FX  FX Panthera trigger

I've been trying to tune my Panthera trigger to a fairly light setting. I also have a Dreamline which I've been able to tune to 8 oz., but I haven't been able to get the Panthera much below 13 0z. I've adjusted the first stage to the point where the gun no longer cocks, then back it out 1/4 turn. I've also worked with the second stage and nothing seems to help.
The Panthera trigger seems grittier than the Dreamline and there is lateral slop in the trigger blade.
Any suggestions on how to remedy my issues?

Hunter Class - new shooter on a budget.

New here in the forum, but not a new shooter. I currently own an Air Venturi Avenger in 22 cal. I shoot twice a month in a custom steel match from a bench. It's very enjoyable and challenging. I am however looking for a new event to compete in, hence I've found field target and the hunter class.

I've located a local club (1 of 3 in NC within an hour of me) and contacted the match director about my unique situation. See I am restricted to a wheelchair, as I am a bilateral below knee amputee. We discussed the rules and he directed me to the AAFTA website, which was very helpful.

We discussed a potential first rifle to use to compete, but i would like to hear from others their opinion. Funny enough he suggested looking into the Avenger (177) which i kinda like a i own one and like the way it shoots. Through my research I've learned the 16x restriction and am looking at the UTG Swat 4-16 x 44 AO (use one on my 22 cal currently).

Here is the question: what do you think of my choices? Would you have a different gun or scope to suggest? What accessories would you suggest are needed (bottle, case, and such)? Thanks in advanced and I look forward to becoming apart of the community.

The 1st shot/Cold bore shot?

Does the term and reference "Cold Bore"apply to air rifles, especially spring air rifles. It may not be necessarily related to the bore of the barrel as that relates to centerfire rifles but would most likely be linked to the reciever. Wether that effect is coming from the spring or from the parts that make up the piston and sleeve and lube. And would certain weather conditions effect it more or less depending on the enviromental conditions. I notice a poi shift from my very 1st shot to the the subsequent shots.

When do you start to get annoyed by a leak on your gun?

I know PCPs leak. I had my FX Impact M3 serviced a year ago for seals. They also tuned it for 30gr slugs. It is maxed out at the moment. Not that I need it to be but it is. I use it for backyard hunting raccoons in the winter for the most part. It will be shot maybe 20x a year and probably no more than 5 shots per occasion if even that. I would imagine that does not help. Anyways now it is leaking again very very slowly. 10 PSI a week. No big deal at all. But when it was new, it held pressure for a very long time. The Leshey2 I had also held pressure. It seamed like it never lost any pressure. Anyways... I am just curious. Would you service it? Should I care?

As much as I like the M3, I am starting to feel it is a total overkill and too much complication for my 20 yards distance, private war with coons. Maybe I should get something simple.

Where to purchase slugs online?

Hi All. I do not have any local buying options for most anything airgun related. Where do you have the best experience with purchasing slugs online? I’ve used UA for gear and find their customer service to be fantastic. However, I’ve compared a handful of online retailers and when it comes to the cost plus shipping, shipping doubles the price.

I know they’re literally sending lead.

Some retailers offer free shipping over $150 or $200, but I don’t need 4,000 slugs at this time. Free shipping over $50 would be nice. Pointers?


Merry Christmas!

Hay i was watching some kind of sniper move

Last nite ,And it was looking really good" then the guy is setting up the rifle and goes to put this $1000 scope on it and he starts useing a crescent wrench to put it on"i just lost interest in the whole thing"God ya think after all that bull they would,a have a 10 or 14mm wrench laying around?

PCP Rifle  SOLD ED GUN R5M LONG 22 WITH BAT MOD/AND XTRAS

Absolutely pristine with everything you need to do a full rebuild if needed. Also comes with bat moderator…scope can be purchased for an additional amount, but does not come with gun. This is a laserbeam you can put 30 shots in basically one hole at 50 yards all day long. It’s almost ridiculous check out the reviews also shoot slugs FX hybrids with great groups at 100+ yards and plenty of power super easy to adjust comes with factory original walnut stock and a factory synthetic stock all parts are from Ed gun. This is a hard gun to find gun in the long model and it’s a beautiful, beautiful gun. This is not a desperate sale so the price is firm. I would probably be interested in taking a trade, and some money or equal value gun. also, this thing is super quiet very backyard friendly. Price is $1850.00 firm new owner will pay for shipping which will be three days select and insured.

RAW - Branded Accessories?

Hey Guys,
Not sure what AirForce is up to, but they came out with a new line of (RAW) stabilization accessories which are attached via scope mount rings - I guess?
If these added weights use the scope rings, where does the scope go?

Maybe I've got it wrong, but these accessories seem ludicrous .......... does anyone understand this seemingly, superfluous addition o_O ?

No Christmas for this girl

This morning I was looking for a rabbit for Christmas dinner but this little girl decided she would try burying an acorn in the grass before heading back to her tree.
That was the last mistake she'll ever make. Caught her at the ear and I found the pellet under the skin just behind her other ear, she was essentially pithed. The bulging eye indicates surprise(lol) or just excessive cranial pressure.
Another notch on the Notos sling.
Merry Christmas everyone!

New shot shed planned / going up ( up and running )

Seeing as the 1:5 scale gasoline RC car track investment was money well wasted by my friend, i am now entering the construction business and will construct a new shot shed there.
This shed will have a Chinese diesel heater for winter, be plenty large to house 2 shooters, and as it is almost maximising what is available on my friends land the max range will be 130 Meters.

Short backstop will be a 20 foot container ( the driver tower ) that is at 57 Meters. ( we probably put targets at 50 M here, so some ways in front of container )

Middle range back stop will be a earth berm ( 180 degree turn on the now overgrown track ) its 4-5 feet tall so should do fine as is, but a pellet trap thing might well be put up there.
This is about as far as i shoot now so 88 Meters according to google maps ruler.

Finally the long range that will be the enbankment / stone wall back stop way back in the corner where i shoot to now from the other shed on the picture, but where this have been 86 Meters it will change to be a massive 130 Meters, so that should be good wholesome fun with a .177 air rifle.

A big plus, well for two fatties like us, the shed will be in the shade most of the day as it will be up against some fairly big Fir trees, so nice comfortable shade most of a summer day.
In the winter the trees also a nice wind break.

Otherwise the general direction of shooting is also pretty much clear as far as neighbours is, well unless you overshoot massive, dont hit any of the tall trees, and a .177 can fly 1/2 mile and be a problem.

The shed will start out pretty ghetto like CUZ building materials too are not cheap here either, but i recon something like 450 USD will get us started ( that is minus the heater )

"Cheap" $16 Tripod follow up!

Just wanted to follow-up on post by "Neu" last week on the $16 tripod. Might be inexpensive but certainly NOT cheap in build quality. Received my rifle clamp yesterday & immediately mounted it on tripod. SOLID! Easily & SAFELY supports my beloved guns. What an amazing deal. Thanks again Neu!!!

I had a great xmas eve...

Well, my grown kids were busy this year so it was just me and my wife. Decided to go to the casino, she walked out 600 ahead and I came out 350 ahead. Now I already have the money for my next airgun purchase, but this just made it alot easier to justify it. Now lets see, HW98 or HW97, decisions, decisions.........
