Heel erg blij met deze video. Schiet aardige groepjes op 100 meter met de 25gr jsb maar de 34 MII jsb en FX hybrid slugs krijg ik niet in een groep. Gek genoeg doen de ZAN 33 gn slugs het heel erg goed, maar de 26 gn ZAN weer niet. Ik zit dus veel te hoog in snelheid, rond de 960 FPS. Eerst maar eens rustig naar beneden met de snelheid en dan kijken wat er kan. Top dat je dit maakt. groet, TM.

[@Airbuks]

Bedankt voor de support 👍🏻 Ben zeer blij met deze resultaten en voor een keer kreeg ik de hybride slugs in een redelijk groepje ( nog nooit succes mee gehad ) Die ZAN slugs wil ik al een tijdje proberen , nu met de schaarste rond pellets is het misschien een goed moment 👍🏻

[@heathhalfhill6867]

I have been having better accuracy with the 34 grain FX pellets than the JSBs? I know they are both made in the same factory but I assure you…there is something different🤷‍♂️ don’t know what but JSBs give me 2-3” groups at 100 yards and the FX 1”. Don’t understand why but it is what it is. Awesome gun and video…thank you.

[@Airbuks]

Yes the FX pellets are produced by JSB in very large batches from a new set off dies . This gives a better consistency throughout the whole batch and therefore can be better in accuracy. But I haven’t been able to get my hands on them ( difficult to get pellets these days 😬)

You can’t go buy first group. Barrel may shoot well. Like those slugs. Then more shots they’ll open up. Need to shoot s whole string of 25-25 shots to draw any good conclusions. Remember when you adjust power. There is something different happening inside barrel as far as pellet/slug and the barrel.

Would you have the regulators set differently with a 700mm barrel? I don't yet have a chronograph and have made no adjustments yet to the valve spring adjuster or either reg..

I realize it's been year since the video, but using your settings on the M3 .25 with the power block is way off. And I also realize the addition of the power block does make a difference. Wondering if you've had a chance to recalibrate the M3 with the power block.

Hoi , geen probleem ivm de comment ;-) Wat je kan verwachten van een M3 600mm hangt af van een heleboel dingen . Wil je slugs of pellets schieten , zware slugs of lichte , heb je een 480cc of een 580cc fles , 250 bar of 300bar, hoge of lage regulator druk , etc

[@ronaldpierattini6909]

What a good video, I have a question. I recently had an M3 and I am setting it up. It is true that when the M3 is well set up you should hear it clearly when the plenum fills with air or is it a myth? I ask you why I don't hear it and to be clear that I have to keep insisting on searching for those sounds or maybe it's not necessary.

[@derivas007]

could you create a video with all best settings for each popular pellets or slugs available for .22?for example all jsb pellets/slug lines? there are nothing about good setting start set up.

[@Airbuks]

Hi , as I am not sponsorde by anyone these things cost some investment to make such a video. I also don’t believe that copying someone’s settings is the way to go as harmonics is the key to accuracy. It will give you a good starting point but won’t believe perfect. If you watched this video and some others I made you can see how easy it is to figure out the perfect velocity for your gun and particular ammunition. Hope my explanation makes sense

Hi , that’s to long ago to remember, have changed the setup so many times by now 🫣 but all the info should be in the video

[@GLCOT]

What were the out of the box settings when you got the M3? I just picked up a M3 .25 with the 600mm barrel but the settings were changed before I got it so I don’t have the factory settings. I would like to set it up for the FX 34 gr. pellets. Been working with it but haven’t had good luck so far. If you have some good settings for the 34 gr with a 600mm barrel it would be appreciated.

[@Airbuks]

Hi Gregory, the original settings of the 25 600mm I don’t remember as they where not what I needed 😉 so I swapped it to the 700mm barrel and those are the settings I came up with in the video . Pellets tend to fly accurate between 830-880 fps . So make sure you tune your gun to that range with a 600mm .

[@GLCOT]

@@Airbuks thank you very much for your reply. I have my 2nd reg At 95 as that is what I heard was the factory setting but I’m not sure. At 95 I haven’t been able to get past 849 FPS so I guess I’ll bump it up a little. Not sure what is max recommended on 2nd reg for .25.

[@Airbuks]

I guess you have to go to 110 bar -115 bar to shoot 34 grains at that velocity. The 95 bar you read on the internet is based on the 25 Gr pellets. Just make sure you keep 30-40 bar different between the first and second regulator

[@Airbuks]

Have you tested it with a chronograph to see if you get consistent velocity? This might explain the flyer sometimes . This doesn’t mean something is wrong with the rifle but might be bad tune . If you have it setup wrong it might be that the air usage is low not draining the plenum enough to trigger the recharge quickly, resulting in a slower velocity on the next one as . Hope this makes sense

[@heric.4428]

Question is what is the ES at the low end? I did this and at the high power end ES was 7 fps. Low end was 33 fps. One tune really isn’t great.

