I still had about 5 FX (JSB) 44.8 single pellets left that I put over the chrono and they were going supersonic. Is yours tuned down?
Yeah I had K9AIR (member here and lives close by) go through and tune mine for pellets. I bought it used and it was set up for over 100 ft/lbs. The reg was setup for the big plenum orientation, the reg was set really high and it had a heavy spring in it. He flipped the reg to small plenum orientation, turned it down to 145 or 150 bar and put the stock spring back in. That is how the pellet tune was achieved. He’s a great guy and does awesome job for cheap. If you don’t feel comfortable doing it shoot him a pm.
Well I did get this as a slug gun but wondered about the pellets. I'm getting 115 fpe with AVS 62.5's with the factory tune, and really like how they group at 50 and 100. I'm also willing to set the reg and HS myself but am torn between leaving it a slug monster or shooting both. Pellets are cheaper than slugs for sure.
Good question, haven't chrono'd either, guess I should do that, too busy having fun shooting them.
Well if you haven't touched the gun since getting it and it's a .30 700mm ? It should be getting over 100 fpe unless you got it from Toni and he tuned it down..Good question, haven't chrono'd either, guess I should do that, too busy having fun shooting them.
Well, here's the stats for a 7-shots (JSB 44.75) just chrono'd. Mean: 986.2 FPS, SD: 2.73, 96.6 FPE. Purchased from Krales, high power setting. Close enough, I'd say. Devastating on crows. WM
I hunted crow many years ago but got skunked most of the time no matter what I used. Nice work! about 100 fpe is good for such lite projectiles. How stable are the jsb's at 50 yards? Figuring 100 wasn't tested. I'm sure you had to sight in to be able twap those crows....
