- Took the .338 AirPua out for a quick shooting session. After verifying 110 yards P.O.I., I decided to group the gun at that range also. Then, I blast a few reactive target at 300 and 342 yards. Then, I decide to group the gun at my steel rabbit target while it was at 342 yards!
Ced, I've been there watching you put this together and it is more than one could ever ask for. Incredible. People need to give you more credit for your contributions to our sport. You are truly the man. I can't wait for your next out of the norm build.
Hey Joe, you know i really appreciate ya! You've helped me alot. And as far as credit goes, i've come to accept life, as, life is. I will make my wife. Slowly, but i WILL make it. See ya on the next build brotha!
This rifle is nothing less than phenomenal. Happy to have been able to pull the trigger on this beast. In fact, that’s what started my Texan craze. Keep the amazing videos coming.
H1, Brotha, i appreciate the comment and you know you have many more PULLS on that trigger to go. And, hopefully, i get to shoot that 457 LSS again of yours. That baby is accurate as heck. AS A MATTER OF FACT, A LONG RANGE VIDEO of the 2 IS OVERDUE (HINT, HINT)!
You are really pushing the boundaries of what airguns can do. Thank you for sharing
Oh, i'm just starting. We've got many more MILES to go. Ooops, I meant "YARDS".......lol
Very nice to see all the work you have accomplished with that rifle. It truly is a one of a kind NUAH beast. Happy Holidays my friend!
Same to you my friend. I appreciate it. Happy Holidays to you and yours also
Just incredible shooting !!!!!! Love your videos .... Wow !!!
What's up Brotha?! Love your stuff too 1721. You too are an amazing shooter brotha. And, your creative too
Dang, that is some seriously impressive shooting and an amazing rifle...WOW!! 😮
I would call that .338 "truckin".
OMG, AGB_O, its so good to see you here buddy. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Yes sir, believe it or not, she is still getting dialed in........ Also, glad you here because, it reminds me that I need to go catch up on your videos........lol
Gr8 display of ballistic findings.....or creation. I appreciate your work in this arena.
Absolutely incredible work Ced. You are a beast and the man.
Amazing demonstration and impressive equipment development man.
Thank you Haji. Stay tuned for more from this rig. Its coming!
I know you said its mainly for target not for hunting but you know many of us are curious as to what the FPE is at that range. Deadly im sure because those jugs and cans exploded. That was jaw dropping eye popping. Gotta watch again
245 FPE left at 300 yards!
Wow! Amazing groups from any gun, let alone an airgun shooting a cast projectile! I'm going to have to back up and look at the other videos to see more on this rifle and your cast. Congrats!
Dino, thanks for watching. Speaking of casting, I need to make another video on casting.
Awesome shooting Man!
Thanks for bringing us along!
Excellent shooting brother... that Texan is a laser....awesome video brother on demonstration of accuracy and power!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Will, thanks for the 5-star rating....lol. LOVE IT! Stay tuned for more
It's an AIRGUN.
I'm speechless.
Great Shootin,Ced!
Mike
Thanks ML. Lol, yes sir, its only a lil ole BB GUN......lol. Yeah, High Pressure Air can do a lot nowadays. Airguns have come very far. Scary to think what they will be doing in 50 years
Its so funny how you mention that long range is just inevitable. I told someone the same thing a while ago with my other hobby flying drones fpv. You start out small and close and the better you get the further you try to go. Now I can already feel myself wanting to get some distance out of my air rifles..lol Thanks for the great videos, and wow what a killer group on that rabbit.
This channel should have way more subs,, great person,,great guns ,, great fun,,
Yeah Kevin, thank God i have a real job that pays me. You guys are my end of the day/week BONUS! I make these videos for you guys to enjoy and to learn things from and nothing more. So in saying that, i appreciate each and every one of you who take the time to watch what I put out! THANKS A MILLION TIMES K.A.
@@Tofazfou mr t..let's take a deer at that distance..340 yard..
@@hanangrustiono7282 TOO FUNNY you mentioned that. How about a GOAT? Coming up at the end of the month ;) And yes, it will be on video.
@@Tofazfou yes yes yes..i like a deer..buck or doe is no matter but a goat is ok..i am waiting..would be awesome..mr T👍
@@hanangrustiono7282 Stay tuned!
You’re one laid back front of the pack dude!
Good stuff! Big thumbs up
Thank you
1.6 inch at 342yards think I might just sell all my guns and take up knitting. But on the other hand might just to build one and try to better your group.
Seriously excellent shooting Cedric. Thanks for the inspiration to try to beat your group.
That's just amazing. Great shooting! Very inspirational.
