RTI MORA .25 CAL STANDARD

First impressions after 10 days ownership





Before jumping into pros and cons, let me give you an introduction first.





I do not promote guns nor brands because I’m getting paid or free stuff, I do what I do because I’m passionate about Air gunning and love sharing.


I always paid for my toys.





These are just my opinions and nothing comes from “ What I have been told” but straight from what I have experienced.





So let’s do it.





I chose the MORA Standard version .25 cal because it suits my needs: it’s a Hunting set up, the choice of the scope, slugs and Vo depends only by your personal preferences, in my opinion there is no best gun/scope/ammo but only what works best for you.





As soon as you open the beautiful rifle case in which the gun comes in, you notice the manufacture quality, the foam is precisely laser cut and all the accessories are placed neatly. As you pick up the gun, which is on the heavy side especially on the back, I have noticed how well was made and I did not t get the impression I got anything cheap, all the machining are superb and having owned several different models and brands I can say only a few can brag about a similar level. The gun comes also with 2 beautiful 15 rounds (.25 cal ) magazines designed to accommodate huge slugs even beyond what is available in the mass produced slugs market. RTI is the only brand doing this unique magazines, needles to say they are also well made. The Mora comes also with the huge Hush 50 suppressor, is very effective taming the noise level down; if you shoot the gun with the shroud only, which has a monocore inside wrapped with felt, you notice a crack noise more similar to to a .22 lr with no moderator installed. Using the Hush .50 will make the gun backyard friendly.





The gun came set by the factory to shoot JSB 25,39 gr at 280 m/s or 920 fps, it has 2 Regs, the first comes at 220 bar and the second Reg at 90/100 bar, analog gauges are notoriously imprecise and not easy to read, lately I installed a digital one and noticed that the factory one was reading 10 bar less than the Seckmeth. I did not shoot on paper with pellets, as I’m not interested in that kind of projectiles anymore but used them to break the gun in before adjusting the power to my needs. I really suggest you to shoot 2/3 hundreds of rounds ( the more the better) before adjusting anything to your preference, let the gun settle down and break in is a must for me.


One of the most interesting features is the new pneumatic hammer, what RTI did is routing the air from the plenum behind the hammer, a pin that acts as a spring, changing up or down the pressure to the regulator will automatically change the force needed to open the valve correctly which means you do not need to adjust the hammer tension anymore to get the best consistency. As I’m not the most entitled person to talk about this particular subject nor technical stuff due to low experience of this particularI rifle, I suggest you to watch Gregor Kamensek You tube channel and Brendan Mahaffey channel. Another good source is obviously Steve Ott who has a deeper understating and ownership of this gun.





Talking briefly about the valve: The purpose of the valve is determine how much air is pushed behind your projectile of choice, opening it up will add more velocity and closing it down will do the opposite. You don’t use the valve to bring the Velocity up but only to bring consistency in, the Reg will be used to increase the velocity, usually 30 fps ( more or less) above your ideal velocity, then with the valve fully open you start reducing the velocity until you get the best result you are satisfied with. This is the best way I learnt to tune the gun.





The Mora is equipped with an awesome 600 mm RPB light choke barrel, made by Lothar Walther barrel according by RTI specification . It has a 1.22 twist and it was made to shoot nominal calibers, in my case .250


The only slug I shot trough it until now is the Zan 45 gr at 1007 fps which performed unbelievable good. The reason I did not tried anything else yet is because they performed so awesome that I thought I would not have found anything better than that. Keep in mind that what I think is the best result for me may vary for others . I’m not a paper puncher so the included random group is more than enough for what I need. The group is the only one I shot at that distance, not cherry picked.


Coming about what I dislike.





What I don’t like about the gun is just a couple of things: the rubbery butt pad is prone to come off easily and if you do not keep an eye on it you can easily lose it in the filed. The bottle protector with m lock slots is quite good, a bit flimsy in my opinion but nothing tragic. What is missing is the arca rail adaptor, if you shoot from a tripod is mandatory and also a picatinny rail as well. I bought them separately. I also include the lack of but pad adjustability, making shooting prone uncomfortable.


Concluding.





What impressed me the most about Mora: the gun is the easiest tunable gun ever tried, less hold sensitive, more accurate out of the box gun ever tried. Period.


