Hi folks, parallax error is caused by the concave and convex shape of a scopes lens. All scopes have parallax error, some more than others. All can be corrected for by centering the sight picture on the lenses. To accomplish this the peripheral haze is used. Peripheral haze it the out of focus ring that can be seen by moving the eye closer to the scope. Move the eye until an even ring of blur haze surrounds the sight picture. This puts your sight picture in the center of the lens resulting in zero parallax error. Also, when mounting a scope, center the elevation adjustment, shim the scope to get close and fine tune with the adjustment. The closer the scope is to zero adjustment, the less the parallax/lens error.
I shoot 50/50 iron sights and scopes. The scope error is most critical when changing shooting positions. Centering a scope becomes an added step when shooting left handed behind ones right flank for instance. At 30m a 4x, set parallax rimfire scope can vary 3/4in in poi due sloppy parallax centering centering.
It isn't just because of rules that aperture sights rule competition shooting worldwide.
Hope this is helpful.
Shoot Parabolic

I can no longer attach photos to my threads. Tried logging in and out to no avail…

Ok so long story short I'm sitting on an M3 I picked up second hand. My plan is to use it to convert some powder guys at the club during the monthly rimfire matches. These matches are basically bench style knock down silhouettes at 50, 100, 150, and 200m. Most, if not everyone there, is shooting subsonic 22lr so I would love to join in with some air powered 22 slugs. I guess my question is this... What do I need to do this? Where do I start? Long slug liner, a butt load of random slug sizes, and countless hours of testing?

I'm getting out of the hobby and selling all my stuff. I'll be making a few threads over the next few weeks. Everything I have left is gently used in my backyard only shooting from a table and in excellent condition and what I kept out of the last of my (at once) large collection.

Hey Guys,
After spending the last two months learning about Electric Guitar Building/Customizing, I have come up with (what I think is) a very good comparison with OEM Airgun quality and the benefits of Airgun Tuning.

Specifically, using Fender Telecaster and Stratocaster guitars as an example ... we have the quality hierarchy as follows:
- Squire Affinity Telecaster/Statocaster - $199+
- Squire Classic Vibe Telecaster/Strat. - $430+
- Fender Player Telecaster/Stratocaster - $850
- Fender Professional Tele/Stratocaster - $1,800+
- Fender Custom Shop Tele/Strat. - $4,500+

What I would say, is the Best Airguns are made to the standards of the Fender Professional guitars.
Good enough quality for the average consumer, but not good enough for folks who scrutinize it everyday (or use it to earning a living .... professionally).
I know this maybe an exaggeration (You Tube videos), but most veterans (Guitar Players) scoff at a stock, Fender Professional - saying it just doesn't Feel or Play good enough in their hands.

They want something more broken in or Worn in ................ and that has some other Customized Tricks done to it - they often use.
-> Sound Familiar ????

Enter in the Fender Custom Shop -
For roughly an additional $2,500+, a professional Luthier can make a guitar with (somewhat) standard specs - that has special wood, made everything broken in for smooth playing, and included the best pickups/controls you can get. I'm sure the paint is special too, but most videos seem to show it's their feel or play-ability that is paramount.

This is tantamount to having Motorhead, Paul Watts or maybe Michael Nitsch work the gun over.

The Custom Shop is like an excellent "after-market" Tune to enhance the guns shot cycle, efficiency or tweak accuracy a bit.
This is not to say an OEM gun is bad at all, just not ideal - further, many home/professional tuners can do the same - (mubhaur).

Using the Fender Custom Shop example, this is proportionally how much it would cost airgun manufactures to custom tune a gun.
Guitars are a different animal vs. Airguns .... there is a vast market for Custom Shop guitars, whereas most folks already complain about high Airgun costs. Guaranteed, only the top 5% (my guess) would buy an OEM, Custom Shop Airgun - meaning an idea domed to failure -> right now.

