    General question about regulators

    The instructions provided by Huma, specifically for the Hatsan regulator, show two methods for venting the regulator. One is to remove the o-ring and leave a tiny gap between the air reservoir and the original valve The second method is to carve a notch along the valve threads and on the air...

    General question about regulators

    So, I understand how most pressure regulators works, what I cant figure is why some (most) needs a vent hole. Why they need to be vented? I just bought a Huma regulator for my BT65, waiting for the shipping, and in the meantime I want to FULLY understand how they work and what could happen if I...

    I can't shoot with glasses?

    One easy way to adjust the ocular I use (dunno if it works with glasses): - set your parallax correctly for the distance you are aiming - look through the scope - close your eyes for a couple of seconds, but don't move your eye or head - open your eye and notice if the reticle is in perfect...

    Why do pellets "corkscrew" ?

    I finally found it! I stumbled upon it years ago and luckily is still online. This is a nice flash "simulator" showing this precession and nutation effect. http://www.arld1.com/nutation.html There are LOTS of other cool "simulations" too to understand better the theory behind airgunning.

    Helpful hopefully

    A couple of days ago I bought a level for other purposes but in the hurry I forgot to check it in the store. Needless to say the level is completely useless, even my iphone does a better reading...

    Best reasonable kit to clean gun and barrel

    For the barrel I use the same method linsfreak described. An old nylon guitar string and some cotton patches. Cheap and very effective.

    .25 Marauder Shroud Torque and Accuracy

    Thanks for sharing this! I'm getting terrible groups with my BT65, but I use a normal sound moderator, not a shrouded one, I wonder if the same applies.

    Iphone 6 scope cam feedback ?

    Make sure the iphone isn't too close or too far from the ocular lens. Put the iphone camera lens at the same distance your eye would be as if you were shooting normally. When everything is installed correctly, point your gun at some even color object, like a white wall, at close distance. Only...

    Iphone 6 scope cam feedback ?

    It's Hatsan BT65, .22, without any regulator. That was my first time using the Seben mount so I guess there is room for improvement. I noticed a clearance between the seben mount arm and the top part of the rifle butt stock of about 1 inch. Maybe I can squeeze a piece of rubber or something to...

    Iphone 6 scope cam feedback ?

    Yesterday I tried my new iphone 6 mounted on a Seben DKA2 mount and the result was so-so. I'm probably messing something up but the mount with the iphone shakes too much making impossible to see the pellet flight or impact. The quality isn't that good too, the resolution goes way down at 240fps...
