Title: FPS on American Classic
Post by: WhisperRidge on July 21, 2011, 05:36:56 AM
I was wondering if the advertised 600 fps was after 10 pumps? does anyone know how many pumps produce how many fps..etc?

with a stock 1377 about 15x or use a 4gr pellet 10 should do it
most shoot 525-550fps 10x 7.9gr pellet

If you follow the links in the links, you will see these ideas have been used before
I found them in my research.

Have fun.....safely.

Also, if you look up the manual for the first generation 1377 on crosman.com, you will see that this gun NEVER achieved 600 fps with a normal pellet. It was always in the 500 fps range.

Later generation 1377 manuals don't have the velocity numbers published.