But I would suggest, this is a great way for folks with some basic skills to get close to a custom shop Airgun.
Again, were not all Motorhead's with a lathe, Mill and other stuff ..... but it's silly to settle for a Standard Airgun when a somewhat, Custom Shop alternative is available with a little $$, leg work and Tinkering Time.

Many will say a OEM - RAW HM1000x doesn't need to be tuned, but why not try to achieve a Custom Shop version!

Has anyone ever made a full-auto carbine pellet gun?
If I recall correctly, Crosman made the 600 and 451 that were both carbine semi-auto, but that's as close as we ever got to carbine full auto. BB guns are available with full auto, but seemingly not pellet guns.
BB's don't have any preferred orientation for loading so perhaps that makes things a bit easier, but pellets have a definite front and back .... gotta maintain that during loading, right?

Some Umarex SAA pistols put the pellets in fake "bullets". Something like that could be the solution .... it would maintain proper orientation during loading, and the spent "shell" would eject like the "real thing". Sure it would be a gas hog (as were the Crosmans) but oh what fun!

Is it possible that the unparalleled realism combined with the speed and accuracy of pellets (compared to BB' might present potential legal barriers?

This is an early serial number (0000035 I believe) Skout EPOCH .30 cal. with both barrel lengths 25" and 35" (6 barrels in all) and an extra magazine. ( 2 total) I Also have a prototype Moderator adapter from donny FL before they where available to the public.
I pre-purchased this gun before it was available to the public from HPP. I have posted about this gun on this forum. Go review those posts. Simply put, I never used the gun. I don't even know if it is charged up. Scope not included I am not trading the rifle
Before you spend a large amount of cash on a new one contact me. $1500.00 /discuss pick-up or shipping.

post from 2/23
Scout Epoch Pictures of mine that I just received.
Shot string with JSB 44.5 gr. Diablo pellets 30 cal
HP Reg at 1500 psi Low Pressure at 150 psi
895, 895, 898, 898, 895, 895, 905, 905, 905, 905 fps.
It has a Bark that I must address and it being so different from all the others I have. I am going to take a few months (the entire summer and fall) and enjoy it and see what it is really like before saying to much to soon. I have all the support I may need if something isn't right at HPP. Thanks again Tom and Moose

Hunter

My question is as a pellet how good are they a 100 yards? I have pretty good accuracy with the18.13 JSBs but want to try the 25gr looking for opinions

While the big airgun companies online prefer to sell $500-$1000+ compressors from their web pages one can easily obtain a compressor which attests to being able to fill your average PCP air rifle or pistol sufficiently for far less. I've seen them run sub-$200 on Amazon to above $1000 there and in other places.

I really wonder if there is such a dramatic difference in quality as there is in price.

I would be curious to read some of the opinions and experiences here, as I am intent on starting to use PCP air rifles and pistols. I've already watched a variety of YouTube videos on the subject, including British Andy's and Rich Eutsler's and others. I already have a collection of break barrel, CO2 and gas ram air guns and would like to try the next level. (My search has been limited to those compressors which do not require water cooling.)

Thanks for your time.

...and NO that shiny finish is not what you think it is!

Anyways, the King GRS stock is nice to look at but I was worried that the stock finish might staining from hand sweat. The color was kind of a raw wood matte and I expected it would stain easy. So here's the stock after 1 coat of Tru-Oil. It really brought out the red in the wood.



Just 4 coats and that GRS stock is looking real good.



Here's a pic from before the refinish:

Ok so went to my buddy's place to shoot my Brocock Ghost to do some more pellet testing and playing with the dial. He's getting work done on his house and workers boss man came over to talk to us and saw our rifles we had he saw the same ones used in Florida on iguanas. Him and his friend were shooting iguanas in Florida. His friend left his gun in the truck he told me he had no way to fill it up and had plans to use it here so he gave to me to use over at my buddy's house ....25 cal Jet 2!! All I can say is WOW ....now have figure out pellets to shoot in this...

