AR15 pellet gun

I have the encore which should work perfect. I'm really eager to try this out with some powder. ?

+1 I think I've just found a new project.

I saw this listed in the last Sportsman's Guide I got.

Looked interesting. Looks even MORE interesting after seeing what you have done with it.

Maybe I'll have to get me one or two of 'em.

Made up 5 of them today. Found my good camera, and set up a board at 15 yds this time. I didn't have a good rest and called both of the flyers. Still accurate and powerful enough at that distance to pass completely through the board.

I saw that too. Went through the checkout process to see what it would cost to buy one of them deivered to my door. Pretty expensive with shipping and handling.
I might be making some for a whole lot less.

Wonder if you could make one out of brass bar stock and add a small piston? Don't know what the back pressure would be on something like this though.

just found this thread.... super cooool idea!!!

got to make some of these.... can't wait to chrony pellet speed.
with it passing through boards easily, energy is probably over 30ft lbs.

Now Ive got something else Ive got to get around to making, thanks. That is really cool though Ive heard of people boring out pistol rounds to use larger primers and loading wax bullets to practice w/ revolvers. I know where some flying rats might get to try out the receiving end of some of those.

Dennis, any further updates? All the bugs worked out?

awesome... this is better than a normal 22cal ar but i think it will cost more cause of the round. if you do the math one 223 round can make it into 3 x 22 cal round. hmm..

I'm not sure what you mean by "cost more." Its basically a single shot .22 cal pellet rifle using a 209 primer and reusable .223 case/chamber adapter. How much are 209 primers and 22 cal pellets per shot?
