Title: XP airguns ranger 45 caliber 36inch barrel rifle
Post by: Dan H on May 02, 2011, 02:52:18 AM
I just got my xp airguns ranger 45 caliber in this week , this gun  is a shooting  monster !  

Dan Mcvey shot a 430 grain bullet out of my gun before he shipped it on high power 4500 psi 875fps 731fpe the 3rd shot fired out of the new gun , this should improve around 50fps after break in according to Dan .

I have a Richards microfit stock tiger wood laminate -thumb hole target style stock , that i had richards make the front extra wide , and make the cheak peice extra high so it would alien with the scope better , i used west systems epoxy with the 207 clear hardner to finish the stock , 4 coats then  sanded to 1500 grit , then buffed with 2 compounds to a high gloss finish.

Saturday i put  about 150 rounds through it , using 454 round ball -250 grain laser cast bullets , to start to break the gun in  

the power is amazing on this gun on mid power using 454 round ball  3800 psi the gun shot 1150 fps then worked down 9 shots to 877 fps on 1 charge of air , i was very surprised that i could get that many shots at over the 900fps.

250 grain laser cast bullets shot mid power 4200 psi  987fps then worked it's way down to 720fps  after 9 shots.

this is during break in so these number should improve around 50 fps according to Dan Mcvey at xp-airguns .

today I shot about 200 rounds off , and tethered the gun to a 44cf tank that was at 3400 psi and shot it at low power till that cylinder was down to 1700 psi then switched to one of my 88cf tanks and shot a bunch more .

 So very pleased to have you join us here at the GTA Dan, and thanks for bringing that beauty with you ;)  If i had the extra money, i'd be ordering one of those quick, that shot count and power is astounding. Do you hunt with your bigbore(s) or just an extreme airgunner? Were you quite pleased with your purchase from Richards? Jeff

Thanks JonnyReb , i have had the Korean guns -sam yang 909 Tom Basile moded 308 caliber barrel , career mk300 -22, Sumatra -22  , for some years now . i have been waiting and waiting for the right big bore that could shoot 4500 psi with massive power to come out ,none before the ranger messured up to what i wanted ,

 Dan Mcvey -xp-airguns made it happen developing his ranger 45-58 caliber guns .

so i got on his list , and now have my dream gun ! HA ! HA ! very happy with this super gun !

the powder burners were AMAZED ! at the power that this gun had over this weekend , when they heard it shoot , they came over and asked   " what kind of gun is that ? "  then after i would show them what i was shooting ,and how it all worked , they were very impressed to say the least .

Richards micro fit makes a good product, but Dan now has a stock maker that will cut the ranger action in what ever style stock that you want , i had to cut the inlet myself and the action/trigger  area out with my die grinders and using a piece of round tubbing , and sand paper , very time consuming , i had to really ride Richards to get my stock done to be honest with you , but it did turn out the way i wanted it to , i had them leave the cheak piece 2 inches high so i could shape it the way i wanted it ,also i had them make the stock wider 3 1/2 inches wide,the length   of the inlet front area , i am going to make ,or buy, and ultra light stock for hiking with the gun i think .

 Marvin,  i think it's time to do some casting , i know your Gargoyle gun has the same barrel i think ? and you have a ton of experiance casting lead bullets ,what hardness of lead mix should i use for casting round ball /bullets for the ranger ?

What I have experience  with both a RCBS and a LEE .454 RB mold is . With pure lead they dropped .452-.453 RB . With 12 bhn they dropped .456-.457 . Hope that helps . I noticed that Roto now has a 40 to 1 as well as 30 to 1 . RB are RB and very accurate is some rifles out to 50 yards or so . But you can not re size them and my experience again is between 50-60 yards what was super accurate became very inaccurate . But I have never been able to push them as fast as you . These two reasons are why I went with that 142-145 grain accurate mold that I call my mini maxi ball that you see pictured .Marvin

Marvin .. i decided to order everything tomorrow

melting pot 20lbs
flux
kroil for the mold
454 round ball mold

Marvin what all molds do you use that worked good for you on the 452 ? , and who sells them , and   how much $$$ do they cost , i was just going to use pure lead i think  , i can get it for a little over 1 buck a pound.

Pure lead is hard to get to fill the mold out . As you can see by the size difference in the RB. I like fast flat shooting rifles . It helps to keep the hold over down with BB. Even with hunting you do not know if your game will be 35 or 65 yards away .And a flat trojectory is nice to have . All the energy you need is to get to the internal organs .  I do not have a lot of heavy weight molds . Marvin

Marvin ..thanks ...are all of those 454  size ?  i noticed the 452 laser cast stuff shot better at low power 2500 psi maybe the size is the problem 452 ? that smaller 145g accurate bullet looks like a good plinker round ,that would not waist a lot of lead or air .

