Huben New Huben K1 acquisition

[Emjay4248]

Finally Got my new 2024 K1 and have only shot about 100 rounds so far. Kelly from Krazykool has been helping me with reg setting and fps.
He also set me up with the appropriate slugs. It’s not broken in yet but so far at 50yrds it pretty accurate. I’m going to try a few different moderators and no moderator and try and tighten it up but so far it’s doing 5 shots @ 50 yards jsb mkll 25/34 results are from 1” - 1 1/4” with 1 second between shots. It’s not a tack driver but I am sure after proper break in a tuning tweaks I can get it to approximately 1” @ 100 yards. I don’t have expectations of it being as accurate as my fx maverick in sniper setup but I do consider the fact that it is a semi. So far it’s an awesome platform. By the way I also own the GK1 in 25cal and it does 1-1 1/4” @ 50 yards with jsb mkll, tripod and bug buster scope no problem. Absolutely amazing guns.
Will follow up with progress reports and then later slug results.

Manual states need at least 500 rounds through it for reg to settle in
I just got one from him in 22 and have about 250 rounds through it and at 50 I get about 3/4 inch for 19 rounds

Working my way to 500. Will be at the range tomorrow and probably go through one or two tins. Only wish it had a bigger tank.

How many shots per fill are you you getting?

 

[Emjay4248]

What fill pressure? That's pretty good shot count. What speed? My reg creeps still a little high when I fill it but my first shot always is spot on so I'm not seeing an issue with it and after that first shot it goes back down to 19 Mpa where I have it set. Also my reg will get lower when I get around 21 MPA on my tube and accuracy is still good. So hopefully with some more shooting it will settle in and not fluctuate as bad. The biggest thing I've learned with mine everyone wants a pellet go as fast as it can accurately but mine loved average speed and power the best with the 18 FX. It is probably right now my number one to grab for shooting. And the biggie for me for hunting can sling it really easy I already put the sling swivel studs in the stock and it's ready. I'm interested in getting the Pistol in 177 and making it a carbine For my son just shooting pellets. He tuned mine for slugs too and I've shot maybe 10 slugs and their accurate but I got this for pellet shooting

17.5 mpa. 940-945 fps. Fill is 4800psi. On the k1
I use Aea 34grain pellets and Ava 44/254/fb on both my k1 and gk1.

Try the new Aea pellets.

 

[Emjay4248]

Just came back from the range. It’s shooting under an 1” @ 50 and I have less than 200 pellets through it so far. Not bad at all. I have high hopes.

 

[Emjay4248]

My gk1 degassed after my 3rd shot today. I’ll have to look into it tomorrow. Same string and fill pressure as 2 days ago and i shot 4 mags no problems. We shall see.

I did try the AEA pellets they did OK but not as good as those FX
