    What is the skinny on floating barrels?

    Originally posted in reference to the "Vulcan Tactic" carbine thread: I'm not a high-end PCP guy, but this gun...yet I have a concern, and maybe some of you more experienced folks can offer insight: floating barrels scare me. My Disco, with two barrel bands, is still kinda easy to knock the...

    How about your barrels, Crosman?

    Let me start by saying: I am a Crosman fan, perhaps even one of their biggest fan-boys. That said, I wish they would get their act together when it comes to the QC on their barrels. I've ordered two .22 barrels for a Benjamin Trail within the last year or so, and both seem to have the same...

    Brine...what's your formula?

    ajshoots mentioned in another post that he likes to brine rabbit, then freeze it for storage, so I decided to try it with my first squirrel of the season. I didn't have any recipe or formula for the brine, and just kinda winged-in, based on some info I got from my neighbor. I used a lot of...

    Disco draws first blood!

    Took my first two squirrel of the season, and the first squirrel ever with my Disco. This gun is impressive! I'm usually a springer guy, and am comfortable with my custom NP out to 30 yards, but this Disco is larger caliber AND flatter shooting than my .177. The bigger one I took off a tree...

    Hey Disco owners

    ...Any of you guys running two (or more) barrel bands? Does it effect your accuracy? Do you still run it like that, or doing something different? My Disco is accurate as-is, but I worry about damaging the barrel when out in the field, and suppose a second barrel band (near the barrel weight)...

    UTG/Leapers for warranty issues?

    Man, what a drag. I contacted UTG over a week ago about a SWAT scope that I've been having trouble with. Sucker just won't hold zero anymore, and is a bit over a year old. They suggested recentering, which I did. Ended up with a bit more than 1/4 turn of downward elevation adjustment when...

    Any RWS 460 Magnum owners?

    If you have one of these, do you like it? Is there anything you don't like about it? How's it Chrony? How is the trigger? Is it true that this model isn't particularly "hold sensitive?" I'm considering picking one up for hunting (mostly), pesting, and general use. I like the underlever design...

    Alliance Hobbies Discovery trigger

    I have a Discovery in .22 which I bought end of last January. I like the gun, and shoot it fairly well (sub 1 inch groups at 40-45 yards from a rest). It needed a barrel recrown and bypass cleanup out of the box, and shortly after purchase I did the "3 screw trigger mod." While I had the...

    Any hunters from New Mexico?

    I'm headed to New Mexico next week for a few days of job-related training. I checked out the NM hunting and fishing guide and state website online, but really couldn't find anything specific about airguns. I'm really only hoping to nail a few rabbits, maybe some ground squirrels, and other small...