Hey everyone I’m trying to decide on a back up for my red wolf in 177 for field target. As a fan of daystate my first consideration would be a wolverine, but the introduction of the BRK Ghost has some appeal. If those of you with knowledge of the two platforms would give me your opinion it would be greatly appreciated.
Mike

I’m going to buy a Daystate Revere for informal backyard target practice (primarily offhand ) and field target competition. I’m new to the world of PCPs. My frame of reference is a Beeman R7 and FWB 300s. A post on one of the other subject areas “Daystate Revere Consistency” has me wondering whether I should/need to purchase a regulated vs an un-regulated gun. I think regulated, but want to be sure. I’d appreciate your comments. Thanks, Tom

Well I have to say I’m a lil more than Impressed with this DAR Gen 3 (Dynamic Air Rifles) I’ve been staring at this and watching videos and reviews ect & I figured hell why not, for Sub $300 Regulated, threaded Barrel, no adapter needed.. which in all honesty it’s probably the quietest factory gun I’ve ever heard, I thought my Armada was quiet & this is even quieter! So right out the box, it shot good ole Crosman 14.3 HPs super well as does most, Predator Polymag 18.3s phenomenally, so i figured what the hell let’s see if this thing will spit slugs.. Last week I ordered 900 .218 17.5gr Hp Slugs from Nielsen Specialty just because they are light and I figured I’d like to try them in some lower/moderately powered guns.. well this thing here spits those out right at 900fps with the outta the box tune and ACCURATELY, far beyond my expectations 1/2” groups @ 45yds.. downside is they are loose in the mag, but they feed good.. the action on the bolt feels good, smooth, not gritty.. trigger is fantastic in my opinion for a factory trigger esp on a $299 rifle, wood stock, just feels nice all around.. I wasn’t expecting it to perform anywhere near the way it does.. so for anyone looking for a great budget pcp, I’d absolutely recommend it.. I’m tempted to order a second just to see if I happened to end up with a lucky gem..

Like new Brocock Atomic XR with folding stock, standard mag ,CARM mag and single shot tray. Scope, rings, bipod and moderator not included.

7 shots at 30 yards with hades 16gr and 23 shots on the reg. $900 FIRM shipped PP F&F. I’ve got perfect feedback and take care of my rifles (used to make a living).

Emergency. I need that money fast for medical bills. Fast sale would be the best. Hit me really hard to sell this one. Have almost $3000.00 invested in it.
Comes with following extras:
Element Helix 6-24x50 FFP MOA Scope $480
Eagle Vision Adjustable Scope Rings $90
Eagle Vision Scope Ring Level $15
Donny FL Sumo LDC $150
K+L Monopod $130
UTG 360 TL 7-9 inch Bipod $80
Saber Bottle Clamp for Bipod $70
5 Magazines 4 extra $200
Carm Single Shot Loader $20
Apache Carry Case can be carried with 700 mm Barrel installed $170
Original Butpad is also included.

Like said it is a Continuum has both Barrels 380 and 700 mm in .22 cal.
gun was bought in 2022. Not even half a tin of pellets through it, i have a hard time shooting it, i'm living in an apartement complex, there is no shooting any kind of Airgun or any other allowed for the next possible shooting location i had to drive 35 miles one way. So that's why it was not shot much.

Like said before i need that money fast for medical bills and others. I really hate to sell it, it is my dream Airgun, and will hit me hard, but this had to be done.
I would prefer it for local pickup, but would ship too, shipping is on buyer. i would be shipped in Apache Case wrapped in Cardboard.
If you have any question just ask.
Can take PayPal price is $1500, buyer pays shipping. Local pickup would be in southern Mississippi, George County.

For you guys that haven’t seen it yet. A day out with the BRK Ghost doing some long range hunting with pellets. I think a lot of us forgot how well pellets can work as well for hunting
