Other  Best .22 PCP for the cost, avoiding buyer's remorse...

I'd like to get a discussion going about the best PCP for the money that you invest, I'm specifically interested in .22 caliber for right now. I'm not saying I want an inexpensive gun or that I think a person needs to spend $4000 either, what I'm after is to get some opinions on what gun is best worth it's cost.

To give some context to why I'm thinking about this. I have an FX Maverick in .25 and a Skout Epoch in .30. They are both great guns but are expensive to buy and to shoot. I find that I have enjoyed both my .177 or .22 caliber guns much more as they are way less expensive to shoot, easier to manage the noise and generally just fun to use.

A little background for context, I've have owned or own, an Avenger .22 cal, FX Dreamline .22 Cal, Skout Epoch .22 cal (caliber change kit for my .30 cal). An Avenger .177 which I liked but didn't love and a Hatson Factor RC which I have a bit of a love / hate relationship with depending on how it's shooting (more about that another day).

I absolutely loved my .177 Avenger, I shot 1000's of pellets through it before I decided to replace it; but the .22 cal Avenger (a refurb) wasn't as good an owner experience for me, the gun just didn't shoot as good and, in the end, I returned it. Looking at resources about the Avenger, I considered doing all kinds of upgrades to it and getting a new .22, also doing the same upgrades to it; but based on my logic and thoughts it just made more sense to buy a gun that was closer to what I wanted and in the end less work and about the same money.

After a bunch of reading and videos I decided to get a FX Dreamline Compact Tact .22 cal, the gun is butter smooth but compared to my bigger guns it just doesn't have the oomph, shooting anything heavier than 15.89 pellets the gun just gets sporadic (the fps drops to low and I'm at max tune). Thinking the issue was the short barrel, I purchased the 500mm barrel kit for it (originally came with the 320mm). The 320mm barrel with 15.89 or lighter pellets or slugs works great, 1/2" groups at 50 yards. The minute I put the 500mm on the gun, my pellets go everywhere but on target (> 6" group @ 50 yrds). I've tried varying the speed, regulator, different moderators, no moderator, in the end I just gave up and put the 320mm back on the gun; I'll admit that it's likely tuning but I just don't know what's wrong with it when the longer barrel is installed and clearly I'm not smart enough or whatever to fix it.

The Skout Epoch in .30 cal is an amazingly accurate gun, its just unreal how nice this gun shoots. Converting it to .22 cal caliber with the kit is honestly a pain, trying to use the .30 cal tune results in ok accuracy and leads me to believe you really need to completely retune the gun or it shoots less than good. Based on my experience with the barrels on my Dreamline I just didn't want to risk trying to retune the Skout Epoch besides it takes 20 or more minutes to mechanically switch the caliber and I do like to shoot the .30 sometimes. So, in the end a waste of money as this isn't a good choice for me, honestly, I would only buy a caliber change kit for a gun in the future if I intended to permanently switch it over.

In the two years I've been doing PCP, I've had buyer's remorse more than once, the Avenger .22 Cal (refurb), my current .177 cal Factor RC, even my Maverick (I wish I had bought an Impact for the 100ish dollars difference, lack of experience and knowledge).

Hopefully I've painted a picture by now of how a person can make horrible choice due to inexperience and ignorance, I'm hoping that some of you with more of both will help to guide me into my next purchase. My plan is to sell my Factor RC, caliber change the Dreamline to .177 permanently and buy a new .22 cal gun.

I've been thinking about what gun I'd like to have for a .22 cal.. I really like the FX King but not really crazy about the stock or the price (> $2400), I think I'd like to own and Impact and the MK4 just released but also a big price tag, a Skout Evo or Epoch, etc... the FX DRS is an interesting option at ~$1000, same with the new Karma EQ (~$900), and we could go on and on.

This brings me back to my question, how much money should a person spend on a .22 cal PCP rifle, by extension, how does one evaluate the real value of say a FX King or Impact MK4 compared to say a FX DRS or Karma EQ or even an Avenge-X? Thoughts? What gun would you buy and why?

