As a kid, and now again as a retired adult, I find myself relating to Mother Nature's clock more than the human calendar. (I threw my watch away - literally - the day I retired and haven't worn one since - don't miss it a bit LOL!)

The warm weather "seasons" relate to when the snow melted and and everything comes back to life again. The migratory birds have their own obvious schedule, other things less so.

As a "hunter-gatherer" sort of guy I watched the signs to determine when to forage wild garlic, morel mushrooms, wild asparagus, and other stuff over the growing season. The blooming dandelions are a sure sign that the walleye were are running in the local river. Here, a new species of dragonfly emerges every couple of weeks and plants go through their blooming periods; it's like the ticking of a biological clock marking events that I'm watching for.

Turtle Day is the day that the pond has warmed up enough that the turtles come out of hibernation. To me, it's nature's official announcement that it is the end of winter and the start of the busy season. The snow-blower is put away and the batteries are installed in the boat. I'm looking forward to six to eight weeks of reasonable temperatures ideal for fishing, shooting and enjoying the outdoors before the bugs and heat of summer arrives.

I'm curious about different parts of the world, maybe you can share. I'm in central Ontario, Canada. Where do you live and are there any biological events do you take note of?

So, Happy Turtle Day to all!

Cheers!



Turtles are spooky, a few moments ago I counted over 50 sunning on the logs, there's still about 20 in the picture if you look closely.



I'm being watched closely by these Painted Turtles... they were gone three seconds later. They get fairly tolerant (tame?) of me and after a couple of days and just watch me pass by without spooking.

There's also a few Mud Turtles and a good population of Snapping Turtles in this 50+ acre, spring fed beaver pond.

This is the question. Here are three examples. Top one is a factory finished Beechwood stock. Almost looks pickled. No color but a nice matte finish. I did strip it and it’s now the bottom one. Just received a new one (middle). They finally added some color to the wood. Much better. This particular piece of Beechwood even has some figure. I like it but don’t love it. The figure would be greatly enhanced with a strip and refinish. So the question is: Strip it or Leave it. Thank you.

Check out this 300fps $2,200 TURD!

This is a Weihrauch HW77 in .,177 that was made in 1987. This sweet shooting rifle has the older 25mm piston, which in my opinion makes a much smoother shooting rifle than the newer 26mm pistons. I replaced the seals with Vortek seals and put a new Vortek spring in it back in October. Averages 860 fps with 8.64 H&N pellets for 14 ft. lbs. She’s been around the block but is still smooth and accurate as any HW77 out there. Price is $300. Payment by USPS money order, cashier’s check or PayPal (friends and family only). Shipping is $30 to the lower 48.

The Apache 9800 rifle case is on sale again at Harbor Freight. This is usually as low as it ever goes.

Theoben Rapid in .177, needs a new barrel seal. A puff of air escapes the chamber air when shooting. All other seals are good and the rifle is holding air. No fill adapter, no scope rings or mag. Price is $635 Shipping is $30 to the lower 48. Payement by USPS money, cashier’s check or PayPal (friends and family only).

Trades? - I’ll consider them, I’m not looking for anything in particular.

700mm panthera it does have the undertaker rail and I do have the weight kit for the inside I just have to find them. Gun shoots great. 1400 or I would be open to trade it for something else as well. I have two of them so one gets parked every trip out.

Great little gun, adjustable power, JSB 8.4gn L: 750, M:870, H:900, factory huma reg, adjustable target trigger. Prefers H&N pellets. Scope and rings not included, just to show clearance with low BLK 1in monuts ( I like low mounted scopes and found the extended rails not needed ) has a few scuffs, but overall good shape.. 1 mag, ss tray, muzzle brake, breach seals $1000 obo shipped paypal F&F

I’ve been watching the Epic two videos and reviews and something jumped out at me. Is this rifle a copy or possibly a euro version of the EVOL? I recently acquired a Paradigm and have had it apart to have a look at the workings. There are quite a few similarities and a few differences. Of course every rifle has some similarities and there will always be some changes between them. Now I’m wondering if some of the parts would be interchangeable, like the balanced valve, barrels, magazines, air cylinder and possibly the stock.
From what I’ve seen there’s really no difference in accuracy, is the Epic Two the EVOL killer?

Hi I am very new into PCP airguns I just bought an fx impact sniper one guy at the shop told me the 33.9 grains I believe 25 caliber or best another person told me the 25 grain are best my intention is to use it for squirrels rabbits and the occasional coyote at maybe 30 yards if anyone has any suggestions on pallet weight please I would love to hear it thank you once again I know nothing about these guns other than their beautiful accurate and now I have one thank you once again

I see the phrase “I’ll never outshoot this gun” pop up all the time, but I think this idea is sometimes misunderstood — or misused.

I’m not sure how everyone interprets that phrase, but to me, it sounds like people are comparing their own accuracy directly against the gun’s mechanical accuracy. A lot of people seem to treat this as a reason not to care about gun accuracy. You can see this mindset in posts like the first reply here:


But here's the thing: you and the gun are not competing. You’re not trying to “beat” your gun. You're a team. The shooter's dispersion and the gun's dispersion combine into the final result.

