Looking for an ultra se in .177.

I’m looking at getting a FX Impact or Panthera. In my research it seems there are a few .25s and .30s for sale but I struggle to find .22s. In the world of competitive air guns and from a hunting perspective, is there a caliber I should aim towards? I like the .22s for increased number but f shots on a tank for iguana hunting here in FL. I’m just curious what pros and cons of the other calibers are. Would a .25 be best of both worlds, or the worst of both worlds? Thanks in advance!

I am looking to get an air rifle for pest control up to the size of foxes or coyotes. I like the idea of a pcp but I don’t have it in the budget to get a big tank or a compressor so I would have to a hand pump. I would need the gun ready for when I needed it, can you leave a pcp charged for an extended period time or would it damage it?

I got a gxcs4i refurb from fleabay. Hopefully that dont bite me in the rear. When it arived it looked as new as new can get. It made dead head test to 300 bar in 27 seconds and has worked flawlessly since. I bought a dual temp sensor, led lights, and an hour meter. I wanted to do as little structural mod to the case. I did drill a half inch hole in the back for wire access then installed a rubber grommet. Blue temp for h2o tank red for compressor head. Wood frame a saddle and enough wire length to easilt remove and also a filter added

To adjust my PCP rifles, I've always followed the methodology discussed and recommended many times on this forum, and honestly, it's worked for me. Since it worked for me, today I was at the club explaining this methodology to a shooter, and together we got the rifle working properly. So far, so good. But another shooter who was listening came over and immediately told me I was completely wrong.

The rifle in question is an FX King .22 with a 600 mm barrel. In my explanations, we start with a regulator at 75 bar, with the macro in position 13.

18 gr JSB pellets, and proceed with 3 group shots at position 13, another 3 group shots at position 14, and continue in this manner until reaching position 23. What I'm looking for is the smallest or closest group at 50 yards. At the 21 macro setting, we achieved near-perfect accuracy. We then used the stopwatch and measured the velocity at setting 21, which was 940 fps; at setting 22, it was 947 fps; and at setting 23, it was 948 fps. It was slightly increased with micro-adjustment, and the velocity did not increase.

From this, I deduce that with the macro in position 21 and making some micro-adjustments, the deviation can be slightly adjusted. In short, I copied my King's settings and applied them to this other shooter's. The differences are that mine, with the same pellet, prefers 937 fps, while this other guy's prefers 941 fps. And from 250 to 100 bar, I got 115 shots.


Well, I'm satisfied, yes, but this other shooter tells me I'm doing it very wrong, that I have a very low regulator and a soft hammer blow, that it's better to raise the regulator to 100/120 bar and have a stronger hammer, that I would get more shots, more consistency, that the regulator would work better, and I would recover faster. Honestly, I don't know if he's right, and I don't want to ruin my setup either, but I have a doubt. He's talking so confidently and he's getting me into trouble. Maybe he was just a conceited charlatan who wanted to brag about what he doesn't know.

Now I ask, which do you prefer? Would both settings work in theory, or which one is the correct one to achieve the desired FPS?

Low regulator and soft hammer.

High regulator and hard hammer.

I am sure lots of people have had these WTF moments.

Let me explain mine. I got a call from the farmer where I shoot pigeons and coyotes and he told me rats were coming into the new born calves holding area. It is a small barn with holding pans separating these new borns. This is the first time that rats are a problem at this location.

Needless to say, I was really excited with his bad news. I dropped by that late afternoon and had a look at the location and plan out the shoot for the night. We found entry holes from outside of the barn and the rats made tunnels inside the barn. I ranged the spots to be 5-15 yards where I could setup and shoot from. My HW100 and my Impact MK2 would be too much power for this small barn. I was going to use my Air Arm S510 .177 calibre, a 12 ft.lb rifle, but I am waiting for the O-rings to arrive in August as my fill tank was leaking due to old deteriorated O-rings.

My next low power gun is the Artemis PP700, a 22 calibre pistol/carbine conversion. It was shooting the 16gr pellets at 8 ft.lb. This would be a perfect tool for the task at hand. I mounted the Pard 008 on it and wend down to the farm at 9:30pm. Unfortunately, I haven't played with this carbine pistol for a long time and for some reasons, I couldn't get it to zero properly at 10 yards. My shots were jumping around the bullseye and I was getting frustrated and confused as to why it behaved like that. This gun was very accurate when I was playing with it back in the days. I guess things happened when I don't play with my tool.

Anyway, I went inside the barn at 10:15pm after the worker had finished his round for the night. The moment the lights went out, I immediately spotted rats coming in from the entry point. I scanned around the barn with my Pard 008 and I saw at least 10-12 rats running around, looking for food.

I was like a kid in a candy store, but couldn't have any sweets. I could only film them and see where they feed and roam about. I didn't want to take any shots because I couldn't trust my gun that night and I didn't want to damage any property and most importantly, not to shoot any calves by accident. I stayed for 30 mins and went home disappointed.

I texted the farmer the next day and told him my gun issue but I assured him that I will be back and dead rats will be the result.

I spent some time today inside my garage and set up the target box at 6 yards away. I shot at bullseye and of course the POI were scattering around no matter how much adjustments I did to the turrets with X and Y position. So I decided to remove the LCD and took 3 shots. Yup, the three pellets were in the same hole. Long story short, the problem was my LCD. Either it was dirty or something was causing the inconsistency.

Since this pistol is low powered, I can use it as is inside the barn for my rat shoot tonight.

Hopefully I will get some decent shots and some dead rats to show the farmer the next day. Stay tune.

