Man, Steve, that's SMOKIN'! And the last 9 shots of that second sting having an ES of just 24 FPS is excellent; especially considering the power. Thanks Bud.

Thank YOU Ron -
Yeah, the B Staley mod works, even without an adjustable stroke hammer. Four #11 Danco o-rings between the valve & hammer face helps a lot with the velocity spread.
And I like the fact that those numbers were achieved with the power adjuster maxed out, and frankly, a higher fill pressure than I normally use. That's a hunting set up, no doubt.
I also want to see what she'll do with the pa backed way off and 2000 psi. Just thinking of a more typical plinking scenario?

My first build ever. Started off a Maximus rifle. Cut with a hacksaw and filed square and crowned by hand with a carbide engraving bit and MadMax was born lol
Is that the one you won with at the Cajun s this past spring?

That's it. My $250 bruiser lol. Well, plus the scope. I still don't understand why you can't use a scope turned down to 12x but the rules say it can't be capable of greater than 12x so I had to buy one lol

Having served on the committee that composed a set of proposed PFT rules for the BoG's consideration when AAFTA decided to (sorta) embrace PFT, I can shed some light on that question, KP. I being the most vocal proponent on the PFT rules committee for keeping some semblance of pistol in pistol field target, but more 'liberal' elements advocating no limits to barrel length or scope magnification, both the maximum barrel-length and maximum scope magnification rules we now have were compromises between virtually-warring elements on the committee.
Here is some idea of what you might have to use in "pistol" field target to be competitive at the highest levels if I hadn't fought SO tenaciously to keep some semblance of pistol in pistol field target.

My customized 2240: added steel breech, 14.5” barrel, homemade silencing barrel shroud, polished trigger, sear and hammer, lighter trigger spring, modified valve assembly, homemade combination stock mount and hammer spring adjuster, six position adjustable stock, scope and scope rings, and bipod.
Extremely quiet, lightweight and accurate!

Yeah, guess those flintlock muzzle loading pirate side-arms were the first
"pifles"
Here's how she looks now, with a Challenger power adjuster and some new grips -
I almost forgot, nice build! I'll bet she is quiet, with the shroud & baffles.

Very impressive velocity from a 1322 - please list your mods if you don't mind, us Crosman modders love to learn from like minded airgunners!

Just my Crosman target pistols... Very accurate... I'd love to find a set of the beautiful wood grips I see on some of your pistols...

Ken, Ebay is your friend. Search 'Crosman grips' and you'll probably find Vernon Austin has some nice wooden grips for your pistol for sale.

Top one is a Crosman 1701 silhouette having a regulator, light hammer and custom LDC within a Corcoran stock. was my primary PFT rig for a couple seasons and actually won the 2016 Oregon state hunter class PFT
