I want a big bore. Anybody have one?

#1 Post by Stratocaster »

Hey guys.

I've been a shooter of pellet guns since I was a kid. But I've read recently of the availability of big-bore pellet guns from custom makers.

I want one! I'm in Canada, so these things are hard to come by.

Does anyone have one for sale, or know where to get one?

Those Quackenbush rifles rock.

Go to the have/wants section

Hi Stratocaster, welcome :yawinkle:

I think that the only way you will get one is to build it yourself or have it custom built. Either way it is going to be costly.

I want to build one myself so I was checking into the cost of the materials. :shock: Totaly shocking :shock:

Right now I am experimenting on a bigbore design for low pressure. (waiting on parts right now) I hope to have some results and photos by the end of the week.

Metalmunch,

Thanks - yah, I didn't imagine they'd be too cheap. I might give it a try myself with some materials I have, but I'm not sure if I have all the technical know-how to give it a real go.

Jez, can you PM me with some information? I am definitely interested.

JezX, can you tell us more of your bigbore guns and the performance you have to date?
I as well am a bigbore fan. You go through air like crazy so recently received a compressor that will solve this trouble.
A friend in the US sent me a little 4 stage Walter Kidde military surplus flame thrower compressor from a Korean fighter jet.
This compressor will make 4500psi with ease.
I am running it for testing on my mill and plan on an engine for portability as I can.
Big Bores need big air...... sure are fun to shoot eh!
At present playing with a 'Condor' homebuilt 9mm doing 160fpe, 150fpe with 000 buckshot.
Take care,
Walter.....

soon i'll have some pic's . the 50 cal is guna be sweeeet , i think you'l love it . the 9 mm i have run on 2000psi . f/s get in the 800-900 and down with 60gr . about 15 shots at good speed , i never used the 110gr i'd prolly have to adjust for less shots .
i use big air tubes for my bigbores 1''id 21''long thats alot of air . the 50 cal will have a 30'' / 7/8'' volume tube . at 3000psi . i don't have 4500psi capibility ( damn). i wish i did ,make the 50cal alot nicer .
. i'm just finishing up the stock , i wish i could explan more but you'l have to wait and see.
