Had some time to go to that range, so i brought out my RAW and Epoch in .22 to test out AEA pellets at 50 yards
The epoch was set to shoot @ 885 fps and the RAW was set @ 930 fps using AEA 25.3g
Pellets are straight from the tin, no sorting.
I am not a professional, just an enthusiast with delussions of grandeur
On the Epoch, i have a 35" barrel. The RAW has a 24" cut-rifle barrel from Martin Rutterford( a custom order)
The Epoch was shot using a bipod and rear adjustable rest. The RAW used shooting bags.
Martin did the tune for the RAW, and i am fiddling with the Epoch(hits and misses-lots of misses- on the tune, and still working on it) A digital pressure gauge for the HP is highly recommended to dial in your tune.
It was close, but the Epoch won out this round. Slight advantage with the bench stability going to the Epoch
The triggers on these rifles are just ridiculously light...such a wonderful feeling when it starts to come together. I still have more work to do, but this was fun
