Just some info on first few days with Vulcan 3 in .306
I picked up (two) Vulcan 3's (one for my better half) and these guns shoot great, I am impressed. Tony from https://talontunes.com/ hooked us up and was a great help with info. He tuned them up so when we opened the boxes they were pretty much set, so far no tuning on my part but I will be experimenting a bit with different slugs.
The first 2 pics were at 50 yards with AVS 62.5 gr dish hollow point slugs... avg velocity @ 940 fps...the 3rd pic was 100yds smashing pumpkins with the same AVS slugs.
My better half who has never shot rifles before must be a natural because the 4th and 5th pic is of her and her 50 yard group...first time shooting so she was allowed that one flyer!!!
The last 2 pics were with 5 round group 62 gr hollow point dish made by Varmint Knocker...were supposed to be knurled up to .306 but unless my micrometer is off I measured 5 slugs with an average of .3045 but they still did pretty good. One flyer on that group and was 100% me I totally twitched and dipped the barrel as soon as I pulled the trigger so definitely not the slugs.
I did get a bit better averages on fps with the AVS but as far as accuracy at 100 yards they were close, I'll do more of a comparison soon, waiting on more AVS slugs to come
So to sum up the first few days with the Vulcan 3 ....Love it....only thing I'd point out is tuning requires disassembling the air rifle so that would be the only drawback but balanced well, points well and is obviously accurate although options for .306 is limited as far as I can see. AVS seems to be the only one making .3063 that I can find. If someone has found another source please share...would love to test out other options.
Thanks
