Got my new air rifle toy last Thursday shot a few test shots today. The rifle is the Eun Jin Sumatra 2500 500 cc. Here's a pic of the best groups. shot today on my 40 yd range. The aiming dots are .75".



The pellets were the Beeman Kodiak 21 gr thumpers. Don't know what the velocity was. In the high power mode the rifle is supposed to spit that pellet out at 1050 fps so, 800 fps wouldn't surprise me.

just hold the toys n shoot...........

oke i see, itu jawabannya udh ada diatas. thk bro gelan

I use a Gamo shadow 1000 .177 ran at 1000fps when new its now 4/5 yrs old i ran it across the chrony the other day and and still shoots 935fps avg groupings with it at 25 mtrs are 1".
Taught my kids to shoot using a webley .177 and the s/s 12g.

A little bit of tweaking of the sights mate and you have a head shot on rats no problems.

Cheers, Vince

Does Anyone Can calculate this accuracy of grouping?
i use Canon 707 air rifle 177.cal at 15 meters 5 times Shots

Keep me posted on your first big-bore airgun!

One thing you will want ASAP for a 909 is the foster fitting adapter Leroy at BGMF sells for the 909. It takes the headaches out of the stock fill fittings. The original fill probe is a real pain to get a seal at times.

Butcher,

Thanks for all the information. I'm looking into suppliers now.

As far as hunting down here, my ranch has been leased to the same bunch of hunters for over 10 years.

If I hear of any farms or ranches that are looking for hog hunters, I'll let you know.

Butcher45, Thanks for the hunting invite, but I've got plenty places to hunt. I'm going to start looking at all the web sites on air guns and look into your recommendation on the double-tubed Sam Yang 909 in .45 caliber. What does BGMF Airguns do to the air guns to make them shoot so much better? Cary

I think he puts a custom valve in it, and probably different springs, along with a lil' magic here and there. It brought the power of mine up to 253fpe with 205grainers and 235-245 with everything weighing 142-265 grains.

I figured you had hunting opportunities being in south Texas and all. Just an invite to meet some other bigbore airgunners.

You could always host an airgun hunt to get us down there (hint hint)!

Butcher45, Nice job. You got some good eatin' there. I'm convinced, I'm going air!!!!!!!!!!!! Cary

Cary you will not regret it, and it will make you feel like a kid again!

I HIGHLY suggest the double-tubed Sam Yang 909 in .45 caliber. Then send it off to BGMF Airguns (tell Leroy that Butcher sent you) and have him do his power tune. That will set you up to kill any sized deer within 50 yards, and take out meat-sized hogs with a body shot, all other hogs with a brainshot.

Carry, if you act fast and get a 909 into Leroy's hands, you are welcome to join us on our second bigbore airgun hog hunt that we are putting together for this coming Oct. We'll be doing this once or twice a year.

On my first evening sit I had to give myself the red-light on shooting, as I was not comfortable with my sight-in results. My scopes vertical adjustment wasn't working properly, and I was hitting a little high and a little to the left. At first, I was fooling myself thinking I would just wait until a hog got right at the range I was sighting in at and adjust my aim as I left camp. I felt less and less confident with that idea as I got closer and closer to my stand.
I also realized I could not recall re-filling my air after shooting my last group. So I decided it would be a no-shooting sit, and that I would try to study the hogs behavior as much as possible if I saw any.
Sure enough, over a dozen big hogs came by my stand, most being sows around 120-160lbs, with one hog being a 200+lb, piss-and-vinegar boar that demanded 6ft of personal space at all times. There was also what I believe to be a sow weighing about 250lbs in the treeline that would not come out.
I returned to camp to find I had indeed not refilled my gun with air, and it would have been a disaster had I taken a shot as it would have been pretty low in power.
I saw a hog that weighed between 300 and 350lbs on my way to a sit one day that stopped me in my tracks upon seeing it. All I could think was "please don't run my way" as it looked un-stoppable when it ran. So there are some real bruisers there.
