Title: Thinking about a disco
Post by: Whatsquirrel on March 25, 2016, 01:02:21 AM

I've been think about getting a disco just for a 12fpe .177 gun. Found a place that has the package deal gun & the pump for $400. What kinda shot count could I expect from a 12fpe tune on hpa, then what about c02?

Have also been thinking of getting a Benjamin Discovery but the full power version . Have a look here at the UK test of the .177 version   "http://www.gunmart.net/gun_review/crosman_benjamin_discovery"
They got about 40 good shots. If you want lower power you could also run full power version of the Discovery on CO2. See Airgun Experts video  "Benjamin Discovery dual fuel CO2 "

My .177 Discovery with a cut down striker spring and a HDD debouncer installed will yield 50 good shots with a 1625 psi fill. It takes about 37 real easy pumps of
the Benjamin pump to refill. (12 foot pounds)