AVS, oh man, thanks for watching and commenting. Enjoying your vids and your slug shooting. VERY COOL! You know us "SLUG" guys gotta stick together....lol
When I grow up I'm going to shoot long distance like you. Looking forward to your next video where you shoot 401 yards. I know you can do it.
Hi. Good morning, that's a perfect shooting I didn't know that an air rifle can be so good. Great video.
Dangerous with that bad boy!!! WOW!!! IM IMPRESSED!!!! THAT RIFLE IS A TRUE BADASS.... THAT ALSO WAS SOME DANG GOOD SHOOTING. Hats off to your build it looks great and we know how it shoots. By the way you got good taste in beer also my brother. From New Mexico. Shoot straight and stay blessed👍🇺🇸🇺🇸✌
lol, good eye. Love Modelo. Those tall cans make great long range targets. You know when you hit em.....
As usual, I enjoyed your vid. Some amazing shooting there. Would love to know more about the guns valve and barrel
Very impressive build. Amazing shooting.... E.L.R I like that... thank you for sharing.cant wait to see more of the E L R videos 👋👍👍
Thanks Mike.
Always amazing to watch you shoot!
That is sooo sweet. The best I've done so far, with my Hatsan 87QE (springer) .22 is a milk jug at 150yds. After getting the aim point hit it 8/10 though, and that was with it's second iteration, UTG droop compensating mount and a Discovery 6-24x44mmAO scope. It's now on #4, with a discounted Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-14x44SF/FFT scope. Hoping to push for 200, with diabolo pellets (Air Arms 16gr).
Oh, it can be done. Hell, im rooting for ya. Lots of ways to get range without boosting fps. A scope with plenty of dots or hashmarks gives you options and also, lowering the scopes magnification helps with extending range also. HAVE FUN BUDDY
I have been watching your vids since the beginning and this is truly one of the best. Mad props my man!
Mr Keith sir, I REALLY APPRECIATE YOU! Since the beginning?!!!!! WOW! Love it! THANK YOU! that really inspires me to keep taking it up a notch
Big thumbs up 👍👍awesome shooting and gun
that 338 barrel conversion is dope . thing shoots pretty good !
Where are you .. in the desert I’m sure… I just got my first FX ..maverick..25. I enjoy your approach to advance.air guns. I’m caught up also ..been an avid hunter for over 30 yrs……I’ll be watching….
Thank you howard. yep, in the High Desert of SoCal where I can shoot long range
@@Tofazfou I thought so …..I lived in Yucca valley about 22 yrs ago ..and my sister is still there ..out old woman springs rd… they have a boarding kennel…in some ways I miss the desert.. since living there I went to Oregon.them Montana and now Kentucky… I do get around some. Thanks for wha u post …who knows we’ll meet someday…going to phoenix in October to shoot ….
Thats an insanely accurate airgun. I got my 50 texan and made a 450 grain spitzer mold and have a moav valve with a donny fl suppressor . Waiting for my arken sh4 gen 2 scope. Cant wait to see what it can do with that new round .
I really enjoyed this presentation. Impressed with his mods and moreso his results....not too wordy either. GODSPEED
that was good shooting with an air rifle, most cant do that with a powder burner, my hats off to you sir
That is totally AMAZING My Brother!!!
Thanks EXT457
That is just incredible shooting! Congratulations Sir! Incredible gun too...I can only envy you as here in Spain the legal maximum for airguns is 24 joules ...better than the UK I suppose. I have a couple that make 40 joules, but your guns are incredible. I saw your pistol shooting too .....wow! Love your videos, as they are honest, precise and straightforward.....and you're so humble with your work and talent. That's the sign of true greatness right there! Keep safe....keep shooting'!! I'll keep watching! Un abrazo desde España!!! :-)
Man you are one heck of a shooter...
Thanks
It's not about how big the rabbit is but how small the groups were. Crazy, that kind of grain weight even making it that far.
Congratulations on your sweet build! (Your videos are sweet as well!)
EBR FAN, thanks for that comment. Greatly appreciated
That a nice shoot, by the way would you give specification the AIR FORCE unit about the Barrel, Valve, Air presure, Hammer and Spring. Thanks
Hehe..pak joko penasaran yo..
Podo...😊
@@hanangrustiono7282 iya Mas, penasaran banget dengan Power dan akurasi AFC nya.
@@jokopurnomo97 ky nya start dr 4500an..trs kl ga salah sy perhatikan itu pake booster/regul dr airtank ke snpn..jd tiap shot nya dia ttp start dr 4500 trs..utk jg kestabilan presure nya..
Semua vidio dia gitu..
@@hanangrustiono7282 masalah nya apakah Part nya ada masuk di Indonesia gak ya? Saya diberikan Link nya untuk Beli di Depot Air Gun. Tapi mesti bayar pakai Kredit Card. Trus saat ini biaya masuk untuk Barang dari luar untuk harga di atas 7.dolar sdh gila gilaan
Thats some great shooting! Great build also, man.
