NEW 750 THREAD...NEW DEVELOPMENTS
- Thread starter Hepotter
- Start date
I initially used high rings, but switched to medium rings, plenty of room using the magazine.
Sweet looking gun! That makes me happy to hear the medium height rings will work. Wes posted this morning that the guns should be at Veradium on the 27th. Hopefully the USPS moves them through a little faster than normal. The anticipation is killing me!!!!

The shipment of 750's is now clearing Canadian customs...per Veradium Air (a reliable source). Delivery is expected at his shop in less than a week. Veradium Air is dedicating his entire staff to custom cleaning/fixing/accurizing and generally overhauling the 750's to become accurate and reliable shooters. Not a bad deal for $58 bucks!!!
Factoid: The 750's have a shorter barrel than the 700's, to make room for baffling added to muffle discharge noise. Good for happy neighbors, but limits max power potential. Still, 700 fps for a pistol is not to be sneezed at. Back in the day my HW 55 break-barrel was classified as a "Magnum" at 700 fps, and nothing I shot stayed alive after being hit...and this was with a .117 caliber, so don't shoot anyone in the butt with this thing because it will change the way they walk!
Quite frankly, I'd rather have happy neighbors with a gun that will guarantee tight groups and a 100% kill ratio at 40 yards for backyard nuisance birds, mammals, snakes, etc. For you power hungry guys/gals...Wes is asking about getting 750's with longer barrels. The shroud won't be longer, but the potential power increase could be quite substantial.
I'll be posting some solid information and pics very soon now that the guns are out of Canadian customs...stay tuned!

I agree that silence is golden. I have PLENTY more powerful guns to use if need be. I also plan on using a Tanto from DonnyFL. It's awesome to hear they are almost in the good ol USA. I have no doubts Brian will get them sorted out and shipped out ASAP. Thanks for the update Hootie.

Those baffles definitely make it backyard friendly when setup at 12 fpe. Would be nice if Wes can have the longer pp750 barrels threaded for 1/2”unf.
In its stock form I’m loving this pistol carbine. With a little trigger work, polishing hammer, and chopping 2 coils off HS, makes this pistol a fine shooter. I’m kinda happy Wes’ shipment took a while. While waiting bought a .22 from Krale a month ago and I’ll have a .177 coming from Wes. If they had a .25 I’d buy that too

So far in my testing I have a 25 yard zero and its shooting JSB 15.89's and Hades very well, along with polymags.
Been having to stay close to home with the fires that are burning so 25 yards is all I'm working with right now, but in the next couple days, I'll stretch it out to 30 - 40 yards, which is all I really want out of it, actually 25 yards this gun has been an absolute blast to shoot.
I have a DonnyFL Koi on it, its absolutely quiet, all you can hear is the pellet hitting the target.

I've only been filling to 3K,but I'll fill it up and do a full shot count and see what it'll do.

Thanks. I'm just try to keep my mind occupied when it comes to this gun versus obsessing on WHEN will it be delivered! This has been one looooong Christmas eve for this kid!

@bearair Filled to 250 bar(3600 psi) and got 50 shots down to around 110 bar. Mind you my pistol is set at 12 ft lbs and came stock at a little over 13. I’m not 100% but I think mine starts to fall off the reg at 110 bar(yours may be set differently). I am still in shock at how accurate this $200 pistol is. I’m an ok shot with a pistol and it’s damn near pellet on pellet @25 yards. Someone with better skills could put pellets thru the same hole. I’ll post some groups tomorrow

50 shots! Wow that is great news. So I'll probably be looking at 30 to 40 shots with my 22. Can't wait to hear about the accuracy. Thanks for the info.

Also I don’t know if it affects my shot count but I cut off 2 coils from the spring. You’ll see when you take that spring out, it’s looonggg

...as a person who has purchased an Ataman AP16 (three times now) I disapprove of this thread as it makes me feel foolish and gullible…

And rightfully so Hapo, and we all grieve with you...but your dog still loves you!!!
As a rule, good pistols and good women are few in number, and generally very expensive to own. A good dog, however, is worth it's weight in gold! All it wants is your attention and your scraps to eat.
Remember, "God" spelled backwards is "Dog"! Both will forgive you for just about anything...women not so much!!!
That's been my experience.

I'm having Brian go through it and do the initial tuning. He told me they will be using the 15.89gr jsb's and or the hades pellets which are the same weight to achieve 700fps. I'm hoping it likes the el cheapo CPHP's since I have 11,000 stashed away from the break barrel days. I'm hesitant to mess with it much myself since it looks quite a bit more complicated than my marauders/armadas.

That’s a good power tune for the pp750. I haven’t tried to max it out yet and maybe never will. I like the low recoil at 12 fpe.
Here’s my best group yesterday with the 750
BEST PELLET: 5 shots @25 yards shooting 14.3 JSB (5.52)
Most groups are slightly larger than that one or sometimes slightly smaller.
5 shot group with CPHP 14.3 (2 in same hole)
I’ve shot mine in pistol format since day 1 with a BSA Edge 2-7 pistol scope. I hate the look and feel of that flimsy wire stock