Left Handed FT Help

So I am teaching a newbie wftf Field Target.
He is 6'3" and in very good condition but he is left handed and left eye dominant which isn't a bad thing
but
with me being a right handed HFT shooter i could use some help coaching him. Perhaps some pics of you Lefty Folks standing, Kneeling, and on the all important Bumm Bag.
He's not completely sure of WFTF but i need to expose him to the sport properly.

thanks in advance.

AEA  Challenger Elite.457 Head Aches

New to pcps and here, but lurking a while trying to learn. But this gun has had a steep learning curve.
Got the Challenger Elite .457 about 4 months back, because externally regulated and didn't want to deal a shot bell curve with my 1st pcp.
But it's been a head ache.
First blew o-ring in regulator core, reg kept resetting itself lower after few series of shots and I kept trying to reset where I had it. So eventually turned out to far. Only 2nd day out with gun, boy was I sick.
New reg core, same resetting itself lower issue. This time lowered tank psi, turned reg down, then refilled and readjusted reg. But problem continued.
Afraid to take apart gun at first, eventually removed pressure tank to find it was loaded full of oil. I've always used dual filters with my compressor so not from that. Dealer's tech said he'd also seen a few like that from factory.
Cleaned tank and reg, got to finally work properly 2 weeks ago.
Started with MrHP's slugs but had large deviations across shot string on chronograph. Slugged bore, was .457, resulting in his barely engaging lands. Groove's were .461ish. So got myself for setup casting .460, more $. Experimented sizing .458, .459, and powder coating. Best results just .460 as cast. And absolutely hates powder coated slugs.
Next, last weekend, suddenly started what I thought was valve bouncing, by double firing randomly. Tech support gave possibilities, and sending another spring, not arrived yet.
Less afraid now, took apart gun this morning and found valve pin was hanging up in it's o-ring. Fortunately had already bought the o-ring kit for gun. Replaced o-ring (#42 in gun diagram) and valve pin moved smoothly. 50+ rounds today FINALLY not a single issue.
Also had a older scope go out during all this. But life time warranties aren't any good after the company goes out of business. New scope arrived yesterday but haven't mounted. Today was simply testing and shooting thru chrono.
Now agree with countless post throughout forum, AEA is for those who don't mind working on their gun.
But even fighting the regulator issue, and before scope gave out it can be a tack driver. At 50 yrds I've had 3 and 4 same hole and the other nealy touching those.

Traditional Rifle  NLA Weihrauch HW77 Rifle (not carbine) .177

FS: New HW77 rifle in .177, not the carbine. I purchase two of these years ago. My son and I shot one but this one remains untouched. The rear sight has not even been moved on the rail. This is a full power version at around 14 fpe. If you've ever wanted the full length version this is your chance. I can take other pictures if needed. Price is $600 plus actual shipping/insurance. I am open to trades. Perhaps an HW30/R7 in .177 or an HW50 in .22 plus some cash. It's a fine rifle, the bluing is deep and rich, not a mark on it. The other one we had shot incredibly. I can certainly keep it but I would prefer something that I can more easily use with my grandson. Thank you for your interest. I don't have a lot off feedback here but you can find me over at GunBroker and I used to be very active on the old yellow forum. Please PM with questions and offers. I accept PayPal and US Postal money orders only.

forearm bipod

Hello fellow field target shooters.

Got a question regarding the forearm rest and bipod. I googled and couldn't find a clear answer.

The current AAFTA rules says

  1. Any such aids must rest on the ground and may not be driven or otherwise embedded into the ground or shooting pad, and cannot be attached to the gun: must release from the gun as the gun is picked up, and must not connect to the gun with studs or devices that restrict gun movement. A single stop may be used in front or behind the gun support, but no other anchoring mechanisms are permitted.

So if the forearm has a groove (basically two stops) and you rest that groove on the bipod...is that considered illegal?
