This week I pretty much ran out of excuses for not at least trying to make an airgun video. It all started with ordering one of these Medusa spinning targets. I really just needed to do some chrony work to determine if (and at what distance) I might be able to shoot at it with my Royale.
Well, one thing led to another and the video became more of a "project" than I expected! Sorry, I know 22 minutes is waaaay to long for a gun video. Anyways, it was a ton of fun to produce. I truly needed some motivation to get me out shooting in this really cold weather - it was 8-9 degrees when filming this!
Summary data:
JSB 14.3
Hammer spring tension = 2.75 turns out
High power = 900 fps
Medium power = 704 fps
Low power = 550 fps
JSB 14.3
Hammer spring tension = 2.50 turns out
High power = 947 fps
Medium power = 722 fps
Low power = 570 fps
JSB 18.1
Hammer spring tension = 2.50 turns out
High power = 900 fps
Crosman Premier Domes 14.3
Hammer spring tension = 2.50 turns out
High power = 928 fps
Medium power = 715 fps
Low power = 560 fps
** Velocity at 35 yards = 480 fps / 7.4 fpe **
