RTI  RTI valves: Traditional and Assisted?

i tested an rti prophet 1 and a p3, one has the assisted and the other the old school simple valve. to my ears the p3 had the loudest hammer strike. i cannot explain why. but i prefer the original valve. which is a more simple design no extra springs and orings and a p1 is a lighter in weight riffle

Quite a bit more about your rifle if you haven't found this yet:

What is everyone shooting for slugs out of 30cal Panthera

70g evicerator slugs by dead lead. Those are my goto out of the panthera.. Ive tried all javlins, zans, h&n,knockouts,.
For long range kinda can not beat the 70g deadleads. Best i have tried.
Awsome thanks for the info! I’ve got some various Griffen slugs on the way but I’ll try those evecerators too.. would you mind sharing your reg settings etc?

FX  Pls anybody know what kind of threads are tapped under The ARCA rail of the FX Panthera on either side of the M-LOK like slot ?

Answering my own question (i think) I found some M16*4 bolts lying in my garage and tried it in there and they seem to fit. Completed my install with a little blue Loctite, Somebody please correct me if I installed incorrect thread in there.

Now I just need some scope rings high enough so that my scope does not touch the barrel and I can go shooting it .. I used one of the M-Lock provided screws in the slot and one M16*4 treads inside the second tapped holes from the end.

Brocock/BRK  I am so impressed with my Brocock/Brk Atomic that I just bought a Brocock/Brk Commander XR in .22

Congratulations! It's a slippery slope! Mine in .22 likes H&N 18s, JSB jumbo 18s, Crosman CPHPs in TP 2 or 3 and the new JSB Monster Hades in 25g. I messed around with a few of the common slugs and didn't find anything as accurate as the above mentioned pellets so I moved on and just stuck with the pellets. I only shoot @35 yds most of the time. The trigger is not impressive. Probably the stiffest trigger of all my rifles outside of the Leshiy 2. In all fairness I haven't attempted to adjust it yet, either ;)
Yes I have plenty of those pellets including the new Hades and I might even try FX 22 grain Hybrid Slugs. We'll see, I never shoot past 50 yards except for testing purposes. Thanks for the info.

FX  FX Impact M3

You can pretty much blueprint an Impact without ever spending a dime. Then once the gun is on point, shooting pellets and not constantly jacking with the gun, it can stay on point for a very long time. The last M3 I purchased, I did a one year test with it. My other two M3’s were sluggers right out the gate and were constantly under the knife until I got them dialed. My pellet M3 got a peek washer before I even shot it, proper lube, probe seating depth check, glued CF sleeve then proper reassembly. With all three of my M3’s, I found small issues with how they were set up. Not horrific issues that cause glaring problems, but they needed corrected.

I tuned that gun in one session for a certain hunting pellet and never touched it for around a year. The gun was stellar. Took it hunting all season many months after initial setup and cleaned house with it. After that test I lost my mind and the gun became a guinea pig for barrel testing. It’s now a pellet/slug shooter without having to touch anything other than my wheel. And still no hot rod parts.

DIY Chronograph

It took me a year to get my bugs out - i cant emphasize enough how hard it is to do the required measurements with the required precision.
Using a generic operating system/libraries will typically lead to tears, low level programming is really required with a real in depth knowledge of the underlying hardware behaviour etc. There are a LOT of workarounds required :(
Definitely a hard problem but I wouldn't dissuade anyone from pursing it. Especially someone with a better background in circuitry design than me. My troubles weren't in the software side. The micro controller stuff is my bread and butter. That part was working fine. The issues I was having were definitely at the hardware level because I was able to measure them with the osciliscope before they even made it to the micro controller.

Epic  My Epic "TWO" adventure

That hole look much the same as many 5 shot holes i made at 30 M on Sunday.
I have now packed some H&N pellets to try out too next Monday when weather seem to become OK again.

Mind you i am also a bit over my pellet fab and so since i am at these low pressures i have also thrown in a tin of 13 gr Zan slugs to finish off the next session.
