  • In our Airgun Bootcamp series, we take a look at some airgunning basics and attempt to give answers, tips and instructions. In this video we give an introduction to FPS vs FPE, power vs velocity, and how it has an effect on accuracy.
    Stay tuned for more great Airgun Bootcamp videos!

    I never knew that pellets had optimal muzzle velocity characteristics but the explanation and demonstration here was really educational. Thank you

      In general the 'diabolo' skirted pellet design doesn't do well if shot at supersonic speeds, it's better suited to subsonic. The shape is 'weight forward' with the waist/skirt adding drag at the rear of the pellet which helps stabilize it at subsonic speeds, but at speeds around the sound barrier the diabolo shape tends to lose stability.

    Besides spending most of my time these days shooting my PCP air rifles, I'm a professional photographer so I want to tell you first of all the video production itself was perfect and I really appreciate that the audio is perfect everything was perfect and the topic and the explanations were also perfect so thank you. Let me know if you'd like an advance look on the Stoeger XM1 Ranger.

    I visit this shop regularly and even though I didn’t get my air rifle from them they’ve always been super courteous and helpful! I have a hatsan neutron star and from the factory on its lowest setting it’s shooing 25gr pellets at over 1,000 fps and I cannot get it to group for crap. Definitely going to go through these guys for my next air rifle.

    • @Cisco1322
      @Cisco1322 Před 2 měsíci

      Try using a heavier pellet. That’s a good velocity not that it means much when it comes to accuracy however a heavier pellet will probably get you a better grouping. Hope that will help🤞

    • @josephcraig765
      @josephcraig765 Před 2 měsíci

  • @jettferox5660
    @jettferox5660 Před 3 lety +8

    Nice video Lauren. If you tune it down further to just under 900fps the groups will likely be 1/2" even further out. Most pellets start to spiral after 900fps. Spiraling occurs when the pellet loses forward speed downrange, but still has most of the RPM (spin) it started with because the RPM reduces at a much slower rate than the forward velocity does. This means that the pellet is spinning faster than it needs to, and gyroscopic effect takes over. To combat this you slow the pellet down as this lady did. You can also use a slower twist rate barrel and keep the higher velocity. Slugs are less prone to spiraling but have other challenges.

    • @krokinymous
      @krokinymous Před rokem +1

      Jett Ferox well said.. So to fight spiral effect we have to: 1. Reduce the FPS if we use light pellet, 2. Use heavier pellet if we didn't want to change the FPS or 3. Use slower twist rate barrel if we didn't want to change the light pellet and the FPS. Is my opinion correct?

    It is shocking how many sporting good stores try and push the extreme high fps guns. It is always fun to but in and correct them when they are talking to a customer.

    • @rickyanke9407
      @rickyanke9407 Před 3 lety +2

      A rifle that can shoot high fps isn't the issue. It's that like any rifle, the owner needs to experiment and find the ammo that particular rifle shoots consistently small groups. That MAY be a type of ammo that is heavy/lower fps OR it could be lighter and higher fps. Every rifle, even the same model, may prefer different ammo. This video clearly shows the type that rifle preferred. Another type of ammo of the same weight and fpe may group poorly from it. Thus butting in without explaining that, or saying a slower fps rifle is better, is simply being a knownothing.

    Awesome video, thanks for the example of pellet weights. I used to be hung up on velocity from my airguns. When i first saw the pellets spiraling to the target and the groups were horrible , I had to search for answers and spend a lot of money trying different pellets. I would like to see a video about slugs and barrel diameters. Thanks.

    The Speed ​​can be higher if the Ballistic Coefficient is better and the projectile is heavier! This is the criterion for 1200fps! ~31-32 grain or more, and better B.C. value, more streamlined design!

  • @jeremyarnold1979
    @jeremyarnold1979 Před 5 měsíci

    Looks like the first shot with 25.4 grain keyhole. Maybe just me. I shoot them at 890-900 from impact m3 700mm and get hole in hole fun at 50 yards all day. 100 yards is possible at that speed but lots of moa low. But 1 inch groups at 100 maybe 1.1 1.2 inch on bad day. In my gun at 950 they do really good at 50 but fall apart at 100. I guess that's where the red wolf shines over the impact m3. Great video ma'am.
