We have been testing our new Epoch for a few days now, and I'm very impressed. I have newer seen a regulator respond so quickly. I tried a speed shoot yesterday, shooting a full 22 shot mag of 30 cal 50 gr. in 44 seconds while we filmed the regulated pressure gauge. It was set at 1,350psi and dropped to maybe 1,150 and back to 1,350 is a split second... other guns I've owned, have taken 3- 5 seconds making accurate speed shooting out of the question.
In 44 seconds, the Epoch and I made a 22 shot group about 1 1/4" high and 3" wide with 12 in one hole right where I was holding the crosshairs. The wind was quartering in from the right at 2 - 11mph and I just held in the same spot, so the 3" width was due to that. If there was no wind the 22 shot group would have been 1 1/4" in speed shooting mode
I'm in love..
We did have to add some weight with an attachment for fitting into an adjustable front rest. The video we made showed NO movement of the barrel when shooting at 1,350psi with the 35" long barrel 50gr 30cal at 980fps
