Crosman 1100

Just received a beautiful resealed Crosman 1100 from Mike Baker. Can't wait to shoot it, but it will have to wait until next weekend. Thanks Mike for a beautiful gun for a great price.

I was able to shoot the 1100 today. Approximately 15 times. Ten shot shells and 5 375 balls. However the temperature was 47° so I know it was not shooting at its peak performance. Really looking forward to warm weather to see how it does.

After shooting I reloaded a few rounds to test out my DIY loading tool. Works as intended

In the picture are factory loads, the hand loads and the patched 375 lead ball loads.

Watched some videos; if your 15 yards and under(the closer, the better)it's God enough. But then it's about 10 shots per 2 co2 average
Good enough for actual game shooting or only clays?

FWIW I get approx 40 full powered shots out of my Crosman 2240 with one CO2. About 5 fpe. 5 x 40 is 200 FPE total from the one CO2. Two 12g cartridges are 400 fpe stored energy.

I know it's a wild ass comparision but 400 FPE/10 shots = 40 fpe for all the pellets as an aggregate load. I don't know about using it on game but for short range clays seems good.

That's awesome! I'd totally try it on small game birds. Probably perfect for quail
