this thing is unreal!!

shooting off sandbags, the whole family was EXPLODING 1″ – 1.5″ diameter crab-apples @ 50 yards
me, the wife and my 7yo daughter, who thought it was too easy @ 32x (Hawke 8-32×56) …
so I dropped it down to 8x and the lil stink still hit 9 for 9 of those apples 😯

just snagged a lightly used BOSS off the yellow classified

figure all the bugs should be out by now

I’ll post up anything worth showing 😉

.

whats been bouncing around in my head is that i would be more likely to shoot a gun well that i shoot often. therefore, given my environment/situation, I’d shoot a gun like the boss more than i would a super condor.

75 +/- FPE is plenty for my acre backyard.

like i said there isnt…Read more

so what kind of shot count are you getting from your standard AF tank?

the picture you posted of that jack (rabbit) turned inside-out says a 1000 words about the power! 😈

colder weather and the fact that its dark by the time i get home these days has put this project into a holding pattern

.

should that be read:

Some day I will build [a] complete frame.

or

Some day I will build complete frame[s].

That Condor is/was such a frustrating money-pit i would start off with a new (TT?) gun if i was to go that route. I just don’t trust one part of it anymore (except for Walt’s barrel).

phhht, like i said this is the first stock Ive ever finished so i have no idea how many coats. from what Ive read, 10-15 is what most people end up with, so thats what I’m shooting for.

The factory stock does not have a change to compare with this 1 you’re making dude. Nice job.

I am not sure if you make any for sale?

o NO NO!

other than that, this caught my eye…

my Condor will be my .25

I noticed they push pretty deep into the barrel.

me too

.

seeing as i was one of the ones who posted a good group of “shots that CRACKED”, i guess i should comment.

i did shoot a few more groups and this time they were 1200+ and @50 yards … things did not look so nice.

i cant say for sure but I’m going to GUESS that the JSB’s can group JUST into the transonic range but once pushed well into the…Read more

no dont have a pic
and my Mrod is (still) @ GregD’s 🙁

BUT..

back in September when i did have it i took them out.

needless to say my mem might be a bit off but, as i recall, they were:

just hollow “buckets” with flat bottoms and a hole in the center.

GUESS:” 1/8″ thick “plastic”

nothing great, just what i could find off a quick search

ghod-damn-it!!

i HATE this weather!!!
(north-eastern Ohio lake effect)

i get home with enough daylight left to shoot for maybe 30 min except i cant see the friggn target through all the snow! 👿

4″ – 8″ (of SNOW) by morning…. great 🙄

got 500 more 18grain and 600x 25grain JSBs on the way

cant say for sure when i can do any more testing, but i will follow up on the supersonic side along with the “(any) JSB pellet shoots GREAT” path.

think ill start with:
– pushing the 18’s as hard as this rig can and see (if) where they destabilize.
– try the 25grain MONSTERS
– then try…Read more

thats 30 shots with NO re-fills.

2500 psi start PW: -0-
dry fired 4-6 till i could hear the valve was opening

i THINK group 5 and 6 were down in the mid/low 900’s
about 1/2 way into group #3 there were no more CRACKs

BUT

it was getting COLD and the wife wanted me “IN for DINNER” ASAP around group 4 so i was rushing a bit.

.

finally found 30 min to shoot…

went through about 30 or so .22 Kodiaks trying to break this barrel in.

just for grins & giggles i thought id shoot a few groups of JSB Heavies (18g) to see how fast they were going to go.

CRACK! (1120)
CRACK! (1118)

it was sold as a “never shot barrel” so im assuming its machining “lube” and or rust inhibitor from the factory.
