Regulated Condor 4500 PSI Overview, With FX Heavy Slug Liner, Titanium Plenum and Altaros Reg
I have an update on the Condor for you, finally putting it back together with a few small changes to the valve stem that will hopefully improve performance. Although when I went to gas it up my regulator started leaking again, so I have some work to do there.

Making videos is still a work in progress for me but I'm stiving to get you more content on the projects I'm working on. This day at the range didn't go quite as expected (I likely filed too much when porting the stem), but I did get 3 decent groups at 50 yards.

ThePelletShop.com / Airgun Channel contest. I decided to shoot some video of my most resent trip to the range to test out a few new mods to my Condor. I love pushing my airguns to the limits, then moding them and making new limits. If anyones interested in what I've done or am doing or even reviews product I'm using, let me know in the comments.

      @tonynooyen2423 The FX Heavy Slug Liner, it does pretty good for such a thin barrel. Plenty accurate for what I'm doing, but in an airforce frame, you'd likely have to employ various tuning methods for competition. Just because the harmonic nodes are very tight.

      @tonynooyen2423 No worries, I tried to use off the shelf items as much as possible, it comes down to the regulator. The reg attached to the tank, scope rings hold the reg to the airgun, DOT air fittings and HP nylon tubing to take the air to the valve chamber. I did have to make an adapter for the scope ring to reg since the rings are 34mm and the reg is closer to 32mm.

  • @leadslinger5130
    @leadslinger5130 2 роки тому

    I think at a certainpoint I think you will hit diminished returns on reg pressure. At the end of the day the barrel volume is fixed. Let's say a given velocity = X pressure at the mussel we could say that the velocity resulted from a barrel pressure of X (hypothetical number 800psi). It will always take the same amount of air to fill the barrel volume to a given pressure. What will change is the function over time or shot cycle. At some point efficiency will go down, I think there will be a happy place in the middle somewhere. I think lowwer pressure feals smother personally.

  • @leadslinger5130

    I have also found barrel tensioning makes a difference in harmonics. I played around with it on my jsar raptor and I also bought the fx barrel tuner and that thing is gold! I have it on my condor currently and am very impressed with the results. I can't speak for the impact mk3 but I make the Griffin slugs so I test a lot of slugs In different rifles. The mk2 handles the power well but it definitely feals different then pellets.

    So much money spent and waisted time on this stuff. The FX impact is officially an older design but when it came out was just about top notch with few flaws. Today FX has stepped up because they know all these things. They introduced the Maverick line to cut out all the extra seals and gadgets for tuning making it super simple for everyone. Sometimes taking things a little slower is better. Always proven someway. The wildcat mk3 is about the simplest way to go. My theory which I've been searching and shooting air rifles over 45 yrs is you have the smallest caliber and the biggest calibers to choose. Therefore instead of fooling with making your air rifles shoot way heavy projectiles and spending on moding and time, just reach up to the next bigger caliber is the easiest way! I've been hunting and doing pesting on 13 big farms for a lifetime living the air gunnars dream. Its always worked perfectly to choose the correct caliber for the need. If your having problems or spending too much time trying to perfect, try this. I know it works. You can always put aftermarket baffles in the air rifles helps a lot. And turn down the power a notch.Air rifles nowadays are more than enough power in itself and most could even say a Weapon!Ed da pro snippin backyard man💥💪😎

      For money I have maybe 40 dollars into the tensioner system, so as far as upgrades go I felt it was worth trying (even if only for the looks). Time is just another excuse to go shooting, which for me is always fun. As for caliber I ran into that with my AirForce Condor in .22 Cal, back in the day I couldn't find ammo heavy enough to be stable so I changed it out to .25, now Condor is back .22 Impact is .25 and Talon is .30. I do probably spend more time in the machine shop doing mods than shooting but I do enjoy both. 😉
