[QUOTE="mrgecko, post: 1850917, member: 17732"] There is a lot of info on the pellets going bad in just over a year and not shooting worth a hoot after that. A buddy of mine was shooting the pellets out of his 209X.50 encore and got similar results to you. He switched to powder and saw great improvement. I personally use 90 grains of pyrodex out of mine, and shoot either 320 or 370 grain maxi balls from TC. My gun Stainless Encore 209X50 will shoot either of these very well. They drop a lot over longer distances but i have never shot a deer at over 100 yards in OK anyway. Good luck. Start at 80 grains as mentioned above and work up. This method is tried, tested and true.
