Crosman 362 - First 5 shots out of box Chrono Test

[benji397]

Straight outta the box. No cleaning, no prep.
8 pumps is max according to owner's manual and that's what this represents. I must say pumping this is much easier than pumping the Benjamin 392 eight times.

[kerplunk]

How many pumps?

[35 shooter]

That certainly is very close to the 700 FPS. that has been talked about.
Hot little pumper right out of the box... cleaned up and broken in, it may pick up a little more.

Nice !

[brewbear]

How many pumps?

The man did say 8 pumps

[brewbear]

Very nice! Enjoy it in good health.

[benji397]

I edited the post to say 8 pumps shortly after posting. Kerplunk probably didn't see that.

Thanks for the data! I am excited to get my 362 tomorrow. 

If it's not too much work, do you think you could get some numbers with different #'s of pumps? I'm curious how many it takes to get to about 600 fps.

Thank you for that, those are some impressive numbers for strait out of the box air gun. I will have to pick one up as soon as I get over the Crosman 150 and 600 mania.

[erdnuss]

Thanks so much!  That is really nice, just 5 reportedly easy pumps to get over 10 ft lbs.

[Rick67]

Very nice numbers

Thanks for posting Mark.

Is the breech plastic? Where did you buy it? I'm having trouble finding a lot of info on the 362.

Thanks

Plastic, yes.

It seems Midway snagged a few from Crosman.

Did a quick test with H&N Baracuda 15.89 ammo. I didn't input the B.C. and weight so it didn't compute the energy but just plug it in to a ballistics program if you want. Two feet from chrono, 8 pumps, still no cleaning or oiling.

Yes breech is plastic and Bought from Midway.

These are very impressive numbers, and the gains per pump are excellent. I like the fact that at 4 easy pumps... just under 600 FPS. that is incredible versus my modified 1322 and this 362 requires no mods to achieve these.  My concern is the Crosman barrel and its accuracy. If this gun has accuracy that matches its obvious power... I may have to go for one. I really wish Crosman would stop putting plastic breeches on these guns, but it is what it is and easy enough to switch out. It is going to come down to accuracy for me. Looking forward to seeing some groups and thank you for sharing what you are learning.

Midway seems to have received 6 of them and they disappeared quickly. There are none in stock anywhere else that I can find.

[Rick67]

Give Crosman a call.

They should know where the rest are 

Probably some were sent out of the US.
