22 mutant V/S 25 veteran, The big loan
I loaned both guns out to my brother in law, The clear winner is the 22 mutant?
I did inform him that when he ordered one he will get the upgraded Veteran 22.
I offered to loan out my Cricket 22 just to make sure, But he refused, Wanting a short light truck gun.
The Mutant does have the Hawke 6×16-50 scope and Harris bi pod knockoff,
While the 25 Veteran has the FFP Athlon Argos 6×24-50 scope, He did like this scope,(and I love it).
Also a Harris bi pod, And a Donny fat boy on both guns.
Also the Caldwell Dead shot field pod is going be on his want list,
got a couple of bubble levels on each gun I use and they look way cool.
Mutant 22 tuned at 819 FPS shooting 16gr JSB
Veteran 25 tuned at 887 FPS shooting 25gr JSB pellets
His range was out to a dirt pile at 50 yards,
ALL in all I think I did a good thing, There is a HUGE learning curve in this sport.
You just do not air the gun up, stick a pellet in and shoot it,
I been doing this about seven years and I am just touching the basic knowledge of the sport.
But I am a slow learner, :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Quit loanin’ your shit out, Mike. Ain’t you heard? Nice guys finish last. :sadn: 😐
I’m blasting ground squirrels at 75 yards with polymags @ 900FPS.
Don’t know terry, only cranked it up to see what the max power is – prefer it at 32fpe to take it easy on the guns internals.
TERRY
come on now you can not do that!
we need caliber, gun, Shorty, stranded,
We need a little more information.

What’s your shot count while it’s up at that power?
I’m blasting ground squirrels at 75 yards with polymags @ 900FPS.
nope, just screwed the HST in all the way – so easily adjustable from like a few fpe to 38fpe! but this is the standard and not the shorty, the cocking is smooth as butter and the trigger is to die for, quiet as a mouse even at high power, even the stock is growing on me!
Fatdude,
Thats pretty hot, Did you do anything to the gun?
I got one of the first 22 Mutants shortys in US, Brian had it first, I know latter on the shorty came with one inch longer barrels, Little more FPS, the only way I think to get mine to shoot a little more FPS is to run with the gun while shooting. :rofl: :rofl:
Not sure if they changed the standerd Mutant barrel,
I got Linstone barrel that will shoot any thing accurate, Not sure who put the barrel on the gun? (Brian)
I bought a CZ barrel and its pretty picky about its pellets ,
iride, my .22 mutant standard really is the real deal – easily adustable power externally without having to take off the stock – at max HST 822fps jsb straton monster 25.39g, 38.12fpe!! and its really quiet too even at this power :4:

LOL, it was a brother in law ,
You know these PCP guns are more than just load a pellet in the barrel and shoot,
Its really a dam expensive sport to get into , Once you got all the stuff , It gets real cheap to shoot.
But then there is always a new doodad , that comes out that will be so cool on the gun,
Ten years ago I would not have loaned out my 760 crosman , I am sure age has some thing to do with it and wanting to help and warn someone about the PCP sport.