[@Airbuks]

If I remember correctly it was about 15ES but don’t get hung up on the ES around 20ES you can still get good accuracy. The tune can also be affected as humidity , altitude etc come into play

[@smokkelaer1]

Would you prefer a donny shogun or ronin? I see that you use the ronin? I did the same tune on my .25 sniper today. Took the regulator from 100 to 115 bar. I couldnt get the desired speed with the mk2's without a big spread of speed with the factory setting. Air usage went up 100% tho ;)

@@Airbuks i did copy the settings as mentioned before. Heavys where going way to fast. I took the hammerspring finetune to 3 (wheel on max) to get some desireble groups. I pushed the 25grains at 870 on wheelsetting 7. But eventually I turned the finetune a bit to find the best groupings at 100m. To my opinion it's difficult to find a best tune for both weights. I still have a lot of mk2's, but eventually I will go back to 25 grains. It uses way less air, more pellets per box and commonly better pellets than the 34 grains. So I will set the regulator at 105 and tune it back.

@@justinhromek73 yes those small variations in velocity can be between different guns to be the most accurate.

Thanks for the video. I am receiving my 25 cal Impact MK3 in about a month. I am having them tune the gun to fit the 33.95 JSB. I am 100 feet below see level so I am wondering if that will add to the fps second or take it away? Air will be thicker so probably slow it down some. I am going to use this gun for hunting mostly so asked them to get the best accuracy in the tune above 900 fps. Id like some heat in the gun to have more impact.. Do you think taking the fps to 905-910 for 33.95 will produce a good accuracy for hunting at a distance of 35-75 meters ? Thanks again

[@Airbuks]

I am not really aware if it will take away from the FPS or add 🤔 I always thought the higher the more you lose ? But I am not sure if that . You can get a good tune above 900 wit the 34gr they should be able to handle it , but I wouldn’t go above 920. You can always opt for a slug at those speed with a 30 Gr hollow point, perfect for hunting. Much flatter trajectory and better bc with strong impact and expansion

I shouldn't be using this much air should I ? What are your regs set at? They say in the manual to not adjust the second regulator. Is this true ?

[@Airbuks]

@@brocwavra8813 In the manual they state that you should not adjust the first regulator ( but it’s no problem if you do and know what you are doing )the air consumption depends on what caliber and velocity you are shooting a particular weight projectile .

[@brocwavra8813]

@@Airbuks I am shooting JSB 34 grain. Might try closing the valve some to increase shot count but I will lose speed. I think at 140-145 on first reg I will leave it alone. I might bring up the second reg to say 120, then lower the macro and micro and close the valve? Maybe I can achieve the same velocity but not sure. Once you raise the second reg can you lower it without degassing the gun? Just turn clockwise correct ?

[@simonedis6741]

Have tried the new superior barrel does that need indexing too

[@Airbuks]

You can index it if you want , for this video I didn’t do that . Just put it in and shoot 😉

[@simoncoher4841]

Hi very informative video , I am looking at either a .22 or .25 in the M3 but not sure what to get Use is for small game and long range targets up to 200 yards what would you suggest thank you ..

[@Airbuks]

If you want to go long range I would advise a 25cal but with the new progress made in 22 cal especially with slugs and heavier ammunition you can take that in consideration aswel . Difficult Choice 🤔 you can always start with one and still get a barrel kit later to change caliber . That’s the easy thing with FX you can constantly change your guns like me 🙈

[@simoncoher4841]

@@Airbuks Hi mate thanks for the reply There's definitely more pellets and slugs for the .22 especially here in the UK then there is for .25 I've been doing a lot of research and there doesn't seem that much difference in the 2 calibres up to say 200 yards decisions, problem is after a 2 k bill be a while before I get another calibre so want to make the right choice if possible, Keep the great videos coming 👍

[@Airbuks]

@@benstriker4546 mmm , het hangt ervan af hoever je wilt gaan de Titan en Helix is volgens mij de beste prijs kwaliteit keuze . De Nexus is ongetwijfeld beter , niet zo zeer in helderheid maar in definitie van je beeld ook zijn de kleuren is mooier , ook zijn de turret kliks iets beter . Maar als je een gewone hobbyist bent is het zeer veel geld voor net dat beetje beter . De Titan is de favoriet voor de meeste die ik met mijn dingen laat schieten omdat het draadkruis iets dikker is , ik persoonlijk kies liever voor de Nexus

My 600mm .25 M3 is arriving in about a week. Do you think the Ronin is the best moderator for this gun?? Other people's opinion welcome as well

[@james1795]

I have a 700mm .25 on the way. I ordered it May 4th. I have a Wildcat Compact Mkll that the go to pellets are JSB 34mkII's. I sure hope the M3 likes 34gn JSB'S & FX 34gn. Because before the China disease, I had accumulated approximately 5500 .25 pellets. So, luckily, no shortage here. Also, I do have a Ronan which will go from the Wildcat to the M3 when it arrives.

You can use any moderator you want I am working on a video that shows that by mod works and it’s just a harmonic tuning

You can try , but it will be shooting the 16 and 18 Gr pellets pretty fast with these settings. Or you can shoot some 22cal 25gr jsb monsters that can work well I think

Hi Iv got a M3 .25 in 600mm. Any idea how i could adapt your tune to work

[@Airbuks]

🤔 not immediately but , you can try to up the first and second regulator by 10 bar . But to do it correctly you will have to retune it

[@1talan]

@@Airbuks 600mm barrel is 14.3% smaller. So could you increase the reg pressure by 14.3%? What about the hammer spring, would you also increase it or would you need to decrease it,because you have a shorter runway? Would be nice if it was that easy 🤔
