It really doesn't like the lightweight 5.x gr pellets. Couple forums say these need lots of rounds to "season" the barrel. My pump took about 10-15 rounds to shoot tight again. I shot a bunch of Gamo through it to use them up The were not consistent, some were tight, some were loose. After that and holding it tight the Kodiaks and wadcutters grouped better but not great. I think it will take some practice.
For springers, there is something called the 'artillery' hold. I am not sure what it exactly is, But like said above, I think it is holding the forearm with your off hand.

Rifles seem to like heavier pellets, the lighter ones are for air pistols.
