Just bought one. Will be delivered tomorrow. I bought the 50 cal 22 inch. After looking at the fpe and fps the 50 cal made sense for my needs. I bought the S45 a while back and with it jamming all the time I believe the Megladon in dual tanks will give us a reliable multi shot big bore
How are you liking your new .50? I was really wishing they would have made the S45 more reliable but it's still having issues so I'm looking at the Meg in .50
@Matthew-wn8oq love it. Zero issues with cycling. Only draw back is you have to count your shots until empty. I wish it would lock out or something. Other than that I would definitely recommend the Megladon
@@JASONBLOOD-v1r you see the accuracy on the video. It’s enough for hog hunting. But regulator will lose 1/3 power. So when you face to a huge hog. Which is more important? Group from 1.5 inches change to 1 inch. Or more 1/3 energy? That’s why most of bigbore pcp in the world without reg . In fact only AEA have 2 bigbore gun have reg. Because they are for Benchrest competition.Different configurations for different purposes are truly professional!
@ShootTechSysteminc B&W s 45/ AEA Challenger Elite .35/45./50/51 / Challenger pro .35/ Zeus .58/.72 can have a regulator put in them and other companies do as well ....Western Air rifles semi automatic .357 and .452....etc
That is the short-barreled version, though, right?So you might get it close to another 100 feet per second out of it, which would be ideal.I guess I was justhat's all you.Get 900 feet per second by the 300 grain.Projectile you're good to go
I have watched a lot of videos about using these air rifles as self-defense. 45 caliber and below are your best options because of the magazine. For hunting 45 and above because of fpe. When it comes to yards, the caliber fps or fpe don't matter past 50 yds. The drop rate is so dramatic. 50 yds is even pushing it, but it is possible.
Part of the reason i was interested in pcp is the noise..if i want to take a second shot but you just scared away every animal in 5 miles...I take it its just as loud as a firearm then by peoples resposes ive read...hahaa
I'm going to need MUCH MUCH MORE SPEED FROM THAT THING before I ever take it seriously. At 700 fps and some change it shows that it is still too weak and is not ready to be released until it pushes WAY MORE. Comeback when the lowest speed is 1100 fps or more, till then it's a HARD PASS.
53 Foot Pounds of Energy (FPE) is considered Lethal. This puts out 400+ FPE at max power with a slug half an inch thick. It will travel 3 Football Fields of length in 1 second.... Yes i would say if you shot a home intruder with this thing they would probably need to call the Mourge, not the Paramedics 😅
dont listen to what this dumbass says YESS IT GOES THROUGH A CAR DOOR I ALREADY TRIED IT!!! used both my Aea M50 .50cal and this megaladon airgun which SUPRISINGLY was a bit more powerful in the forst mag than my m50 (i had only filled m50 to 3500psi where as the megaladon we filled to 4500 psi) and yet BOTH did very devastating to my boys good ole 2014 chevy silverado (wants an insurance check since hes gettin another car😂😂) through the front out the back the first side and in thru the front and BIG mountain peak on the back. so to answer your question bro YES THEY ARE ALL DEVASTATING!!! use em and care for them as though they were actual firearms these are NOT to play with weve also shot down som yotes, 2 deer, 7quails, and 1moose THEY ARE POWERFUL BROTHA!!!
Just got mine...filled up to 4000 psi and got valve lock. Had to shoot whole magazine for it to get up into the 700s. Not what I was expecting, I don't know how you got your's to work at that pressure, mine is more like 3500 psi. Useless
Thank you for the feedback, what information is it you are looking for? And as most vids that are chrono and shooting not very exciting to make. What do you think I could do to make it less boring? Always have the ability to do better. Thanks again for the feedback
Wasn’t boring, and it was informative. Thanks for testing this so that we can have an idea as to the performance. I agree with the earlier comment about the need to regulate this gun. That would probably help with the accuracy too, but would lower the shot count unless the power was tuned down.
Thanks for testing. Would like to see velocities with 196gr on this caliber.
First shot was 361.89 FPE shot 8 was 215FPE that's a monster Slug you was shooting nice to see the mags are good size!

My s45 in 357 has never jammed.
@@philipfarias3448 it seems to be hit or miss with the S45. I'm glad you got a good one

@brian3.2 great to hear! Thanks
Great video it was so very thorough and informative ... 👍🏿
I think aea should regulate all their guns, the fps drops every shot by quite a bit with one tank, two tanks wasn't as bad
which big bore gun with regulator?
I agree they should all be regulated
@@JASONBLOOD-v1r which bigbore gun in the world have regulator?

Awesome job Pete !!!
Great video! Need a 5-8 yd Gel test 👍preferably in 50 cal
Nice! I have been thinking about grabbing this exact configuration

Ballistic gel tests please ❤
Takes alot of air to push those monsters. Interested in seeing the difference with lighter lead. Well done. Very intriguing unit

With the 2 tanks it is more consistent for sure
What do ya think? Do you like it with the 15" or do you think a longer barrel would be better?
Is there any difference between the 15inch and 22inch besides barrel length?
Great vid! What's the folded length?
It's non regulated right?So you can't turn the power up even if you want it
Is it real loud,or loud but not too bad
Part of the reason i was interested in pcp is the noise..if i want to take a second shot but you just scared away every animal in 5 miles...I take it its just as loud as a firearm then by peoples resposes ive read...hahaa
Could this stop a home intruder?
That is a beast
I'm going to need MUCH MUCH MORE SPEED FROM THAT THING before I ever take it seriously. At 700 fps and some change it shows that it is still too weak and is not ready to be released until it pushes WAY MORE. Comeback when the lowest speed is 1100 fps or more, till then it's a HARD PASS.
I mean to be honest that's not much less the a 45 cal pistol.
So 230 grain at 800 fps vrs 290 grain at 750.
@ericsanders2388 True, however I've never been a fan of 45 so I'm still gonna have to pass on that thing.
One question, well it kill like a real fier arm let's say a hone burglar??
53 Foot Pounds of Energy (FPE) is considered Lethal.
This puts out 400+ FPE at max power with a slug half an inch thick.
It will travel 3 Football Fields of length in 1 second.... Yes i would say if you shot a home intruder with this thing they would probably need to call the Mourge, not the Paramedics 😅
400 fpe ..... Thats powerful ..But
700 fps is Too slow for the gun to perform its best
Seems lik most other air rifles like 850-950 fps ?? Am i wrong?
Either lighter ammo or a tune kit is sorta my thoughts...
What do you think ?
Or a longer barrel hell yeah
That’s legit 👍
Can a penetrate car door
Probably not you would have to get up to around 860 fps.

how loud is it stock? do you need ear protection? backyard friendly? i like the compact size would hate to put on a Donny FL
Loud
Why would an airgun launching a chunk of lead nearly the weight of a .45 ACP at basically .45 ACP velocities be backyard friendly? 🤔
I dont understand why it's not as strong as the B&W Bin tac?
Just got mine...filled up to 4000 psi and got valve lock. Had to shoot whole magazine for it to get up into the 700s. Not what I was expecting, I don't know how you got your's to work at that pressure, mine is more like 3500 psi. Useless
Thus called valve lock
At 100yrds.its only moving maybe 500fps!😮
500 fps is 340.909 miles per hour. Is that not fast enough to do what it needs to do?
You take a year to shot man 😠 😡 😤
Boring, uninformed
Huh? What do you mean uninformed?
Huh?
