Q:

Shooting lighter 25cal pellets in matador

Has anyone tried tuning down the 25 matador to shoot the 20 grain (or so) pellets at acceptable speeds? Just wondering if anyone has had any luck trying this. I was thinking about getting a can of the h&n feild target or Gamos and trying them out with a little less regulator but decided against cause I’ve only got $100 to spend lead and one tin problaby wouldn’t be worth the work of adjusting/testing/getting a few groups at close range, then running out and having to swap we’re thing back for the barracudas and the jsb.

Them Fuxers are everywhere ! I met a load of those during my MX career. Nice people , not overly bright but nice. Good for business for those who sell spares too so they are a positive for the entiry Hobby. :rofl:

The best of the Pack are the “Alpha Fuxers” – those “in-the-know”. You´ve surely met them ; They know it all, much like me …

Lol there’s a couple of people on here that feel the need to do that to their matadors.

Sorry,I forgot about this topic once the”surprise ice storm” hit and I had to switch into survivor mode. Please explain what fuxing means.

Fuxing {noun} Pronounced [Fuk sing]
Meaning; A less than stellar job of repairing your air gun, trying to fix a problem that doesn’t exist with your air gun, fixing your air gun until you break something.
The word Fuxing originates from an old Chinese phrase, the phrase loosely translated is: “me weed too much forwum cwap and get wery wery bad adwice.. my gun was working perfekrie until I fuxt it up.. “ :ugeekn:

The beauty of the Bobcat is when it fails you can slam that ugly stock on the beast at hand and slay him handily. :horse:

Wait for it: Fugly and the Beast? Fugly is nearly as good as Fuxing – my new favorite term from NZ. 😆

I still get a kick out of Ted’s video where is shooting from inside his minivan and wrestling that big Bobcat like a fat woman.

What have those Fatties ever done to deserve such insult ? Compare them to the Big Cat … Pffffttt…. :angrymob:

Hey the word is the Bobcats are big and heavy and have very little kick. Good for filming while shooting. :suprisedn:

The word is actually ; The BobCat is Fugly, big,heavy and so on. Good for filming though – as long as the BC is behind the Camera and not in front of one.

Good for filming, bad for all else? I’d rather have a gun that’s bad for filing and great for killing shit.

Then the BC is taylormade for you! It´s good for filing all kinds of stuff and due its shear size and weight it can also be used for killing – if you have the strength to swing the bugger. Also – as the age old truth : If looks could kill …

Very well formulated indeed. So you DO have the knack. Congratulations. :whistle:

Fail is the new suck. Suck is the old fail. Epic fail = old school suck. I’m old school.

So basically everything suck, Huh ?? Your formulation was probably very good. Maybe someone with a knack for formulation can answer to that… :rofl:

I thought the reason Ed was claiming better accuracy with 22 was the calmer shot cycle(less kick). I’m not trying to win any ft competitions. Just asking if anyone has had any luck or port results. I know several people have tried these pellets, just not with the necessary changes in power. I’m sure they suck ass at 1050 fps or whatever speeds they would be flying at.

I sure the larger drag coefficient profile of the larger outside diameter without the accompanying increase in weight will cause a lower bc and wind suspect ability is the main reason for less accuracy from a light 25 vs a heavy 22. I understand the dynamics of the equations ened if I ain’t schooled enuff to actually solve dem.
is that good “formulating a subject” for ya?

Forgive the typos, iPad suck, driving suck, first snow in 10 years suck.

quote Sir Ville:

There´s more to the equation than just the pellet weight and velocity. Maybe someone here , with proper knowledge and a knack for formulating a subject , can explain why two pellets weighing the same, shot at the same velocity BUT in two different calibers behave so differently.