If you see anything you're interested in hit me up and we can discuss details. I can send you any close ups of anything youd like. All are in excellent condition and well taken care of. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Paypal ff preferred. Venmo also ok. We can talk on the phone or text if you prefer as well. Not sure how long im gonna keep them up for sale. So if you like something id reach out soon. Theres a couple I dont really wanna let go of but life happens. So i gotta sell a couple. Have an awesome day!
Thanks for looking,
Phill

About Mac1 and my Benjamin, but he texted me a minute ago, and my rifle is officially in his hot little, talented hands!!!

He also said that a steriod @ 6 pumps is roughly equal to a stock 392 @ 8 pumps (+/- 13 foot pounds) and a steriod can be pumped 14 times for 23 foot pounds!!!

I'm definitely getting a chronograph to do a bunch of testing (playing around)

Let me know what you are interested in and I'll give you a price.

Otherwise $650 for everything you pay shipping.

Keep in mind bag itself is $75 and the mags come to a total of $550 at retail price.

Morning, all

Originally, I had thought perhaps that my CF tank was leaking. I would fill it up with the compressor and then some days later, use it to fill a gun and it would only fill to right at 3kpsi.
Today, I topped it off and it was near 4kpsi. Filled to just under 4500 and went to fill a gun. Simply will not go past 3k psi. Not on the tank gauge, nor the gun gauge. I know the gauge works because it showed near 4500psi when filling. Leaves the valve far as I can tell. Also tried another whip on it. Same thing.
Anyone hear of such before? I'd just bought this valve a couple years ago and has seen light use.
pic shown to see the type of valve and tank.

We have a .177 BRK Pathfinder up for trade. I have the bigger brother in a sniper XR which i use more right now. Not looking for anything specific just looking to feed the airgun addiction let me know what you have worst case I say no, this is what makes the airgun world go round. Its set at 150B getting 4 mags at 16FPE low setting is 12FPE.

What do you recommend for a .22 chamber flag that won't damage the breech o-ring? I'm currently using a weed wacker string but I don't really like it.

Hi.
Can anyone tell me what kind of pre-applied threadlocker e.g. Traxxas uses on their screws? That holds tight but doesn't lock up completely, and stays flexible and makes adjustments possible over time? It doesn't look like LocTite supplies any of this type of threadlocker, but clearly someone does. Anyone know or have any suggestions?

hello all
new to the site and have a question about buying scopes.
a good buddy of mine just got into this hobby a few months ago
we don't have any air gun shops here or within 4 hrs. of driving.
in any case, he just bought a new scope after watching the manufacturers video on the scope
along with reviews, the scope comes he is all excited opens the box
slides the plastic off the scope .
looks through the scope and his reaction was its cloudy.
i said lets put it on the tri pod and look down the yard, he said its not clear
its cloudy still,,, i look through the scope definitely cloudy not clear
like it looked in the video, then again they had a camera on a mount centered behind the eye box
so i turn the power up to 16x this is a 6 -24 x50 gen2
a dark eyebrow appears look away look back still dark turn the power down it goes away.
i said look through my old Hawke sidewinder that's about the same price as the gen2.
set it up on the tri pod he said wow what a difference he said same money i said within 100 bucks
so he calls the dealer to ask if he can swap it out.
comes back and says because i opened the box and looked through the scope its non returnable
i said to him how are you supposed to know there is no dealers to go see it in person
what kind of BS is that i called and asked what the problem is with swapping it out its brand new
he opened the box we both looked through it and to be honest its far from clear this supposedly has
German glass in a Chinese made element? i said regardless he don't want it and it was not mounted
best we can do is give you halfback, i said no now you pissed me off.
the way i see it call your credit card company tell them its not as described.
they refunded him and i said that was one dealer i thought you would never have an issue with
some dealers forget where they started, and its things like this i do not like to see or hear about
so how is one supposed to buy a scope when there is no dealer around?
no returns for just looking through it that is pathetic and gives me a bad taste in my mouth

Post your pic of the anniversary model.

Is anyone using the regulated Huben bottle adapter, and how is that working , so far.?
Also is anyone using the Huben with a 700 cc bottle , and how's the fit.
Any pic's would be great.

Hey all, I have a question about the regulator on my M60B. When I fill the tank the reg is maxed out just under the red zone. As I go through mags the reg pressure and accordingly velocities steadily drop. I have the big cf bottle on it so I'm not just rapidly draining the much smaller tube.

I haven't done internal work on it, swapped down a caliber and that's about it. I did have an external plenum on it but removed it to eliminate that variable as part of the problem. Any ideas why the regulator isn't regulating? For the record I'm not entirely sure where the reg is on this rifle but I do know how it's supposed to work and know that it isn't.

Any guidance here would be appreciated, thanks all.

Suitable for PCP air rifles, air pistols, paintball guns, and HPA tanks. It takes about 20 minutes for the compressor to fill a 0.5L tank from 0 to 300bars and 8 minutes from 200bars to 300bars.

In December I bought a very nice old Beeman. In the process of sorting out some accuracy the butt pad was shiny and kind of slick. It would fall out of my shoulder pocket if I didn't have a bit more pressure than normal on it. The slipping was a little bit of a nuisance but the gun was like new and I didn't want to rough up a pristine 42 year old butt pad on a relatively rare gun. I finally got fed up with the slipping and roughed up the pad with 60 grit sandpaper. That cut my groups nearly in half.

Having inconsistent shoulder pressure and possibly unnoticed slippage under recoil was killing my groups. Just something to think about.

Looking for recommendations for my new .25 AF Talon P.

Best smaller scope, will be using as a backpack gun when hiking so ideally something compact and effective to 50yrd.

Best moderator for sound reduction, have looked at DonnyFL Ronin, Talon Tunes own and the Air Force one, who has one of these on a Talon P and loves the Db reduction.

Any other Mods I should be looking at?
