On a Regular Length Prophet I/II— What's the Biggest Bottle Possible

▪ Without preventing a large diameter silencer

▪ Without taking the shroud off


As I don't yet have a regular length Prophet I or II, I need to know the maximum length the bottle can have — in inches or cm.

It is highly unlikely I will buy a bottle from RTI.... — Maybe you even have a link to the AliExpress product?


Thanks,

Matthias

I'm probably going to regret this later, but I'm going to let my Rattler 357 go. I've had it since last year and have only shot it like twice. Just don't have the place to shoot it. It's basically new. I've recently got into archery and spend most of my free time shooting my bow. I'm asking 2200 shipped TYD. I'm open to offers. I've got plenty of great references on AGN. So deal with confidence. Can get better pictures later . Thanks for looking.

Yesterday I saw the post on UA blowing out RAW HM1000x chassis models, and then I noticed that a whole load of guns had been added to their 'Sale and Used' product category pages. More than I ever recall seeing on the UA site.

A lot of the guns are listed as used, some like the RAWs mentioned above are new, others are listed as demos, and still others are listed as 'open box' (which to me means likely discounted new old stock).

Judge for yourself if you see any bargains. I thought that the Caiman X in black wood/.25 cal/Gen1 for $699 was a deal so I grabbed it.

Good luck.

This is a one-off 24" .177 barrel that fits a first gen Taipan Veteran.

Lothar Walther, 1:17.7 with polygonal rifling. Slightly choked.

LW blank has been sleeved up to 15mm with carbon fiber and epoxied on brass end pieces.

Muzzle end has 1/2x20 threads and breech end has standard Taipan breech block threads.

Much lighter than full steel OEM barrel. Makes a Veteran balance very differently.

The carbon fiber sleeve consists of one piece that is 19.75" and a second piece that is 2.25" (see photo).

Due to the design of the Veteran, will work with a .22 Veteran or a .177 Veteran. Vets have extended pin probes so the larger diameter of the probe never makes it to the bore, so a .22 probe can be used with this .177 barrel. Vets also have a transfer port that is separate from the barrel, allowing you to use a .22 transfer port with a .177 barrel.

Please note that if using a .22 Veteran with this barrel, short .177 projectiles tip into the large dual transfer ports and make loading more difficult. If planning on dropping this into a .22 Veteran I'd recommend projectiles at least as long as a JSB 10.34.

$115 shipped. PayPal F&F or check/money order and we wait til the funds clear.

After the extraordinary experience of my Wolverines and Delta Wolf in .25 Cal with NSA 29 and 33.5 grain slugs, I decided to try the NSA 17.5 grain on my Red Wolf .22 Cal.

This Red Woof is EXTREMLY accurate with the H&N Barracudas. I am expecting to have same good accuracy at longer distance with the NSA 17.5 grain. The .25 NSA slugs are too heavy for that rifle, but they work great with the Wolverine HP HR .22 Cal.

As soon as I receive the slugs I will try them and will share the results.

As soon as the Altaron M24 was posted in the classified, I clicked on it and wondered a loooong time, if I should buy it.

The performance for extreme long range must be amazing.
The Altaros slugs have been made with this gun in mind, they come from the same brand.


But, in the end, I did not buy it.
However, I wanted to see how quickly it sells, considering that it is hard to even get it in the US.
➠ Surprise: It's still available on the classifieds....


And I wondered if my own reason for not buying it have something to do with why it hasn't sold yet.....

I like "black guns".
I like "modern looking guns" — not "traditional looking guns"
I like bullpups (less bulk, less weight, while same performance as traditional shape)
For a significant shotcount I want to attach a bottle (in the size that suits me)

And the Altaros checks NONE of those boxes .



𑇰 ••• I remember the designer and builder talking about being an engineer that engineers things that work good* (as opposed to things that also look good).

➠ Too bad.

Mora, here I come....

Matthias


PS: I hope it sells soon. It must be a gun that shoots amazingly.



See the WTS thread with photos here:


*for the English majors: "work well"

I'm just getting past the break-in period (about a tin of pellets) with my .22/600mm DRS and starting to look for the best pellet. Looks like the factory tuned to an 18g pellet.


Thought I'd share the numbers for anyone curious about the stability FX DRS.

