Other Pistols for "FIELD TARGET" .... share your Factory or Exotic pictures of them !

I have others but no pics. A 1720T and RAW Micro Hunter.

The angle of the original picture made the barrel shroud seem like it was a bit larger in diameter. Right at the legal limit, right where I run mine. I think I'm at 2.95". Looks like a fun rig and nicely adjustable.

I'm not sure if and when we may cross paths and shoot at the same pistol ft match but it would be fun to have some mano a mano fun with our rigs. I'd love to check one out and hopefully change my overall opinion from the past ones I've handled.

No brocock I've tried semi recently like the atomic has excited me whatsoever, crude trigger minimal shot count and meh accuracy. I see this has a nice bottle on it, probably 300cc+? Plenty of shots I bet!

As for the raw having nothing on it, really the only thing I could think of is an on the fly transfer port adjustment. Convenient for sure. The RAW is no slouch, equally accurate off a bench , and skilled shooter such as yourself could kick ass with either.

What is the smallest bottle we can acquire to fit to the TM1000?
 
I believe the smallest I've seen is 180-200cc, BSA or daystate had a super small bottle at some point. As far as new bottles I've seen around, probably 220cc carbon bottles.
yep... acquired one of those 220 bottles but the NECK was too big to accomodate RAW' valve / threads. :sneaky:
AGN mbr hooked me up with this 13
It is enroute to S.A.G.E. land as we speak and i'll convert after Textreme.

Interesting weight comparisons
Note the atomic is now 6 lb 11 oz as I removed the stock and installed an S-Tac 4-20x50 scope
Will be interesting to see how much I can lower the TM1000 weight by? The TM 1000 in .20 <12 fpe is a stellar shooter!!
The Brococks are great but tube guns with fill ports are annoying and have a limited shot count… my TM is over 200 shots.
the Marauders’ weight is perfect and it has a QD fill but they get tippy when scoped and also limited by tube / shot count to refill .
I’m having Derrick build me a Brocock Pathfinder pistoli as I type - see bottom line. @zx10wall

Don't shoot the messenger ...
But a mount such as shown with so much cantilever / overreach I would NOT trust for precision work. There will be springiness and/or movement with temp shifts etc ... Unless proven otherwise ( being stable and POI consistent ) that's my opinion and willing to state it as such.
I have been fiddling plenty with these pistol pets... I keep moving the scopes lower and more to the rear to help with balance and eyebox. To date the Daystate monorail hasn't created any known issues but i keep it out of the sun on the course. Currently working to reduce the size of the air bottle... don't need 200 plus shots before refill.

there are some 9ci bottles out there on ebay but the weight vs the 13ci carbon cant be any lighter. I love the 13ci you showed above, I have 2. One going on my RAW and one is on a crosman build.

I run a 200cc aluminum BSA R10 bottle with its oem manifold, or a 220cc CF bottle 18mm threaded on an oem Raw manifold.
Both directly screw into the Regulator w/o issue or leaking.

As to scope position .. pending how you hold/support will dictate position more than balance.
Personally shoot in a deadman / lap / seated position having grip resting on my right knee and bipod just outside my left. my head drops into lap requiring optic being quite a ways forward.
Those shooting out in front and supported with elbows on knees .. scope more rearward.

latest set up with the Atomic - just got the stock off and the Air Superiority Power Adjust installed... hoping to tune it today and see what FPE it maxes at and FPE it minimizes at.
By the way... shooting in deadman (at any age) is very cool.... it's like making human pretzels.. unfortunatley after getting wacked by a car 18 years back, my chances of finding my way into a deadman position will most likely mean i am DEAD. Of interest is after loosing 30 lbs of belly, i can finally get my elbows on my knees and thus am much more stable in sticks. ;)

I just got a pathfinder from Derrick tonight…I will be mounting a scope on it tomorrow and hope to get it sighted in. There is the “Crusty Critter” as I call it, pistol shoot on Tuesday I plan on shooting at. I shot Derrick’s pistol at Textreme last year and it is nice.

I have decided to also join the Tenacious BRK Pathfinder Pistoli club! Hope to be shooting it this DEC at TEXTREME
