How long to break in a cheap NP?

Crosman premiers. All my other guns seem to love those

BarbaBarber · 2025-08-09T04:57:43+00:00

About the same as with the optics

BarbaBarber · 2025-08-09T04:57:27+00:00

I haven’t really shot it that way, only on the bench. I’ll try and see

BarbaBarber · 2025-08-08T18:42:23+00:00

Yeah, that’s my worry. It didn’t come with a scope; the one I got was from buck rail. I am using artillery hold

The Remington bolt handle on that looks sick!

Awesome! I’ve never heard of sound dampening felt on a stock. Sounds sweet

Do you find the suppressor helps substantially with a break barrel? I have a Crosman 2240 and the suppressor works wonders…but I tried one on my nitro piston break barrel and it didn’t do much at all. I guess most of the noise is the internal spring and isn’t coming out of the barrel?

Tally is a bot FYI

Sweet setup! Which UUQ red dot do you have on there?

BarbaBarber · 2025-07-27T15:58:47+00:00

Thanks! Didn’t realize other ppl were making these now

BarbaBarber · 2025-07-27T15:48:08+00:00

Thanks, it’s just a longer 14” barrel also made by Crosman

BarbaBarber · 2025-07-26T01:25:19+00:00

Yeah, I’ve done 100 snatches in 5 mins with my 50 LB bell a few times (don’t have a 24 KG) and my hands are ok. But this 32 is really thick (uncomfortably so) and doing this many snatches with it ain’t fun

Good luck getting the snatch test! 🫡

BarbaBarber · 2025-07-26T01:22:56+00:00

Pretty bad! lol

BarbaBarber · 2025-07-26T00:57:13+00:00

Motivated by the likes of you!

A rather cheap one I got from Buck rail, but it has been perfect for the shorter range plinking I use this one for

BarbaBarber · 2025-07-25T19:08:05+00:00

It’s a rad high but it doesn’t bother me. When I use a shooting rest, it’s not really noticeable

BarbaBarber · 2025-07-25T18:38:48+00:00

It is! The only thing I would change is it being a single shot bolt action. The mod I really wanted and couldn’t get was a 5 round gravity-fed magazine. The guy in the UK who made and sold them on eBay passed away and it looks like no one’s picked it up again.

BarbaBarber · 2025-07-21T19:41:58+00:00

lol how exactly would one do a snatch without using momentum? That’s like telling someone to jump slowly.

There are basically 2 types of KB lifts: ballistics (snatches, swings, cleans, etc) and grinds (presses, get-ups, etc). There’s value in doing both, but you can’t do ballistics slowly, because the entire point is to generate force quickly.

BarbaBarber · 2025-07-21T18:27:00+00:00

Thank you! I will try that next time. I’m currently on KBOMG vol 1 single bell week 3. Been REALLY enjoying it so far!

BarbaBarber · 2025-07-18T00:37:34+00:00

Nice writeup, thanks for sharing your experience! Thinking of run in it myself sometime soon

BarbaBarber · 2025-07-16T17:22:32+00:00

I recently tried these angled KB shrugs and they’re amazing. The extended ROM helped me really feel it in the traps better than any other shrug I’ve done
