50 what? Degrees? Feet? Yards? miles?  :D

Looks good regardless of your answer though! Great buy.

Yards.....
I thought that was the defacto standard, for a new rifle to flex it's accuracy muscles   :D

Great gun and great groups! Is that a .25 or a .22?

WOW! What a tight 50 yard group in freezing weather no less.  It has been below freezing here in the south and can't imagine in your area being the "windy city", but that's what a new gun will do to you.  I have seen some really tight groups posted the last couple of days but not one at that range.  Makes me itch or something.  Nice gun.

Out of the box or pro tuned the rifle is only 1/2 of the equation it still requires a skilled shooter to get the most out of the rifle. Travis worked his magic and you worked yours, good group and great shooting new rifle congratulations

Nice shooting!

 ;) I will venture a WAG some where between 850 FPS to 900 FPS and I have a dollar says I'm correct

@ 900 fps its a 45 FPE rifle. 

Accuracy of this unit is nothing short of amazing to me.
Im very interested in the Kral...PB . The marine synthetic will be a popular combo.

What is the travitized treatment  and total cost to get that unit in your hands , sans bipod and scope ?

Derrick you have quite a list of airguns!!

What rings do you have your scope mounted with ?

Great shooting and obviously the WAR tune is worth it.  I have a .25 on hold at Travis' that I'll be picking up on my way home to WA from AZ in less than a month.

 Outstanding Derrick!
 My expectation quotient just went up another 25%.! I'm waiting for my Kral .25 in walnut from Wicked. This is the kind of accuracy I'm hoping for.
 What scope are you using? high mounts?
 I just ordered some grizzly hollow points and I'm looking at some custom made lead Heavy flat points around 45gr.  I want to see what she'll do with a heavy pellet for hunting small to medium game like raccoon, woodchuck, north American marsupial, maybe coyote if I can call 'em in close enough.  The pellet that prints the best groups will ultimately go to the field for hunting. and those are some fine looking 50 yr. groups.
 Looking forward to hearing from all you other Puncher Breaker owners out there . Lets see pics, groups and comments.
 cheers,
  D.

Nice shooting 8) I'm glad to see these Krals ability to preform at 50 yards. I'd love to see a side by side comparison between the tuned model vs out of the box.

Question for Kral PB owners ( sent Travis a PM but think he's in bed with the flu ) there is a small hole in the shroud of mine. What is its purpose ?

That is to help vent the waste air from inside the shroud that is stripped by the baffles and air stripper

Sftail, thanks. thats wwhat I  thought but wanted to be sure before  I started shooting it.

Several of my PCP rifles have a small vent hole drilled into the underside of the shroud close to the breech

 I'll double check but the only hole I believe in the shroud is for grub that threads into the threaded insert that screws onto barrel.  There may be a second hole I'm missing, so I'll double check.

There's a special Allen head screw that holds the shroud to the stripper .  I'm still in bed with the flu feeling a tiny bit better  I might even eat something today

Probably from working so hard and not enough sleep... Get some rest, little chicken soup works wonders tho I had to go to Dr and get a jug of antibiotics cause I couldn't shake the "dang" bug I had a couple weeks ago.

Check your stripper it's probably screwed into it...