Even a less skilled shooter will get tighter groups with a more accurate gun. Yes, if your personal dispersion is 10x greater than the gun's, then the benefit of better gun accuracy might be negligible. As long as your groups aren’t more than 5 times larger than the gun’s, improving the gun’s accuracy still makes a meaningful difference — so saying “the gun outshoots me” feels like a misunderstanding to me.

Would love to hear what others think. How do you interpret “I’ll never outshoot this gun”?

For any of you that actually own a Mora of some smaller caliber (under .25) version.

Per the title, I'm thinking of buying one, in .22. I know that these guns were more directly designed to shoot slugs.

My question, is, how are they at shooting pellets, in the 18 to 25 grain weights, at shorter distances, like up to 50 yrds. ?
I've done some searching, but nothing that directly relates comes up.

Hey all,
I was about to grab the BSA/Gamo PCP compressor, but then I found out it's just a rebranded chinese GX CS3-I. That kinda threw me off, so I started looking for a reliable alternative.

I found the newer Stoeger PCP Compressor (good vfm with 320bar support), but the thing is, I can't really find any reviews or much info about it. I'm wondering if this compressor is actually a solid choice or just another old/rebranded deal.

Anyone here used Stoeger's compressor?
Is it worth considering over the GX CS3-I? They are very similar priced where I live and hard to pick one.
Would love to hear some thoughts or better alternatives

Hi I am new here I posted it in general discussion, but here it seems more appropriate.
I want to show my energy measurement results on 3 rifles with 16 different types of pellets (all 0.177 caliber)
1. Gamo Swarm Magnum Pro Gen3i (30 J energy according to Gamo)
2. Gamo Swarm Maxxim 10x Gen2 (20 J energy)
3. 760 Pumpmaster (old)

I shoot 16 different types of pellets with weight span from 0.325 gram to 1.31 gram, 5 shots each. Pellet weight was checked on analytical balances. An average weight distribution was within 1% accuracy.
Pellet velocity was measured with CHRONY Beta 2 inch from muzzle. Average velocity distribution was also close to 1%

BUT, velocity variation with pellet weight puzzles me!
Below are my data in graphical form


As you can see velocity drops with increase of the mass of the pellet - this is expected. What is unexpected is that it drops at significantly defferent rate for different guns, and for extra heavy 1.3 g pellets velocities fro all 3 guns are virtually the same!!!. Old 760 Pumpmaster with 10 pumps shoot 1.3 g pellet with the same speed as brand new the most powerful break barel rifle (Gamo Magnum).

Energy graph also show that that old Pumpmaster shows same stable muzzle energy independent on the used pellet, while muzzle energy of both Gsmo Swarm Magnum and Gamo Swarm Maxxim drops with increase of the pellet weight from 35 Joules (for Magnum) and 22 J (for Maxxim) down to the level of this old Pumpmaster with just 7 Joule.

Can anyone explain why it happens?

17 foot pounds of laser beam air rifle!

I’m new to pcp n just found airgunnation. I purchased a Airforce condor in .25. I’m having a hard time getting consistent at 100yds. I’ve tried quite a few slugs n some pellets. I’m looking to hit pigeons outs to 100. Any help and pointers will be greatly appreciated

Foggy morning and turned pretty and warmer. Switchy as usual with strong multi direction gusts.

We welcomed 2 new shooters. Felipe Estrada and Ray Harp - good for them. JoeF is hard to beat, EdP went savage with his Savage, I shot Alteros slugs and my pellet rifle likes them.



Next N50 & USARB match tomorrow Sunday 4/13/2025

Soooooooo I just figured I’d throw this out there.

It’s a .30 Uragan 600mm barrel removable bottle with a quick detach mod that nets out to just under 28 inches without mod, sends 50 grain Griffith slugs at 880 absolutely stacks them and breaks down into a tennis racket bag. Case included, comes with two mags, digital pressure gauge with charger, Eagle vision lower extended Picatinny rail, and I’ll throw in 200 slugs that it loves. but hanging onto the scope for myself.

Tennis racket case has padded main pocket for Uragan, and large secondary padded pocket for moderator, extra bottles, whatever else you wanna throw in there. It’s accommodating.

Oh and bottle is 360cc, good for four mags, checked today four mags takes it from 300 bar to 190 so probably five mags and it’s nicely shrink wrapped with Electrical cable shrink tube just to pretty much eliminate shine.

1200 shipped CONUS, PayPal friends and family.

If you want the scope, I’ll throw it in for an additional 300. SWAT prismatic 10X with Christmas tree reticle.

She’s a beauty. And she’s unsuspecting.

Trades I’d consider are a dnt zulus 5-20 lrf + cash to me or sidewinder/sidewinder s .22/.25 + cash me to you. Or an LCS SK19

Thanks for looking.

Well, well in a few months will be moving to Georgia,

guess it means my airgun hunting will be completely different that it has been for the past 2 decades.
