Edgun Is Awfully Bad…….Graphic!
My goal is to tune my Matador to shoot at 890 fps with the highest standard described by Dr. Edgun: “3-4 fps shot to shot variation and a max speed spread of 10-12 fps”. I increased reg pressure a little bit few days ago because the gun can only shoot ~870 fps at optimal HST. Installed the Combro and chrony the speed without stock on for easy HST adjustment. Sitting on my rock chair and shot the gun through the window toward the lake. It is difficult to shoulder the gun without the stock on, and I don’t have a gun vise to fix the gun. This is what the Matador did, he killed the window not once but twice. He is a bad boy… awfully bad! I left the room and said to my wife that Matador is in big trouble… To ease an angry wife, I said to her that I have taken a proper action by grounding him in the closet for 3 days…no human visitors allowed…
That was an insulated double-pane window and Matador killed it without hesitation. First shot is called “accident” and the second shot on the right is called “stupidity.” Metador deserves punishment! Just for my own record, it is approximately 17” c-t-c at 3.2 yards. 😳
The string will be completed once he gets out on parole, I hope.

I shot my large picture window at point blank range when I laid my air force Talon on a table and it discharged.
The pellet was a light 14gr flat tip. It hit the window, didn’t crack it, didn’t break it, caused no visible harm at all. On the floor was the .22 caliber pellet smashed flat and the size, shape of a nickle, and as thin as tin foil.
That was beyond strange, as that pellet was traveling over 850 fps when it hit. The window was perhaps 24″ away.
Apparently it hit dead flat center, and all the energy was directed outwards towards the edges. I’ve never seen a .22 pellet smashed that thin before, or since.
I didn’t have the same luck when I shot my Chrony right between the eyes.
Oh well….as Benedict Arnold cried out, just before he was hanged…“Shit Happens!”
