Other Which 30 cal

[fatkid21]

I have a Challenger Pro 30 and I usually prefer shooting my Gauntlet 30. Even though the AEA has a wider range of adjustment.

The long barrel 30 is going to be pretty crazy shooting anything other than very heavy slugs unless you turn that thing down a lot.

The Guantlet 30 has perfect power for shooting 65 grain slugs.

Did you have to do much work to your gauntlet or you feel it was ready to go out of the box? Wanting a gauntlet 30 myself

I love my gauntlet. Out the box it is a great gun. With the modifications Its even better and I didn't even change the trigger. Right now I have my reg set to 2900 psi and I'm shooting the 56gr griffin at 1000 fps with a high of 1006 fps. If I switch to the 85gr bt they go at 860 fps at 140 fpe. With the 56gr I get over 40 shots.

mainevent777 has a really nice setup

But I think the most important modification on the G30 is a good barrel band. This greatly improves consistency in point of impact.

And you'll probably want a moderator unless volume is not an issue. I use the Donny "FX" small and cheap one on mine and it works surprisingly well.

You'll be rather impressed out of the box. The trigger has a ton of creep but its actually nice once you get used to it.
