WESTERN RATTLER 357 (part 2) Mr.hollow point accuracy test

[@tjwrongwaymead8374]

I really like it. I want the power and the 35 cal. And the semi auto part. But I already have big guns. It looks like a large rifle. Great video. Really interesting results

[@Giovanni-zc1lv]

Thanks for the follow up video with the follow up machine! Look forward to a chrony/accuracy vid with the 120 150 (yours) and 167 at 75! Appreciate your content!

That they nag is insane. Omg I like it

[@GregoryMcBride-qf7hx]

Fellow Michigander! I would love to test your mold with some aluminum magnesium silicon alloy , it’s a super ductile metal that will cause the slugs to expand super fast, but also goes super fast, and because it’s so ductile it’s most likely super easy on rifling, it’s a project I’ve been thinking about for a while, if your into it I could find the right allow for you and send some your way? I would love to see the results of this test! These slugs will go crazy fast

[@MichiganAirgunner]

If u want to send the alloy I would happily make some.. but I wouldn't send out my mold.. this mold it hard to get and i don't want to risk anything happening to it..

[@royweatherford64]

I recently replaced the 1/26 barrel that your using to the 1/20 slug barrel they offer and my groups went from about what your getting or close out of a majority of the slugs I tried to nearly touching holes . The barrel twist rate made a big difference in slug accuracy.

[@GA_Regulators]

Where do you find the replacement barrel

What is the product number for the 120 & 150 Lyman molds you're using please...

[@MichiganAirgunner]

I only use noe molds or accent molds.. the slug I made was a 174gr from noe.. when u put in the pins for the hollow point it makes them drop around 150gr.. everything else was mr.hollow point ammo

[@BouncyThrone]

I'm thinking about picking this rifle up. But I'm wondering how it shoulders? Is it front heavy, or rear heavy, is it about the same length as a 700 mm barreled impact with moderator? Thanks a lot..

[@BouncyThrone]

I was thinking about picking this rifle up. Can you tell me if it's front heavy or well balanced? How does it shoulder? And is it about the same length as a 700 mm impact? Every platform can have issues, But this rifle has a high complexity configuration. How do you forsee the long term reliability of this platform being..? Thanks man

[@MichiganAirgunner]

It's a little heavy but when shouldered it feels really good very well balanced.. I can't compare to the impact because i own one... Size is manageable.. so far the only real issue that I'm aware of is the valve leaking..

[@charlesghant3230]

Hey bud so do you prefer the Rattler .357 air rifle or the AEA challenger .357 air rifle? Meaning, if you had to choose just one of the two which way would you go and why? Thanks.

[@MichiganAirgunner]

If I have to pick one I would go with the rattler because it's more versatile.. you can adjust the power for small game or big game and it's not that hard to do..

[@charlesghant3230]

@@MichiganAirgunner Totally makes sense. And judging only by looking at the videos Rattler seems to be a little more easy to move around with versus the Challenger. But that 300 FPE from the Challenger is tempting indeed!!!

Good job bud,nice scope there! O gun too! 😆 Hope you get a good one!

[@bobbystevens789]

how do I set the psi to 180. I was told that I had to adjust the the tank aswell as the knoble under the stock. Shot a ten point at 50 Yards and could see the bullet hit neck through the scope. little slow set at 150 psi from manufacture. Any help would be Appreciated.

[@bobbystevens789]

I do not have the kick back that I see from your video.

[@MichiganAirgunner]

@@bobbystevens789 the reg is just above the tank.. u want to turn it counterclockwise just a tiny bit u will see the reg gauge at the back of the gun go up .. the u adjusted the the power wheel..

[@Oregon-airguns]

For some reason my fx Chrony sucks at catching speed when it’s on barrel. Put it on tank and it catches almost every shot. Maybe worth a try

That's some good shooting!

[@scottmcauley5781]

How do you like the Western Rattler .357 and how many shots on full power FPS an FPE? Then what's the highest FPE an FPS you can set it on to get the very most shots per fill? So example 140 Fpe × 50 shots..

[@MichiganAirgunner]

What I got was a max of 255 fpe with 150gr slug with the reg set to 170bar.. I got 8 full power shots. Will the reg set to 150bar bar I got about 30 shots with fx hybrids and pellets putting out 130-140 fpe

Looks like your own slugs are the best ;-)

Around 325 depending on the mold

@@bamoore65 I like showing what other peoples slugs can do but I cast all my own slugs for big bore.. just because of the money you save when shooting.. the only part that sucks is finding the right mold.. not all guns like the same ammo so the hunt for the right mold can cost some money.. but molds sell pretty quickly on the classifieds

@@MichiganAirgunner which mold brand you have better luck with?

[@drjbreland]

How does it compare to the BinTac B&W S45?

[@MichiganAirgunner]

The rattler is a 100% better gun then the s45.. u don't have to worry about mags exploding or buying a approved slugs.. it gets more shots and is much more accurate. If you're looking for a Simi auto big bore and have the money then I would take the rattler over the s45 any day

[@themikarenolds2910]

its a beast

[@dougiefresh3767]

That's the thing about a semi/fully air rifle... You can't take your time and shoot. I can almost guarantee you got that dime sized group shooting a bit slower. You was pulling that trigger pretty dang fast. Lol! Either way it was a good showing.

[@Oregon-airguns]

Who did you get that scba tank from?

[@cray-z7404]

Is it $2700 worth of rifle ???

[@MichiganAirgunner]

If you have the money to spend I think the build quality and the Simi auto function and the ability to shoot slugs and pellets is worth the money.. iv had then gun in freezing temps and completely covered in ice and it worked great. But you could get a gun that will work just as good for less. Just comes down to how much u want to spend on your hobby
