My Viking!!

[mrkbik]

This is my new Viking #776 that I got over the summer. She now has a CCM no-rise, eye covers, Dye sticky 3s, and a 14" ultralite. I will have more pictures shortly.

wow, thats a sexy color for a vike. mine is on the way, got a sapphire blue one :D

[pito189]

I wanna see new pictures. NEW PICTURES, bring um on. :) :) :D

What input pressure do Vikings run at? What size tank do you use, and what kind of efficiency numbers are you getting?

[mrkbik]

I have a preset tank 68/3k and I get about 1200-1400 shots off it. The Vikings come with the LPR set at 85psi but the optimal pressure is 68-72psi. People have gotten it down to the 50s though.

[mrkbik]

I cant upload my other pictures to hunt101.com, darkviking, or pbnationmagazine because they are apparently too large. I also can't add them as attachments to this post because they are again too large. Any suggestions?

[jdev]

email them to me (joed@media3.net) and I will host them for you.

[mrkbik]

Ok, I sent them. Thanks by the way.

[afrankart]

I will try to post some pics of mine soon. I run a Dynaflow @ 550, but they can run anywhere from 400psi to 850 psi with no problems.

68/4500 I got about 1800 shots with paint off of a full fill today, and that is without the lpr being broken in. When they are broken in, efficiency is supposed to improve, and the lpr can be lowered which also improves efficiency.

[mrkbik]

Yes, and also when the Sidewinder and lpr are broken in, consistency bets much better. When i first got it, my consistency was about +/-6 and now it is at about +/-2 or 3. Vikings are great...

[mrkbik]

Well, as you can see I put anpother pic on but it is HUGE. I'll try to make it smaller and put it on again.

Tell me about it, mine isn't even broken in yet, and with evil and an ultralite I saw no more than 5fps total fluctuation over the chrono over 15 shots.

It is really nice being able to chrono in at 296 and not having to worry about shooting hot.
