Hello,
I am looking for info on this setup in pellet only. I am wanting to play with it for EFT and possible N50 and hunting. I just want to shoot pellets. What kind of energy can I get with a 600 or even 700 barrel? FX shows fpe but with slugs, I want what you guys are getting in the real world with pellets. Can I get 50fpe?

Thanks
Jon
 
With a 22 and 25 gr pellets you would be close to it if there are heavier pellets I'd go heavier than 25 gr I can't remember been awhile since I played with a 22. But I know the gun has the power to push them to 50ftlbs
Thanks, maybe with the longer barrel it would for sure. I know slugs could but I have no desire to shoot slugs. I have 22lr for that. I know Dave and Mark said we need about 45fpe for our EFT matches here to knock over the targets.

Thanks
Jon
 
Jon,
Here’s some place you can answer your question.
By simply putting in you pellets speed and weight. You’ll be able to get the best answer.


For example:
.22 JSB 25.4 gr pellet at 965fps builds around 52 fps
Yes, I looked at it but didn't have an idea of what real world velocity was with those. My 22s are all pistons.

Thanks
Jon
