AEA Pellets and Speed versus JSB, etc.

Headshots
I don't think there's a magic number for accuracy. Plenty of guys using .177 and .22 down to 500 fps or less with excellent accuracy. I have a couple. 22s shooting at 650 fps with good accuracy. The 750-920 fps range with a standard weight around 14.3 gr , imo , puts you in a nice power range for squirrel size pests. Of course the heavier weight pellets excell in fpe at similar fps . I shoot the AEA 18gr at 890 fps in my Taipan and the 25.4s at 912 in the Maverick with all the accuracy I could ask for . I shoot the JSBs at the same settings. I could shoot pellets at 1000+ plus fps but I would just be waiting air for my pesting needs.

Sheridan  Am I now an honorary American?

The triggers on the original Sheridan models are the easiest to make real nice. But once learned, they all can be made very good. My only beef with the original Sheridan is the small youth stock and one single caliber choice. Although a good one. Benjamin actually made great improvements on the Walnut Stock. Full size, bigger cocking lever and a butt pad. Also Benjamin made a beautiful “Silver Streak” that had a very rich nickel plating. Crosman took it up a notch by offering these in all the calibers. Then did the Crosman thing, year by year kept cheapening it. Walnut stock to Beech to Synthetic. Now all are discontinued. I think there will a revival in interest for all these American made classics.

I have the heavier stock version, but my favorite to go out and shoot is the 1955 model which has the smallest pump arm handle. It is super handy.
I have come close to putting the belt sander to the new one. Lol

AEA  aea challenger

Sicumj
Just a comment on the Coyote. They are prone to leak. I purchased a BSA Buccaneer in 25 cal years ago when they were going for cheap. Mine has the threaded barrel with the removable muzzle break. The fill devise is an issue and now I have a leak out the barrel that must be the valve. Accuracy wise they are second to none. English barrels are superb. The triggers are easily tuned to somewhat less than 2 lbs. I gave $234. for mine shipped to my door. The barrels are worth that. If you can work on airguns they are a good buy if not I couldn't recommend one.

My buddies "spare parts" bottle build

SteveV said:
She now has a working safety, and with some lube in the right spots the single stage 2240 trigger is much better. Also changed out the barrel to an 18" unit, grouping better w/o fliers. Re installed the original valve spring, two #11 o rings between hammer & valve.

How about a little info on that o-ring mod sir?

Thx

N/A  Affordable .22 slug gun

From a 350b fill shooting 15.89gr FX at 815fps (start velocity) I would get about 60 shots form 350b to 130b, shooting 21.9gr AEA at 900fps 40fps from a 350b to 130b I would get about 1.5 mags, and shooting 18gr FX pellets at 900fps I would get about 2 mags and change fromna 350b fill to 130b. I remember shooting VK .223 28.5gr around 770fps which I think is about 28fpe and I would get about a mag and a few shots. Shooting slugs out of the platform will use more air due to the extra surface contact.

Sweeeet! What kind of figures are you getting from that set up?

It's got a balanced tune, I'll get those numbers published soon.

Is there anything in between the Zelos and the Impact m4?

R
Scotay42 said:
There is always just get a used impact mk2 from a reputable trader in the classys. Find them for around $1k. 50fpe is not maxed on a .25 and tons of shots in that power. Still easy to get parts and addons as well. Granted i like me some used prices and trading a bit, or alot. Lmao