Hey BA. Good to see you here. I was just watching that video of when you met up with Eric Henderson for the 1st time. Awesome stuff and thanks for commenting
Tofazfou haha yeah man. Great friend of mine now. Really appreciate you watching my videos also, man. Thanks. I always watch your stuff, man. Your name is here in Belize!
AMAZING ALL AROUND!!! Great video!!!
That was totally awesome T.
Thanks C. Appreciate the comment
Santa, please give me one o these for Christmas... I've been good this year... lol... nice real nice, you the man.. man !

Impressive group, 340 yards
Thanks TB
Holey cow is right on !!! Great shout
Fricking awesome shots! Wow
Fricking THANK YOU......lol
Yeah buddy you got urself a banger. Cant walt to see more ELR from that military grade air rifle lol
LMAO, Military grade huh? FUNNY AS HELL....lol! Thanks brotha
I don't subscribe for any channels but when I do that mean it's fun to watch, good shooting man.
By the way we got the same bug!
Bug named Texan!
Dude that’s some serious shooting. That rabbit is sooooo freaking dead😂💪💯
If you don't mind me asking. What barrel manufacturer did you use! And amazing shooting, by the way! Thank you for sharing. I really like your 17 hm air!
Bartlein. And thank you
Hi i been watching your videos for a while now and just wanted to say i think your videos are very informative very well detailed and sooooo much fun you really are a talented gun builder and a wicked shot to boot i wish we had the law on our side over hear so sadly we cant do the same but until then ill keep watching you do your thing pal with the law set at sub 12fpe we can still take small pests out to 70/75 yards if you are a competent enough shooter but with something like that just WOW once again your so entertaining keep the videos coming and keep building pal 😎✌. All the way from the uk peace.
Nothing more to say..1" thick barrel, a texan and mad dog stock..solid gun a lot of tuning, sending lead long range..I will start my builds..thanks the path has been shown.
Thanks Fernando. Good luck and keep us posted
Nice shooting brother keep em coming..
Thanks
Hats Off boss.... outstanding job!
As always, Best of the best!
WOW! Thanks you
Man I love what you did to your gun especially the barrel who did the barrel work for you or did you do that yourself? Plus the wood or synthetic stock that you put under your texan and the but pad where can I get that stuff online,gun store, or someplace else? I want mine hydro dipped with viper snake skin 😀
Incredible accuracy, high precision build. Are you casting these slugs? I bet the bc is over 400. I'm thrilled when my hatsan .25 does 3/4" @ 75 yds, or my maximus does 1/4" @ 25. Thanks for the inspiration, I watched your channel before I bought my first pcp years ago. Daydreaming about an aea challenger 357 next.
Outstanding
Thanks a million Kevin
Now that's how you do it!
Mojave! I recognize it easily. Worked for Virgin galactic for 5 months at the airport. With the wind you get around there that makes it even more amazing!
Thanks for the props. Gotta love Mojave.
That’s insane! Nice rifle and excellent shooting!
Thoroughly enjoyed the vid. Now I want one too.
Really impressive rifle and fine shooting to boot. Are you calling your own mirage?
( it looks like it's running pretty good) thanks for a great segment!...subbed.
Hi tofazffou, great video although I would never purchase an airforce rifle until they come out with repeaters with magazines, follow up shots are important at long ranges when hunting
That thing is ridiculous yes sir 💪
You need to be competing in the extreme bench rest competition;-)
no ebr BUT, i am going to RMAC this year
Great shooting! Whose barrel blank did you use for this project?
Awesome shooting!
Thank you very much!
I just bought a LSS 457 Texan CF . Love it so far. I would like to ask what scope you are using? Thanks
Oh man, the Texan LSS is the cats meow. Its really good and accurate. I have the Athlon Argos BTR 8x34x56
The Box is too damned crowded as is anyway. ;
Whats up Mike? Good to see ya buddy!
You know. Being retired an all/ Nothing to do! Yeah right!
Testing different slugs every day. Working on AG's, fitting barrels, and dread of dread, shooting every day for hours on end.
I tell ya, it's ruff
But then again, what is an old retired fart like me to do with his Time.
:
Did I mention I have the terrible task of tuning a Raptor Mini due in here Thursday? Oh the Humanity. Terrible I tell ya. Just god awful!
ToFaz,
Man! It's been a lil while since I have been active in the air gun hobby or kept up with you and Doug's adventures. As I had originally said a few years ago, ya seen 'em come and ya see them go.... Glad to see that you keepin the light on and moving forward. Looks like the Texan has turned out to be a winner platform from Airforce and you certainly have shown here that you can build upon it.
