First rat with my Mac1 1322
« on: February 02, 2012, 02:03:02 AM »
20 minutes ago I shot my first rat with the Mac1 1322. :D
Distance about 17 yards.Shot it of a wire.
It's the second one this year. They are few and far between these days.
Not a big one, just average sized (16 inches).
 I love this gun. It's so accurate.

Looks like a fun shooter, and nice shot! What have you got on it? A 14" barrel and FT piston & Valve?

Thanks. Barrel is a 16" .It doesn't have a FT piston. It's a stock piston tuned by Tim.
Gives about 530FPS at 15 pumps.

Nice! I'm planning on getting an  18" barrel and FT piston and valve from MellonAir for my 1322. It should be a pretty hot shooter when I'm done with it. Hopefully around 600 FPS in .22.

Yeah, it's fun.
Do you sit in one place and put bait out or do you move around?

Thanks. I agree, rats are great targets. They're quick and smart. You have to be fast.

It's better if you call Tim and talk to him.
I have the same problem with cats. Fortunately the rats are in my back yard and the cats mostly in front of the house. :D

First of all great shot on that rat! That's some good power your tuned 1322 is putting out, what kind of pellets are you using?
