i would agree there mate . i think the crown looks very tidy like that 👍 excellent job . interesting he wants a 22 for target work . please do do a follow up on this one as i would like to see how he gets on for sure
It'll be interesting to see how the .22 barrel works out. Really nice machining video and gives a non engineer (me) and insight into what really goes on in the machine shop 🙂
I've watched quite a few of you uploads very very interesting to watch and pure engineering genius and amazing finish to all your end projects. Outstanding
Is that a Dremel speed click for doing the crown ? those little cut off wheels are expensive for what they are, but i guess very practical for this application in keeping everything true.
This video popping up in my youtube suggestions makes me excited to get working on my big bore crossman 2240/2250 project again. Always enjoyed working on airguns but it's been on hold for a while due to circumstances. Have you tried using a gauge pin in the rifling to dial it in?
it has been tested and the verdict was it was good but not good enough for br comps ☹ i think we are going to try another barrel at some point as they are all different 😀
Hi, I know you do quite a few re-barreling videos and wondered if you know where I could get a .177 Match grade stainless steel heavy barrel for use on a bench rest rifle.
hi sorry we do some but not done a ss one yet, we use chambers for the LW barrels and Bagnal & Kirkwood for all the others. We have used a few FTP 900 barrels but i think they are plated not ss so just look like ss
Great video, do you have any experience with the sig mcx virtus air rifle barrel. This Airgun gives me 2 different groups within 10-15 consecutive shots. I’m trying to figure out why the rifle groups horribly
@@sub12airgunners I hope you can get your hands on one and investigate why. Many owners if not all have this problem. Must be something that owners can do to improve it . I can try to explain the setup briefly. On the 177 mcx and mcx virtus 22 it’s fed into the Airgun by a mag with a belt , with every trigger pull the belt/ plastic chain rotates and lines up internally with the barrel. Then as the trigger is pulled a hammer hits the air chamber valve and a burst of air hits that pellet and pushes it through the barrel, but right before the barrel is a small (breech piece) like a nozzle that is maybe half a mm bigger than the circumference of the pellet. After shooting the pellet into a 25 gallon water trash bin to capture the pellet I can see there’s a smear on one side of the pellet as if it’s not traveling through the barrel straight or evenly. Do you think it’s possible you can get your hands on one. I was thinking maybe putting a inexpensive slightly better barrel like crosman 2240 and if it could be improved a Fx barrel
is there ay reason that you prefer the spider chuck in the 3 jaw over the use of a 4 jaw? is it for the length of grip, as adjusting over 4 points o each of the 2 axis dose allow for a lot of movement a sideways twist
Hi Jake,Al Stevens from airgunforums. Could you please tell me the make/model number of that s/p thread cutting tool please. Where did you get it? Thank you, Atb,Al.
hi Jeff ive converted my walther barrel on my 500 thats now 4 inches shorter and groups around 15mm at 45yrds but would love to put an Anschutz .177 on it for fun just to see what it can achieve. where do you buy these blanks or do you have any for sale? im local to petes
