If your chrono isn't that accurate you should read strange velocity difference on the same pellet I think....

But as I know like what Duke said it's actually hard to get the x53 to shoot more than 500fps... Mine was shooting 460fps at most but I don't remember what pellet gave me that number...

The only pellets it shot under 460 were the heavies.
The other one is way down on power. I ordered some new parts from Daisy to see what I can do with the other one.
Today I'm going to pick up a Suis Hybrid electronic scoring target for her and a couple FWB juniors.

If so far you only test the speed with that only one chrono, maybe get another one to do some comparison or reference testing could be a good idea...
At least just make sure you get the guessing or myth solved~

I believe my chrono is out by at least 20 fps. At least that is my story. I was surprised there was that much difference between the two rifles though

The 753 I have here shot 283fps across my chrono a month ago. After receiving my parts from Daisy I put a new wiper ring and oring, hammer spring and hammer in it. The speed increased considerably with RWS10 match pellets.
