My new 88cf tank to tether to my HMx .357 next spring and summer, I’ll be able to do some shooting now that I have a 74 and a 88 cf tank.

RAW REPORT

- Start date
Here is a new lever I’m going to try on my HMx .30, recived it from a member here(Lewis). With my nerve damage in my hands it should make it easier to cock my rifle, still need to get out but it’s cold and raining today.

Looks good. Sort of FX style. A lot easier to grab a hold of. I was thinking of making something like that in the future for my Tipan Veteran and now my TM 1000 just to see if I like it. I have 3 metal lathes 1 mill and 0 time to use them. I am caring for my extreme Dimentia mother in law during the week and work weekends

It makes a big difference for sure just sitting here test cocking the rifle, can’t wait to get out and do some real time shooting with it on, there is still room to move it farther back on the lever but I’m starting with it close to the end and will move back as I test it out to see where it works best.

Jim,
I like that, a lot! Are those available for sale somewhere, and do they have a black one?

So the Big Blue arrived today a few days early and it shoots as good as it looks! At 50 yds this .20 is stacking pellets on top of each other with no flyers whatsoever. Took a few photos and ran it over the chrono,,,63 shots per fill at 801fps avg. Have plenty of hammer spring adjustment to crank it up if i wanted to but this meets the 20ft lb limit for FT. Its a little heavy with the big belly FT stock with cheek riser but manageable. Love the 40" OAL of this rifle. Very cool thing is it is a HM action without the safety which i like for target shooting.
this is 10 shots at 50 yds

Kdog,
I can’t tell you how jealous of you I am! That gun looks and shoots sweet! I love .20 caliber too-and the short OAL-what a dream setup! I love the deep belly stock-the only thing I might consider adding would be some tasteful stipling to the sides for highlights (think of older Daystate stocks...).
That gun is a home run! Congrats man!!!

Sean believe it or not there is stippling from the trigger guard forward for 11" to where the rail ends. The previous owner did a awesome job ordering this.

I just noticed that the stippling runs all the way up to the top of the pellet tin now that you say that, Nice.

Has anyone been shooting NSA slugs thru their 25 cal polyhex barreled Raw?
should you ? inquiring minds want to know.

All I know is Martin told me to shoot pellets thru my .357 and .30 HMx’s because that’s what they are designed to shoot, maybe one of the guys here with a .25 have tried pellets, would be interesting to know.

They create such beautiful works of art and yours is no exception. It is stunning. What brand of pellets?

@kdog, Keith, gorgeous gun, BEAUTIFUL! Coincidentally, I recently a few weeks ago bought a used .20 cal. barrel and shroud assembly for my TM1000. I adjusted it to about 860 fps, since the previous owner said that was the most accurate speed (HST all the way in went to about 870 fps). Yes, I know its greater than 20 fpe shooting the 13.73 JSB Exacts. Still not sure which one is more accurate, the .177 at 900 fps with the 10.3 JSB Exact or the .20. I'm going to shoot the .20 at the 50 yard BR event at EBR. Will probably get killed with all the guys shooting the 50 FPE 25 grain .22 new Monsters in their RAWs and Red Wolfs (Wolves?). But it'll be fun to probably be the only guy there shooting .20 cal. 
If by some chance its not windy I'll be competitive, but what are the chances of that in AZ???
