Re: KOAH vs Ocean Rhino

Today I took delivery of a KOAH 52 Fatback and it is beautiful. John's new finish is the best on the market. Hope to use it this week. Thanks John

Will have to respectively disagree with you on that. Nope havent seen the gun nor need to. Phil Herranen's finishes are flawless.

But anyways congrats on a new gun!

How would the Rino be faster reloading then a track gun, it has a closed muzzle doesn't it?

So you still have thead the shaft through the muzzle?

How would that be faster?

I get they work good, but I just don't understand if you rigged a track gun a similar way why it would perform worse?

Re: KOAH vs Ocean Rhino

Shaft goes through muzzle from the back side with a single flopped shaft. As you are locking the shaft in you should be pulling the band back to load shouldn't take more than 10 seconds to reload and stone the same fish or another. The double tap video from team headhunter should be a perfect example.

Re: KOAH vs Ocean Rhino

ny er there are ways to have a semi open muzzle as well esp with a Biller.I use paralyzers so rear load is out.Check out my recent vid link in General to see actual footage of it being done(3 shots in under a minute) by an old fat guy.The muzzle is pried open just enough to allow the shaft to click in.I get about 1000 shots before it needs to be heated and closed a little to retain the shaft.

I'll check it out, I have my track guns so they are open in the front few inches , so I lay the shaft on it and slide it on

I am pretty sure I could load my guns 3 times in less then a minute, if there was no mono

Re: KOAH vs Ocean Rhino

I think we need a speed shooting category in the next tournament! GoPro it... categories... Targets, Live Fish, and Seadogger's old ass flippers! (Sorry Jimmy... I could not resist )

In all seriousness it would be a lot of fun.
