This article preserves the historical First Strike FSC rifle-setup presentation and its test conditions.
The First Strike FSC rifle setup and Z.68 projectiles
Welcome to the Z-RAM YouTube channel. Daniel introduces his FSC rifle setup and the results it produces with Z.68 projectiles.
The rifle setup consists of the FSC, a 16-inch Lapco barrel, an HP system with 300 bar and a Ninja regulator specified at 1,300. The exact bore dimension and the regulator's pressure unit are unclear in the subtitles.
There is also a 12×50 scope and a few other small additions: the handle shown here, a flashlight, a laser pointer and a red dot.
The stated barrel difference and six-shot capacity
With the Lapco barrel—the exact bore dimension is unclear in the subtitles—the first projectile in this test did not need to be loaded upright as with the FSC's standard barrel. All the projectiles could be loaded normally and used normally.
The setup therefore allows six shots without having to give up the last shot.
More about this can be seen in the previous video.
An export valve was announced but not installed in this test
As announced in Daniel's previous video, an export valve for the FSC will be available soon. The stated benefit is the best results with a long barrel, for example the 16-inch barrel.
The export valve is not installed in this test setup.
The video now moves to the chronograph for some shooting tests.
Chronograph test: readings in feet per second
At the chronograph, the instrument is set to FPS, so it measures in feet per second.
The weapon is loaded and armed for this test. Daniel turns on the laser pointer, and a few shots follow.
The first reading is 376. Unfortunately, the laser pointer's battery is now empty.
The following readings are 367, 359 and 351. A check follows: yes, the projectiles are all in here somewhere. One is stuck back here.
Oh yes, there will be a bit of trouble.
376 FPS with the FSC rifle setup and Z.68 projectiles
The rifle setup and Z.68 projectiles achieved 376 FPS. A corresponding approximate energy in joules is also stated, but the number is unclear in the subtitles.
The projectile is pointed, not round. This means that all the impact energy is concentrated at the front of the tip.
The Z-RAM shop and the announced export-valve comparison
A link to the Z-RAM shop is in the description.
Daniel will soon make videos with the export valve added to this rifle setup, and more joules will follow.
Anyone who wants to see that is invited to give a thumbs-up and subscribe so they do not miss anything.
Daniel from Z-RAM says goodbye.
