Umarex New Notos arrived

[Dan B]

My new notos arrived. I started the fill with my air tank. Topped it off with air compressor. Let it sit for about 20 minutes. No leaks. Velocity on my first 3 shots with a 14.3 pellet was 779, 771, 772. Is this about what I should expect from a factory gun.

770s is normal. Why would you even want more power. With such a small tube 66cc. You get 1 mag at high power not worth it. My will get 4 mags b4 it falls off the reg.

 

[Dan B]

Thank you. I will take it to the range tomorrow for a work out.

Clean your barrel first. It has shipping crud in it.

 

[Dan B]

Lots of crud. You were right. Thank you.

Congratulations! Enjoy shooting your new Notos!

 

[Dan B]

Thank you. I will update you on my pellet and garmin xero c1 experience after my tomorrow shoot.

If you're using it for hunting you don't need more than one mag so for that purpose I would. If you're just plinking all day then no

I shot the new Notos today. Factory equipped and factory settings. I had mounted a 4-12 scope. I had no leaks and my 2 magazines operated properly. I was getting 21-22 shots before I topped off the air cylinder. I had on hand Benjamin Discovery 14.3, JSB Jumbo 15.89, Crosman 14.3, H&N Trophy 14.6 pellets. I shot at 25 yards from a bench rest. I used a Garmin xero c1 Pro chronograph. For 5 shot groups the 14.3 gr pellet avg was 775 fps, the 14.6 gr avg was 760 fps and the 15.8 gr avg was 750 fps. I think the muzzle energy is around 17-19 fpe. My group avg was 3/4 inch for 5 shots for each pellet brand. With plinking and sight-in, I now have about 60 shots down the barrel. Are my results what you would expect from a factory Notos with factory settings?

 

[Bloodjoker86]

Shot with 14.3g crosman

Bloodjoker86, My springer pellet rifles can be very sensitive to how you hold it when firing. Do you have any pcp techniques or just hold steady and squeeze the trigger. I will shoot a group with more pellets in it and try to duplicate your target, thank you for sharing.

 

[Bloodjoker86]

So I use a bipod that I mounted under mine and I also use what's called a death grip which I absolutely love for some of my bigger air guns but either one of those will work great

Like for this one this air gun is kind of heavy and my only best option was the way in my back and take the shot

For instance this one I shot from my van using the bipod on the roof to steady my shot

Yupper, you're right in the ballpark.

I first was using a mini tripod with a y-yoke shooting with my Notos, hole in hole from 10-20yds...then I tried 2 different bipods and it shot like a shotgun! I switched back to the tripod and voila, hole in hole again.....
