That being said, a flat-top piston in such a gun would reduce the number of pumps required to get to that output. _________________ ` I'd say "I care." But I'd be lying.

The Walther LGR is one example, and changed the game with its accuracy. Often the pneumatic match rifles state ctc accuracy as .010" but the 10 shot test targets look and measure like a single caliber opening.   Posted: Tue Mar 11, 2008 4:40 pm airsickness Member Joined: 13 Feb 2008 Posts: 31 Location: Glenside Pa 23ib0d0n wrote: But like AirGunEric said, many match rifles were designed to shoot 575fps with one. One stroke of compressed air? Not a springer though right? Am I understanding you guys right? How would a new shooter know the difference when shopping for one?   Posted: Tue Mar 11, 2008 4:43 pm broommaster2000 Moderator Joined: 10 Mar 2007 Posts: 5714 Location: City of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands 23ib0d0n wrote: There are a few serious shooters Like the Daystates and Japanese Sharps rifles that would produce about 30fpe with 8 strokes, but like AirGunEric said, many match rifles were designed to shoot 575fps with one.

If you ever come over to the Netherlands, you're going to sell me one of those guns. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Tue Mar 11, 2008 6:31 pm AirGunEric Site Admin Joined: 20 Jan 2007 Posts: 6930 Location: "Out There" airsickness wrote: One stroke of compressed air? Not a springer though right? Am I understanding you guys right? How would a new shooter know the difference when shopping for one? Yes- one stroke of compressed air- no mainspring for power. Look here for a glossary of airgun terms: http://www.airgunhome.com/pages/glossary.html When you are looking at different airguns (ads, store, however) you should be able to see the type of "powerplant"- which could be spring, PCP (pre-charged pneumatic- i.e. compressed air tank/reservoir), Co2 (carbon dioxide canisters/tanks), MSP (multi-stroke pneumatic- i.e. multi-hand-pumps to get it powered up) and SSP (single-stroke pneumatic- one pump to power it up). Here is an example of an SSP gun: http://www.pyramydair.com/cgi-bin/model.pl?model_id=1000 Click on the "Click here for specifications" button to see what type of powerplant it uses. Same thing for other guns to verify how they are powered. _________________ ` I'd say "I care." But I'd be lying.
