Yeah could be mate, good knows how many powder/projectile combos I tried but none really showed any great potential, just wasn't worth the irritation in the end to me, I've got a 222 Howa and it runs rings around that thing so was an easy decision in the end, convert it to cash and buy something better.

The trigger in this thing was an absolute cluster f***, no matter what I tried I just couldn't get to to break or lighten up enough to be usable, I changed springs, polished etc yet still it was too heavy and creepy and then when you got it to where it wasn't too bad it was unstable and you couldn't cock it without it dropping, that was the last straw for me. :thumbsup:
