    Stoeger XM1 Bullshark .177

    So I ordered one of these from Rich at Airgun Revisions and should be here this week. Topping it off with a Discovery 2-12x24 HD scope. Plan is to tune it lower around 10-12fpe for a sub 50yd critter gitter. Weight seems pretty good at around 6.5lbs, length is nice and compact with a working...

    Taipan No more Shorty

    So a couple months ago my 9 year old nephew was going to take his hunter safety course. My brother in law asked if I could bring some of my airguns for him to shoot and get the basics down more so than just on a Red Ryder he had. He has plenty of rifles but all are big guns I think .30-06, 7mm...

    Optics DNT Zulus 3-12 LRF

    Looking to sell my Zulus. It's a great scope but I'm just not a technological guy. Turns out I prefer a regular scope. Also the rats and mice I thought I was going to shoot I haven't seen any at all in multiple times of trying so no need for a night scope anymore lol. Scope has a few marks on...

    When did Monstrum start making nice things?

    I usually buy quality scope rings, caps and bubble levels for my scopes but recently bought a cheap Discovery scope. 2-12x24 HD for $160. The scope on my Taipan Long has MKM scope caps at $75 and lo pro billet bubble level which run around $50 and UTG PRO rings which are $50. I've paid more for...

    A surprise to be sure....but a welcome one

    Got up extra early this morning to get work done before church as we have a couple guys off. I figured I was gonna be there an hour and a half before sunrise I would check to see if there were any rats. I didn't see one anywhere. So that's cool I bought a NV scope for shooting rats lol. Anyways...

    American Air Arms Low powered Evol Mini tune

    Anyone tune the Mini down to a lower power than the usual 28-30fpe they come at? I'm getting close to tearing into mine and tuning for the 12-14fpe range and was curious of anyone has a good reg setting for that. Doubtful anyone has but thought I'd ask. And if not I'll be letting people know...

    N/A Cometa Fenix 400 .22

    Just got this in from Keystone Airguns and gotta say I'm impressed. The gun seems well made but not fancy which I really like. Compared to my HW30S I'm afraid to use it and get it banged up. This gun quality wise seems great for the money. Also for being a higher power .22 I got to say the shot...

    N/A Working on springers

    So I'm getting back to springers, I guess more in depth with them and learning more about them. PCP guy for years and have no issues working on them. Have owned springers since a child but never worked on them. Springers are very different obviously. What do I need to learn about or ways in how...

    N/A Think I might be done...

    I think I can say I've reached where I have wanted to with my PCP airguns. I have 4 at the moment but possibly will be down to 3 soon maybe 2. My Taipan Vet Long .22 is an incredible shooter and my Long range precision pesting rig. My Taipan Vet Short .22 is also a great shooter and paired with...

    N/A Cometa break barrels

    Looking for something to replace what was my old RWS 34P Cometa airguns was mentioned. So I looked into them and looks like review wise people seem to be very happy with them for the price. Not the best of the best but value wise you get very good guns for the money. Would love to hear thoughts...

    N/A Whats your most consistently accurate airgun?

    Whats that one airgun you have that's got that unicorn barrel that just amazes you everytime you shoot it? I've owned many airguns and I can't say I've had one like this before just crazy accurate. My Taipan Vet Long .22 shooting JTS 18gr at 920fps. 50yds 4 5 shot groups. Avg of .284". I think...

    N/A 14-15fpe .22 Springer

    I'm looking for a good .22 springer around the 14-15fpe range. Basically want to have a self sufficient version of my lower powered PCPs for close range shooting and pesting. What are my choices? I'd love a RWS 34P like I used to have but those aren't made anymore and don't want one of the EMS...

    RWS Are the newer Diana/RWS 34 any good?

    Before I got into PCPs as an adult my first gun back was a Diana/RWS 34P .22. I really enjoyed the gun and honestly would love to get one back. I sold it after getting into PCPs and fell to the Dark side. However I see they changed them and the original style is no longer for sale? Now there 34...

    Realistic slug expectations

    So I have my Taipan Veteran Long that has a great barrel on it. Arguably one of my best shooting guns I've owned. Probably avg .3" groups at 50yds as it is with JTS 18gr at 920fps. I've tried slugs in many guns previously but nothing had really shown promise. Not really even close. I've tried a...

    Varmint Knocker 22gr XLHPs

    I've been testing these in my Taipan Veteran Long and I think I might have finally found my slug. Accuracy seems fantastic and no flyers. Settled at around 815-820fps. Tried higher but was opening up at a bunch of different speeds. Nice thing is it's my same tune for my JTS 18gr so only need to...

    Zulus LRF off screen when zoomed all the way in?

    So I got my 3-12 Zulus and I love it. Much better for my needs. Now on my 5-20 my LRF crosshair was high left of regular crosshairs but never went far away when zoomed all the way in. On my 3-12 it's low left but no further than the 5-20 was away from the crosshair and on 12 I can't see the LRF...

    Varmint Knockers 22gr XLHPs

    These things are awesome! So far they are shooting the best by far out of slugs I've tried out of my Taipan Veteran Long. The hollow point is massive and should do some real damage to some pests.

    Zulus is pretty awesome!

    I'm pretty amazed at how clear the Zulus can record videos! So fun.

    DNT Zulus 3-12

    Anyone order one yet? I really loved my Zulus 5-20 but even on 5 power sometimes I found it too zoomed in for some of my very close pesting. Sold it and was looking at maybe a 2-12 scope but saw the 3-12s are available for order. So decided looking at videos from the UK the FOV is much better so...

    Optics Arken Zulus 5-20 LRF

    Looking to sell my Zulus. I've used it 3-4 times. It's a great little piece of technology but maybe too much for my needs. The zoom for me is too tight for my close range shooting I tried it in today. Likely going back to a 2-12 scope. It's basically new. Has 2 batteries, charger and SD card...
