Just about ready to put my Zelos on the bottle.
I have a Snowpeak M60 valve with gauge already, just need a bottle. I'm thinking 420-500 cc
Which brand and who to order it from?
So I am contemplating a bottle for my Zelos.
If I go say a 420 bottle, what shot count should I expect and how much weight is it going to add?
Right now I get about 35 good shots before falling off the reg.
250cc tube at 3600 psi
Reg at 2,000 psi
18.1gr pellet.
960 fps
So I have a stock 2240 7.5" barrel.
Are the barrels on these choked?
Will say a 10" unchoked barrel gain me anything, like velocity or shoot slugs better?
So right now my Zelos is factory set at 2,000 PSI.
Groups are great at well under .5 @ 50yds.
18.3gr. Pellets are going 960
23gr slugs at 925
Is there anything to be gained by upping the pressure to say 2500 PSI.
I don't want to loose accuracy.
Had not shot the Zelos in a couple weeks.
So this morning I went to the local range.
Got it dialed in with the JTS 18.1 and the H&N Baracuda's 18.13, they hit the same spot at
25 & 50yds going about 960fps at 2,000 psi.
However, the H&N Slug HP's are just a tad more accurate, but hit lower and...
Thank you,
I'm going to have study this as it is mostly above my head at the moment.
I'm shooting a 26" barrel with 18.1gr. Pellet at about 960 FPS and a 23gr. Slug at I think about 930 FPS.
So, not sure how to figure if a plenum would be of any benefit.
