Depends mostly on the barrel length.... and secondly on how much you want to pump it.... With a stock 10" barrel I'm guessing around 700 fps....

I managed to fire a 7 gr. pellet supersonic using a 24" barrel, a bigger valve, and the pump assembly from a 1400.... It still had the 1377 triggergroup, though.... The gun is now detuned (using a stock valve volume) to ~990 fps (7.8 gr.) at 30 pumps with a 2200 pump assembly, and shoots 500 at only 3 pumps, and 800 at 10 pumps (940 at 20).... Multiply those pump numbers by about 1.5 for a 1377 pump mechanism....

Wow! No kidding? I had no idea. I was hoping to get this one up to at
least the high 700s.

I have already done a lot to it that I read about on the yellow forum.
I enlarged and angled the transfer port. I drilled the air entry hole in
the barrel larger and I completely eliminated the little transfer tube that
Crosman calls the transfer port. So now it is pretty much a 3/16"
passage up to the hole in the barrel. I polished the hammer and part of the
main tube that it slide in.

It is now up to 670 fps and is a lot louder like it is putting out a much
stronger air flow. So I think that it will push more barrel.

I have a 20 inch Lothar Walther target barrel ordered for it and am going
to start with 18 inches and work from there.
