What'cha doing air gun related today?

[Hateful McNasty]

I used some low expansion foam in my trap. It knocked out the ringing of the steel. I am counting the shots to see how long it lasts.

It'll do fine while it lasts.. probably degrade before you could shoot it out ..lol

It's an L2 morning today

Ordered more pellets and a CF bottle for my Gunnar

so would the Gunnar be a good candidate for a
Sub-MOA barrel?

Got some of those myself a month back! Beautiful looking pellets with thick skirts but not grouping well outta the Ghost . Gonna try em in S510, it shoots almost everything well so here's hoping

Good luck! I wish I could find an H&N that shot best in my rifles. Very good company in touch with their customers

What I have found is alotta of the H&N head sizes are (as labeled, I did not measure myself) 4.50/4.51 or 5.50/5.51 Whereas JSB will run 4.51/4.52 and 5.51/5.52 mostly with the latter being better in my AA guns. They just prefer soft and chunkier lead pellets

I got .177 h&n's in 3 head sizes and ????? Honestly did not see the extra costs worth over all .. so it's right back to tryed and true cphp .lol

Well today I cleaned the Condor, finished putting it together and shot it some just to get it sighted in. I love this gun. It is fun to shoot, has tons of power and plenty of shots for hunting. My scope mounts might be one size too short as I was having a little trouble getting comfortable for a good site picture. I might put the Zulus on it or get some taller scope rings for it. I will have to use heavy pellets in it. Just used 14.35 to site it in. 1st shot as set out of box 1386fps turned it down to 1-1 and then 1135fps but it was shooting well, anyway I will just use up my light pellets plinking. It got so hot I didn't have time to try any different pellets for the best groups but at least I got to shoot it. With the TalonP I was wanting a little move power for shooting slugs and more shots and this does it in spades.

Don't need to rub it in ..lol..

If I was a PCP guy I think I'd enjoy one myself . It offered a few things I kinda liked in the .22 .

Still a 14.5 grain at near 1400 fps ... That's dangerous.. I'd like a nice 900 myself on that ..lol

We're ready for some picture posts of progress. Groups too.

 

[Florida_Man]

Put a smackdown on a Eurasian dove in my feeder with my bullshark
10m with my CZ200 on lunch break, trying out some 8.44 gr

 

[coolsound]

Will be installing CF bottle on my Gunnar

 

[Chief55]

Shot the Condor for the second time. I was trying to find the best groups but my Caldwell hit the ground and got knocked out of calibration so much of it was a waste of time trying to get the velocity down and because that was broken it wasn't happening. Anyway, it seemed to like a fill of around 2600 with Hades and JSB 15.89 won't shoot it again till I can get something to tone it down some and some heaver pellets.

 

[coolsound]

5-shot groups with the Gunnar this morning at 60 yards. Love this gun

 

[Soren Drost]

Ready for a meet at my private shooting range tomorrow with a good friend of mine and his son

Bottle and rifles are filled and ready !

So what about that 600 fps thing ?

• Velocity: 600-1300 feet per second (Depending on caliber, pellet weight, and power setting)
• Power Adjustment: User-adjustable

Ya cant user adjust it down to something / bullet point 1 ?

Is there a adjuster wheel or knob or regulator needs a tweak?

They do say put of the box it's smoking them fast anyway..

I didn't mean I could not slow them down. I meant I had no idea how fast they were going at that point. I wanted a speed of around 940 but had no idea when I reached that because the chronograph was not giving me the correct readings. I kept letting the pressure drop all the way to 1500psi and the pellets dropped a couple of inches and were all over the place while the chronograph still was reading over 1050fps at that point I was sure I could no longer trust the chronograph and filled it back up to 2700psi and it started shooting good again but I have no idea what speed they were going.
