Hello GTA Just a question on these Rugers. Is the Magnum just as close to the RWS350 as the Airhawk is to the RWS 34 ? I have tuned the Airhawks with a RWS 34 parts. I assume the Magnum is the same deal just wanted to make sure first.
Thanks

Pretty much. Some external differences near as I can tell, but not much. I will say, the stock spring on the Magnum seems to wear out fairly quickly, maybe at about 2500 shots. I'd get a Vortek spring and seal and have fun with it.

Cool Thanks Paul. Just ordered one from PA. I also got a spring and seal from JM on its way. Going to shoot it a bit and then tune it. Looks like we may be getting up to 24 inches of snow so atleast I will have something new to play with.

Well got a little time with the RAM. First thought was this rifle is well worth the $160. Fit and finish is nice. Shot cycle really surprised me. Not much twang or buzz. Very hard hitting. Going to do a little chrony work after I get a few more down the pipe. I will then give it a good lube tune with JM spring and Tesla seal. After a little shooting back to the chrony.
