300 Yards with the gauntlet 30 on Easter 2023

[@johnnybbgunner2136]

Very nice shooting and rifle set up.🇺🇸

[@OdySlim]

That is so incredible. I am a little OG. My thing used to be shooting my Ruger 10-22 at 100 - 200 yards. The Gauntlet is on fine pellet gun/ rifle . Thanks for the video. Regards from Ody Slim

I remember shooting right behind squirrels and then hitting them while they are on the run for their den. Crazy fun.

[@LegacyAirguns]

Wow! Nice shooting!

[@michaelmello9510]

Nice shot 🤙

[@ThePlumber747]

Nice shooting, how much pop is left at that extreme range of 300 yds!

[@cruzoutdoors7912]

I bet it would still kill a coyote at this distance. It most certainly kills squirls because I have done it at this distance. A few weeks ago I took down a coyote at 122 yards. Dropped with one shot to vital area.

[@shanepitzer4126]

Nice shooting! The dust signature looked like there was a fair wind from left to right.

[@cruzoutdoors7912]

You are correct. After looking at the footage a little closer, you can see the dust moving to the right-hand side.

[@shanepitzer4126]

@@cruzoutdoors7912 That's some great shooting. The path of the pellet is way above ground level, and who knows what the wind is doing up there. Hard enough to read the wind looking at the movement of vegetation. I don't have an airgun with that much capability, but I like rock plinking with the 308Win, out to a mile or so. 24 mils elevation correction at 1800 yards is my furthest. It's all fun. Thanks for sharing!

Nice shooting man. 👌 I’ve got my g30 dialed in with the 43gr nsa slugs. Getting easy 1.5” groups at 100 yards. It seems to have major inconsistency’s with any of nsa’s heavier slugs though and I can seem to tune them in. Maybe I should switch brands to go heavier?

[@cruzoutdoors7912]

I tried those slugs as well. My barrel was not happy w the harder compound NSA uses. They are not 100 percent lead. They have a noticeably harder compound than the VKs. It's likely that every gun is different. I will say the biggest improvement I did to my g30 was a heavy polishd barel. I used wet sand paper and a wood dowel for hours.

[@cruzoutdoors7912]

Also, i have tuned the vibrations in the barrel using a custom dampner using RTV silicone. I prefer to stay away from barrel bands because they caused me side to side inconsistencies depending on if I ever had the gun laying on its side. The barel would shift to the side a bit and stay there ever so slightly and made my shots go right or left randomly

[@AtmoTacOutdoors]

@@cruzoutdoors7912 thanks for your knowledge! Helps a lot. Did you use just regular red RTV or was there a special kind that you used? And now did you go about doing that just putting it between the barrel and shroud?

[@cruzoutdoors7912]

​@Evan Capps I built a dampner with 1/2" heater hose. I installed it between the barel and the air tank. I drilled a small hole in the side of it and filled it with black RTV. I did multiple tests with the damping in different locations until the grouping got good 👍 make sure the air tank is fully secure tight. That's an entirely different mod that I did to get the air tank secure. I did a ton of work to the gun. I will do a video soon

[@manuelsilva2462]

Nice shooting how’s it van working out

[@cruzoutdoors7912]

The van is incredibly useful. We are taking it on a camping trip next week. I will shoot a video of that for the channel

[@LowkeyAirgunner]

Pretty impressive for the distance!

[@reedsilvesan2197]

Some people can shoot, Some can't. You can!

[@pelletman5577]

Im waiting the video explaining the mod to get the slugs so smooth in the barrel, also we need to do something with the trigger to ,hola from mexico amigo

[@cruzoutdoors7912]

I will a do a video next week on the mods I have done. There was a bunch

[@grahambamford9073]

Get yourself a metal spinning target or better still several and put them out a different distances.

[@cliffb.2416]

What did you do to get slugs to go in that easy?

[@cruzoutdoors7912]

It's a little complicated, but I think I can make a video on that upgrade as well as others. I machined out the rifling

[@SummerCrowfpv]

That’s excellent accuracy 👍 with 50g slugs. Question: what did you do to make slugs load that smoothly? If I’m shooting 47-50g it’s not too bad but if I load 65g slugs I practically need a hammer to close the breach

[@cruzoutdoors7912]

I machined out the rifling in the breach and polished the heck out of it. It was a nightmare before. I should do a video on all of the mods I did to this gun. Lots of polishing of parts, including the entire barrel.
