I want to clean the barrel, until now I just assumed that the hex block of the barrel can be unscrewed, but no matter the force, thing don't go off.

I would ratter no to degass and tear things apart just to clean the barrel without fear of hitting the valve and turning my cleaning rod into an arrow.

New to this forum. I just bought this working Sheridan Silver Streak for $50. I think I got a good deal. Based on a site I came across it was made between June 1956 and May 1961. It pumps up great and holds air. I’m assuming it fires just fine but som .20 caliber pellets are on the way so I’ll know shortly how it shoots. I’m wondering should I just clean and sell as is or is it worth paying someone to restore. I do enjoy squirrel hunting and may keep this awhile but buy/selling/trading and sometimes restoring is how I make extra money. Any input would be appreciated.

Pistol,,Rifles I don't care , If your goofing around why shoot a slug under 50 yards? A pellets will do better in everything,, 100 yards pretty well the same,,, Past that and ya You better break the slugs out .. Not down on slugs I think more factory's will make SLUG guns , and the tide will turn, Slugs 1st and pellets might shoot well, I think there has to be a separation of the two.. Slug gun, no pellets designed as a SLUG gun, We need this/

hey everyone I just ordered an 18 cubic foot small bottle for matches, I’m looking for recommendations for a cover preferably neoprene for protection. Any advice would be appreciated, thank you.

The 4th and final version of the Altars M24. 25 cal 3d printed technical stock is now finished. For now its printed metallic pla pro.

The M24 is dedicated for 200 yard bench rest.

The 3d printed co-axial front rest is working perfectly.

I well report back after I shoot next Wednesday.

Rod in San Francisco

New member here from NC. I will try to summarize briefly how I got here.

I'm an avid hunter and outdoorsmen and I've strictly used blackpowder weapons my entire life. Why you may ask? When I was 16 I was convicted of a felony and in NC it stays on your adult record for life( I am 35 now). I didn't let that stop me from getting outside and chasing wild game and plinking around.

I must admit I've been living under a rock, I had no idea how far the evolution of air rifles has come in the last decade.

I'm sold on the idea and ready to purchase my first air rifle. I have narrowed it down to the AirForce Texan (ss or lss) as I am a buy once cry once type of person.

My question is in regards to how versatile the .357 caliber is within the realm of hunting and predator dispatching. Im not looking to hunt deer with it as it seems like that's pushing it a bit, but I would be taking game anywhere from a squirrel up to a coyote.

Many thanks! And cant wait to get involved with the community.

I am selling my Western Rattler .357 and an additional 27” SubMoa Barrel for it for $2300 OBO, gun is in near perfect condition. I used this gun and won first place in the 2023 EBR big bore competition. It is extremely accurate with both slugs and pellets. Let me know if you have any questions. Will ship for free.

I thought I came across a post recently stating that the Bullshark threads were not 1/2x20 and you would need some type of adapter to run a moderator. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

I thought I would share some pics of my accidental purchase of this FX Wildcat Compact Tube with Laminate stock. I had posted a WTB ad for a wood or laminate stock Wildcat and @RM100GUY suggested I take a look at Mundilar out of Portugal. While I was trying to figure out how much the total cost would be, the "Review Order" button completed my order before giving me a total whoopsie.

This Wildcat is a 177Cal, and I intend to use this mostly for pesting with a little mixed use for EFT HFT. It has a few minor upgrades so far:

EPL4 Arken 4-16x44mm MIL
UTG Accu-Sync Cantilever Mount
FX CF Liner Sleeve
Huma High Flow Transfer-Port
Huma High Flow Pellet Probe
Digital Reg Gauge
Maverick style Plenum
Black Arts Design Barrel Band
Hugget Belita
Drilled Stock for Sling Swivel Stud

With the bipod it weighs ~9.45lbs and without is ~8.5lbs, balance is pretty great and the ergos are top tier. I will be updating soon with accuracy and shot string. For @Vetmx the current tune with JSB KO MK3 slugs creates 21.6fpe aka 29.28528 Newton Meters, making it Blimey Chuffed squirrel Lurgy Innit Bruv. (980fps)

Hi guys

its finally here.. i put it together- meaning back to its original power instead of 5.5fpe because i was in holland and could do that legally..

anyhow- i changed the port dial wheel, added the hammer weight (there was none-just a piece of plastic tubing ) and cranked up the reg to 110 from the restricted 60bar..

but one thing was there that i did not use because there is no use for it in my DL..

its this black endcap that you see on this guy video- he even explains that its to put a tension or preload on his spring..

well- i have the tensioner with a dial (hammer power wheel) to put tension on the spring so i can not put this black endcap (with torx hole inside) because that's where my tensioner goes through ..

so, what's the deal with this endcap- i think the fx puts it in the high original power kit if i want to get rid of the hammer power adjuster and just cap the spring manually for tension or what is it for??



here is mine before i changed the parts..

and here is how she shoots- just one shot, only 110bar on the reg and 130bar in the cylinder, power wheel on 15, spring tension high, 45gr pellet going 718fps which gives around 50pfe or 69j- is that ok?

Hi everyone. I have an air arms s400 .177 that's maybe 15 years old but only shot maybe 10 tins of ammo through it. It was unused for many years and now that I've taken it out to shoot again, the power is very low. It's shooting 570fps with .5g pellets which is 5ftlb back in the day it was shooting 11ftlb

Things I've tried with little change...
Various pressures from 100 to 180bar
Spacer on firing spring to increase force
Polished main guide and bushings
Replaced orings and checked for air leaks
Checked pot depth is 57mm
Checked poppet valve and even made a new one from peek
Different pellets
Verified barrel port alignment
Verified valve guide rod is clean and free

I'm reaching out cause I'm at a total loss as to what it could be. It's consistent within around 5fps. Anything else I should check?

Sold

New to the sport and looking around for good stores around roswell , GA. North of Atlanta.

Anyone else get their pcp's tuned so it's shooting great then get bored, swage some new slugs in different weight, re-tune so shooting great again...then repeat the whole process...I have a problem. I'll swage from 48gn back up to 65gn...then back again lol

Looking to sell my panthera hc in .22 cal. Bought it new from a fellow member last year. Less than a month of having it the amp regulator crapped out so I put in the newest adjustable version of the huma and haven’t had a single problem with it. I also put a 480cc omega bottle on it. So it shoots great with a very good shot count with jsb 18.1 pellets. And it will shoot the light weight nsa slugs like Ted said it would in his video. Comes with case, manual, fill adapter, and a new Orion magazine. Sell for $1225 shipped lower 48 PayPal or postal money order.

Comes with everything you see in the photo
Drum mag
2x belts
Bottle
Stock
Wooden tools
I have lots of feedback on other platforms. I can send you my references.

Some years ago a user on here made an external plenum for the raw action with a co2 cartridge. Ever since, I’ve been wanting to built a bolt on external plenum and finally got around to fabricating one.
External plenum volume is 34cc
With an additional 33cc in the action. Giving me a total of 67cc.

Pretty pleased with how it turned out.
Rough calculation I seem to have gained around 16fpe

Just saw this

I got a few crows in my woods behind my house today. I made a makeshift blind along a downed tree where I could rest my bipod and called them in with a mouth call. They would land in a big oak 60 yards away to see what was up...it was madness and mayhem for a while. When I took the first one out, they went crazy as they didn't know what was up as they could not hear the rifle go off over all their racket using the Huggett moderator. I ended up taking out five of them before they decided to head out of dodge. I'm shooting the Nielson 17.5 gr slugs .22 cal. at 980 fps. and they were absolutely smacking them...

What a neat feeling!
