Bought the Epic 2 in .25 cal 1 week ago and just had a couple of days out.
Choosed the tube version with Cz Barrel, but also bought the bottle conversion which should be here in 2/3 weeks and waiting for the Lw barrel to come tomorrow morning. Its an heavy and long set up, comes in handy with prone or stick shooting, not really a gun you can shoot off hand.
The gun is showing great power potential, I shot the Zan 41 gr with the reg at 150 at 1025 fps easy, needles to say they do not get stabilized by the cz barrel
The Cz Barrel shots very well as aspected but anything higher than 35/36 gr won't get proper stabilized: for example the Zan 37 gr is just beyond this weight limit and shows good groups but tons of big flyers, on the other hand the Zan 35 gr at 1030 fps are great and you can see from the pic the wider 5 shots group at 50 m is with the barrel clean, the tightest 5 shots group is the other 5 shots of 35 gr at 1030 fps
I shot few groups at 100 m due to high winds this week, the 35 gr were showing only horizontal dispersion and I got 2/3 cm groups in the wind.
It has a 9 fps slower first shot, so I did not check at what distance the Poi will be affected but I know Epic is already aware of the problem and trying to fix it. The problem can be fixed giving a click or two depending on the distance.
Looking forward to receive the Lw barrel tomorrow and starting some test with heavier Slugs like 41/46 gr. I'm really pleased at the moment.
