2024 Northeast Airgun Classic Results

Yup. Good scores. I was only looking at the finals shooting 44.75 JSB .30 for the three tournaments that he won compared to his score with 50 grain AEA .30 at the NAC. Seems he “fixed” what wasn’t broken? 😉
We tested the 50 gr and it consistently did better than the 44 gr. We took some risk going into this competition modifying our prototype guns. As always we're trying to improve it. Before going to NAC, our regulator was sticking so we decided to machine down the slightest amount of the o'ring groove. We tested it and it worked awesome. We made additional ones and sent it to our shooters. Thayne, Val, Jeremey. Well the temperature in Florida is a lot warmer than in New Hampshire :) The cold shrunk the o'ring and now with a deeper o'ring groove, didn't work too well for the reg. It wasn't until after the first card that we realized this and spent the night fixing it. Compare Val and Jeremey's day 2 cards and see what the Panda can do. Thayne's gun was still creeping so he made last minute decision to use Bin's gun. Given that we were in an Airbnb, we had no place to sight in or test the gun. Production gun's scope rail has built in 30 MOA compared to the 0 in the prototype. We are super grateful John gave us 15 mins to site in the scope. I think given the circumstances leading up to the finals Thayne did really well. Bench numbers definitely plays an important part hence you have to draw for them. PJ, Thayne, Nickoli and Keith sat next to each other and they got a lot of tail wind. All great shooters and any of them could've won really. Now that production version is available and built to our liking. No more tinkering! The reg in the prototype was from existing guns not specific to the RP. The production version has all parts designed specifically for RP. Overall great match by North East Airguns!

New Falcon X50

Falcon told me the 503x was intended for 16x HFT due to the different cam design used on the parallax turret. The 505x is intended for the classes that shoot higher magnification than 16x....
I know the 503x is the X50FT version and the 504x what I have is the X50T is a long range F-class version up to 1000 meters.
Interestingly I tried at my 22LR range focusing between 40 to 60 meters and even that mine X50T had a decent travel in between. The focusing travel started slowing down beyond 150. I had no chance to compare the two scopes focusing side-by-side.
Now the new scope x50i just up to be released, the 34mm tube is a different vs 30 on older models, I would assume for shorter distances but the bigger tube = more light is kind of better for - depth of view - more detailed focusing range ??? Anyway I will compare side-by-side when arrives.
I will be short for one scope, I would have a good use for it anyway.

FX  Fx drs

Making the DRS or any other rifle fit in a Bolt action stock made for the Remington 700 is going to require a lot of modification to the action and barrel channel. It can be mocked up but just isn’t practical. I just stocked my DRS 600 in wood and copied the grip from my GRS Dreamline. It was the easiest inletting job I have ever done. All the lines of the inletting are straight with no tapper in the action or barrel. I set the wood up in my vertical mill and inlet the whole thing with a 1/2” and a 1/8” bit In less than two hours. I have another 6 hours shaping the blank mostly with power tools and different rasps. It is in the final sanding stage now so another half day I will have it all done. It is coming out really nice. The DRS platform really shines in a wood stock. My wood stock which is soft curly maple is only 2 pounds heavier than the synthetic stock. There isn’t really a noticeable difference of the gun in hand between the two. The DRS barrel is so light so most of the weight is in the rear half of the gun. This is just opposite of a typical PB deer rifle with a heavy steel barrel. Everyone is raving about how light the DRS is and how nice a hunting gun it will make. But not me . I personally like a slightly barrel heavy gun for offhand shooting which comes in to play in hunting scenario when a rest isn’t available. I have been shooting my DRS offhand and I simply can not shoot it as well as most of my other guns especially my PB guns. It’s too light . So I’m going to be adding weight in the barrel channel of the stock to replicate what I am used too. it might wind up a 8 or 9 pound gun. It looks like a typical bull barrel PB rifle , it might benefit to feel like one too. i know others will have different opinions. I dont have a picture of the stock at it latest stage so I will post one next week when it’s finished. I think you will see what I’m talking about.
