2nd part of review of a .25 (6.35) caliber Huben K1 where I go into power and accuracy with different pellets. More tests are coming in next reviews.

Great video Gregor. Thank you so much for this review. I'm a bit disappointed that Huben's vision changed from long distance/slug shooting to pellets. They were the leader with this new technology, and many air gunners are now looking for the slug shooting options available. FX is catching up, with a new slug barrel. I think the market is saturated with plenty of great pellet shooters within Huben's price point, and their best strategy would have been to improve the range and accuracy of slug shooting.

Looking forward to seeing it set up for the MP slugs !! I just got my 5.52 mold for my V1 and a 6.35 mold for my Condor. Seeing you push them at 300m/s with the K1 really makes me think about getting a .25 as well 🤣🤣

Hi. Nice to hear form you :) The gauge is made by Huben. They actually have a new model already that they showed me at IWA that is spring loaded. Try contacting distributors or Huben directly. Unfortunately, I do not sell slugs, I only designed the molds for K1: mp-molds.com/e-shop/search-result?category_ids=35

Gregor, I am looking to get the Huben K1 Gen 5 in .25 cal. I'd like to shoot slugs but am a bit confused on availability and proper sizing. I'd like to to attempt some 100-125 yd shots with slugs and am wondering which kind you recommend. I've seen NSA slugs, Hunters supply slugs, and Varmit knockers slugs all mentioned on the airgun forums. With sizes from .249 to .253. I also heard the Gen 5 has a threaded muzzle now for the .25 cal. to setup a 1/2-20 moderator. Is this an accurate statement? If slugs are more difficult to find or shoot accurately, I will just get the 0.22 cal model. Thanks for any help!

Hi Gregor, can you please make a video about installing the new pressure gauge? Other question is what you say about barrel design in .25 cal. (more designed for pellets rather than slugs) Is that also true for K1 Gen4 in .22 cal because this barrel is also chocked.
@gregorkamensek3923
@gregorkamensek3923 5 жыл бұрын
All K1's barrels are choked, so the .22 MK4 will work well with slugs. Unchoked barrel are usually better for slugs but the .22 version still works very well with slugs. I use a custom unchoked barrel in the mk1 and it is slightly more accurately than the stock barrel, but with .25, choked barrel seems to have more problems with the slugs. I will make new videos when I have more results.

Very interesting. It’s going to take another 4 or 5 months to save up for whichever one (.22 or .25) I get, so by the time I have to decide I hope to see more of your testing. I’m planning to use heavy slugs at high power settings so I’d prefer .25, so I found this report disappointing. If you do put that 600mm barrel on yours, and it works, I hope it can be obtained in the USA. Even better would be a .25 factory slug barrel. Better yet would be changeable barrels like Fx, but that would no doubt bump the price.

So if I understand correct, the gun does not fire at all (nothing happens when you pull the trigger)? If so, I assume you have something blocking the sear in the rear that releases the valve... I had this situation in the past and in the end it was the spring for setting 2nd stage of trigger pull that way between the sear and the housing blocking it.

Got a Huben K1 .25 today, never shot one till now. Two things i'm noticing. First, the spring clip near the magazine, which should help you inserting the pellet or slug, maybe this could damage the slug a little? It's pushing the slug against the edge of the hole while inserting the slug. Second, you definately need an earplug in the ear which is near the action, because the action itself is LOUD. Wasn't expecting that! You could also make a leather cap or something to put over the action. I'm wearing an earplug untill then.

Ok Gregor.... Lets talk about the last 30 seconds of video where you're shooting the JSB King Heavy at 102M. You can actually see vapor trails behind the pellets. This seems strange to me as I though a vapor tail was a product of supersonic flight. But you just proved my understanding wrong. Also, looks like the Huben is more accurate with pellets than the slugs. This actually surprises me given the .25 are much more stable with the LW twist rate. Is the barrel you're shooting out of choked or un-choked? I'm assuming it's choked because of your extreme accuracy with pellets. If it is, I'm thinking you could get better results shooting your slugs if the barrel was un-choked. I also read in another video that you took a LW .22LR barrel with a 1:16 twist and had it machined to fit your Huben. How were your results with that? I've though about purchasing the LW .22 Hornet barrel with a twist of 15.4:1 and having it machined to fit my rifle so I can ensure the .22 slugs from MP-Molds are achieving max stability. Thoughts? Thanks for the great videos. I like the new haircut.

