Agreed thats why i mentioned it..I heard minimum should be 140,if thats the case not sure why they would let it leave manufacturing at 130.I just now watched jim chapman had tuned his rattler at a reg of 160 to shoot the NSA 142gr.basically punched a 3/4 inch hole at 65yds with that set up.Best...

I’m thinking that’s a possibility with regard to the barrel comment,maybe i’ll buy another barrel and see how it compares.I want to have joel from palm beach airguns come over and shoot it..He shoots lights out with his FX,i went iguana hunting with him.The other thing is my reg came new set at...

To finish up my previous post about my rattler 357 experience…So after the misfire issues i just put it away until i had time to diagnose the problem,my new business was taking all my time and focus.Last friday i brought it down to Joel at palm beach airguns where i purchased it and he basically...

Great thread!This will help a lot of people over time i believe.So i have had just about the same exact experience as this guy describes with my Rattler .357.First day out (about 6 months ago) I set up with JSB 81gr pellets as was suggested.First 5 shots to zero at 25 went perfect,second 5 shots...

Yeah i thought the same when i saw those titles..Not sure why you would o that.I can’t imagine it gets them any more views if that is the reasoning.Its a shame

Agree

Ideal for both those applications,i agree👍🏼

Not many its just an extra 120cc.My thought on that was there was no advantage to the 700cc on the .357 because you have to break and reload anyway so just top off at the same time and then you are ready for another full mag.I guess if you were using lower power with light pellets then it might...

Yeah i think they had the 700cc’s already for the production of the .45 and decided to offer it as an upgrade for the .357 in the meantime.you’ll notice they actually had the 700’s standard on the .357 for the second to last round of production then went back to the 580cc on the current run and...

Has the 700cc bottle.check out the beginning of the video posted.

Yeah so you dont really need all the extra fpe its just nice to have on tap i guess.

Out of curiosity..What is the minimum FPE everyone is comfortable with when going after say white tail or big boar (175lbs+)?I feel like 300-350 will get the job done with good shot placement.Is there really a need for 600-800fpe or is it just more humane and assuring?Heck Keith Warren was...

Yeah i have the rattler in .357 already and am sticking with that along with my bulldog .357 magnum and dragon claw2 mainly for air bolts.If i was buying my first rattler i would probably go with the .45 but not enough of a change to make the switch from the .357

They show it hunting hogs on a youtube video..He said its a 12rd mag.He said will come in a carbine version that he was using that puts out 350 ft lbs with a 230gr slug..He also said there will be a longer version that puts out a little over 400ft lbs of energy, im assuming with that same high...
