Crosman 600 power

[darrenpetts]

What power does an elderly gun like this actually put out? I've read the blurb on several places on the net but after putting the combro on mine I'm rather embarrassed that it makes the power it does as it's more than a bit better than suggested. In fact I have some detuning to do and some experts are way off the mark as to what's possible!
I could do with a guide as to what yours is running at please.

I have owned a couple of these along with the single shot MKI version, they are quite capable of 6 ftlb, by far the best C02 pistols I have tried over the years

Crosmann at its 1960s best IMO

using barrel from 2260, bulk fed, valve reworked.
does 590's to 600. may not be legal in the UK?

A healthy 600 will shoot crosman 14.3 Wadcutters at about 385 fps. They can be bulked up and fitted with a 12" barrel for more power. Hell on rats when set up that way. RB
