Title: Career III 300 power settings
Post by: Thumper5102 on May 24, 2015, 12:13:55 AM
I have a Career III 300, this thing is extremely accurate. at 50 yards I get groups of .25" with JSB 18.1gr pellets. It didn't seem to like the JSB Straton Monster 25.4gr, although it is pushing them out at 1040fps on high power. I turned down the power to see if I could get them to group, best I could do at 50y was about 1" for 5 shots.  Does anyone know the size of the air cylinders? is it 300cc? I bought this off a friend and he didn't have any information on it, he rarely shot it.

Hi Thumper,

300cc indeed. It`s a great gun ain`t it? Hard hitting, sturdy and noisy. I`ve got one too. It takes some getting used to to get some good groups. I`m shooting at a 100 meter range making use of a regulator, that makes it a little easier.

Here`s a link: http://fokkemol.weebly.com/korean-airguns.html (http://fokkemol.weebly.com/korean-airguns.html)
and some pics.

The size of the coin is 23.25 mm.

Groups are well, I'll have to post a picture of the groups I got out of mine on low power "green dot" at 50 and 60y. They were under 1/2" ctc. I haven't shot it out to 100y yet. Mine on high power with the 28gr EunJins gives me 62ft/lb. By the way, where did you get the regulator? I think I might want to get one or make one. I would love to make one with a regulator chamber like the one on my Kalibrgun Cricket. 300cc should be good enough. I rarely shoot mine on high power. I usually like it around the 28ft/lb mark. My best groups were at that energy level with the JSB Jumbo Heavy 18.1gr pellets.
