Depends what I'm hunting and conditions. All small game and pests i use an airgun. Wing shooting fowl and big game all powder burners. The beauty of airgun hunting is the ability to do it often and in places a firearm isn't feasible or allowed, same reason I hunt archery.

Something I forgot to ask, being that the U3 reg is internal how hard is it to disassemble and change settings?

Appreciate all who have given feedback! It helps very much in being able to decide which platform to go for. It also makes it hard as it sounds like both are truly awesome. Realistically, 34 grain slugs in .22 are what I would want to shoot, and sounds as if both the p3 and U3 are capable of...

Hopefully I can get some input from guys who have owned either of these, but opinions without are cool too. I am interested in getting a solid, reliable and accurate high power slug shooter in 22 cal with these two being my top choices. I want to shoot 30+ grain slugs in the mid to high 900s...

I appreciate you and all the others chiming in. So based on some feedback here, I decided to play with it some more and got some interesting results. I adjusted the reg down to around 145 bar, first shot hit 905 with 22 grain pellets, then it steadily decreased until it settled to 870s no...

So sounds like the katran and krait standard share the same barrel length, is it possible the porting is larger on the krait? I feel like they should be similar enough that I should not have to be that much higher on the reg to achieve the velocities you are getting at 125 bar. Im almost...

This one is the standard (15" ish barrel) so a bit shorter than the L version. But I agree it still seems excessive. I own an Evol 15" and with around 155 bar reg I shoot the same slugs around 950 fps. I kind expected performance comparable to that.

Hey all, so I'm tuning on a friend's katran standard in 22 cal with a tube and wanted to know if anyone can tell me a couple things. Im tuning it to shoot 21 grain javelin slugs, im currently sitting at 170 bar on the reg and im maxing out around 910 fps. Now, its shooting accurate, but shot...

I only hunt with my airguns, so I too need 0 poi shifts. My two current guns are an airmaks katran compact and AAA Evol 15" both in .22 and they are solid as a rock. They get dinged and bumped constantly with 0 movement. My daystate huntsman was also rock solid as well as the jts airacuda. Imo...

When I first moved up to kalispell area and heard them talking about gophers, I thought the same thing😂 the species is a Richardsons ground squirrel, to anyone wondering they are not a prarie dog or any version of a "squeak" or "whistlepig" like the ones just west in Idaho. Ton of fun walking...

Of course, it is very simple. I would have to take pics to show but not hard at all.

I do not understand why they say that, because you can simply adjust your regulator. I adjusted mine from the factory 120 bar, to about 145 bar very easily.

I own a katran compact in .22 and LOVE it. I also would like to know where parts could be sourced from. I would love to be able to switch mine to a 177 for plinking around.

I never ended up messing with it, Instead I just upped the reg pressure to around 140-145 bar. This made the gun quieter with a nice snappy tone instead of a puff. Also, the power went up while shot count stayed the same. I get 3 mags with 18.13s going 815fps. I have no clue why airmaks would...

I have no experience with semi auto airguns, not a big fan. But I am an avid hunter and love compact guns. I would give the airmaks katran compact a hard look. I absolutely love it, mines in .22 shooting 18.13s at 830 fps. I adjusted the reg up from factory(120 bar) to 145 bar and I get 3 mags...
