Will let you know when the rifle gets here, but it looks like it should. The specs say a 700cc bottle will fit, though that is a carbon bottle.Does the aluminium 500cc bottle fit?

Beautiful machine/inlet work!Please ignore the mess... here are a few pictures of the inletting. This was taken in the spare bedroom of the house or my shooting room.....depending on if anyone is coming over to the house or not. The bed makes for a GREAT platform for holding things

Agreed! The machining on the chassis is wonderful. There are screw holes that had set screws in them durrring the anodizing process. As there is no coating inside the threads, so no worries about right threads.Beautiful machine/inlet work!
Yeah there is some girth to the forend!The machine works looks excellent! Whooowee, that bad boy is W I D E !
Is that the tungsten color they have?View attachment 446794View attachment 446795View attachment 446796
Chassis is in hand, and man is it solid! The original Rapid will fit if I were to remove the safety. The Dawson won't fit due to the bottom fill adapter. So that means I have to wait for Martin to call, though I have been playing with the chassis anyway.
Hopefully another week or so I am hoping before I get the Hm1000x. Should be one heck of a gun!
I have the midnight bronze, the tungsten is darker I believe.Is that the tungsten color they have?
Could you put a couple more pics of the chassis? I have to choose between the tungsten, midnight bronze and the FDE. The midnight bronze looked more brown on the website picture. I don't think the pictures on the Utah airguns website is a good representation of the actual color.I have the midnight bronze, the tungsten is darker I believe.
So Martin will do two tunes with different regulators and hammer springs? He is going to build me a .22 cal very soon and he said I need to choose between a pellet or slug tune if I wanted extreme accuracy, he said one tune for both pellets and slugs would just be kinda accurate. But if I could get him to do two completely different tunes and keep the extreme accuracy that would be ideal.I think you will love it.
Martin did a adjustment on mine to have more power..did some machining and changed the valve and hammer spring.
i asked Martin for another regulator, since i do not have a guage to accurately measure regulator pressures, for when i want to switch back to lighter pellets.
I haven't tried any slugs at 30g at 1000fps, but the rifle will do it ..going to blast a lot of air, so not the most effiecient.
Maybe ask if there is a larger bottle that can be used without making it overly bulky so you can fit through the barricades

I got lucky having Martin tune my .22 for 18gr JSB @ 970fps and it also shoots NSA 17.5gr @ 950-ish and NSA 20.2 @ 920-ish very accurately on the same tune, it can be done on one tune but I would think each gun/barrel will decide that.Could you put a couple more pics of the chassis?
