my raw is a bm 500 with lrt stock forest green single shot with thimble .177 both lw and poly barrels.
​shoots hn ftt 8.6 4.52. 1000 fps super accurate up to 125 yards with these pellets in the poly barrel.

Thanks...Now I just need to increase my airgun fund...My HM1000X LRT walnut .25 cal with a standard LW barrel is easily a MOA accurate gun. It's great for the bench or for hunting. It is heavy and long, but most importantly accurate with a punch. The weight and length doesn't bother me, but it may be an issue for some. I'm 6' and 220#, but I'm also 68 years old. I love my RAW and would buy it again.Â

I'm 180 and 511. my gun is almost 14 pounds with scope. I havethe steel buddle bottle on my gun for xtra weight.
​my gun is 177 and zero recoil jump. so smooth to fire.
I'm left handed but I ordered my rifle with a right cocking lever.
its easer to load this way than if I got a left handed lever.

Interesting... I'm in my right mind too. Most left handed people are more ambidextrous then most right handed people. We've grown up in a right handed world

Here is my.25 LRT. I have a .22 HMX on order right now also that I'm supplying the wood for the stock.

The thing for me is the super easy hand loading of the pellet. I have a 30cal BM500x and the pellets fit tightly into the breach. Mark B showed me his BM500 in 17cal and I was like "so when can I get a thimble!!!!!" lol.
Not too worried about indexing as I know Martin and Mark B, tune these rifles withing a nats you know what.Â

Thanks! Air rifles tend to be rather thick, so it is a bit harder to find the correct size. Martin/RAW sends a template and size requirements if a buyer supplied stock is ordered. https://www.nwtimber.com/

That maple is going to make a nice stock can't wait to see it done, I almost went with a LRT stock on my HMx .357 but went with a special order Blue Laminate and cut into a Thumbhole stock and if this turns out I'll be getting a .25 next year with a LRT stock but not sure on color.

I have not seen the wood in person. I had it directly shipped to RAW. I requested no stipple, and no finish be applied. I wanted to use my own product. This one is going to be cut as a thumb-hole stock. I figured with already having a LRT already that I could swap stocks between the .22 and the .25 due to the fact that they are both HMX receivers.

i shoot polymags out of my HM1000X .25 @890-900fps 1" groups at 50 meters. thats a high quality pellet, also shoot them out of my edgun (also .25 cal) and they are also accurate. I shoot them out of my taipan veteran short .22 @850 fps and at 35 meters and the group was 1/2".
