My 1965 Sheridan RE-build UPDATE

[OleTomCat]

LOL. Yes you do!!

Straight Shooters was only one I found had them in stock.

32.4g IIRC.

Cw

Found the 25gr: http://www.straightshooters.com/Eun-Jin-.20-Pellets-RN.html

Didn't see anything larger...

I just went and weighed some... 22.5g is what I come up with!    I really thought that they where heavier than that!!

CW

What kind of fps/fpe are you getting with them out of the roided Dan?

[cwlongshot]

For the life of me and in spite of the suggestions my crony will not work inside.... 

I haven't had a chance to shoot it, I mean really shoot it, yet. 
I will soon! Its itching at me too!

[cnjl3]

So now I have to wait 8 - 10 weeks - sent in my Sheridan Silver Steak for a steroid job plus a rear peep. Can't wait to get it back. I guess i'll find out for myself later on how fast & how hard it hits.

[Bryan Heimann]

Wow. Great job on those sheridans!

[badredbird]

you will love when that streak comes back   , mine came back  hard hittin flat shooting

[cwlongshot]

I hope to shoot mine some next week. But the little I have shot it into the steel trap I can tell you, much like my 25 Walther I don't like to do it! It really smacks the back stop HARD!!!

I wonder why the first two pellet columns have less fps at 14 pumps vs 5 pumps
and then the last two pellet column show a gain of fps but not a lot.
Maybe the figures won't shine unless you test "heavy" pellets.
Note to myself " I need to order some Eun Jin today so I can make sure to have some on hand when I get my SilverStreak back from Mac1"

The first three columns were all at Five pumps for ten shots

The last one was the only one I did the stacking pumps to get an idea of how much speed and power each pump would add...

[cnjl3]

Ahh - now it makes sense. More important is how is the accuracy. Increasing the velocity shouldnt change your group size, correct?

[OleTomCat]

Each of the three shot sub 1" groups at 10 yards with the stock sights, the pellets did climb some as the pumps and fps went up....

[Bryan Heimann]

Waiting patiently to see results from those .20 cal eunjins!

Enjoyed reading the posts & seeing the pix. Great job.