JTS 18.1g -
A 911fps
H 914
L 910
ES 4
SD 1.7
FPE 33.3
GROUP (5 shots, 40 yards) .358 CTC

AA 18.0g -
A 916
H 919
L 914
ES 6
SD 2.2
FPE 33.5
GROUP .332 CTC

JSB 18.13g -
A 917
H 921
L 915
ES 7
SD 2.7
FPE 33.8
GROUP .338 CTC

I found that my DRS groups best with a light/loose hold.

Cheers!

Cannot Get some pellets into the barrel. Looks like the barrel was not cut centered and when closing the barrel it clips the pellet. Trying 14 to 18 grain pellets some will not go into barrel. Any suggestions or should I send it back?

LNIB Nightforce NX-8 4-32x50 rifle scope. The scope has only been used on a benchrest rifle - has never been out in the weather or used hunting. It is a FFP scope with ZeroStop and DigIllum reticle illumination. The fully illuminated MOAR reticle has 1 MOA hash marks. Includes NF labeled Tennebrax scope covers, 4 headed allen wrench for setting stops, cap on the windage turret, and I am including a Vortex cant level. Scope has no scratches or dings (see Photos).

I am asking $1400 to your door for this scope. I am not benchrest shooting anymore and want to move on. Willing to include the FX adjustable rings for another $50. PayPal FF preferred.

Ok thought I would share some of my BR observations. # 1- 5,6 yrs ago top guns shot from sighters “no flags” no need they said. Now almost all the top shot use them or read others.
# 2- almost all during that same time period only shot off bi-pods and a rear bag “if that” now most use a front rest or combination of bi-pod and rear rest to manipulate windage and elevation to a finite degree. This was not needed 5-6yrs ago according to the professionals.
#3- Note: these are just my observations and in no way dictates a winner from middle of the pack. Hell I used a rest and made the most stupid basic rookie mistake I shot 3 shots in a record bull because I didn’t drop down fully (I shoot bottom to top) and make sure I was on a sighter!!! I’ve shot both center fire BR and 25m BR so what does that say…

I went to an indoor range for the first time today - wanted to shoot with no wind. Set up at 50 yards with N50 practice targets. After sighting in I was hitting 10's and X's for most of the first 17 shots. The next two shots were almost outside the box and number 20 scored a 5. From that point on it was literally hit or miss with another 5, then 9, a wide 5, then 10, 10. Why in the world would this happen? Speeds were consistently in the 865~870 fps range. I'm shooting a .25 caliber R.A.W HM1000X (Rapid Air Worx) in an MPA frame. By the way, pellets were FX 34 grain weighed and sorted and also AEA Center Punch 33.9 grain.

Two more things - I believe R.A.W. sends these out at about 910~920 fps which seems too fast for Diabolo pellets so I tuned it back to 870-ish fps. Any thoughts on that as well? Also, adjusting the hammer spring has almost no affect on pellet speed. I know it's used for minor adjustments but fully out to fully in barely makes a 1-2 fps difference - bad hammer spring?

TIA for comments.

I’d love to see everyone’s favorite light weight or compact carry airguns. Something you can throw in a pack or carry for miles.

I walk my dog for about an hour a day. I carry a airgun with me every time. Most times I carry this P-Rod. Sometimes my Notos. Out to 50 yards either of those should be able to crack a golf ball. Doesn’t weigh me down at all.

Here’s my P-Rod and couple Dog Walk Photos

Hey everyone.... I've been out of the airgun scene for the past couple years and now getting back into it. I still have my Taipan Veteran .22 Compact that's been a great little gun. I'm contemplating getting another bullpup in .177 for lower powered shooting.

Seen a couple new offerings from some other brands that have caught my attention such as the Brocock Ghost, Brocock Ranger / Atomic / Pathfinder and, RAW Micro Hunter.

Wondering if anybody has any direct experience with a Veteran vs any of these other guns I listed. Just trying to figure out if I should try and find a used Veteran .177 compact to play with or explore some of these new offerings. The accuracy and trigger on the Veteran sets the bar pretty high, at least for me anyways.

Any thoughts or insight is appreciated!

I guess these changes have been available for a month, but i just discovered that Skout updated their software for the Epoch/Evo
the Release Trigger is now an option available in the "Fire Mode" when you go into the rifle's Firmware programming...after you download the programming

I have never used a trigger system like this.
I have read a little about it and not certain of the pros/cons of using this system.
Can anyone please share their experience and thoughts on using a Release Trigger System
Thanks
Mike
