Title: Vortek Pro-Guide2 kit
Post by: ICEMAN on October 10, 2010, 01:07:14 AM

I am thinking about installing the Vortek kit in my Diana 48's. Would like to know about the power and accuracy. Can anyone pass on any experience with the kit?

Thanks:

I have the Vortek system in both of my R9's. Here are the numbers  

.177 Before Vortek
JSB 7.9 865 fps
CP box 7.9 850 fps

After Vortek
JSB 7.9 962 fps
CP box 7.9 948 fps  16 fpe

.20 Before Vortek
H&N 11.5  772 fps
JSB 13.7 692

After Vortek
H&N 11.5 830
JSB 13.7 767fps   17.5 fpe

Both rifles cock extremely smooth, the twang is gone and accuracy has improved. I get one ragged hole at 20 yards with both R9"s. The Vortek system works!!!!!

Thanks Rico14, Just the information I needed to know. I sure am addicted to power and accuracy.

I will send my Diana 177 to Vortek in the morning by UPS.
