Shot Show----2017

Saw this video last night. .50 cal air rifle that shoots a 250gr lead bullet at over 1,000fps (700ftlbs) and a 550 over 800fps. pump action (2" pump with 2lb stroke) and three shot mag.

Running number shows that the 550gr at 875fps would have over 900 ftlbs of energy at the muzzle and still over 700 at 100 yards, even with a crappy bc of .10

What a week...
 
Well, no one posted this yet, so....

Unfortunately, the first batches are selling well over the MSRP of $150. Not really worth $150 either, but if you like KAC products, the rollmark may warrant an extra few bucks to you.

Bolt carrier has 3 available for more than MSRP if interested:

Seemed like kind of a slow year.

I heard a lot of talk about how the up-and-down pace of the last 8 years kept companies from doing cool and innovative stuff. They had to pump guns and parts out the door just to keep up, or else they were neck-deep in overstock.

Maybe a little more even keel will let some companies try and distinguish themselves from the rest by innovating.
