So I decided to buy a Uragan .30 based on a few factors such as quality, big air cylinder, forward cocking lever, trigger and CZ barrel all in a small package. So I order it and patiently wait. Well today she arrived so I picked it up at the ups center so I don't have to wait for delivery. Opening the box reveals a very nicely made bullbup. I put a scope on it and try to unscrew the shroud to expose the barrel to make it easier to feed my crown saver through the shroud. Problem is the shroud won't budge...yes I know.its suppose to unscrew but this baby is on there and without me adding some kind of heat to it I'm afraid it's not budging. I always clean the barrels on a new rifle to get any factory residue etc out of it before shooting.
Well I move onto the next thing which is to get it on paper. I quickly get it sighted in at 30 yards and then move it to 40 and shoot a 5 shot group. Very nice single whole for 5 shots I can easily cover with a dime. Very satisfied with it's accuracy.
I then bring it in the house and fill to 300 bar it's reccomended fill pressure and decide to Chrono it to make sure it's shooting as expected. The shot string started out at 896fps then steadily dropped nearly every shot. After 4 magazines (36) shots it was down to 784fps...that's over a 100fps drop of velocity. I then grab another gun and shoot it over the Chrono and it's fine...telling me the regulator is not working. I then filled it back to 300bar and the first shot was 895fps then fell drastically every shot. After 1 mag(9) shots it fell over 60fps. Obviously the regulator isn't working and this is dumping air quickly.
To be fair until this problem is resolved I will not name the dealer...I immediately contacted him and told him of the problem. The rifle was shipped back after only having it 4 hours. I just don't think a new out of the box should have a major problem like this....yes it was function checked and chronoed before it was sent to me. I understand sometimes these things happen but this is a first for me after being in the hobby over 25years. Hopefully my new rifle...yes I wanted another Uragan ..hooefully the replacement will be as expected. Here is a few pics before I shipped it back.
