficult to repeat.
This is only possible when man and machine at its best.
I have never done such tight grouping with 6 pellets.
Keep enjoying....
