Skout Epoch, How I tune V.K. 40grs at 1100fps.

[@stedyone1090]

I'm still learning my EPOCH. So far so good.👍 Thanks for sharing.

[@AirSniper-SongV]

Are you shooting .30cal factory barrel?

[@juanruiz7640]

Amazing . You are on another level Song . The rifle is incredible also . That’s the hardest hitting 22 cal I have seen in air rifles .

[@AirSniper-SongV]

Thank Juan, We need to meetup one day and shoot at the open Grove shooting range.

[@juanruiz7640]

@@AirSniper-SongV yes we do . Sorry I haven’t reached out to you. I’ve had a health issue. But almost ready to go out there.

Another great video. In depth technical tuning info and modification tips. Very useful information. Nice shooting man so fun to watch. At 9:23 you said it was a hard hitting gun and would do some damage. That thing would be great for hunting and pest/predator control. Matt Dubber made a video when his special addition impact came out. It was an 800mm .22. And the way he explained the B.C. of the slugs was that at 290 yards his power and velocity was half what it was at the muzzle. I figure that means if you had a coyote at the same 100 yard range the slug would hit him somewhere north of 900fps. Basically a point blank shot from a good 22lr pistol. That's one lights out varmint! I'm really glad you take the time and risk to push the limit man. We all get to see and learn! Can't wait to see what more you get from this gun. I'm sure you will make the most of it. Thanks

[@AirSniper-SongV]

Thanks for the kind words. What so impressed me about this gun is that it’s so consistent with velocity and no POI change day after day. And I do believe this gun still have more to give when it come to power.

[@dannywarren5204]

Thanks for the video... so obviously the skout barrel wont perform at this level then? Be nice to see the kit and just how you got the barrel to fit.. very impressive

[@antomarkic7190]

How many effective shots do you have at that power? What is the volume of the bottle, how much hpa do you fill the bottle, I see that the regulator is a little more than 2000 psi. I am interested in calculating the efficiency. Thank you

[@AirSniper-SongV]

I’ll not sure how many shots per fill. I will found out next time I’m out shooting. My bottle is a 700cc and fill it up to 4500 psi. My reg set about 2300psi.

[@hotchihuahua1546]

I am learning mine only having it for a month now and do not regret the investment . You are way ahead of the game as I have seen you shoot the Skout Epoch . Your groups in your past videos have been excellent and impressive . The explanation of the dwell time is something I have not tried . Thanks for sharing that information . In a short period of time and just under 500 rounds of JSB 50.15 grain Diabolo pellets I am shooting better groups that my Impact did, even with the thousands of rounds of different slugs . To many issues with the Impact with lots of time spent tuning contributed to this and I do have it finally dialed in and somewhat reliable . 🤞 My 30 cal Skout Epoch with a 35” barrel and a Donny FL Emperor shoots sub MOA at 100 yards . At home , the Donny FL moderator is only 106 db and I am limited to 40 yards . I can shoot literally one hole in a 5 shot group . I mean one hole ! It’s pin point accuracy and it’s funny to say , it’s almost boring! Lol It’s a phenomenal platform ! I don’t thing the entire Airgun world has grasped how good the Skout Epoch really is , but you have my friend ! Keep those videos coming . 👍👍

[@AirSniper-SongV]

HotC, Totally agree with you between the Epoch and Impact. The Impact need a lot of upgrades parts to get them to shoot good on higher power. Keep up the good work and share your progress on the Epoch. Happy shooting and be safe.

[@surreallife777]

I'm thinking about purchasing the 22 caliber exclusively shooting slugs. In terms of shot count, energy at the Target, accuracy which gun do you prefer? The one thing I heard is that the Skout is more reliable and needs less maintenance. What's your opinion? Opinion?

[@juanchoherranz3239]

Hi Song, how are you? Thank you for your videos. May I ask what is your favorite scope? Thank you!

[@wendellscott861]

You are awesome with your new toy. I have to get me one someday🤣.

[@AirSniper-SongV]

Thanks Scott, Love the Epoch and this gun hold zero every time, unlike the Impact. I very like how Skout designed the barrel tensioner system on their gun. Two thumbs up 👍 👍👍👍

[@sightpcp]

Amazing. Every time

[@AirSniper-SongV]

Thank you 🙏!!

[@richs.9283]

I'm curious what is the most powerful. 22 cal pcp you have? Which ever, how powerful is it?

[@varmintknockers]

The Skout sounds really good shooting at 1,100 fps with a 40 grain .

[@AirSniper-SongV]

Thanks Dale, Your 40grs slugs did an amazing job with those lemons 🍋 💥

[@BT-st4ho]

How does the rifle hold his tune? Does it shoot still good? Is the rifle reliable for you sir?

[@AirSniper-SongV]

Yes, still hold the tune as long you don’t mess around with the regulator pressure. Out shooting other day, nothing less than 80 yards and the longest shot was at 372 yards. 🐿️ Gun is very reliable as along as you keep the air pressure off the regulator when the gun is not in use. ( factory recommended )

[@BT-st4ho]

@@AirSniper-SongVthat is great to hear! What do you mean by ‘as long as you don’t mess with the regulator’? Is the regulator sensitive for adjustments up and down for switching through different tunes? 372 yards is an long way my friend. Im very curious about there new slug barrel.

[@AirSniper-SongV]

@@BT-st4ho What I was saying, if you get the gun tune and you’re happy with the tune and don’t make any adjustments to the gun. The more you shoot the more the gun will be more consistent. Also spoke to the owner of Skout yesterday and I will do a video on SLUG barrel in .25cal shortly

[@BT-st4ho]

@@AirSniper-SongVlooking forward to the video. Hope the barrel got an epoxy layer around it.

[@projectmayhem2330]

Amazing!! Can you get those results with the factory barrel ?

[@chrisfigueroa3361]

Awesome wow 1100fps 40 gr vk 🤯 dam that gun is accurate hard hitting to wow man great job thanks for sharing bsafe buddy 👍

[@AirSniper-SongV]

Thanks Fig, Got to love those 40grs at 1100fps.

[@dougiefresh3767]

Lol! Why do you have your .22 putting out more energy than the .30 caliber?

[@AirSniper-SongV]

Man, this gun have more to give when it come to power. Their valve system is top notch. I hope you get one for yourself soon. Until then happy shooting and be safe!!

[@DocMustafa]

Awesome shooting! Ok so which is more accurate? Impact or Epoch?

[@AirSniper-SongV]

🤔 about the same….however Epoch have batter barrel tensioning system than the impact from the factory standpoint.

[@Fubar684]

Those lemons didn’t stand a chance.

[@AirSniper-SongV]

LoL, I wish is something else (🐿️) instead of lemons.

[@James-mt5cf]

I’ve seen your videos on your skout. Why would you put a crappy junk FX liner in any gun. Including an FX product. The first thing I did when I owned those guns is get rid of the barrels and get good ones. But you see you don’t understand what how to make a barrel that you already have in your gun a precision shooting barrel. Just buy a barrel you have someone for it to become an issue that you think that’s all it is and that’s where you’re wrong. You have no idea how to properly lap and polish a barrel. And there’s a lot of videos out there showing you how to do it but you see a guy like me learned from the best and I know exactly the tricks you need to use to get that gun to shoot precision groups.
