WEBLEY VMX AIR RIFLES

[avator]

I also had to cut out the cocking slot in the VMX stock so the Striker linkage would function. The linkage on the VMX was a two part and the Striker linkage was one.

  I was lucky. My Striker stock fit perfectly. Sure made it a much better looking rifle.

Steve that looks great. You know how I like wood stocks. I have two Edge rifles ( .177 & .22) absolutely love the way a Striker stock feels and looks.

Had them on both my Edge Vortex .22 and Webley Spector .177 although the one on the Spector was just a bit modified. So far, their new owners have no complaints. The Striker stock I refinished I also now have back. Guy that bought it liked it but no pellets local bothered him so I kept my word and bought the rifle back.

  I live in a rural area & the only pellets locally, are Daisy in .177 & 22. So, it doesn’t bother me a bit to order pellets.
  Years ago, I sold a nice Silver Streak to a single woman who was homesteading on an island off Washington. About once per year or so, she asks me to mail pellets to her. She doesn’t worry about finding local pellets either.

Hi fellow VMX owners!

I do love my VMX .22 it’s a UK version as I’m in Scotland and I’ve modified it quite a bit now.
Things a tack driver nowadays!

Good to see there’s a following here, if anyone’s got a .20 barrel going spare I might be interested haha!

[19Sheridan57]

  Thanks for your reply from Scotland. Have you ever tested your VMX with a chronograph ? I  would like to see the results.

There's a small following, unfortunately they're no longer available here in the US. The few retailers that did sell them had a fire sale a couple years back, sold their remaining stock of rifles dirt cheap and how I got all 3 of my VMX's and the 4 Tomahawks you see in my sig.

I have chrono’d many a time, at the moment I’ve set it to 582 fps average over 10 shots with h+n ftt 14.7 grain.
The standard deviation is around 3 fps at the moment, max deviation was 9 fps so pretty decent after fettling.

The first time I crammed the titan Xs spring in the action it was a bit hot for over here so had to take 2 coils off the end and re finish..

Mine is original & is a .20 cal. Using 14.3 g pellets, it clocks at 720 FPS. I use it to keep coyotes out of the pasture.

[Wargruf]

16.5 ft lbs with a .20 caliber, must fly pretty flat with that power.
My .22 drops an extra 21 inches at 100 yards but for shorter range shooting it’s pretty spot on.

According to ChairGun your .20 and my .22 retain close to the same velocity, energy levels and time taken out to 100 yards...But the .20 hits 2 ft lbs harder in the end and flys flatter.

Must be a good hunting caliber

Dead coyotes don’t like it.

Are theses the guns originally marketed as the Webley Value Max?

[19Sheridan57]

Yes, Valuemax = VMX .
They were offered in .177 , .20 , & .22.
I love Sheridan Streaks, which are .20 , so I have plenty of ammo & wanted a VMX in that cal. 
   I do use JSB Heavy pellets, 15.89g , for the coyotes. If I remember correctly, they shoot at about 675 FPS & hit hard !
