Has anyone cast and shot these WC yet?

I tried them at 950 fps and they were not happy.... However, used at typical wadcutter velocities of under 700 fps you could have a totally different result.... I simply don't know....

Was that out a choked barrel Bob? I was plan on shooting them bout 800. Guess I can try under 700.

Yes, choked, and actually I guess it was probably closer to 1000 fps, as the gun was tuned for Kings at 960.... Best to try them at whatever you want to shoot them at, then change it if necessary, IMO....

Yum flavor of the morning wadcutters. Decided last night I'd use up my recycled pellets lead into wadcutters.

Wow!! Talk about dislike lol 4 shot group out my GM barreled p15 @820 fps. Guess I'll drag my talon out see what it does. Got a couple barrels to try. I know ya only see three the fourth didn't hit the cardboard lol. It went right.

Dang that was painful neither barrel in the talon printed on cardboard at 15yards. Both barrels are choked. So anyone with a .25 unchoked barrel want to give any of these a try? Pm me.

I never got the WC 250 mold but the 26 grain pellets I cast from the 250-27-RF mold are killer in the unchoked barrel on my DAR25 and they do shoot about like the JSB25.39 out of the Mrod with a GM barrel.

I figure they probably shoot out a unchoked barrel ok. But I'm not going to buy another gun or barrel just the shoot these dang things lol. Let me know if ya want to give them a try I saved back a little bag of them. The rest are back In the pot.

Somebody needs to try these under 700 fps, which is what wadcutters are designed for....

I could only get my Talon down to 770 with the condor valve. I can probably dig out my Talon valve and the co2 adaptor an rig up a paintball reg. Still only have choked barrel to shoot out of.

miksatx · « **Reply #11 on:** August 02, 2019, 01:51:06 PM »

I give up I got the speed down to 620. I just couldn't get them on paper. Even with the lowest scope rings I have. Couldn't get them out of the dirt.and that was at 7yards. To hot hot hot.

You can pretty much say your Talon doesn't like them, for sure....

I have a .25 mrod on its way to me I need to get some parts for it to shot it but Id at least shoot some to see what it does.

Ok still big disappointment. Dug out the old p15 barrel cause it's not choked. Mounted it and here's the results managed to back off the p15 took one shot through the paintball chrony 704fps. Believe it or not this is a 8 shot group lol.

Insanity · « **Reply #16 on:** August 03, 2019, 01:12:24 PM »

Still grouping like a shotgun.

slow is the way to go. But I'm inclined to think that they would performance better at velocities even lower than 700 fps. I'm thinking 500 fps might be a good place to start and work upwards from there.

Take two screwdrivers and pry th etop hat out of the talon. Place rubber washers under it, one at a time to lower the velocity. It is the poor mans regulator of AF guns.

Put top hat back in and with your fingers push in as far as you can.

Now, push the breach forward but not far enough to cock it. Let it go under spring pressure. Lightly first time. Heaver pressure each time after.
After apx. four goes, cock and shoot. The top hat is now seated. Shoot and have fun.
