Hogleg Hunter Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 I was entertaining myself in the sports dept at Wally World while waiting for my wife. I saw a new 1886 lever action that shot real lead!! (.177 pellets). My next thought was how to short stroke it. That looks like an awfully long throw.

Colorado Coffinmaker Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Nah. That's strictly "Gamer" lever throw already No need to shorten it. Pumps up Pneumonia-er-Pnumatic chamber just fine. Little too much drop at the comb though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Meadows,SASS#28485L Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Short stroke might be possible, but I doubt that you will ever find anyone that would want to try. J.M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Jack, SASS #77862 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 With a drop like that it's going to kick like a mule! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raton Rick Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Will the timer pick up the shot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkansas Harper SASS #33169 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 If the timer cant pick up the shot, and spotters cant see the hit, all doubt goes to the shooter. With pellet pistols and that rifle, you could be the fastest clean shooter at any match. Harper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chancy Shot, SASS #67163 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I have found that after shooting cowboy loads, pellet guns have unmanageable recoil. Chancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
