.177 Condor
😮 I am really surprised at how well my new condor .177 shoots. JSB heavy,2800 fill,standard tank,stock tophat setting,power wheel at 6,worst group-15 shot 1.2″ at 28 yds, it was 30 farenheight ,dark and I’m sure I wasn’t looking straight through scope. Best group, shots 41-45 grouped .75″ctc at 50 yrds kneeling,and only droped 1.25″ from 28yrd zero. A couple of 5 shot .4″ at 28yrds. Shots 73 -75 grouped .2″ at 28 yrds. and only .5″ below 28 yrd zero. Dont know velocity yet, but shoots 0-65 really seemed to twack my backstop at 28 yrds. Simmons .22 mag 3X9 non AO, (objective is focused at 50 yrds. ) Shooting done at 6X.

Just out of curiousity I wonder how fast one could get one of those .177 Condors going. I’m not saying it would be any where near accurate enough for s**t.
My mind just wonders… say, a Blodnob valve, running helium, with a 24″ barrel shooting Beeman Lasers or cleaning pellets… haha.
Don’t forget I’m using a standard tank, not the high flow. Only the 50 yard groups were shot without a rest. I’ve shot 75 shots now and can still shot more! Can’t wait till I get the micrometer tank back from AF, bet it shoots 125 hard shots.
I can’t believe the pellets aren’t going supersonic. The condor puts out alot of air, just don’t understand how the shots remain stable. Sounds like dam good offhand shooting though.

I would venture a guess at 1400+ pretty easily. PBA’s would undoubtably go faster still.
Like you said thou, wouldnt be usable for much beyond about 20yards.
