Swamp Donkey Tuned | Randy Ebersole Showcases Skout Epoch for Airgun Oregon’s Wayne Burns
Welcome to Swamp Donkey Tuned.
In this video, Randy Ebersole, aka Swamp Donkey, demonstrates the tuned performance of the Skout Epoch Compact, equipped with an Athlon Optics Ares ETR UHD 15-60x56 scope and firing AEA Center Punch 25.3 grain .22 caliber pellets.
This specific rifle was tuned by Randy and is the very one Wayne Burns, owner of Airgun Oregon, will be using at his next competition.

Why This Setup Works So Well
One of the standout features of the Skout Epoch Compact is its balanced valve system, which allows precise tuning at lower regulator pressures, down to 1100–1200 PSI. This creates a smoother, more controlled shot cycle, helping the shooter maintain accuracy. With Randy’s fine-tuned adjustments, this rifle sends 25.3 grain .22 pellets downrange at 900 feet per second, optimized for ballistic efficiency and field performance.

Wow...82 bar on the LPR?!?!
well, this flips the stories on the LPR settings
what kind of SD are you getting at the muzzle and target?

LPR at 82 bar is a mis-type as 82 bar is nearly 1200 psi ... No way !!
8.2 bar is 118 psi and likely where at operating near 1100/1200 psi ... yup @ 10%
I'll talk with Randy next month and share some tune & set up tricks worthy of web video sharing