I took out my .257 the other day and certainly didnt seem as pleasant to load as the Texan is with its side cocking mechanism and the ease that you so effortlessly chamber those heavy 338 bullets!
Great work! How does the .338 ballistic coefficient compare to a .308, 7mm or .257???
Looks pretty amazing by the looks of it here!
So is the Talondor .257 retired now?
Also did everyone kinda migrate away from the Tag forums? I assume Doug is probably over at GTA?
I will have to get caught up with all the ol gang. I noticed Knifemaker is around and even saw a few posts from Roachcreek. Keep up the great videos, I hope you are monetizing and reaping some reward for all you are doing!!!!!!
Just found this comment. Sorry for being late to respond. But, great to see you hear. Well, the .338 ballistics Coefficients are pretty good compared to small calibers. One advantage it has over the smaller calibers is that it has more weight. Even if the BC's between the 338s and the other calibers where similar, the 338 still outweighs them and weight helps with travelling downrange in conjunction with BC. And yeah, a lot of people left the Tag Forum due to OVER POLITICKING
Love the videos bro😊
Great video, and I learned we both like the same brand of coffee...
lol..............NICE! Good eye sir! lol
that some power +shooting munnn, I'm bout ready to go big bore ..
Just impressed, wow. If only I could operate my .308 Texan like you. What pressure and tention settings are you using, top secret?
Awesome shooting!!
It's ok I guess if that's the best you can do...just kidding Ced I would be happy with 1.6" at 100 yds much less 342. Congrats on a great group and keep pushing them out there.
Ok, you got me! you had me going with that opening line. LOL! Thanks............I GUESS!!!? Lmbo
@@Tofazfou sorry brother I couldn't resist 😁. I have watched your channel for years but I think this is the first time I've commented which is long past due. Keep up the good work and showing what most of us wish we could do.
Love it my brother 👏💥
Thank you sir!
Under 1.75 at 340, GEEZ.. I'm just now shooting under 2" at 100.😞 That's some great shooting sir.👍
Thanks Ty. Keep practicing is the only advice i will give. Cause nothing else gets you there......................
Nice shooting!
Next video, even longer range!
at some point, yes.....lol. Thanks
Dang I believe that 338 may be as accurate as my Remington model 700 Custom in 7mm mag at 500yds. Dam that is impressive.
Phwew? As accurate as a custom 7mag? Thats a tall order. 7mm is a baaaaaaad round................
AirForce: The most convenient air gun! Sometime you don't even have to pull the trigger. Just disengage the safety, and it goes off!
NEVER EVER HAD THAT HAPPEN and I have 4 of them. Can't speak on what someone else has had happen.......... Once you've been in the business as long as I have, you see and find out some of the CRAZIEST things have been done to airguns. Thats why I NEVER BUY USED AIRGUNS
@@Tofazfou It's a commonly discussed issue on AirForce enthusiast blogs.
My AirForce airgun was purchased new, and I've had it happen several times.
The standard solution from the blogs is to remove the safety, which is a pain anyway because it engages automatically each time the gun is cocked.
That’s fine shooting with ANYTHING. What does it do to a real rabbit?
Have not shot one yet. Ummmmm, will find out shortly in 2020
Wow! I'm impressed! RMAC?
RMAC? YES..............
Really want to start pcping with the airpua, also wish you could have caught a slug in the water.
Outstanding.
Hey Tofazfou now that you have a new best friend the .338
How much for you leftovers the TD.257
Hey Jonus......lol! Yeah, the ole 257 is not for sale. She is a keeper. Heck, they all are....lol
Do any of your slug air rifle have a choked barrel?
GREAT QUESTION! No sir. My custom guns actually use powder burner barrels which are not choked. This barrel is the same for a .338 lapua magnum except the twist rate is different.
Good job man. Thanks
thank you
Great Gun how do I get one I’m like you I like the c Challenger long distance with air rifles
Excellent shooting….
Thanks Howard. It's and awesome airgun to shoot and you could shoot it all day
Nice shooting !
Great Video Nice Shootin
thanks
@Tofazfou Man that was amazing!!!
Awesom stuff!
Any idea what the FPE and FPS are at that range with those bullets.
Outstanding long range shooting my brother...You have that gun dialed in now.
WHAT'S UP FRANK?! Good to see ya man. Yes siiiiir, i've been working on some stuff and its all coming together now.
Hey bro by any chance do you do any break barrels oh you're not into it
I've started. Airgun depot is letting me slowly do reviews. I did the RWS 56TH already
@@Tofazfou why do you need approval from Air Depot to make a video of a break barrel ?
Great video , now that's reaching out there .
THanks VK. Good to see you here brotha
Nice test.
