Hello AirgunNation Peoples,
These Bull-Pups have got me spoiled! I was an early adopter of both the FX Dreamline/DreamPup almost two years ago, and the FX Wildcat MKIII Sniper eight months ago. Its also been a little while since I have made any tuning changes or added any additional accessories.
Besides these B-Pups being different models and of different calibers .22(DP) and .25(WC MKIII) they have very similar setups on both. Including, superior STX liners, plenum extensions, Huma-air gauges, barrel bands, custom tunes, H. Sidewinder FFP scopes, bipods and pic-rails, slings, etc.
Today, I decided to break out my two Bull-Pup PCP’s, their choice heavy JSB hunting pellets, their favorite Nielsen HP slugs, and my digital caliper. The PCP battle ground was the backyard range shooting a white painted gong at 100 yards flinging 5 shots for each projectile. Just a quick group size contest I conducted between my two FX Bull-Pup babies.
Here are the PCP’s.
MKIII (front) - DreamPup (back)
Wildcat MKII Sniper .25
DreamPup .22
100 yard Gong aka “The Backyard Range”.
Up first, the DreamPup .22 shooting JSB 25.39g Jumbo Monster Redesigned, 5 shots at a 100yrds.
Then I shot my DreamPup’s 5 shot 100yard group with the Nielsen 23g HP slugs.
Now, it’s time for the Wildcat MKIII “Snipe-Doggy-Dogg” .25 at 100yards for 5 with the JSB 33.95g King Heavy.
On aim.
After that I launched some Nielsen 33.5g HP Slugs out of the MKIII, again @ 100yrds for a 5 shot total.
All groups completed, I walked out with my digital calipers to get some photos of the gong targets and measurements (widest center-to-center) of the four groups.
Lastly, here are the individual center-to-center 5 shot group from 100 yards measurements. The paint splatters can be different to discern, but my measurements were from the center’s of the projectile’s lead impressions on the steel gong.
DreamPup .22 JSB 25.39g Redesigned = 1.25 inches
DreamPup .22 Nielsen 23g HP Slugs = 1.48 inches
Wildcat MKIII Sniper .25 JSB 33.95g King Heavy = 1.63 inches
Wildcat MKIII .25 Nielsen 33.5g HP Slugs = 1.60 inches
Like mentioned, at the start of this post. These Bull-Pups have got me spoiled, all under 2 inches from 100 yards! Fair is fair though... The DreamPup .22 just edged out the win today in group size over the Wildcat MKIII .25 Sniper. Today.. Wonder if the results would be the same in higher winds? Thanks for viewing!
