N/A 55-60fpe compact .22

[TitanRebel]

55-60fpe is a lofty goal for a .22 - I'm not sure physics makes it possible for sub-34 inch .22 caliber to get that FPE... "comfortably". Is it possible, sure, but it's gonna be working hard. Maybe prioritize either caliber (and be happy with 35-50fpe) or FPE (and be willing to step up to .25 or .30 caliber).

RTI Prophet might be similar to what you're after, they'll get a .22/25.4 over 1000fps pretty easily.

2nd this.

I have a P1 .22 20” CZ barreled Compact that with a mild 127bar reg setting and 22gr JTS pushed at 895fps for 39FPE Just bumping reg pressure 5bar would easily jump the FPE into the low to mid 40s with the same pellet.

So, yeah the P1. 50+ FPE with 25.4gr..easy peazy.

OAL is 30.875” with moderator

True, and I misread the title thinking the request was for a 25Cal lol.

I will be customizing a Zelos .22 to shoot NSA 27.5GR slugs this weekend.

I will be shortening the barrel to 500mm giving the overall length 30 inches.

These are very promising guns.

55-60 fpe in .22 caliber is asking a LOT !!!
Not many long barreled AG's can do that let alone a shorter barrel compact ... IMHO

That what I get in a conservatively tuned K1 with AVS 36gn .293. Bought from Kelly. Fabulous experience

My AirForce Talon SS (sans moderator) is 32 inches. Modified, a bit, 19 inch barrel, 1.1L bottle, Huben Power Cricket drop block regulator, Trajectron 90g hammer and heavy spring.

63J with Apolo Monster 25.4gr. Power wheel at 4, regulator at 2500psi. I'm guessing I could easily get 70+ J just by cranking the power wheel or upping the regulator pressure.

Where it's at is the Weight your able to shoot in K1's and a select few other Very high output PCP's. Most .22's will struggle to shoot a 25.4 gr in .22 with enough speed to make it worth while.
That output in .22 can be done & Is, it's just not that common among the .22 pcp's most of the masses are using.

My .22 K1 easily gets 55 or so FPE and my FX Dynamic Compact in .22 as well and more

 

[SpindleB]

So, yeah, cranking the power wheel on the Talon to 10 got 70J.

Agreed, I had my k1 .22 shoot 38.5gr at 970fps, only got 1 mag and a few shots but it still did it

Now I know what fine the AEA .22 slugs are meant for

 

[Sky King]

I get 55 fpe and 814 fps with AVS .2193 36gn slugs and lots more room for more power but II don't need more that I have here with this ammo.

Those weren't AEA slugs, but Varmint Knocker .223 slugs

.22 Cal at 80j with a 7lbs rifle firing pellets (LW choked barrel) Barra "The Clyde" 25.3g at 3000psi and Power Wheel at 10. Not consistent at that setting.

Talon cost me $100 (was not working)
Spring & hammer: $35
19 inch barrel: $170
Huben Power Cricket Z-Valve: $129
Acecare 1.1L short: $137

80J .22 rifle for under $600

My Caiman X is easily short enough and easily meets the weight spec but I don't know about power. I have the reg at about 120 bar and it shoots 21 grain H&N slugs about 915 fps for less than 40 fpe. That's plenty for me. It shoots heavier H&N slugs pretty accurately too but I would have to increase the regulator significantly to get 55 fpe and it might not get there. I have noticed it is less planted at the bench at high 30s than it was at low 30s. Happens with higher powered light air rifles.

My 600mm Maverick with a 5" mod is 36.5" long and puts out 46.74 fpe at just under 110 bar on the 2nd reg . So a shorter mod would get you close to 34" and wouldn't have a problem with your power requirements either . Mine weighs 6lbs 11oz with a 300cc cf bottle. Its 31.5" long without a mod . It didn't come with a good tune from the factory but with your power requirements it would need to be tuned anyways. My only modification was a heavier hammer weight and is needed for getting 25.3 gr pellets up to speed .
