Crash72 Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 I finally got around to designing my perfect Theoben Rapid .25 with Adrian from A&M Custom Gunsmiths! It's a beast throwing the Barracuda 31 grain pellets 900 fps averaging around 50 ft lbs! I haven't grouped it yet at 100 yards but at 50 I'm getting clover leafs when I do my part. The corvids hate it. It has taken 3 months in the making but worth the wait. Anyway, just thought that I would share it with you. Hope you're all well. Next on the list is a Sumatra 2500cc.

Brooksy789 Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Looks the really nice especially finished in the green. Hope you have many years of enjoyable shooting with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick miller Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Hmm, the stock isn't my cup of tea (not that you care!) but the rest of it looks bob on. Out of interest, who did the stock for you as I could do with having my TTR reworked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dekers Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 Each to their own and good luck to you, but I simply don't get it! OK, Theoben Rapid .25 throwing the Barracuda 31 grain pellets 900 fps averaging around 50ft lbs and the corvids hate it. Do you seriously need this for Corvids!? Is that it or did you have something else in mind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice Crash , it will be well worth the wait, i have grown to love my daystate air ranger .22 fac @37fpe with bis mag pelletts is very accurate and hard hitting out to 75--80 yds.along with my kalbrigun cricket .22 @26fpe which is my nv fac airgun these are my most widely used fac airguns good luck with the .25 Crash and enjoy it.!!!! atb brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash72 Posted September 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) Thanks Brian. I'm loving it! Glad your enjoying the Cricket. I'm thinking about one in .22. Nothing to get Dekers. I love air rifles, there a passion of mine and I have always wanted a .25 FAC. Long range vermin shooting and target shooting out to 100 yards = a lot of fun times.

Richo85 Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 Nice one crash. To get that from an fac air very good..I understand your from notts as we have a mutual friend in John from action pigeon. I'm waiting on my .22 huntsman fac 30 ft to come..hopefully tomoz..im from Derby so very close..maybe if you fancy I've got a little bit of land ideal for fac if you fancy join me me for a shoot..

Crash72 Posted September 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 Hey Brett, Sounds good to me. I'm in the process of deciding on a .22 FAC air. The Wolverine B or C are at the top of the list at the moment although the Sumatra Stinger is awesome. You will love the Huntsman at 30 ftlb's, proper hunting gun. My Rapid is more of an ambush/hide/sniper gun. Send me a PM and it would be cool to shoot together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
