Do we have any Gauntlet 2 shooters in the house?
 
I'm curious about the gauntlet 30.. is it shooting flat as 22? what is your opinion on long distance.. is the 30 caliber better than 22? also do you know if the regulator on the Gen 2 is adjustable.. so could you like turn the regulator on the Gen 2 up to the same pressure as the 30 caliber and use heavier slugs in a 22 and would it be similar to 30 or not? I'm just not familiar with the ballistic of the different calibers..
I thought your group looks good but well it's at the side of the bullseye and close together.. would be great to see more shots..
thank you

I have the gauntlet 1 in 17 and 22 caliber my first was the gauntlet 1 25 caliber my brother wanted because it shot so well, sold it to him and got the G2 25 and 30 caliber the 25 shoots great really all of them shoot great, I’m tricking out my 30 putting.7L carbon fiber bottle removing the OEM bottle andView attachment 392640
wow that's totally unrecognizable until I zoomed in and read umarex gauntlet.. that's such a good looking stock.. do the bottle clamps come with it?
so what do you think shooting long range, at least 100 yards.. do you think that the 30 caliber is more accurate? shoots id assume the same arc given the regulator settings are different but I have only 177 and 22 in the past and now everything is 22 but I'm pretty interested in the 30 caliber because I was wanting a larger caliber than 22 and it seems like the gauntlet 30 is the only one that is affordable and has a fair amount of shots per fill.. I have thought about the Benjamin bulldog but it's ugly and well it's a lot more money because then I would want to add the pitbull full length air tube and regulator..
oh speaking of regulator, do you know if say the regulator in the Gen 2 is adjustable, so what I keep wondering if you set the regulator for the same pressure as the 30 caliber on a 22 and then shot slugs in the 22 that were the same weight as the 30 caliber pellets.. would it be better or worse as far as ballistic and trajectory?
just trying to learn more about it so I make a good decision.
