Both my re-built 880's are a bit slow for the amount of pumps needed for about 600+ fps IMHO. I usually pump these guns to about 8 to 10 pumps which gives me close to 550 to 590ish fps with 10.5 gr CPH pellets, is that about normal for a gun that has had the piston head JB welded and a shim under the hammer spring ... so far that is all I have done power mod wise on these two guns ?
Was wondering if pumping 12 times for hunting would be OK in a hunting scenario to give me a flatter trajectory and 5.5ish fpe at 45 yards ?
The Brown gun gives me about 12ish fps more per pump than the Black gun. At 12 pumps as an example the Brown gun gives me about 620fps, the Black gun about 610 fps. Both guns are are capable to shoot around 590ish, but the Brown gun took 10 pumps to do it while the Black gun took 11.
Below is a pic of both guns.
