Very cool! Any plans for a lightweight hunting/pesting or backpacker airgun? Paintballs markers are so light…

Nope, that is the twist rate of our slug barrel. We are still finalizing the exact twist rates for the .22 and .30. One of us had a .22, one had a .25 and the other two shot .30

Thanks. Yes, two of you did well. The only reason I asked is to shoot the .25 Altaros 49.5 grain. With twist rate of 1:23 your GSF would be 1.1, which is very low (marginally stable)…. I shoot them from a 1:18 barrel and the GSF is 1.8 which is about perfect. But if they shoot well at that slow a twist than that’s great.

Great. Standing by. I’d also like to try the new fast flow HP reg to see if the drifting reg pressure with bottle pressure has been remedied.

Well i do hope the Skout EVO shoot better than that poor quality vertical video.
I am very happy i got a haircut today and so are back to my usual .120 length, CUZ i was reaching for it.

What's the max slug length/magazine depth? Says larger regulator what FPE are you guys thinking with .35?

What's the energy of the high flow valve vs the Epoch? Curious, with such few guns how many different barrels of each twist do you test before making production choices?

Luke, can the rifle without a tank take an FX screw on bottle that has their shut off valve? Thanks and congrats on the new rifle. Can't wait to hear more about it. -DT

And when we finally get all the necessary information about this model, what is the weight, what is the maximum power we can expect and what is the efficiency for all calibers with both barrels, i.e. longer and shorter. Please provide all information as this will probably be my new long awaited toy. How long will spare parts be available, etc

There is a one way valve on the Epoch, and a newly redesigned one way valve on the EVO we have completely went away from the 3 liner option. We will have the nice Plano hard case as an option now, standard will be coming with a less expensive option that will still be protective for shipping but not as large and heavy as the standard case.

1999 gun in cheaper packaging option (may still be a smaller plastic case) with no bottle
2350 gun with bottle and hard Plano case.
These will all be options on our website, when you go to purchase an Epoch or EVO you will be able to select the options in a drop down menu and configure it to the way of your choosing!

It can’t be used with their shutoff valve, but if you remove the shutoff valve that bottle can be used. The threads on our bottle on-off are the standard M18-1.5. Also on a side note, we have moved to BSPP threads on the EVO to allow for more gauge options!
