Hola. ¿Alguien puede ayudarme? ¿Cuál es la energía de retroceso del Texan LSS .50? Quiero montar una mira Luna Optics LN-G3-RS50-LRF, pero no sé si aguanta el retroceso.

Hello. Can someone help me? What's the recoil energy of the Texan LSS .50? I want to mount a Luna Optics LN-G3-RS50-LRF sight, but I don't know if it can handle recoil.

Recoil varies with bullet weight, pressure, rifle weight, and your tune. There are two many variables to answer your question intelligently.

Thanks. I know that, but every weapon has an approximate recoil force range, and I can't find any information on the Texan.

I have shot over 300 lbs of cast .510 450 grain and 650 grain spire point boat tails out of my Texan .510 TX2 valve 34inch barrel.. I use a coldshot mil adjustable base with a SIGHTMARK Wraith 4-32 digital scope..The Sightmark Wraith has been bullet proof reliable for 4-5 years use...Recoil is like 12 gauge shotgun with 650 grian spire points....I usually shoot NOE Mold 450 grain seems best hunting and overall use .28 BC not bad..Hits hard

I would think you would be fine mounting any newer thermal and nightvision optics from the better brands AGM, DNT ZuLUS, Pulsar, Sightmark, ect..

Thank you very much. I think I'll have to look for another sight option since the Luna Optics leaves me with doubts. I've seen videos where they use it with .308 Win, but I don't know if the Texan has more recoil, because the damn thing really hits hard.

Use the Airforce dovetail to pictanny adapters.. Dont use anything else they will slide under recoil..Most all night vision pictanny mounting...For the money a used 2x Sightmark Wraith will hold up to the Texan .510... I mounted a Monstrum tactical Challanger 5-30x56 on my .510 and it lasted 3 shots...A nikon tactical 3-9-40 took the recoil fine.. The sightmark wraith used should be around $250.00... A DNT Zulus with rangefinder and bullet drop compensation might be the thing...

@FranciscoSV No se de donde es en Chile, pero quizás Ud. puede charlar con Claudio Flores de Patagonia Airguns para consejo en este. Manda un correo elec a Airforce Airguns para consejo es una buena idea también.

If you want to compare the Air Force Texan 50 Cal to a .308 Center fire rifle, the Air Force Texan is mild, I’d describe the Texan recoil as a firm yet smooth push against the shoulder, where a .308 has a snappy kick, and significantly more recoil.

What I’m trying to say is if a scope can survive the recoil of an.308, there is a high likelihood that it would have no problem with the Texan .50.