It can deliver unmatched power out of the box, I set mine at 182 bar and with this configuration I get 50 shots at 101 FP or 138 j. Being a hunting Gun, capable of taking large pests like coyote size even at 200 plus yards dropping them stone dead with a solid shot placement (neck area and not body shots). Jaylee Britt rules


I want to point out also: Mora does not lose the POI even if you leave the gun sit for days or if you clean the barrel, found only 1 click difference.


When you take the rifle out of the case, you do not need to purge it taking dry fires to make it shoot straight and true. if you do your part and if it’s dialed correctly it’s 1 shot 1 kill. Tried “cold bore shots” at 150 yards, orange size targets and it is what I like to call a “Death sentence”


I really suggest you to give it a try, it will make you smile for days after you realize there is nothing else like that on the market and until now has proved to be a solid, reliable Air rifle.
The last thing worth to mention and the only one coming from "What I have been told" exception that proves the rule
🤣
is not easy getting spare parts because of the high demand of this product. So do not mess around with it too much, do not strip it unless you are sure about what you are doing and at least getting your self a spare o ring kit is a must

RAW Rapid  TM1000X Benchrest .22 with Benchmark Barrel

Via some Wheeling and Dealing i procured a very nice OLD school thimble style TM1000X with what i think is a Benchmark Barrel.

Came with a ol school Weaver scope..... damn....the reticle is thinner than a fleas eye lashes.
This scope made me realize how wiggly my fold down shooters table is. :{

Because the Benchmark barrel was a unique O.D. @ 19 mm i had to have a custom 1/2" UNF moderator adapter made before i could shoot my cannon. Otherwise too loud for my backyard neighborhood. I just googled custom adapter: https://www.suppressor-thread-adapter.com/

Shown with the Silent Thunder Ordnance Sarissa High flow - she's a quiet gal. Phhht.

Results from this mornings site in with JSB 18.13's at 25 meters shown in last picture.

FX  Fx Wildcat MK3 BT sudden power loss

Hi,

I set up my FX Wildcat MK3 BT 22, 600mm slug liner to the max to try out what's the max speed to shoot different weight slugs.

I maxed out the hammer spring preload to max until the gun won't cock and gave it a 1/4 turn in. I kept increasing the reg up to 160 bar or 170 bar (my gauge was off by 100ish bar but I since had replaced it) until there's no more gain in speed, KO slug 25gr to 1130 fps. I kept shooting different weight slugs and control the speed with the 20-click hammer power wheel to find the right speed for each slug.

And then I heard a loud burst of air on my cheek. I thought the gun was out of timing, and checked the alignment of the pin probe relative to the sight hole, and it's still at where I set it up, slightly to the front and the two screws holding the cocking rod were tight. And the speed began to drop by about 100 to 150 fps.

I dismantled the whole gun. The small oring on the valve pin was busted. I replaced it with a new valve pin and the valve seat as well. I took out both Huma Air regs. Cleaned them up and replaced the orings. Filled in the gun with air to check for leak.

I went back shooting and i could not get the speed I was getting even though my set up was the same. Puzzled and I stopped shooting.

Here is the first question, what's going on?

Then i remembered about a YT vid about the importance of getting the length of the slug pin probe right. I went back and made sure that the length of slug pin probe seated the slug right at the end of the dual TP.

Before I could try it out, I had to go on a work trip. (sorry for the downer :))

This leads to my second question, does slug pin probe length matter? Usually I just set it to the longest I could, leaving just enough clearance for the mag.

I'm curious what do you think about these two, what I think are, interesting questions.

Thanks.

Beeman  Talk about pellet fussy.

I'm still struggling to understand what's going on with the accuracy of this early Beeman 77. The wind was very light to non existent this afternoon so I went back at this rifle with five shot groups at 25 yards. It shoots ok with FTTs 4.51 (targets 1-5)or 4.52 (targets 6-10). After dialing right 8 clicks and up 6 I tried grouping 5 FX 10.3s on 11 and it was horrible. Tried two shots of 8.44 JSB at 12 but they shot so far left I moved to 13 where they shot so poorly I gave up after four.
Bottom row is AA branded 8.4 made by JSB. Target 23 is more what I expect from this rifle at 25 yards the rest are about the same as FTTs..

This gun shoots ok with its best pellets but its terrible with most everything else. The last rifle I seen shoot different pellets to such wildly different POI had a loose barrel and no choke. The barrel on this one slugs great so I had such hi hopes.

