RAPID AIR WEAPONS is here in 2 weeks. oh the wait

[redcrow]

I'm glad to see that you're happy with that little gem Red but I miss your company in the "Q". If I had a shot at picking up a used cherry version of the gun I Have on order I might be tempted but being a lefty that ain't bloody likely. Oh well my TM should be ready around Thanksgiving and that's right around the corner, right?? Uj

Look at it this way. With me out of the queue, everyone else gets moved up by one.

For those of you that asked for pix;

redcrow did you chroney your gun yet. what fps are you doing with 10.3 or 13.4

 

[redcrow]

I haven't chrono'd the gun myself, but I do have the data Ken Hicks gathered while it was in his hands. The JSB Monsters 13.4 gr fly at 805 fps with an ES of 10 and a STdev of 3. Haven't tried either the 10.43's or the new design 13.4s.

redcrow thanks for that. wow nice your es is very low. how nice is that.. did you shoot her yet. is that a poly barrel or a standard lw type?

 

[redcrow]

Standard LW barrel. So far, I've only had one range session with the rifle. I spent some time dialing in the scope. It was a rare, near windless morning so I took my time to get tightly zeroed. Very early on, the rifle's inherent accuracy was pretty amazing. And by that I mean you could throw clicks into the scope and predict where it'd hit next pretty easily. So it didn't take long to get the scope and the gun in complete agreement at 35 yards. After that, it was as someone else here said,"It's like ringin' a bell'. The Rowan trigger is set a bit lighter than that of my S510 Xtra. It is also very crisp. Even though I don't have 'my own' chrono data, I think Ken's data is accurate because when I started to shoot some informal groups, whatever spread I did get, which wasn't much, was horizontal.

I just love a rifle that makes me think I'm a better shot than I am.

I have a aas510 as well.. the trigger Is pretty darn good on it.. my raw500 bm hase both poly and lw barrels.. the poly barrel is way better with js13.4s. im glad I ordered 2 barrels with mine.

what I will say is at long range my gun likes a lot of different pellets. ans is even more accurate at long range 5050with barracuda match and jsb 10.3s than the 13.4s

long range to me is 50 to 125 and even to 150.yards.

for a 177 this is pretty darn good
