I have found that the MRD’s prefers a greater speed, do to the shape. Generally the 16&18gr prefer 800-880fps for stability but the MRD’s pref 930+ at least in my gun. I believe that the shape makes them between a pellet and a slug.

The V3 that I have does well with the 217’s but prefer the 218’s . Mine is set up for the 218 KO’s 25gr @930 outstanding groups and a lot of shots. I have not tried the H&N yet or the zans just nsa that did well but the KO’s hands down are the best so far.

The only time that I have experienced the air dumping is if I shoot to light of ammo. For example my is in 22cal and the 25gr & 21gr pellets works great but if shoot the 18gr at some point it will dump all air . I have not yet shot full auto ! My problem is with 18gr on semi, so I don’t shoot...

I agree the semi is a great advantage, not to mention when the safety is off your ready. Mine is a 22cal and yes the first shot is on, some of my other airguns hit low on the first shot or if it sits with out use for any length of time and after a fill . My only complaint is that I go through a...

So far my experience with the nsa 25gr was good and the 25gr KO’s 218 outstanding! I have heard that the zans H&N’s are best but so far the KO’s are hard to beat at least with my V3.

I have just purchased a Vulcan 3 .22 and is a great slug shooter. I have had it about three or more weeks ago for the purpose of shooting slugs. I now have about 1500 shots in it and it really loves the KO’s 25gr 218 , I tried 217 KO’s with great results as well as nsa. I have not yet tried H&n...

Mine is now three weeks old and about 1300 shots through it and has broke in with a ver consistent 935fps with 25gr KO’s 218. And of course the jsb 25 pellets as well with the same poi as the slugs out to 125yrds . It’s getting outstanding accuracy and a great shot count. But it did need to be...

l have a sidewinder 22cal but not a compact with a sto faux suppressor that works great in keeping it at least no louder than the internal noise. An amazing gun I can shoot 25gr @ 940 and when I go inside a barn I turn the power wheel down to 800fps so I don’t damage anything in the barn. The...

Mine also likes the 18gr, and so far @870 groups better than I thought at 75yrds. It’s a little loud but with the sto suppressor it’s manageable.

Sorry for the previous mine is the etr not the btr , I have no experience with the btr . Sorry

Yes! But not in moa . Very bright and clear in all powers, if you spend a lot of time shooting it’s easy on the eye. The only thing is that the scope is heavy. I believe that ares is the best buy for the buck. Hope that helps

That’s nice to have an airgun thats ready to go with out cocking, not to mention that quick backup shot or shots if needed. I like having a airgun that’s ready to go.

I wanted to check all my options with ammo that I have, and increase shot count plus reduce noise. The noise of the action loud however the sto falx moderator works well for the blast ,and it’s as quiet as it can get. I did notice shooting a row of targets adjusting the power wheel that one turn...

Has anyone else with a sidewinder have any luck with lighter ammo? I have recently received a sidewinder 22cal, and does well with the 25g but I tried the 18gr and have immersive results. The 18gr @850 at least for my gun does outstanding out to 75yrds ,didn’t try any further yet. I have shot...

I have also received false results from my chrony! With my chrony I only could receive accurate results on cloudy days? I think that the sun was creating false readings off of the steel defusers supports , at least with the chrony that I have. Try shooting groups you’ll know right away...
