    New RAW TM1000x - first range outing

    Zack Re. With or without moderator in reference to your last sentence. Wanted to get back to you about using the Impulse Air 2000 .22 cal moderator vs. my initial testing without any moderator. When Martin was recently testing my rifle with the 13.4g 845 FPS tune at 50y, he told me that my...

    New RAW TM1000x - first range outing

    Thanks Mike. The rear Protektor bag is great for my BR use. I use the "ears" on the rear of the bag to align my butt stock and try and do everything possible to start out straight and level. I do need a smaller bag so I can get lower in my rear setup. Future belated gift for Father's Day😊

    New RAW TM1000x - first range outing

    Good luck with the new gun Paul! Post some groups (and pics) at 100y when you break it in.

    New RAW TM1000x - first range outing

    Thanks Thomas for the kind words. The 13.4g is doing much better for me than the 16.2g, as others have experienced also. It will be interesting to see how it will do at 810-815 FPS for N50 cards. I think I got a lil’ lucky.

    New RAW TM1000x - first range outing

    Tried the FX 13.4 'trash cans' at 50Y, light wind. First N50 card with this rifle. Would not even bother in any real wind. Also got anew Impulse Air .22cal moderator. Pellets flying at 850 FPS when I shot this card, but dialed it down to 810-815 FPS for 30 and 40Y challenge targets.

    30-Yard Challenge

    Good tip. I ordered my jam nut from FX- USA a few years back for my Royale 400 .22 caliber. My HST nut was moving and velocity changing. This jam nut locks the HST nut in solid. I dropped my RAW .177 TM1000X down from 850 FPS to 813 FPS today with the 13.4g.

    RAW 1000 for benchrest shooting

    I need to work on my technique, but very nice to shoot. Puts a smile on my face. https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/30-yard-challenge.1214772/page-121#post-1757724

    30-Yard Challenge

    Went to the range this morning and shot my RAW TM1000X .177 with a Sightron 36X fixed mag 2FP scope. I shot a total of nine 30Y cards; three challenge and six Masters cards. I just got the rifle back from Martin last Friday, and today was the first outing with the revised tune. Shooting...

    RAW 1000 for benchrest shooting

    Hey Bob Just sayin’ hi. I was just revisiting this old thread, and it’s just a little over three years since you posted the initial thread. Since my original responses, I recently purchased a RAW TM1000X .177 from Martin. My intent is to use it for the 30 and 40y Masters Target Challenges...

    You guys are off the charts!! These are scores I can only dream about!

    30-Yard Challenge

    Yes, but there is a big difference between single hole and ‘ragged’ hole that could stretch to one++ inches. Again, 50Y is one thing, 150-200y is a mile with an air gun.

    30-Yard Challenge

    I see you just joined the AGN forum. Welcome aboard. I have to say, I am truly amazed if “anyone” could shoot single hole multiple groups at 100y with an air rifle outside. Literally that would be 1/4” 5-shot groups outside with wind at 100Y. 150Y would be spectacular, and I have never seen...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Remarkable for a 40y Masters! Joe - I haven’t shot a 190 or higher for months with the 40y Masters cards. You have that Thomas .177 dialed in here.

    30-Yard Challenge

    Dillon - fantastic shooting! You made this look too easy. It’s supposed to take you weeks and months before getting a ‘200’ score. 😀 Especially, since this is your very first card. Tom

    30-Yard Challenge

    One of my favorite TV shows in the mid 2000 years was “Sons of Anarchy.” Jax Teller was the leader of the California gang. You look like one of the guys who should be riding in their motorcycle club. Not sure if you watched the series ( 7 seasons), but it was a great show. That bike is sweet!

    Results Meeker Sportsman Club 6th N50 match of the outdoor season, Marion, OH

    When I saw Cooper’s score, I thought wow! He is just two points behind Dad and his 36 X’s are seriously good vs. all the adults that he competed with at the match. I think he had the 2nd most X’s! Great story here and it’s obvious everyone enjoys the camaraderie.
