Thanks Geo...The new trigger system works great...I used a thin cable to link my ball valve and my bolt... making the link flexible and there for it opens faster and much smoother... I designed it after the LAR Grizzly .50 cal... I still need a high pressure ball valve and a few things to hook it to my pump but that's roughly how it will look...it's still in need of a bipod and a scope... Oh and anything you see being held together with a hose clamp will be welded when it is finished...hey is that Airgun U I see on the computer screen!!! :]

It looks powerful.

What is the barrel ID?

Did you try the upper hole in the ball valve handle?

Ammunition?

answer to question #1 the barrel is off of an old .50cal muzzleloader...

answer to question #2 yes I did... but becuz it is so close to the pivot point it did not allow me to cock it with the bolt handle there was to much pressure...

answer to question #3 180grn round balls...with my current configuration GGDT says that with the 2,000 psi fill I will get right around 1,000fps and just over 400fpe
