.224 air gun
- Thread starter mercado

How about this a kral breaker with fx 25 cal slug line and Jii Cooper complete new valve assembly including a valve stop to control valve duration,I have over fifteen custom built trifles,with fx barrels.4 with tj and i found walther polygon barrels to be superior to tj.Sell it get an fx barrel and liner and find someone really good to install it.And then the work begins to get just the right puff of air.

This is my first fx barreled gun a bam 50 known for its extremely well made match grade trigger set to 5 ounces.It has a .30 cal fx x liner. Shoots 44 grain jsb diobol pellets at 920 fps.At that point i sold my impact.And started building all the guns i liked the looks of and were set up in a way that could take the upgrades.

The gun is dark blue with very light purple metal flake you can only see in sunlight.
Half inch group at 100 yards.

Airforce Condor all the way for pushing this heavier .223 bullets. Some simple turning on the barrel blank and your good to go.

I’d install in in a Winchester 70-35. I’ve converted one to .257 and once the magazine was modded . I can send 70 gr. 257420 bullets at 900 fps. In .224 it would t even need any valve or other power mods. Easily capable of well over 100FPE or shooting a 55 grain bullet at 900 + fps and still use it with a magazine. The full story is on the GTA. It’s much easier to get a big bore to make power with a smaller caliber than trying to make big power with a small caliber rifle. Another options would be a Evanix AR6 , super long magazine,on a Sumatra in .22 . Both capable of big power and long magazines.
If your into single loading , the Texan in any cal wins in the power department.

Mtnghost...od - 5.62 x 30" long so it could be cut to length...the .224 slugs the small ones will fit a cricket..up to 36g in the mag 44g single load...that would be ideal but I don't know if a .25 cricket platform could be made to push 44g of .223 at least 900 fps.

Jimmy001. That buid looks great.. I really enjoy custom builts ..to bad that I don't know nobody to send guns to have them modified..that's why I started with condor it was something I could do myself...my .223 n .257 ..the .257 could push 85g 970 fps...the .223 I have not been able to test fully because there is no bullet available to purchase n huben slugs only go up to 36g n I need something between 55g to 60g..I only use tj to shoot cast bullets..but I used to have a short barrel. 25 -- 1-22 twist n I shoot pellets awesome ..

Oneshot6 ..marauders were good I used to have 2 long time ago..but now I'm really enjoy the bullpubs better or my really long guns like those 2 condor or my 2 Texans..for big lead shooting..but for every day shooting bullpubs all the way...would be great If AAA starts including in their lineup .. .223 -- n -- .257 slayer..

I meant the O.D. of the barrel itself. They sell them in 1/2" and 15mm ODs, if you have the latter - I would say Taipan Veteran

You'll want a 250bar fill gun most likely. Seems the smaller the caliber the higher the pressure needed is for the same power. While not a true bullpup the Kral Knight is 250bar 500cc bottle and 70-80fpe with slugs in that barrel should be no problem. It's really the only budget friendly bullpupish gun I know with the volume and pressure I'd want to make a slugger from.
