AV Avenger

[Ed24]

Have a .22 avenger.  Been doing some slug testing. NSA stuff, JSB knock outs and a few H&N slugs. I have the reg about 2500 and 5 turns on the hammer and shooting the NSA 24.8gr .218 at 855fps.  So far the NSA 24.8gr .218, JSB jumbo monster redesigned 25.39 and H&N slugs 21gr .217 are shooting the best. Testing at 45yards. I also just finished a barrel band, had a ton of flex and was having POI issues. Great gun so far!!!

there is a baffle system you can install, a member here posted about them
advertising on ebay..... check the earliers posts in the AV avenger and other avenger threads.

Found the Ebay Seller - looks like they're 3D-printing both a internal baffle system and a external moderator. https://www.ebay.com/usr/12ab34cd

with my .22, its going to be hard to beat the JSB RDJM...25.39gr @ 50yrd !!
ive tried quite a few slugs i use in my impact (.218) and none compare yet...
i just ordered the .217 sampler from nick so maybe i'll get lucky

Ironman, how much difference does the Tanto make. I don't find my .25 to be loud, say compared to my Sentry which produces a good crack. And congrats on finding and fixing your gun, that is a good feeling.

the tanto makes a big difference, but I  want haji's air stripper and baffles too so you get the full benefit of the shroud plis yhe barrel is captured at the end instead of farther back, just like the nova freedom's the barrel support  blocks the shroud anf and limits the volume that is avalible,  last time I checked Haji  is out of stock for the .25 ,so I'm waiting.

Gendoc, would like to know what you come up with on the .217 pack. I tried a few .217 but mine so far is better with the .218 though much harder to load. Very tight fit!

will do !!
i tried about 6 top quality slugs in .218, they were very fps consistant and close to the RD's...but not what i was wanting in a slug POI...

Can anybody chime in on their Avenger compared to high end stuff (2k +) As far as accuracy 50 &100 yards ?

Can anybody chime in on their Avenger compared to high end stuff (2k +)

i can.... pellet wise, its just as fun and nearly as accurate as my impact mk2/pp in .22(>2k)
my kalibur cricket in .22...and my Taipan compact. (<2k)
its got a ways to go before competeing with the cricket, taipan and career-II (<1k) in accuracy

I am interested in the hammer adjustment of the Sentry,
so far I have seen very little info on this part of the Sentry,
It may be possible with a good machined spring base, (OEM factory one is a joke),
and a good use able spring, and maybe a SSG and Reg involved, the Sentry's could sing a great song.

I am going to try the flat springs/lite weight hammers to see the results,
made ALL the difference in my QB/Gauntlet etc.

barrel work is needed on the sentry, thats what Rocker1 worked on with mine and it became ruthless !!! but, not as consistant as the avenger out of the box.
i think its barrel quality to start off with 

[gendoc]

you get a sentry to do this @ 50yrds...
1st shot is the known regulator creep the avengers have sitting with pressure on the reg, then 9 following shots.

JSB .22 =redesigned 25.39 monsters @ 879fps avg

Nice shootin Doc, headed out tomorrow to try some 50, 100 and maybe 150 with the AV and some heavy JSB lead. NSAs aren’t here yet.
Even if the gun is that good pretty sure I’m not yet.

[Bob Pratl]

The Avenger is definitely a one ragged hole gun  with little effort out of the box with shooting most anything at 40 yards. I have not tried any slugs  until I polish and slug the barrel.
An adjustable cheek plate is a must for me as well as some trigger improvements with less creep and side play. Than again this a $299.00 air gun which offers a super bang for the buck.
I love the adjustability.

Doc
Great shooting for a 1 eyed Fat Man.........................     Jerkin on your chain a wee bit.........LOL

What size is that target dot 3/4 or 1"?

Thanks,
Don