It might turn out to only be a conversation piece on the wall. 😮‍💨

Moderator clipping question

Hello friends,

I suspect I have a clipping issue on new 600mm barrel setup. Mod is a Donny FL Ryu .22 with QD mount. The mod and mount were on my FX dreamline 500mm .22 and zero issues over 750 shots. Bought a 600mm .22 barrel for the same Dreamline and trying to shoot light slugs. Slugs are flying in crazy clockwise arc and hitting low. Without the moderator I can now get some groups. I have taken the moderator apart and closely inspected everything. Will there be visual evidence of "clipping"? What am I looking for? Thanks.

Grouping on blank paper

Today I tried shooting my Umarex SA10, Excite Econ 2 pellets, with blank paper targets (A4 paper with just a black sharpie dot) each magazine (8 rounds).

Noticed a nice improvement from the first target to the 2-3, then a couple of bad ones (lack of concentration?), then again some better ones. Last shots in double action were higher than the single action ones, but after the finger "adapted" to the new trigger pull they were quite consistent.

The gun is not shooting high as I thought, maybe just a bit. Probably I'm just doing something bad I need to understand.

For reference, grouping in the good target ones was like 5-7 cm if you exclude a couple of fliers each ones.
I need to improve and work on repeatability, if I just concentrate a little less I start shooting worse.

One thing I noticed is that I'm vertical stringing... Even in better targets, holes are nearer but vertically aligned...

Opinions? Thank you!

RTI  RTI Mora .25 caliber sniper - a mini-review

The RTI Mora April19th2025
A mini review by Joe Polanco


A couple of folks have asked me about the Mora, my likes, dislikes and general opinion of the gun overall. So, very quickly, without any detailed explanations of gun and/or it's design (this has been done at nauseam) lets jump directly to its functionality and it's pros and cons .

Is the RTI Mora perfect? Unequivocally no, of course not. In virtually anything, there always exist areas that can be improved. In the case of the Mora however,I've found very little that I would change.

Obviously,from the results I've posted and those readily found on other forums by various other shooters, the Mora's performance is, at least IME, as good as it gets given today's air gun technologies. The Mora platform is a precise, simple to work on platform which delivers supreme accuracy. The Mora is a well balanced and reasonably quiet machine whose overall fit and finish befits its high end price tag. The Mora,although capable of power ratings over 200 ft/lbs, sips rather than guzzles air and comes in a wide variety of configurations. When I judge PCPs on their "out of the box" performance, condition and quality, I do so using a rating scale from1 to 10, where 1 represents “avoid at all cost” and 10 equals “manna from heaven”. I give the Mora an overall rating of 9. Let me subtext this by saying that I've never given any gun a 10 and serious doubt that I, or any of you, will live long enough to ever experience a gun rated 10, one that emerges PERFECT out of the box.

So, what is there about the Mora not to like? What exactly are it's imperfections? For me, there are only two, very niggly points, I can think to criticize. The first is that I do not care for bottle guard (m-lok cage accessory). By comparison to the rest of the gun, this item is somewhat flimsy. The cage accessorys lack of heft is very noticeable when using it as a bi-pod mount. When used for this purpose, the slightest tap sends the entire gun vibrating like a tuning fork. Furthermore the cage/guard lacks any attachment formats other than m-lok. For those needing to ad an Arca or Picatinny accessory, you're going to need an adapter. Lastly the cage/guard unit attaches at a single point of contact on and below the trigger guard. This single point of contact further adds to the guns instability when using it as a bi-pod mounting point. However, since this an accessory and not a standard item, for me, it doesn't reflect poorly on gun in any way.

The only other "meh" I've found involves the cheek riser. The riser itself, is perfectly fine. However, the slots through which the attachment bolts pass are too short to permit the riser to be lowered sufficiently to allow me to use low or medium profile scope rings. Again, for me this is a nonissue. I simply removed the cheek riser altogether. However this issue too can be easily remedied with the use of a Dremel tool and a grinding bit to extend the slots. Neither of these “faults” really have anything to do with the gun itself and both are easily and inexpensively remedied.

All in all, I find the Mora to be a truly revolutionary product which I'm proud and confident to recommend to anyone looking for “the best their money can buy”.