Post by: melloroadman on May 03, 2011, 01:31:29 PM
I noted on each mold the size . Some are .452 and some .454 . But even the .452 molds drop .453-455 with different lead . I re size all my bullets to .452 which is the groove size of the barrel . Dans recommended size as well . I have heard it stated that with a long heavy bullet that is larger than .452 that the bullet starts to engrave the rifling and it becomes hard to close the bolt . In other words the bullet is being pushed beyond the throat to far .As of yet I have never ran a bullet over groove diameter . The bullet rides on the lands which are smaller than the bullet diameter to start with . All that lead has to go some were . Lead is only so plastic and elasticable . Then it gets sheard to the base which causes accuracy problem .IMO Marvin

Marvin , Charlie has set me some 408grain -  45-425b accurate mold number sized to 452 , that i am going to test out , they did well in his 28inch barreled ranger , if they do good in mine , i will  get that one for a heavy bullet to shoot on high  power .

Dan if you are still thinking about the mold that I have . I can send you a few to try before you buy the mold . I have had no problem so far in the two rifles I have shot them in . I don't really have time to cast and sell bullets right now . And then the issues that shooters and other casters that sell throw at you just don't make it worth it . This is a hobby to me not a ego trip if you know what I mean . E-mail me and let me know how many you would need as well as your address if you want . Marvin

Marvin,
This is  like one of those double-takes you do.......... who the heck was that girl?  Only it's , what the heck is that bullet.  Are we a twisted bunch or what, LOL. 

But seriously, You say that's an accurate bullet.  What the heck is it ?  Molds and calibers?  Have you shot any of them?  In what caliber?  First time a bullet has done that to me.

Thanks,
Lloyd

Read the header on it . The caliber is .452 . It states the RCBS mold number as well . No longer made . But it is now a RCBS .454 . Very close if you compair the two . I did not send you any because you can not buy the mold any longer unless you find a used one . Yes it is accurate and my heavy weight at 260 grains .
I did not send you any thing that is a obsolete mold bullet at this time . Did not see any point in it . The lee bullets I sent you I have never really taken the time to do accuracy test with . So let me know how they do . The other two are as accurate as can be in my rifle .You should get them tomorrow I would think .Marvin

Thanks Marvin,
You may have gotten the posts from me and Dan H co-mingled.  But that's the info I needed for that bullet.  I wasn't sure the header belonged to that mold or the one above it, so thanks for clearing that up and verifying the accuracy.

I can tell that I am slowly being drawn to the candle flame of bullet casting.  I am starting to see why so many folks do it.
Thanks again,
Lloyd

Marvin , thanks for those bullets , i got them yesterday , that little 145 looks like a great light shooter ! ,

i did some casting the last 2 days after work with the 454 roundball mold , i shot what i casted , and they were dead on at 50 yards . i just stuck new balls in the holes so people could see how well they fit in the 3/4 inch plywood after being shot since a few had questions as to how big of a hole that roundball would leave .

They are a fast flat shooting bullet . Heavy enough for a coyote at 100 yards or a ground hog at 125 . And you do not have to shim your scope to do it . Not much drop with the light lead . Makes a big game rifle into a mid to small game shooter .Marvin

OK i got a bunch of bullets casted , 348 grain casull 452 accurate mold and a 425 grain that sized down to 452 ,is 416 grains , they hit very hard at over 900 fps 4200 psi , both bullets go through 5 sheets of 3/4 plywood then barry themselves about 1 inch into a half round of wood , at 50 yards .

Dan,
Very nice, glad to see you are shooting it a lot.
I notice that the plywood you are using is the sturdier 7-ply stuff.  Looks like serious fun to me.
900 fps is a nice flat-shooting gun.

Thanks Lloyd , this gun really amazes me, and the other people i have let shoot it ,

 now after testing several different bullet designs , i /we have come up with a few bullets that shoot well ,so far the round ball 454/142 grain  / casull /452/348 grain cast in pure lead , and the 416 grain bullet   , work well ,

1 of Marvin's bullets the 216 rcbs bullet looks to be a shooter , i need to do some more test with it, but the first shots lined up right to left with the normal drop with pressure drop as you shoot more shots out of the gun .

OK .... i have a new bullet 255 grain flat nose- Lee mold .

The test was teathered up keeping each shot charged at 3000 psi with the gun set on low power , distance was 50 yards / at over 900fps .

the top circle was the first 4 shots ,aiming 2 mil-dots high in my scope centering on the circle on all 4 shots , just to figure out grouping area ,

The middle circle ,and lower circle ....i centered the circles between the 1st mil-dot and 2nd mildot looking through my scope , i think my shooting was a bit better on the lower circle , after warming up on the higher circles .

I think this bullet is a keeper at this point , a good low power shooter , the design on this bullet is kinda of like the 348 g casull/ 416 g bullet -accurate mold , that i have been shooting.

  (http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh217/holditonhanson/100_2855.jpg)

1st bullet is the 255 grain lee

2nd bullet is the 348 grain casull accurate mold

3rd bullet is a 416 grain accurate mold

Dan it looks like it is coming together for you . Dan McVey has brought the BB to a new level for sure . Power , accuracy , and quality all in one package . You for sure are a marksman as well . And it looks like you have a good start on casting as well . Buy a bhn tester so you know were you are at at all times and enjoy .Marvin

Dan,
Sounds like you are enjoying the heck out of that gun.  Good thing you are casting your own bullets, it has quite an appetite.
