    Airforce Texan slug weight?

    Food for thought regarding the .510. I'm Shooting Mr. HP 385gr micro HP slugs and my Texan .510 will consistently put lead on 8" steel at 400 yards. My personal goal has been to get 10 out of 10 on steel, but my best to date is 8 out of 10. It is important to note that I'm talking about a...

    Airforce Zeroing Texan 457 Carbine

    Try the Mr. H.P. 255gr slugs at 3,600psi. These are giving me three shot groups that average 1,015fps with an extreme spread under 5fps. After properly tuning to the .510/255gr HP, you should consistently get 3 shot groups that are a little under 2", even at night! These slugs will group very...

    Airforce Texan slug weight?

    Agreed... the longer barrels get you greater velocity compared to a short. But there is no substitute for taking the time to properly tune your rifle. It's been my experience that most people don't invest the time needed, or simply don't know how to properly tune for a specific weight slugs...

    Airforce Anyone tried a .458 copper round in a .50 sabot in the .50 texan?

    Ya... What they said! Been there done that. I tried many different combinations, including .44 copper HP and nothing yielded reliable accuracy. Accuracy will be poor, but you'll get one good flyer on occasion that makes you think it's possible.

    Airforce Texan slug weight?

    I have a Texan .510 LSSCF, and the stock rifle with pressure at 3,600psi would sling the 255gr Mr. HP slugs at 1,005fps. Same rifle today, set at 4,400psi is slinging Mr. HP 305gr slugs at 1,049fps. The heavier 385gr Mr. HP slugs are going 954fps. lol... the 255's are at the ragged edge of...

    Airforce Texan 457 tuning wheel

    Tune your AirForce Texan for max velocity and maximize air efficiency. If you like the information I've provided, I'd be grateful if you would take the time to give me my first "Professor" ranking as a forum contributor who is providing good and accurate information. You have a chrono… great...

    I removed the auto safety some time back and placed it in the circular file. Everything works so much better now. Also keeping my ear to the ground for 5,500psi air tanks at a reasonable price.

    Yep… I installed the AOA kit, but broke tree top hats before tossing the massive hammer and building my own top hat. I gained a lot of adjustability, faster trigger response and a little over 70fps in the process. I’ve been considering the booster pump, but still undecided.

    Airforce Texan 457 tuning wheel

    OK... First question; Are you aware that the action needs to be open to view the tensioner wheel. The images below are with the action closed and again with it open (see the tensioner wheel). Ignore my marks, just note that the round holes are all the way to the right/towards the chamber. This...
