I've got it throwing 300gr. XTPs at right around 1000fps.

Given today's precision equipment, that means the overall diameter of the cylinder can be more petite since the notch (a crack waiting to happen) is not in-line with the most highly stressed material in the gun.Eaton Rapids Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09102166969915526172noreply@blogger.com
