Nick Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 Are they for real with the price of these things? That is ridiculous......I'll stick with my Knight. Ultimate Firearms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 Re: Ultimate Firearms Yep, they are some boomers. There is no way I would shoot some of their loads. One of the guys shoots 400 yards with his UM. He is shooting 5 Pyrodex 50 gr pellets with a 300 gr Bonded SST! That thing has to kick like a mule. This makes 2500 fps with a 300 gr bullet or 3100 with a 180 gr bullet. Ouch! To imagine what the recoil is like, here are some numbers: it generates in the neighborhood of 108 ft/lbs of recoil energy with 26 fps of recoil velocity! A 30-06 with 165 gr bullets has 18.8 ft/lbs of recoil energy and 11.9 fps of recoil velocity. A 338 Win Mag with 225 gr bullets has 31.9 ft/lbs of energy and 14.7 fps. A .375 H&H Mag with 300 gr bullets has 39 ft/lbs of energy and 16.2 fps. The .458 Win Mag with 500 gr bullets has 53.6 ft/lbs of energy and 18.6 fps. So, this bad boy kicks. Here are some recoil numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
