Barra Is the Barra 250Z as Good as They Say? Full Review/Tuning Guide here (Video)

The Barra 250Z is quite an awesome PCP air rifle as it turns out. If you have heard great things about this gun, everything you heard is true! Power to spare, adjustable reg and HST, perfect accuracy at 960 FPS! This gun is powerful, accurate, and adjustable. I got 50 shots per fill in .22 shooting about 46 foot pounds. Good stuff! Too bad it's a bolt action. Thanks for watching! -Nate

 
Damn! I wish that you would have tested a butt load of slugs, because I have, and I still am not getting dime coverable groups yet. Pellets will do well at 50y, but so what, this is supposed to be my 200y can plinker. If anybody finds a Sub-MOA slug in .22, at 100y, I would love to hear all about it!

Mar 28, 2025 EDIT: Success! After trying 10 different slugs at different speeds: the ZAN 23gr .217, reg set to 2450psi*, hammer spring adj for 925fps. Tackdriver.

*Note that I did up my thimble size and got an extra 10bar doing so. So, on a stock gun you might want to actually run the reg at 2600psi, but still set the hs for 925fps from the ZAN 23gr .217 slugs. This is a guess on my part at this point, obviously.

Nate didn't run a suppressor because he said in the comments that he didn't want to tune for one and wore earmuffs. I had problems with only one suppressor that messed with accuracy (a .30 Ronin, my best) but the one that was just awesome with this gun was the small 0 dB110. Much quieter than my STO Levitas and my Tanto, no effect on accuracy at all.
