Airforce Airguns Texan .257 powerful and accurate

[@aeromagnumtv1581]

Thank you for the excellent, thorough and informative review Eric. It's certainly a great honor to finally have you sending our Aeromunition down range.

That camo paint job looks great 👍

Brian Trujillo thanks

[@nealtressler1661]

Sweet accuracy and power from the Aeromagnums... my Condor is with Doug right now for a conversion, along with a Talon Tunes tank..... I also purchased the Ronin... Man, I’m pumped! It just might be the PERFECT airgun for game from 20-75 lbs, especially at long range. I will probably hunt with the Aeromagnums or the NSA 80 grn, but I also want to develop a heavier (100-110) hollowpoint with more controlled expansion for hogs and what not. Thanks for a good video, as always, Eric

[@aeromagnumtv1581]

Doug Noble having your AirForce Airgun, I'm sure instills a true sense of confidence in what to expect upon it's return from his skillful hands/Airgun Smithing. Good for you.

Eexcellent accuracy and power from the Airmunition 70 gr...Nice rifle setup too

[@rodgerpettiet7552]

Don't know of a better representation of caliber shoots for this .257 Texan. This video was a big reason for my ordering the gun. Thanks for the lessons. Im new to this, searching for a good mold in 70 to 80 grain range. Having trouble locating with all that is. Nice shooting

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

I was told that old videos don’t sell guns. Lol Thanks for watching

[@rodgerpettiet7552]

@@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield Success, it's in hand. About to move down that way so havent set for reloading yet. So I havent shot it yet. Thank you for what you've done, good reviews.

looking forward to the ballistic tip .257 rounds from Aeromagnum, can't wait to see what #'s they get

Great vid Brother Man. The 70gr work great!!!

[@longrange9818]

Good short review.Please you try air venturi 87gr and 105 gr flat point projectiles.

[@Gunner-ll1zd]

Caliber related question. I'm another Texas hunter that hunts hogs, deer and the occasional predator messing with my livestock. If I can only snag one caliber rifle for hunting (and practicing a fair amount), which would you choose? I was leaning toward the Texan LSS 357, but wanted a real world opinion. Thanks.

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

Depends on how far you want to shoot. The .357 would work good.

[@Gunner-ll1zd]

Max 100 yards, likely 65-70 yards. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

Gunner 1985 308 would work great.

[@maikolpinto1155]

Hello, I have a Texan cal 357 carbine and I would like to shoot 80 g JSB pellets at about 750 to 800 fps. What do you recommend to make that modification

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

You’ll have to turn down the power on the power wheel

[@maikolpinto1155]

The thing is that I do pest control and I think that my Texan has a lot of speed for small animals, so I would like to lower it to 750 or 800fps. 

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

@@maikolpinto1155 you’d be better off switch into a condor in 25 caliber

[@HolyBibleOpen]

Have the same and putting lethal airs 4500 psi supervalve on it. Casting 122 grain 260 roberts bullets for it and will max it out to those bullets. At 1055 fps it has 301.46 fp energy. If I can go higher I will take it too 1100fps to be subsonic. At that speed it would have 327 pounds energy. What PSI that happens at I will regulate it to that pressure. Will post a video when finished. love your videos.

Coming soon for Veteran Big-bore Airgunner Eric Henderson to Field Test: our hard-hitting, flat-nose, .257, AA/YOTIE/EXT-BT (extended boat-tail). Designed for increased long range stability/accuracy and increased knock-down energy. Happy/Safe Hunting!

Hello sir how are you,m from Pakistan,I want to some advice from you about this gun,plz you tell me that can I use the less(bottom) from 50 grains pellet in this gun? Thanks...

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

It shoots best with 70 grn 50 grain is a little light

Hi, excellent review! Between 257 and 357 which caliber do you recommend for long distance?

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

.257 for sure

[@garypitzer8729]

Where did you get that nice camo job done?

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

I do all my own camo. Years of practice with spray paint. 3 coats of matte clear keep it from coming off

Hello Jorge, please contact via: [e-mail]. Thank you!

[@davidmuan1192]

How many shots does it gives

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

It all depends on the power level you have it set at. Also the distance. At the distance I’m shooting and at the power level I am shooting you get three shots that will be next to each other.

[@juliocesarsilva525]

Good evening, could you tell me if the barrel is scratched or flat? thank you...

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

I don’t quite sure follow. Are you asking if it’s rifled or smooth?

this is definately NOT accurate guys. We are talking about 60 yards here,not 150 yards or beyond.With that kind of accuracy,power means nothing to me.You seem to get impressed pretty easily..

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

Δημήτρης Νίκου thanks for sharing your opinion. Do you have any others you wanna share? I mean we all all ears since you are an expert.

[@ΔημήτρηςΝίκου-ε3π]

@@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield You know,I was in a really bad mood by the time and I spoke like an asshole.Really sorry about that,didn't mean to offend you.You answer was really kind and smart,by the way.Anyways, I am really dissapointed by the 257,as far as I hear, I expected a much better performance.You know,here in Greece we are not allowed to have firearms,but only with smooth barrels,so I am looking for precision with an air rifle in medium-long range distances...

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

Δημήτρης Νίκου having three shots in almost one hole at 60 yards is not impressive? Especially at 180 foot pounds of energy. What other gun can do that? I don’t know of any other. And yes I was being a smart ass because your comment wasn’t very nice. But if you have serious questions then I have serious answers. Thank you for watching my video. Feel free to ask questions. If I don’t answer I’m sure somebody else will.

[@ΔημήτρηςΝίκου-ε3π]

@@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield Eric,I would have been very impressed,to say the least,if it was a three group stots.But what about the others? It is obvious,from these three shots you just mentioned,that the big distance of the other shots, has nothing to do with you as a shooter,but it's the rifles failure.It might not seemed such a big group,but what would have happened if your target was in 100 or 150 yards? Know,the first serious question that comes in mind,is if the rifle is regulated. Second,is the barrel suitable for slugs,or it would performed better with a pellet? The fpe is extraordinary,no doubt about it, but airforce claimed that with the 257cal. the accuracy is so hi quality,that you can shoot game accurate up to 200 yards,maybe more...Third question,is there any modifications you can do to the rifle to achieve such distances? You know, I love long range shooting,but I am not really the guy that can afford an fx impact for example,which I know it has the potential for that kind of long range accuracy.To tell you the truth, I cannot give more than 1000 euros by the time for an air rifle,cause I also need at least 500 more for a good scope. I am a marksman since I was a child,but I don't have great experience with precision air rifles, and I cannot risk buying a real rifle illegaly, as I already told you, we can only have shotguns in Greece ,no rifled barrels allowed! Do you have any suggestions? I would appreciate a lot to point me a way. Again,sorry for being such an asshole before,and have a nice year man...

[@EricHendersonAdventuresAfield]

Δημήτρης Νίκου great questions. You could easily kill a coyote at 150 yards no problem. The barrel is made for a 70 grain solid, not a pellet. None of the Airforce guns are regulated. You would have to get a Cometa or a RAW. It’s all good man. I hope you enjoy all my other videos. Check them out if you haven’t. Oh yeah, PBBA make a 20ga air shotgun.
