Nahh 1:18 twist ratio is more than enough for slugs in this caliber. I shot about 5-6 thousands slugs and only one can of pellets through mine. It’s not the twist rate.
Humor me a little and throw the reg pressure up to about 2500psi and see if you can’t get those slugs going about 950fps… the...
I watched the video they made on the EdGun YouTube channel. The only lighting that can save this gun is the “off” switch on every light source in the room.
Yeah 7k is a little freaky. I think I’d be fine with it in a controlled environment but am I gonna go outside in 100° temps with a black bottle filled to 7k psi? Hard pass 😂😂😂
I mean at the muzzle yes the power levels are the same but consider that the best pellet BC is .05 at best and an even a middling slug gets around .09…. The power down range from a pellet will never compare to a slug.
I see what you mean on power level and I agree. Probably why they went with...
In what way is it a copy? Sounds like they worked with AEA to make a gun based on their own design. Karma AKA DFL has already done that. Barra and Air Venturi havw licensed Snowpeak products…I think Diana is too isn’t it?
As for the power factor the answer to that is pretty obvious… Slugs. I...
Last thing I’ll say is that I’ve only ever shot one rock chuck and it was last summer with my 250z in .25 cal…. At 81y the whack was spectacular and instant death so I didn’t have to worry about it scurrying down into its hole to die.
It was a pregnant female too so she was massive, 8-10lbs...
How much hammer spring are you using at the moment? What do the groups look like? Are they just totally scattered or is there a pattern to it? Looking at the shape of the holes does it look like the slug are tumbling?
You’re getting fantastic speed for that reg pressure. The fact that the...
Yeah his haji tuned gauntlet is a monster. A big reason I went so crazy with my EQ is that I wanted to try and get a similar performance. I was very envious.
Playing round with my Karma EQ HCT (Heartland Coyote Tune)…. See my post history but basically the only thing on the gun I haven’t touched is the block and the valve.
I run a triple tune on this gun… so the 71gr Hybrid Boattails @900fps from BARS for long range and Coyotes. The 62gr...
lol you seem like a real hoot at parties.
The guy who made it was a competitive paintballer for 20 years where regulator refresh rates really matter.
Also it’s not an “invention” it’s a blend. You make good points about silicone oil but you skipped over the fact that like all oils silicone...
Its not just the weight but the way she carries it 😂😂😂😂
My EQ weighs almost as much as my buddy’s gauntlet… we both will shoot my gun off hand no issues but neither of us bothers with the gauntlet. It’s awkward.
My main hunting buddy has a Haji-tuned G2 in .30 cal and it’s an absolute monster. Big power, excellent accuracy.
The only issue is that it’s 28 feet long and weight a metric short ton 😂😂😂… not a hike and carry gun unless you’re the Rock or John Cena.
Ugh oh… sounds like y’all need a curious machinist who loves the Barra 250z…. Possibly a guy who just did what I believe is the first and so far only LW barrel swap on a Karma EQ 😂😂😂.
Keep me posted on what yall find out. Dont be discouraged if the trail leads to a barrel blank. I can machine...
I totally see what you’re saying and there’s absolutely merit to it.
The point I was making with FX is that it’s half the price of a Blackwolf. I’m well aware of the issues they have.
Yes airguns are overpriced in general. Thankfully I feel like the “bang for buck” is going up in relation to...
Fair enough…. I’ll go back and check the video he made for the release of the Ace slugs. I’m very prepared to be wrong about it..
But like I said this helps my point even more. It’s a $4000 pellet shooter that doesn’t take podiums.
