Why more ?

[SteveV]

I could have purchased an Avenger and A LOT of pellets for what I have in this gun, but visualising, re-searching, and slowly acquiring the individual components was much MORE fun than just buying "off the rack" -

And yes, it's all based on an inexpensive co2 pistol, married with paintball parts -





edit: MORE

Like a delicious Italian dish, the results are far better than the sum of the ingredients.

However for me, accuracy is more interesting than power

I'll second that opinion that accuracy (precision) is not only more "interesting" than power, but also MUCH more important!

Especially when trying to hit small targets like Chipmunks!

Benjamin Fortitude Gen 2 .177, SWFA SS 20x fixed scope, 760fps, +13fpe@muzzle, 10fpe@impact, CPUM 10.5 grains @ 27 yards. Shot passed through. Target was DRT.

Don't know, maybe it's a 50s things... but the one thing I wish I had more of... is time...

As far as power goes, for the airguns, I'll take accuracy.

accuracy with consistency for me..
