It would be a 6 shot, smoothbore that shot preceision ground steel balls. Im really debating building a batch(10-25) of them if there is enough of a demand. Im thinking I can get 400ft/sec which isnt a screamer but with a .375 chunk of steel have some knock down power. Think something like this would get any interest?

I have one of those designed too, just didnt think there would be much interest cause my design only permits the use of lead balls, but has a 20rd capacity. _________________ The Unorthodox Hunter Blog   Posted: Sun Dec 14, 2008 9:13 am broommaster2000 Moderator Joined: 10 Mar 2007 Posts: 5714 Location: City of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands Hm, maybe you should talk to Al a bit, maybe he'll come up with a nice solution for pellets. Check out his pellet dispenser. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Sun Dec 14, 2008 2:40 pm BirdMan Member Joined: 06 Dec 2008 Posts: 32 I know a pellet repeater is possible. ive seen a few types that have been done. Just dont wanna copy someone elses design or ideas. _________________ The Unorthodox Hunter Blog .375 repeater?     Air Gun Home Forum Index » General Air Gun Questions and Topics You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum All times are GMT - 5 Hours   Page 1 of 1   All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Select a forum Main Forums----------------AirGunHome Q&AGeneral Air Gun Questions and TopicsPicture GalleryTarget Shooting: Casual, Fun and CompetitionHunting, Pest Control, Varminting People/Events/Airgun Issue Discussion----------------Introduce YourselfThe BS TopicClubs/Events/Regional/Political Airgun Issues Maintenance, Modification and Reviews----------------RiflesPistolsAntique, Collector and Novelty AirgunsBB GunsPellets/AmmoOpticsAccessoriesAirgun Smithing Buy, Sell or Trade Forums----------------For SaleWant to Buy   Note: If you are seeing "Please enter your username and password to log in."