Hi. You can find the answers to first two questions / comments in the video: All K1 stock barrels are choked including this one; I intend to replace it with un-choked for slugs. Yes, I machined a .22LR barrel for K1 version 1 and it works great (I actually still use that barrel). I also tested Hornet .22 barrel. It performs reasonable well but it needs slightly bigger slugs as it is also lightly bigger than the .22LR. Both of these barrel only work well in version 1 as only version 1 (in .22) has a magazine without grooves that get in the way and also don't fit the rifling of this barrels. The .25 is without grooves and this leads me to believe that maybe the latest version of the .22 might also be without grooves. But also if it is without, the diameter of the holes is most likely too small to use those barrels if they followed in the steps of the .25 version. The twist of 1:16" is enough to stabilize the MP mold (or any other) slugs as they are all limited in length be K1's magazine. No benefits comes from the Hornet's slightly faster twist according to my tests. Thanks for the hair comment :)

@@gregorkamensek3923 Do you know if Huben plans on manufacturing an after market un-choked barrel for the .25? What good is it to have a 100 FPE air rifle and not shoot slugs with it? I'm not opposed to shooting pellets. Their accuracy within 75 yards in a good air rifle utilizing a choked barrel is hard to beat. And I LOVE the concept of the hammerless firing system used by Huben. It seems like it would eliminate 60-65% of the harmonics experienced in an air rifle where the hammer slaps the valve to release air. Just curious if you know if they plan on making an un-choked version. Also, I still love to shoot my MP-Mold slugs in .25. If you can tame the harmonics of whatever rifle you're shooting them out of, and your air rifle has a good regulator set at a high pressure, you can achieve hole in hole shots within 50 yards. I know they're designed for choked or un-choked barrels, but I've found the groups to be tighter with un-choked. They shoot laser straight out to 200 yards. Thanks for all your hard work on the design and production of those. They took my gun to a new level of power, retained energy, and long range accuracy.

Also, I would say that Huben's week spot is that they have limited capability for accuracy testing begin form China. Also, they want to satisfy all customers with a single "configuration" and that is why the barrel is choked... I am working on putting in an un-choked poly barrel that will be thicker and longer. We will see what that does for accuracy. I can try to convince Huben to offer this as an option but I am not sure if they will be interested.

Hello Gregor, I assume you are committing most of your free time to the RTI project and so I don't expect you have time for this however, I have just been informed by a very kind gentleman that due to covid19 the 2020 .25 K1 will not now be available until August (best case), given that My time on this earth is not getting any longer, and because I have waited soooo long already, I have two options , to move on to another gun, or buy the current version, and hope to modify, (to shot slugs, well) so. can you please do a update on the .25 K1 including what you have done to yours,to this end (slug shooting) Pretty please. many thanks.

Hello. I have been shooting my K1 .25 quite a bit actually. I have a poly unchoked barrel in it. The reason why I haven't made any video yet is because I don't get very good results with slugs. I even made a new slug but I am still not happy with the results. The poly barrel is shooting with pellets extremely well though...

Well, there is no exact threshold real life, so I am trying to keep is simple by giving rounded numbers. Also, I use metric systems and sometimes I have a hard time calculating in my head while speaking a non native language... I tried one of the NSA slugs but as I mentioned in the video, I want to be fair to NSA as I am aware that Nick makes excellent slugs as the slugs I tried were not accurate in K1 but as mentioned, they were not designed for it. As for the velocity for accurate shooting with JSB King Heavy, I totally depends on your range. The pellets get unstable is shoot to fast with too high spin. They can be accurate at very high velocity at 50 meters but they loose stability at longer ranges giving terrible groups.

Well, it is not worse, it is the same as the .22 latest version. I guess you are referring to the power and in that regard, despite the fact that I agree with you and I would also love to see it being optimized for slugs, I think that this was a good decision by Huben as the most "complaints" i received about the .22 is that people do not want to hassle with slugs, the just want it to shoot pellets well... So despite my wishes, I think majority of users will be pleased.

@@gregorkamensek3923 I totally agree with you. Huben is thinking of spreading its sales. it is business at the end. But let's remember that Huben was one step ahead in the matter of long range air-gunning. Now, major pellet makers are at the verge of producing slugs. We know that slugs do much better than pellets on longer ranges. So, why would I go for a gun that can not shot slugs!

So this is difficult for me knowing it’s made in China. I’m highly against spending any money on anything from China. I’ve heard they have improved. I’d say it’s good as long as zero components are from China cause they mix their metals with crap cause they are cheap! I’d like some proof that this thing can take a beating. It looks bad ass but need more info on that subject.

Pellet diameters are not as sensitive as slug diameters. In case of this gun, it is more desirable that the pellets are made out of harder alloy... There is nothing I can do about the quality of manufacturing of pellets anyway :)
