Ive completed my 2289 build and would like to know the power she has. I dont have a real chronograph so I downloaded Chrono Connect Mobile Pro for my ipad.
The app seems to give some consistent numbers just not sure how accurate they are.
The Power Modifications to my 2289:
Steel Breech
18 Barrel
Polished Trigger
Lighter Trigger Spring with Guide
Extended Bolt Probe
Transfer Port Poly Tubing Modification
Flat top piston features a brass head, a stainless steel nut, and a 6061 aluminum body with a delrin
sleeve for a very rigid and smooth design.
Flat top valve with the exhaust port angled, the stem has been turned to improve flow and it's
been faced.
Heavier Hammer Spring
Stainless Non-slip Pump Pin
The Power which is the average of 3 shots using CP 14.3 grain pellets:
Pumps FPS
15 642
12 606
10 570
9 545
8 522
7 492
6 463
5 423
4 364
3 316

Pretty stout, but not unbelieveable....

Can you tell us more about this app? Does it use decibel levels to estimate velocity? Not sure what other data it could be working off of.

I was thinking they were a little stout as well but maybe they are close.
The gun stock was shooting around 460 fps at 10 pumps according to Chrono Connect Pro which seems to be in the right ball park. Although, a little lower than the 480 fps stated by Crosman which is to be expected. I also have a Crosman M4-177 which is supposed to shoot around 630 fps but according to the Chrono Connect Pro it's shooting in the 560 range with pellets and a little stronger with bbs but nothing near 630 fps.
It's probably close. Maybe i'll have to invest in an F1.

Here's a link to the app, http://www.chronoconnect.com/mobile.html (http://www.chronoconnect.com/mobile.html) which basically measures the speed between the sound of the gun firing and the pellet hitting it's mark. You set all the parameters in the app before using it such as target distance, muzzle to device distance and muzzle height distance to device. Then you enter your pellet information, caliber, weight and shape.

Sounds about right to me.

Close enough I guess, just like horseshoes and hand grenades.
I like your scrolling Rat Kills!

i like the chrono connect app,
works great for finding the bell curve on PCP guns.
even if the numbers arent dead on,it will still consistently show the rise and fall of velocity when tuning.
ive been using it for probably close to a year or so
