Thought it's time I do my first post here with an Indian Myna taken this morning at close range (26m).

I have the FX DRS Tactical .22cal FAC version in 600mm, topped off with DNT Zulus v2, shooting 18.13gr JSB pellets at 914fps. Had it out on the range the other day and it shoots like a laser....

Daytime longer distance and nighttime rat hunts coming soon....😎

What hardcase is that? Dig your setup.

From Cape Town, but living in California. I have a standard Plano case from Utah airguns for mine, but think I will have a look into having something custom made like yours (I'm sure it's pretty affordable in SA compared to the US). Looks sick.

Shaunper's case that he linked looks to be a Vevor 42" hard case by the way. I just got one myself lol. I'm quite sure that it's also what RTI ships their Moras in, just with custom foam.

Sweet! Checked it out and seems like a good quality product for the price. You happy with yours?

Very. Here's my Katran in it. Air Shootist gave a review of it on his channel comparing it to the Harbor Freight case if you feel like going through a referral link to help him out.

Mmm interesting....I'd be keen to hear about your slug experience... Shot count for me was way too low, like 14shots....and I don't like filling up every few shots...

Reg anything from 150-160 and then play with hammer... I tried Zan 20gr, FX Hybrid 22gr, Javelin 18gr (the pellet liner love these, however, they're not yet commercially available, only test phase, so we buy in small batches), and then also tried Javelin 21gr and 23gr....

got the gauge for my plenum.Apx ~115b on the 500. I went 23 clicks up from the 18.13s 880 at ~92b~

Now its 21.14 baracuda match 5.53@ 901.
Getting still ~32shots per fill. Still pleasant sounding. Good accuracy.

Sounds good.... I just decided yesterday to order the SHP plenum and side bracket for the regulator guage. Lots of benefits coming from the bigger plenum according to my research.

I'm going to tune for 21, 23 or 25 grain slugs, as this is about the limit for the pellet liner... but also because I don't really want to go slug liner in a platform that is meant for pellets and lighter weight slugs...

I'll be sure to post again with some feedback.

I spent many hours. Many fills many shots seeing just what my gun can do. And searching for a good slug tune.

125b
16 clicks up from.115

JSB knockout .217 25.39. 860-863fps stacking them in one hole at 25. But that's as far as I can shoot in the dark. Its shooting these just as well as jumbo heavy.
It did cut my shot count significantly. At about 24-25 shots now

Have you done this tune with the SHP plenum installed or just the standard HP plenum?
