This angry looking beast showed up looking to marry my Viper 5-25 scope and get jiggly with some Altaros 40 grain slugs. Who am I to say no?
What a beauty!It’s going to be a slow roll. The first impressions are that it’s heavy but stupidly quiet shooting the Altaros Kings at 900fps for 72fpe. Maybe I’ll get a chance to sight it in tonight. Absolutely crazy quiet and plenty backyard friendly, if 72fpe is your backyard thing (not me). Did I say quiet? It’s absurdly quiet, , in case you missed that…
Thanks for your input and earlier thread, which was very useful. There certainly may be others that elevate the game too and I should point out that my comparison is really focused on changing up from a Panthera 600 22. In that comparison, the Panthera felt settled shooting 32 grain. Going to 40 turned it into an angry gun. So, there’s a clear gain with the Mora, running even more sweetly than the Panthera with even heavier slugs.It's nice to read some other impressions of the Mora. I've only had a chance for one outing with my .25 Mora Standard and it was a learning curve session on setting up the rifle and tuning it. I am looking forward to an actual manual as I don't want to touch too much without knowing what's going on.
I did tweak the trigger a little bit. Made the first stage a bit heavier and then lightened the 2nd a touch.
Other than that I am tuned @190bar for the Altaros 66gr .25 Kings @ 890-895 fps for just under 120fpe. At this power the rifle is definitely not backyard friendly, but the shot cycle is still pretty smooth. Need to get back out there and test this tune at 50 and 100 yards.
I'm not going to call this rifle a game changer, as there are several rifles putting out similar power with their balanced valves. I can think of the Panthera and the Epic Two. I know there's one or two others. That being said I am really liking the RTI Mora - it's a big heavy gun but very fun to shoot.
As @weevil mentioned - I got a shipment notice from Tony as well which I assume is the cheek riser.
Yes - definitely does. I was having trouble seeing through my scope at the range the first time around.It also really needs that cheek piece to get my sighting on point at 25X
