Ordered the JTS Airacuda in .25 supposed to be here Monday. Would like to hear from people who currently own them about what they think about them.
Can the hammer spring on them be messed with to flatten the shot curve like can be done on the Benjamin Akela?
Looking forward to getting it and getting in the woods squirrel hunting with it, have a Hawke Endurance 30 WA SF 4x16x50 ready to go on it.
Will post pics once I get it.
Well I received the Airacuda Standard .25 today, cleaned barrel aired it up and mounted my Hawke Endurance 4x16x50 scope on it.
I had the scope on my Akela and it was just too big for it but seems perfect on the Airacuda. Shot it at 10 yards and was on horizantally but was about 4 in high, adjusted it down some then went outside to 32 yds. 1st shot was about 10 inches high, adjusted it down and next shot was 2 in high next one hit dime size bull. Shot rest of mag and they pretty much tore bull up, this was with Kodiak Hunter pellets because I had maybe 40 pellets left in tin and wanted to use them up.
As soon as it cools down will take it out and try a few other pellets and do some chrony work. I adjust trigger down to 2lb 3oz from 2lb 14oz which is about perfect for hunting.
Only thing I dont care for about the gun is the very dark finish thats on the wood, way too dark.
Pics arent the greatest as its too hot to go out to just take pics.
