I have the Accurizer for a few weeks now, and have done some small tests to see what I could gain from using it.
I have not been able to test alot of different ammo, as there is a shortage of 22lr amme here where I live.
I have mostly shot TopShot and CCI Standard in my rifle through the years, I use it mostly to kill birds, and it has worked for me. But now, with the Accurizer, I could convert the cheap Topshot and CCI standard ammo into hollowpoints, and have seen what it will do to accuracy and precision.
I have tried 3 different settings on the die, making a small hp, a medium and a big hp.
When I testshot it at 43 meters indoors, the results was scimilar with different ammo types. Small and medium hp gave me ok groups, but the big hp opened up the groups a lot. The Tenex point decreased group size, but my rifle is not the best out there, so the groupsize itself, is not as small as it would be in a more expencive rifle or setup.
This is a small hp from Topshot
This is a big hp from Topshot
Topshot Tenex with a bad trigger job
This is RWS R50 Tenex also with a bad trigger job
This is RWS R50 with no modifiction
RWS R50 small hp
RWS R50 medium hp
RWS R50 big hp
As you can see, the results are scimilar, despite different ammo types. The R50 is a much more expensive round than Topshot.
I also made a expansion test, at 50 meters, shot in wet paper.
It shows that there is absolutly something to gain here
I will need to shoot and test more, but this is very promising, and it is a very nice tool.
I'll check back soon
