Awesome group at 50y with the 1720T today. Beyond the PHFT use but to showcase a point. If you can find one and I imagine the airgun revisions version will do the same. Very slights winds occasionally and 8gr pellet at 12fpe. Good enough to shoot the rifle course

You’re right, THAT is an awesome group. And, the lightweight pellets are a mirror of the winds.

I shoot a Brocock Atomic XR .177 at 12 Ft-lb and it is a laser with 10.3s, QYS 9.56 (but the catch the wind) and 13.4s. I have an Athlon 4-12 on it and I just leave the stock adapter on it so I can easily thread on the stock and I've got a carbine. My grandkids love it as it is so adjustable for LOP.

I have shot a RAW Pistol and the RAW does have a better trigger, but I have worked on mine and it is about 15 oz, the lightest I believe is safe. For Gkids, this is as light as I would go.

The Pistol/carbine is bullet proof. I get at least 3 mags per fill.

If I was to play with it, I'd set it at 12- ft lb with the transfer port set at half. Then for hunting pests i'd open it up for a little more power. I haven't tried this yet because it shoots so accurate as it is.

Here is what the .177 Atomic chrono readings will look like with various pellet weights if you add the AOA $190.00 Air Superiority Power adjuster/wheel option.

3 transfer port options plus the power wheel.
Note that all the below charted chrono numbers are with the transfer port three options.
In the end i have chosen pwr wheel at 8 = "max"
I found the best blend / results with the above wheel/transfer port combo.
