Testing Times

[si brown 8,486]

finally got some time to myself so its testing time for the .177 slimline

had a few goes with it on friday before i had to get the kids from school but was p!ssed off cos the one pellet i really wanted it to like

is a non starter:( the h&n barracuda hunter extreme

only chrono'd the three

aa field 781@ 11.7

h&n extreme 747@11.9

jsb heavy 721@11.8

no problem with the power

all 13 shot groups at 20m just as a guide to what it likes... no re zero or pull through

found most pellets close up after the first 3 shots so some of the groups that look sh!te aren't really that bad.... still need to session the contenders!

think some of the grouping could be improved by using a different scope, not to sure about this viper, like my traditional ones

I've put 13 mags through her witch equals 169 shots running from 220bar down to 70bar... it can be filled to 230bar but ill stay safe!

and the stocks looking better/darker after two rubdowns with the stock conditioner, still needs a few more!

Doesn't look pellet fussy really Si.

Some great groups with various makes there mate

Nice looking rifle Si

 

The group from the AA Fields is pretty shit hot

 

I'd be tempted to test the JSB Heavies a bit more - they really crack a rabbit at that power.

Same mate. Skin full myself. Spent some time in the garden on the paper. Then a walk round a rabbit field but saw f'kall let alone take any shots.

bit more geek sh!t

express 823@11.88

super domes 790@11.50

acc ft 774@11.44

ftt 767@11.26

fap 851@11.74

mags 698@11.43

sniper sh!te 808@10,87

aa field.... powers up slightly after messing with adjuster 797@11.85

superfield 784@11.46

some good pellets in there to choose from... the baracuders don't load very smoothly and i think there getting deformed resulting in flyers!

single loader required for bird bashing

I haven't got my eye on anything new yet mate but, I have just put in a couple of orders for bits for the 97.

..... if the weather stays like this, I'm really going to enjoy laying outside warrens with it - one of my permissions is 2 minutes away from work

 

 

.... You're getting some good speeds from those FAPs mate

It really looks nice Si, next time we get together I would like a closer look at that, could be one I am interested in because of it's weight.

 

Really good meeting you today mate, thanks for taking time out to bring the gun for me.
