A closer look at my Crosman Ratcatcher 2250xl

A look at the finished build!

[@That1E_K1129]

Sweet gun! I have a built 2240 that's pretty much maxed out with every little upgrade you can think of. I'm in the process of turning it hpa I can't wait to see the gains it gives me.

Hi ThatE_kDude what your fps on 2240 ? I have a 2240 that is doing 513 fps .oldgeorge

[@That1E_K1129]

@@georgethayer3533 well its converted to pcp now with a 3000psi safepac and I'm getting almost 920fps with a 24" barrel. Every internal part has been polished. Oversized transfer port, marauder style repeater breech and a lightened trigger with adjustment and an A/R stock conversion with power adjuster with a .408 heavy hammer spring. It's taken very long for me to find a combination of parts to get it where it's at now. I've literally bought and tried every performance modification you can think of and this is the best one by far in the 4yrs I've been tinkering with it. Thank you for asking I love talking about airguns. I forgot to mention that the fps is with a 18gr. Jsb diabolo. I like to shoot slugs though with a 25gr. H&N it shoots roughly 850fps. Pcp conversion is the way to go with them if you want to see anything over 600fps. On co2 I couldn't get it over 610fps in warm temperatures with the long barrel.

Hello Jon, nice looking custom 2250, I know what you mean about the barrel length, good review mate, Regards, Jon, HETV 👍

[@jonwoodhousea.k.a.pistolcr3943]

Thanks, Jon. Yes, I'm pleased with it and as I said in the video it seems to shoot just as well as before. 👍

hi where my scope is the barrel moves from side to side how do i fix its the plastic breech .?can you help please

[@jonwoodhousea.k.a.pistolcr3943]

It's the plastic breech that's the problem. You can get a steel breech kit to replace it with, and that will solve your problem. The 2250xl comes with a steel breech as standard, so doesn't have any problems with movement.

Hi, getting this 2250 xl this week, where abouts did you get the mag extension from? Thanks.

[@jonwoodhousea.k.a.pistolcr3943]

Ebay. It's called a "gravmag".

[@Tony-kl5tz]

Hello. Nice review. Do you have a link for the extended cocking handle?

[@jonwoodhousea.k.a.pistolcr3943]

Hi Tony. Thanks. I don't have a link I'm afraid but if you look on ebay for crosman ratcatcher accessories or crosman ratcatcher cocking handle, I'm sure you'll find one.

[@stevenwilder4157]

Have you got a link for the bipod? Also how is it fitted? I have the grav mag on my xl too. It works very well

[@jonwoodhousea.k.a.pistolcr3943]

Just look on Amazon for "Harris style bipod ". To fit it you'll need to install a sling swivel stud on the foregrip, which you can remove by undoing the 2 allen bolts.

@Jon Woodhouse A.K.A. pistol crossbow fan thanks for replying Jon, will look today

[@jonwoodhousea.k.a.pistolcr3943]

@@stevenwilder4157 Zeadio carbon fibre was the one I ordered, if that helps.

[@bobdobalina1419]

Can you still get these?

[@jonwoodhousea.k.a.pistolcr3943]

Yes, you can. Ask at your local gunshop.

[@bobdobalina1419]

@@jonwoodhousea.k.a.pistolcr3943 Don't have one that I'm aware of.

[@jonwoodhousea.k.a.pistolcr3943]

That's your only option if you live in the UK I'm afraid. If not however, just buy one on-line and have it shipped directly to your address!

[@bobdobalina1419]

I'm in the USA, but can't find it online. The 2250 seems to never be very popular here compared to the 2240, and with the crosman custom shop being closed for several years now, it seems like I would have to buy a 2240 and conversion kit at quite a high price.
