Well it's done for now, the Exterior modifications are complete, it lost over a pound of weight with the mods and it also gained a better look, it weighs 7.8 lbs with scope, that's pretty light for such a long gun, I added a picatinny rail for the Bipod and installed a DonnyFL Sumo, the scope is a Discovery HI 5-20x50 SFIR, the rings are UTG 30mm with picatinny to dovetail adapters,
I'm gonna test it out tomorrow at the range and see if I need to modify the barrel for slugs and any other modification that will be needed..... ;D ;D ;D
A Hot Gauntlet and Hot Guitars....... I love Flying V's

Kevin! Looks amazing! Have fun dialing it in and seeing if it needs any other internal mods! Matches well with your guitars!

Shot the Gauntlet today, charged it to 3600 psi, all my bottles had, the first fill lasted almost all day, got 192 shots from 3600 to 1500 psi at 899 fps with benji's 14.3 hollow points, benji's 14's and JSB 18's were the most accurate, getting about 1/2" groups at 40 yards with Benji's and a little tighter groups with the JSB 18's, it didn't like the Slugs at all, FX and NSA .22, too tight of a fit loading, lots of flyers, I think I will leave the Barrel alone and just shoot pellets from it, maybe get a LW polygon unchoked for Slugs??? I don't know, but for now it shoots really well and is very comfortable to shoot and that shot count...... :o :o :o ;D, fill it once your good all day.... ;) ;) ;)

192 shots!? Holy moly your Gauntlet is EFFICIENT to say the least! LW polys do well with slugs. Your mods worked to perfection! Enjoy shooting it all day on one fill! LOL!

And it's going to get more shots once I refill my tanks..... all my tanks were down to 3600 or around there, I been switching them when I fill the Uragan, the Uragan gets well over 100 shots per fill and it's a .25 so I knew the Gauntlet would do better, 500cc tanks are the way to go...... ;)

I made a new name for the gun,
Gauntlet 500/4500 Tactical Chassis gun, The word "Tactical" has to be in the name so everyone will want one.... ;D ;D ;D 8)

Welcome

I took the Gauntlet .22 to the range today, has a full 4500 psi fill in the 500cc tank, shot it all day on that fill, from 4500 to 1500 psi I got 285 shots at 890 fps, shooting JSB 18's, and it was shooting very accurately, dime size groups at 25 yards, quarter size groups at 50 yards..... not bad ;)
