    Hello,
    Thank you for the informative review of this high quality budget p.c.p. I love watching the “golden age” of air guns impact so many manufacturers; influencing most to step up their game. The 5 year warranty is huge, solidifying this product’s build quality and reliability. I would recommend this to any prepper. Quite the offering for such a price. I’m impressed.

      It is not identical, internally, to Snowpeak product. I have that from the source. Stoeger requested some modifications from Snowpeak. Nevertheless, it’s an outstanding product and it’s priced hello level to draw people into the sport. And the five year warranty can’t be beat.

    Thanks for the thorough review. This gun is so new it's been hard to find feedback on. Any chance you could try to tune it for heavy slugs and max FPE? Looking hard at the .25 Scout for racoons and coyotes, hoping they come underrated with more power if you need it.

    • @airshootist
      @airshootist  7 місяців тому

      I think out of the .22 the max is gonna be around 40fpe. Its advertised at about 36.5. I'm getting like 37-38fpe and it's shooting very well so I'm not going to mess with it. It's good as-is.

      @@airshootist You think it's a crazy question on my part to ask if it's legal? www.atf.gov/firearms/qa/are-paintball-and-airgun-sound-suppressers-considered-nfa-weapons "Are paintball and airgun sound suppressers considered NFA weapons?
      The terms “firearm silencer” and “firearm muffler” mean any device for silencing, muffling, or diminishing the report of a portable firearm, including any combination of parts, designed or redesigned, and intended for use in assembling or fabricating a firearm silencer or firearm muffler, and any part intended only for use in such assembly or fabrication.
      Numerous paintball and airgun silencers tested by ATF’s Firearms Technology Branch have been determined to be firearm silencers by nature of their design and function. Because silencers are NFA weapons, an individual wishing to manufacture or transfer such a silencer must receive prior approval from ATF and pay the required tax.

    @donwilson350 7 місяців тому +1

    I wonder why for this gun to be regulated. Why isn't shooting so slow? I mean, the 25 grain pellets would probably be about the weight you would want to shoot out of a 25 caliber rifle and it's too slow Should be in the high eight hundreds

    • @airshootist
      @airshootist  7 місяців тому +2

      You can shoot them like 900fps out of this thing, far exceeding its advertised power. But as you saw here, mine was MOA at 50 yards at only 800fps, so why change it?

  • @filoIII
    @filoIII 2 місяці тому

    IDK why you shot those slugs @ 50. They were no good @ 25. They're not gonna get better. I'd rather you tuned down the speed a bit and shot the 18 grain @ 25, and see how they shot, and if good, out to 50.

    • @airshootist
      @airshootist  2 місяці тому

      Because it is a review. The gun was out of the box with zero adjustments. Hitting 5/10 on the 4" plate at 150 was pretty impressive even though they didn't group great. This is definitely a pellet gun.
