Less wind during this set today and have the KOs moving faster, yesterday’s fps was 828.

Hmmm not exactly a power house, eh?
Do you think it does better with 10gr pellets?
Did you try those slugs for expansion too at that range?.. I'd be curious!

The choked barrel is taking its toll for sure. I shot some 10.3gr pellets too, 18.37ft/lbs. I plan on testing expansion at 50y when I get the tune 100%

The cricket keeps throwing me curveballs, every time I disassemble it something changes. Yesterday after taking it apart and putting it back together, it would fire with the safety on.

It’s very easy to cause adjustment issues with the trigger during disassembly and reassembly, but I’m taking my time and testing before I fill it and learning something new every time.

If you like a 3-D puzzle, this is the gun for you lol.

Which barrel in your Cricket 2 and at what velocity are you shooting the KO MK3 at 50 yards ?

I would definately give the barrel a polish

It’s a 17.7” choked CZ currently the KO‘s are shooting at 872 FPS.

KalibrGun advertises it as up to 22 FPE with 10.3gr pellets, the current tune, which is as close to the condition in which I first received the gun, I am seeing 896 FPS, 18.37 FPE average.
