Have.135 wire installed in this gun.Interesting!Few questions come to mind:Pellet weight?Was the steel plate supported rigidly or hanging?MANY Years ago, with no real Chronos around, part of the gunsmithing art was knowing how to read the pellet splats. IIRC, some writer used to call it "splatology", LOL!Keep us posted!HM
Used JSB Exacts Heavy's 10.34 grain the metal is L shaped layed upright on the ground.
My chrony results. Looked down the barrel after each shot just a tiny smoke ball down the barrel. I put this .135 spring in last year really don’t know how many shots I have on it. Shoots pretty steady. Metal measured 1.15mm comes out 19 gauge mild metal.
Mr. Medina, Thanks for the info about 'splatology'.I assumed there was a way to calculate fps and fpe wituout a chrony, but I wouldn't have guessed how. Neat!
