So just how do YOU screw a grub?
Some people prefer the grub screw them, ie. the Hamster method.

The Chille job finally arrived.
I think he’ll probably put a report on how it performs.
( no problems so far with the grub screws )

well sean mate i know u made a lovely job off it welldone and thanks thats now one i ow u .i,m just waiting your instructions now lol
might be looking and asking for one for my rapid soon mate had to sell the condor as the wife,s just had our second child so the price i was give for the condor was spent on the new baby .u all know what it,s like .cot and prams and stuff .i will be getting anew one asap ./
I’m starting to worry a little now as the silencer hasn’t arrived yet 😥 . I sent it “royal mail” but that only counts ( if it counts for anything ) on this side of the water.
If need be al make him another as he’s gone to the trouble of getting a sound meter to give a before and after.
Av been busy still catching up a bit with the new miller 😀
Finally got rabbits’s done ( after he sold the gun 😳 )
An yesterday i finished a 9mm in the same designe as that .50cal


This is rabbits/the care taker’s.
‘Twas luverly and quiet 🙂

And this is the 9mm on the barrel after blasting. And its threaded. Have to go up to 16×1.5mm for this. Machine cut threads through the bore with a 10mm pellet passage.
New mill is tops 😀
Used to take all day to make the holes with the old mill and it was propper hard work winding the knee up n down each cut. But now i just pull a lever and i stand back and watch.
Any way, back to the garage.
ta, ta.
well i have had my fair share of grub screw on ldc’s fly to hell….on my 457 rig…the 10-32 screw started to bend, and the shrouds hole in 3mm alu had started to get oval….screw bend so much it ruined the threads, and i had to cut it out and retap the hole.
a buddy of mine stuffed a pressure guage on his converted FX .308 cal pushing about 170 fpe, he measured 1800 psi in the muffler, the size of a regular .22lr/airgun muffler 😀
i would have gone with threaded barrel, but i see the dilemma shipping across borders, and the extra time it would take + possible loss in customs etc…..
You braniacs are killing me. Hell, i just wanna here how the VORTEX like silencer did.
oops! 😳
Ok. Here’s the rifle I’ll use for numbers–>
http://www.pyramydair.com/p/career-dragon-slayer-50-caliber-air-rifle.shtml
Reservoir (V1)=300cc
Initial pressure (P1)=3000psi
V2=volume of air used after 10 shots
+ 66.3.cc/shot (volume of .50cal barrel)
P2=2200psi
Boyle’s ideal gas law–>
P1V1=P2V2
108.5 C.I. (1778cc) per shot. 
note: See revised numbers on my previous post.
—–Rough example—–
Condor bottle (V1)=490cc
Initial pressure (P1)=3000psi
V2=volume of air used after 20 shots
+ 0.62cc/shot (volume of .22cal barrel)
P2=2000psi
Boyle’s ideal gas law–>
P1V1=P2V2
My guess is 37.37cc per shot average.
he’s talking about a 50 cal dragonslayer here, not a condor. but great calculations. Wanna rerun them? I would but don’t know resivoir size, start/end pressure, etc for that gun; never been around one.
—–Rough example—–
Condor bottle (V1)=490cc
Initial pressure (P1)=3000psi
V2=volume of air used after 20 shots
+ 14.95cc/shot (volume of .22cal barrel)
P2=2000psi
Boyle’s ideal gas law–>
P1V1=P2V2
My guess is 107 cubic inches (1754cc)per shot average.
You seen the snakes and spiders out there??!! Plus you would sweat to death in the first day Blod!!
