    Vulcan Accuracy Problem Fixed!

    My Vulcan 25 has been, like many other owners, one of my most accurate PCPs. A few weeks ago, this changed by throwing flyers and poor groups even at 30 yards or less. I cleaned the barrel...no improvement. Changed the probe o ring...no improvement. Chronographed a 20 shot string and all...

    FX Revolution. Replaced pellet probe oring...accuracy now terrible

    I really got a winner in my FX Revolution...over the last year have well over 1000 shots through it with perfect semiauto cycling and it has been a tack driver. Well, all good things come to an end. Shooting yesterday, felt air on my face and it failed to auto cycle. Finally determined that...

    Anyone Experience a Vulcan Shroud Shift?

    I have owned a 25 Vulcan since July and have shot close to 600 rds through it with no problems. Most recently realized that the shroud was not tight on the barrel and that an additional 1/4 turn was required to tightened it firmly. The shroud set screws used to be 180 set to the barrel and are...

    Something this Inexperinced Shooter didn't Know

    I have shot pistols and shotguns most of my life and really never got into long bores until recently with the discovery of PCP's. Love to target shoot in my backyard and humanely dispatch pesky damaging ground squirrels. Was target shooting my trusty Vulcan 25 the other day at 20 yards with the...

    Daystate Air Wolf Owners...Better Accuracy on High or Low Power?

    Have been target shooting my new Air Wolf for nearly a month now and as recommended on this Forum, it likes JSB 15.89 grain on low power (30 fpe) and 18.1 grain on high (37 fpe). The rifle has been giving me good 40-50 yard 5 shot groups as below (high power target right and low power target...

    SWFA SS 3-15 x42 Tactical...worth the cost?

    Hoping someone has some experience to share regarding the SWFA SS 3-15 tactical. I am looking for a good 50 yard target and varmint scope and would like something that may just be a bit superior to Hawke in terms of clarity and brightness in a tactical scope. Realize the SWFA is first focal...

    Finally sighted in my Daystate Airwolf

    Well I finally sighted in my new Daystate AirWolf with it's MTC Viper Connect 3-12x 24mm scope. The rifle is very light with this scope and carbon fiber bottle...within a pound of my Vulcan in this configuration. I sighted in on high power at 20 yards shooting JSB Exact Jumbo Heavies 18.1...

    A Thing of Beauty

    My latest addition to the stable...Daystate AirWolf 22 with Hugget moderator and MTC Viper Connect Scope. Haven't shot it yet as just got the scope mounted which not sure if I am going to like or not due to the almost zero eye relief. Daystate surely makes a quality and impressive looking air...

    What Power Do you prefer for Target and Varmint Shooting?

    I am relatively new to this hobby and using rifles with scopes in general. Just curious what scope power do most shooters prefer for 50 yard target shooting and small varmint hunting? On my variable power scopes, I seem to have gravitated to liking 15-16 power for most of my shooting outside...

    Rescoped Evanix Max ML

    The Evanix Max ML 22 was my first PCP air rifle almost 8 months ago. Due to simply not knowing any better, I scoped the Evanix with a huge (and heavy) UTG 8-32x56 scope that was on sale including rings. The scope actually served well with no problems other than the weight on an already fairly...

    Another Vulcan Lover

    Can't really say much that hasn't already been said regarding the new Vulcan. I purchased the 25 with an Aeon 6-24 scope and simply love it. Shooting consistently 928 fps with JSB Kings and one ragged hole at 35 yards for me using only shooting sticks for a rest from a chair. Action smooth...

    Filling from SCBA

    Recently acquired a 66 cu ft SCBA tank and would appreciate some best practices regarding filling rifles directly from the tank. My main concern is preventing overfilling the PCP reservoir using the unregulated SCBA valve on the 4500 psi tank. Previously, I have been filling directly from my...

    Speed of Sound vs Speed of Pellet Causing Squirrel to Flinch?

    I are an Enginner and tend to over think things per my wife but I swear I have missed some ground squirrels as they flinched just before pellet impact. I am by no stretch of my imagination a marksman and have no trouble accepting my own flinches etc. However, I missed a couple of ground...

    is anyone else concerned?

    Was having a discussion with my neighbor who is also an avid air gunner sharing how impressed we are with the energy developed by the evolving large bore PCP's. Our discussion quickly evolved or degraded into the potential for a crime to be committed with a high powered PCP. Realize it isn't a...

    Physics 101

    I am a retired engineer and its been quite a while since taking physics. Just read a question on another forum regarding changing nothing on a given air gun other than the barrel and pellet probe size from .25 to .30 cal and how to calculate the new fpe. My background tells me that keeping...

    FX Wildcat semi auto?

    just purchased a new FX Revolution and it is simply everything I want in an air rifle except being compact. Have you considered the Monsoon semi auto mechanics in a Wildcat bull pup frame? Thank you and Regards

    FX Revolution...Most fun I've had in a while with my clothes on!

    Just purchased a new FX Revolution and I can't imagine a better air rifle for dispatching varmints and just plain fun shooting. Sighting in my 6-20 Hawk tactical scope at 20 yards literally took 5 shots with several clicks down and right until it was consistently shooting at rest through the...

    Hello All i am new to the PCP air gun world after buying a property in Idaho swarming with ground squirrels. I started with a Hammerli 850 22, then Evanix Max ML 22, and then after watching Ted's reviews...just received my FX Revolution 22. Appreciate any advice regarding the maximum fill...
