: First shot's on Argon
: kiwi January 08, 2009, 04:17:41 PM

HI...Got the Career filled to 200bar with Argon.
I put a few shots into a bit of thick ply wood on air
before I shot it empty. Then filled it with argon and
shot it at the same ply wood from the same distance 15m
useing JSB Stration jumbo pellets for both tests.
On argon you don't notice any diffrent's when shooting
but I dose penatrate 3 to 4mm deeper with the Argon.
More power wasn't the reasion for the argon I just have a endless
surrply of it for nothing and I'm just to cheap to buy another
scuba tank after mine failed test

You will see the diffrent's in the penatration in the pics.

I will try Nitrogen when I can get a bottle home.

It looks like you are shooting nails with your Career?

Peter,

Can you measure/give us the different penetration depths?

3 to 4mm extra penetration is quite a bit.   Keep on experimenting......

I measured the depths
AIR - 12/13mm penatration
ARGON - 15/16mm penatration
Diffrent's off 2/4mm
Avarage off 3mm
Shots were at 15m distance.
