Found a bit more in it. 1000 FPS with Hades .22 out of this little thing. Accurate as heck too!
Travis , You really need to try some .221 “ bullets in it. The RWS bullets that come from Krale shoot excellent in those barrels even as low as 500 FPS. They also really like the JSB monsters. I like the balanced valve you did on that one. I went with a cobra set up and a heavier hammer to make up the loss. One of those guns I’ll never get rid of. It’s been opened up probably close to 30 times and I still haven’t ever had a problem with it.

I do have a .25 barrel and mag with this gun. Ill swap them and see what she will do. No way in stock form it could push a .30 and even a .25 is way under powered in stock form. The platform is awesome I really like it a lot!!!Yeah not the K model,But the full sized models had some serious power, Rich has a .30 Bottle version that I really wanted to buy but he just asks to much money unfortunately

Denis, what kind of accuracy/groups are you getting with those bullets? I have a bottle gun conversion of AR6 pistol ongoing and I haven't quite decided on the barrel configuration - I have 10" original barrel, 14" Crosman barrel and 27" FX liner that I could use.
Tore into the rifle last night to prep for the 700cc bottle. Opened up the transfer port and barrel port to .210” . Then replaced the jet size on the cobra valve to one that was slightly bigger for faster opening. Put it back together and hit 83 fpe shooting the 41 grain RWS bullets and 86 fpe with the 39 grain cast. 955 and 990 FPS . This was peak velocity at 185 bar. This should give a real good shot string from 200 bar to 150 bar. I’m absolutely certain the AR6 k is capable of the same power. With a few mods .

Here’s my old Avatar pic . This was shot at about 100 yards with this rifle with cast 225-39 bullets sized to .2216”. I’m hoping to get out and see if they shoot as well with the added velocity. I also have the same mold decked down to cast them at 31 grain . This was done by one of our own Knifemaker. The RWS bullets shoot also very well as they ship and I’ve never sized them. As for pics of the rifle , it haven’t changed since I added the hammer sights to it. It can be seen in my review with mods.
