Hey Matt the problem with ur inconsisitent pellet placement may be a number of things, maybe the seal on the barrel is worn and is leaking air. Also i find that if I lubricate pellets with oil the gun diesels and accuracy is lost so i prepare mine and coat them in furniture polosh which has beeswax in it, this improves accuracy. Maybe its ur technique remember NEVER rest spring guns on a hard surface you should take an easy grip using your leading arm as a base for the rifle to rest on and then just squeeze the trigger slowly don't snatch at it also that breathing has to be spott on as well. I use RWS superdomes instead of webley lazapell or dome the cost a bit more but are lighter and travel further you also get 500 to a tin.

Matt, I've seen an accuracy problem caused by the spring being a bit tight inside the piston sleeve. Easily fixed with a slightly smaller OD spring.

I agree with the lube comment. If I lube my Lazadomes with Napier pellet lube, the gun starts to diesel after a while. Also, as I am learning, trigger control is an art that I will have to practice and practice!
