Data shot from my gun doesn't actually show a 17% difference in BC. Just for a reference here. Due to crappy weather looks like there will be an in the wind test tomorrow out to 500+ yards. :) Even at 100,200,and 300 yards the chronys theoretical data below shows decent velocity and Ft Lbs...

I've been using one of these for comparing different slugs BC and velocity consistency. Great little unit. Very happy with it. Reads every shot even in the dark. Don't assume that it reads at multiple yardages though. It takes two readings, near the muzzle and somewhere inside of 33 yards and...

Today's a year since your original post. Plus a year of "reading about presses, certain types of dies, and watching videos". Just curious what you've learned/decided. I already gave my .02

This might be considered a "true build." A Cricket 35 cal. to .25 cal. conversion. Slug only gun. The second Plenum Regulator is set at just under 120 Bar. 24 shots from a 260 Bar fill. Shoots 46-50+ gr. slugs at 86+ FPE with more available. The Balance Valve makes it extremely easy cocking...

BINGO!!!!!! I made all sorts of baffles and fillers in the past. One cone at the end of the moderator and one for the end of the LDC with a good air stripper in the moderator. Multiple baffles/cones and fillers aren't needed at all, if the end cones are made the right shape. All aluminum .035"...

You say - "ANY / ALL comments, tips, helpful input Encouraged" Then I'd say to put a balance valve with a larger poppet and transfer port opening in it. A much lighter HS. (easy cocking) and a reg. setting at 115 - 125 bar. Then you could shoot 40 gr. slugs in the 900 - 950 FPS range...

A Teflon infused powder coat works on slugs. Never tried it on pellets. Just add solvent and spray your slugs one coat and cure them in a small toaster oven. Makes them .001" larger in diameter. An even coat produces a very accurate round. Doesn't completely stop barrel fowling or increase...

I think you have some good points here. The base drag seems to be a lot bigger force than we understand. The nose profile does have some interesting properties though. Here's a photo of two groups @ 173 yards. Same POA and same slug base. Only difference was the shape of the nose profile...

Good job checking for yourself. (y) Outstanding presentation as always. Large velocity drop for 55 yards. approx. 140 FPS Your velocity ES at 50 yards is still about the same. That's good. 140 FPS loss shows how much BC does matter for down range velocity. You said: "➠ If a HP has a low...

I've done that @ 100 yards many times recently. Even @ 200 yards before. It may not be the most accurate way of getting a "true BC number". But close enough, without a time in air meter. Then there's which drag model......which app. ??? I even considered getting the $1000. FX radar with...

Good job! Custom guns are way more interesting than production guns to me. Turning an idea into a finished build is far more rewarding than just buying another PCP "pellet gun". How are you planning to finish the metal parts? Anodized, powder coat, or something else? I setup an Anodizing...

I'd follow Motorheads info. above, and Vetmx recommending normal pressures and velocity's for a small gun. The first two shots of a days shooting with a Balance Valve are DRY FIRE! After that it should work reliably, except in extreme cold weather. Some externally adjustable reg"s can be...

Has a threaded end cap at muzzle end. All Anodized aluminum. Black with electric blue ends.

I've sat with him many times shooting Ground Squirrels at 100 - 220 yards, and farther out too. He can range a yardage, adjust and shoot crazy fast. And consistently hit the Squirrel! Then change to a different yardage and hit another one. Fast and consistently accurate. This system works so...

That's the only rings I've ever used. Not the way you use them though. I put an optically centered scope in them and use the inserts to get POI to within 1 - 3 clicks of adjustment, so the scope remains optically centered @ POI. Use a Coldshot or Raven Jack Plate for elevation adjustments...

Thanks for the answers. .414" is too short for me. Oh, well.

#1. So how long is the inside of the magazine? Max. slug length. #2. Does it have a pin probe style of bolt? #3. Can you unscrew the AT full of air? - or do you have to degas the entire gun. Thanks in advance for any answers.

A&D FX120i Nice scale.

Use a Raven Jack plate, Coldshot or similar type of adjustable base. Keeps your scope optically centered.

Not sure what my HS cocking weight is. I don't have a way to measure that. It's been called "pinky cocking". As a lame reference - feels like 50% of my stock .25 cal. Cricket. The hammer itself is a stock .35 cal. Cricket hammer. You nailed it - my barrels are 24" and 25". Just finnishing a...
