i have another 6 or 7 slugs to test next weekend hopefully. just doing this to offer up some information that may or may not be readily available.
it's notable that the pro slugs lose much more energy than the round nose Mr. Hollowpoint 170. Mr. H's seem to retain alot of energy at 50 yds.

copied and pasted text from another post i had. formatting seems different here. first column is velocity at muzzle, then 50 yds, then FPE, then ballistic coefficient, then FPE at 50 yds

Great numbers. Sad that the long barrel doesnt push the hp max 457 over 400fpe. Maybe with a heavy slug

Still have the shade but wanted the option to mount it on a tripod so I designed a tripod mount that also protected the rear LED.

If your interested in printing this I have uploaded the files to Printable's

back in the Yellow Forum days Joe Rhea was a big poster and he loved his FWB 300's he had them coming and going there was a time he thought fire was the way to do the stocks until he burnt one to a crisp
but out of pressure or curiosity he bought a 75 and it needed servicing and so he went after it and got it all finished but to put it back together and the rifle beat him
he shipped it out to another member to wrap up and then i believe he sold it soon after

he now beats the hell out of scopes and shoots a lot of .22lr and his fairly new to him Anschutz 54 can shoot an amazing rifle for so many years

if i have the story wrong please correct it has been many years

FYI
Watch the second video to the end regarding zelle.
In any case, regardless of what service you use whether selling or buying, save all documentation regarding any transactions to hopefully avoid a 30% income tax liability.
If you sell an air rifle or any item for less than you bought it (and can prove it) you’re off the hook but you have the burden of proof.
Govt hates cash sales and bartering.

Yes, this is why a good reputation/feedbacks on AGN so I can use Friends and Family is important, I do NOT want to deal with IRS and keep all receipts.

I am looking for an excellent condition stock (I only need a stock) for an FWB 124. I would prefer the Deluxe version, but will consider the standard.

I was just going to try the sub 12 for hunting this season to experience it. Most of my shots early season are 25 yd and under so I should be fine at that distance. My primary tune for squirrel in .22 is 23-24 fpe or hades at 810 fps. My second is a .25 shooting 26g Nielsen at 45 fpe. I think it’s a crappy restriction and should be closer to 15-20 fpe but hey I don’t get to help laws in far away lands.

EmptyTin_Tim · Sep 15, 2023

Very interesting. I purchased a AE Swede 18 shot mag and have used it as the primary for over 3,000 pellets in my Avenger with zero issues. I do not think it has the spoke center piece but I've not taken it apart.

Makes you wonder if the Avenge X mag is updated Avenger mag and they used the same parts? Idk haven't looked at Avenge X. But I am pretty sure Avenger mags are kinda knockoff Benjamin Marauder mags so who knows maybe the Benji mags changed and they copied those lol

For safety purposes I myself only use DOT only certified up to date fill sources, remember we are using very high air pressures that can be very dangerous to ourselves and others, please be safe

Good advice.

I get a bit nervous shopping where I cannot get local support. I am happy with my EDguns but purchased them from the folks in California. I haven’t had to have any service issues with them yet but when UPS damaged a part in shipping, Brian shipped a replacement part right away, no questions asked. Wyatt, their tech, was very patient walking me through a bunch of ‘how to’ questions so I am not planning on buying across the pond. YMMV. David

@TN_Yankee - Thank you! Awesome. I clearly will need more, got a couple kits and was going to build out a list for myself with caliper and guess on hardness, this rocks.
