This works real well. I polished my barrels and liners with 5000gr and 7000gr diamond polish. They do not foul up shooting hybrids near as offensive as before. I told a friend about a kit for the diamond polish. He used it then told me his guns that where not accurate are very accurate now...

...probe- Offset RVA- Barrel is a shrouded .177 20" crosman (2250 I think), slightly modded TH stock, here it is primed, currently off being painted...... Just need to finish powder coating the main tube/ sand fit the recoil pad (was oversized from factory!) and she's pretty much done.....

Need a new batch of powder coating, this old batch blobbed all over the place.

Hmmm wonder if one can use DLC (like powder coating system ) on pellets ? but then there is the environmental issue too ? or is there ?

That’s looks very operator friendly, much easier to use then the existing. Yeah powder coat looks like something I would have done 😬

It melts off and floats to the top. I skim it off with the rest of the dross. I do my ingot making outdoors in a cast iron pot over a propane burner.

I powder coated it today.....:)

Powder coat using the shake-n-bake method.

For a 308 being sent out to make more power? I'm not impressed with those numbers; stock 308 Texan gets those numbers with 3600 psi.

@EddieG I really like this thread. You’ve discovered something we all should keep in mind shooting big bores. Also, you’re one of the first members I’ve read about who didn’t have a favorable outcome with powder coated projectiles. Which brand of powder coating did you use?

Long time powder coated myself, easy to clean the barrel, no increase in accuracy.

I feel that AGN needs a like+ button for posts such as this.

I think those are also called anti vandal paints, in that they should be easier to clean if a grafitti punk have been by. I have limited experience spraying these myself but i did find them not charging / sticking as well as traditional polyester powder. I also made my own mouse mat with this...

...to do the same thing . Cast some heavy slugs for .218...I'm thinking about a regular 22 condor 24inch tube..I have been casting and powder coating slugs in .510...First pcp .510 second will be 22 cal....I do things backwards.. Lol. Should be easier getting 22 cal pcp accurate than .510...

I haven't had any problems with shake and bake in my Texan 457

If you want a ridiculous coefficient of friction, use powdered HBN, hexon boron nitrite to coat your bore. Its amazing stuff. Can be mixed in rubbing alcohol as a buffer and swabbed through the bore.

I have 7 steel target hangers up for your consideration. I believe these are made from AR500 steel. They won't break / chip / dent if hit. Especially from an air gun. However, they'll work perfectly if you're shooting firearms too. The targets themselves are not included. They are only pictured...

Are you dropping them, powder coating them and shooting them, or do you size them before or after coating?

Im sure you could shoot out to 400 -500 yards with a coldshotbase ..Any subsonic round is pretty tough past 500..The 257 Bulldog is a sweet platform..Im have 2 .257 molds im going to start casting..I also have a .257 Green Mountain 14 twist barrel that finish out at 24 inchs 1 inch bull barrel...

Not my best but a side project. Always liked the Huben action but wanted a conventional style. This started as a gk1. It will end up shorter (someday, lol) when I decide to cut the air tube down. For now, this is how it sits. Unregulated. Still needs some parts powder coated…. Dave
