Just an update from my side.

Bought myself a Chrony yesterday. Oooooh and life is good. Without thinking I plinked all my H&N's out and was left with an array of JSB's which I still had on the shelf. I did not bother with the lighter models and jumped straight to the 18.13gr's, believe it's the Jumbo Exact Heavy.

With 4 shims on the hammer spring and the reg turned down a fair amount it's averaging 884 fps, with a 9 fps spread.

Zero'd at 20m, and took her out to 50m. Was shooting a ragged hole grouping, 5 rounds and then for some odd reason it jumped about quarter of an inch to the left and then grouped another 5 shots into one another. I think it was the wind which might have bugged it a bit as there was a steady breeze.

You don't need to touch the Philip screw. Once you have the hammer spring block out. There is a screw that holds the lever arm to the top. Undo that one through the stock screw hole from underneath, then pull the screw down...there is another screw that holds the lever block on the side. Undo that one and the hammer should fall free.

Yes it is a very light hammer, you can add a short rod in there and at the same time increase hammer tension that way. It is almost In a free flight mode if you can anchor the spring to the spring block. I think that's one way to do it

Thanks. I pulled that set screw with pin, but couldn't get it all the way out. So I didn't go any farther. Will give it a go next time. Really having fun tinkering with this gun. Made up a stack of baffels and installed the stripper. Noticeable change in tone. Right on par with my Daystate Huntsman.

I just bought a wood stock Liberty from AT, it's a .22 that was sent back for a warranty return. $107.50 . . . . this should be a journey in it'self because I've been reading through all the threads (not seriously yet) since the guns have come out and there's definitely gobs of info already in this forum about these guns. I just watched Bankers video shooting at a hundred yards with the JSB18.3's, I must say that I was impressed. If I remember correctly AT ships stuff pretty prompt from what I remember.

Very easy to work on Wayne. How did you come across that one? Wouldn't mind picking one up for parts. Took exactly a week for mine to arrive. Ordered on a Tuesday.

Wayne You lucked out with the wooden stock and by the time I called in for one they only had a few synthetic ones left which I ended up getting. I hope that we don't end up with ones that have not been mutilated. Did you order a magazine or will they come in with one? I forgot to ask.

Wayne52 · « **Reply #1386 on:** March 15, 2019, 08:27:02 PM »

Bob when I talked with the gal about it on the phone she said some did have mags but some don't

It's such a great deal I couldn't turn it down after reading all these months about these neat rifles. I hope I get a mag but if not it's no big deal, I pretty much bought it for a project, I'll be tearing it down completely when it gets here to go over it with a fine tooth comb.

Wayne
The Gauntlet mags are a "perfect" fit. About $12 bucks. Congrats, I bet you get a fully functional gun with a minor issue. Good luck & keep us posted on the progress.

I picked up another plastic and a wood one for r&d as I've been using my shooter to develop parts. Pictured is a prototype plenum we cnc'ed up, 7068 aluminum, (not 7075). If the results are as I anticipate, l likely be offering them (among other parts) in a within stock configuration for those interested in extended shot counts and or increased power over the dismally small factory part. For my personal one I was going for the largest reasonable one as I don't mind stock butchering. When done testing, I'll remove the guage. I also made a press fit/epoxied titanium replacement for the power adjuster, NO issues with the factory one coming apart.

Billy, make sure to put me ontop of the list once you get some 7075-t6 round stocks in.

Got a piece in a couple days ago, trying to find time to get to it, "dang" making a living getting in the way.

I’m down for one😎

Wayne52 · « **Reply #1392 on:** March 16, 2019, 07:39:35 AM »

Ken I wasn't aware that you bought the Victory. From what I've been reading these guns are a really decent fit and finish also. I'm pretty spoiled with my tried and true Airmax Dominator, it's my go to hunting rifle and has been for quite some time now. I'm curious as to what the twist rate is on the .22's and if they're a choked barrel or not. I'm thinking that the pellets that I've been casting will probably work great in these guns.

Yes but in 177 synthetic I’m overseas and will be home April 8 so I haven’t even held the gun yet😎

Have a safe trip back and enjoy your new toy.

FWIW: I measured 18.5" - 19":1, but it was my first time measuring it. I haven't seen any others posting it to compare.

No choke

Add me to the list as well please!!! Will most likely order a few parts to justify shipping to SA. PS. Just don't call it gun parts on the waybill.

Wayne52 · « **Reply #1398 on:** March 16, 2019, 10:12:35 AM »

John thanks a lot for that info !!! That's pretty much comparable to my Airmax Dominator which is 1 in 20" twist, it seems that a lot of the Chinese airguns use the slower twist rate like that which is just great for shooting most all pellets and not really requiring a choked barrel either for good accuracy. It looks like I won't be getting the M10 on ebay after all because of purchasing this gun because even though it's a gun I've wanted for a long time I don't really need one. Ebay has them for $299 shipped right now which is one heck of a deal for an M10.

Hawkeye51 · « **Reply #1399 on:** March 16, 2019, 10:46:30 AM »

Billy,
I'm in for a wood version plenum. Will help with any measurements or R&D that I can. Looks a lot better since you angled the edge. Snuck in a wood parts gun also, going to play with the stock if it's in one peice. He, he.
