So we have one guy who feels they are a good dealer to deal with

Has anyone bought from Precision Airguns? How are they?

I have. Good people to deal with.

Anyone here remember the days of 80+ fpe with Jerry’s slugs… :whistle:

Accurate too. πŸ˜‰

Totally possible with the right ammo. :4:

Granted you can’t get those slugs anymore. Also a bummer nobody has made a mold yet. 😐

Is it .25 for sure? .30 could get you to 80fpe w/ pellets at reasonable speeds for accuracy

quote oldgoat:

80fpe is just crazy for a 25 cal pellet shooting gun!

Chairgun says that you will need to shoot 25.4 grain JSBs at 1192fps to get 80fpe.

Chairgun says you only need to shoot 31 grain Barracudas at 1072fps to get 80fpe.

Chairgun doesn’t say if you need to insert the head or the skirt end first for the best accuracy.

At those speeds: I don’t think that it would make much difference.

The 80fpe Cricket must use cast bullets and if it does, who makes the barrel for it? What caliber is the barrel? What weight cast bullet is it shooting? How many regulated shots per fill?

X2, 80 fpe with pellets won’t work, too fast. Must be slugs….

IΒ΄d say the same as OG & Trygve. My un-educated quess for the max power level for good accuracy in .25 is around 80 J with 30 gr. pellets. Any faster than that and the accuracy is gone. I know nothing about cast AG bullets .

quote RIDETOEAT:

I looked on Pyramid site and they listed a .25 enjun at 43.2 grains

– which are the pellets that grouped the best in the AR80, – but still nothing to brag about. Headshots ??? Forget it…….! πŸ˜‰

Old Goat, what bbl. is right! If the right bbl. we’ve got some bullets for it! πŸ˜‰

Knife

About 80 ft/bs:

As you say OG, – the speed of commercially available pellets has to be close to “supersonic” to achieve 80ft/lbs in a cal. 25 airgun……

I have a lot of experience with my own DS AirRanger 80 which on top of the curve actually offers those velocities. Only for a few shots though (the shot string is terrible in this unregulated gun).

And yes I have tried all commercially available pellets in this caliber including Daystate’s own…..

If accuracy is what you’re after, – just forget it. You’ll be lucky to hit a barn door at 50 mts. It was so bad that just zeroing the gun was more or less impossible……

I’ll be very surprised if a Cricket is able to deliver any better……..

We’ll find out I guess……… πŸ˜‰

I wonder what the $400 extra is spent on to get that power.

Only way to get 80 FPE is to use cast bullets, so I’ll bet it’s accurate
