Last Saturday was The Things That Shoot Show down in OH.(over1/2 off $)
I have been bitten bad by the Dark Side.I always wanted a powerhouse of an air rifle that can both deliver a pellet with authority and accuracy.After reading on what pellet gun might accomplish this I found out Career/Sumatra rifles to have outstanding accuracy with all the power one could ask for.
Most the guys that know me here know I am partial to .20 caliber guns. I'm the one who built the .20 cal. Super Quest with Diana internals.
Now Here's the skinny on the Sumatra 2500R
3000psi on a fill 30-40 shots,3 stage power adjuster from low to high.
It shoots 25gr. Eun-Jin pellets at 1035fps on medium power with 45 fpe.
Its grouping within a less than dime at 30 yards (90ft.) off a bench.
And it is one loud SOB.
Thanks for looking.

Sweet Jesus! 1035fps using .20 25gr EJ? You probably should have went with .22, I am told because the .20 are longer they have more drag and lower velocity for the same weight.
Was that 1035fps on low mid or high? How much did the gun cost at half price? |

Fritz,
That number was thru my Chrony at medium power,I am about 360 ft above sea level so its just under the sound barrier here.No way on the .22's these .20's have a trajectory that can't be matched.Drag ?? Drag you say?? With the power this thing puts out that's the last thing I'll worry about Te he he.
Price?How about 3 bills out the door,not a mark on it,with 2 cylinders/magazines,all paper work even the hang tags,fill probe,Man! I got everything but the box it came in,,and it was fully charged(3000psi) to boot.I added a Simmons 3-9X50 on top.
Now to hush it up a little,its damn near as loud as a 17HMR.
Best Regards to ya Fritz!!

Well, I suppose if you're not going for all out power. That 45fpe with a relatively flat trajectory should shoot fine out to 125yd. With it being on mid power you are also getting a much better shot count and still putting out the power of a condor just below max setting.
Do a few shots on high for us? I'm guessing 1375 at the muzzle. |

I don't think she is ugly... But... even ugly women can get the job done... Some times better than a pretty one....

| I think the Chinese pcps look really nice. Seems like they might not balance too well though. |
