i'm seriously impressed phil.super job. that it's super accurate makes it even better. i'm an accuracy nut myself. most guys shooting field target use .177. you can get an LW .177 from crosman by ordering the challenger barrel..about $85. a nice morgan adjustable buttplate might be nice. raw makes and aluminum buttplate the is highly adjustable, but more costly than the morgans. wow, thanks alot for sharing phil.
That,s quite impressive Phil. As you said in the video, it looks factory made. I hope that between your video and mine, that some company will finally get serious about SSP full power guns, and produce one. I hope you will do a video of the fully assembled and scoped gun.I do have one question. How many rounds have you put through it ?
airguns freedom700 SSP Hey, Joe. I've put a couple of tins of pellets through it. Can't help myself in shooting it - even if it is just the action in a rest. Test, test, test. I do envy your design. In fact, favor it over mine. There's a mechanical elegance to yours unseen in the industry. Mine is more a copy of a gun I can't justify spending the money on! Rather use those funds to increase shop gear and goodies, ergo make stuff. Been waiting for that Paradigm SSP airgun to launch... Looks like it will never happen, despite the rumor of a Chinese company taking it in. I do suspect that our valving and trigger designs share similarities. Just a hunch.
kevin peske The valve volume is adjustable. Set it up to where max stroke produces no more than 615fps. Though, the piston can draw air at any point for various power levels. Could have left the valve volume more reduced, but stroke 1/2 or 3/4 stroke to achieve the lower velocity.
Heck of a job Phil, well done!
