EVOL Chilly , chill, morning with Peri and the Paradigm

[CTAirgunner]

Cooked up a nice hardy breakfast per usual, made my double cup off coffee, poured it into my Yeti and took Peri for a jaunt through the woods.(I feel that if I don't include peri in my posts now I may disappoint a handful btw)





When I got back I said Peri what do you think about some Paradigm time? Of course she said let's rock and roll.

Against my better judgement I decided to make an adjustment to the paradigm , I turned the reg up some the night before, well, what a great idea.

I brought the speed from 855 to 875 , it's still consistent , the rifle sounds better though, it's also more consistently accurate.

I do feel these groups could have been .5 moa or better had it not been 25 degrees and I am still fighting the valdada bipod, it's rigidity and stability is unmatched except for the plastic feet on a plastic table, the foot design on the bipod needs work. It's like having two credit cards together with water between them. I am going to try some non skid tape that is used on utility truck decking to see if it makes a difference.

Anyways, enjoy the pics, get out and shoot, chilly weather doesn't stop us here.

Very nice shooting in amazing scenery and I also love that you bring your buddy along

Right now, even as slippery as you feel that those feet are, that gun and you are consistent and very accurate. You will likely find that the bipod and rifle doesn't need or want to be loaded up, and the accuracy slightly drop in doing so. With the AAA rifles being a solid engineered platform, they don't seem to need to be loaded up ever. I've tried it many ways and a light hold and a neutral rest seems to work the best for accuracy, simply controlling recoil.

Really great shooting. I like the 875-890fps zone for pellets too. Where do you have your reg set to now, and if I missed it, did you get the bigger plenum yet? I'm still waiting on one and would love to hear some numbers for pressures and speed obtained at different settings, before I set mine up. It is starting to get nippy and I really don't like doing big temp changes taking my airgun in and out and am thinking about leaving my Paradigm out in the garage. My concern isn't with the gun itself but with the o-rings. What's the lowest temp you can store and use a pcp at without having any problems? There's a number that I haven't seen yet.

Thanks man, I don't have a plenum yet but I will have some insight very shortly on that ! My reg is now at 2125 ish.

not a 100% sure but i cant see o-rings caring much about the temp unless it get REALLY cold double digts below cold.
i only say this base on experiance with hydrolics. i understand theres no oil but it is just pressure really.

please correct me if i m wrong but i just dont see temp be much of a issue. other then maybe speed accuracy type of things but not failure.

As long as you have air pressure typically the rings wont really mind. I have been out hunting when it was WELL below zero. You will see a loss in pressure in the cylinder but the rifle still will shoot just fine.

When you get a larger plenum in the rifle you should see more consistancy for sure. I keep looking at the 30 cal over on AGN, as I have a ton of pellets that I have no rifle for

Great Gun, Great Shooting, and Great Dog! Can't ask for much more than that!

Yes, that absolutely would disappoint us

Nice shooting, both rifle & camera!
