philpot 5,020 Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 It is very rare we see any footage of .177 being used at fac levels which made this vid quite interesting. Not sure what FPE it is running at but it states it is 935FPS throgh an Impact. It seems there are some rather large rats in South Africa and although no distances are given, it certainly stops them.

philpot 5,020 Posted February 4, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 Well we know sub 12 is more than capable of shooting rats Mitch in fact that is all I used for a couple of years linked to the fact that fac in .177 has very little following in the UK, I just wondered what they would be like not that I am wanting a .177 (except Jimmy's FX Verminator), give me a .25 fac any day of the week. You sound a right moaner tonight Mitch, whats up, a shit day, just something to look at as it's got VERY slow on here lately. Phil 1 1 Quote Link to post

I'm in the process of getting a kral mortal not every ones kind of rifle mind it being a tactical designed rifle But what gets me is every time you search on utube for them or any other rifle from kral all you get is lads from S, A shooting high powered rifles witch dose not help us when we are researching them in sud 12 As in high power we no there going to be far better than a sud 12 rifle And for what we use them for and what we can achieve with a sub 12 rifle I reckon they would be crying if they had to use one of ours lol Any way here is the mortal And yes as soon as a member of the public see, s me I recon in about 30 minutes I'd be covered in red dots Off the police 2 Quote Link to post
