Steyr  Steyr Pro X....Interesting Air Gun.

My Steyr Pro X is a difficult gun not to like...Shot a few groups today at 30 and 45 yards using JSB 18s. This platform isn't one to make big HSA adjustments at least mine doesn't like big adjustments...too much or too little and the mag will jam...but my guns sweet spot happens to be 874 fps...right where I wanted it anyway...shooting off the attached bipod and bag in the rear on my plastic bench dime size groups at 30 and sub quarter at 45 y were easy...trigger isn't capable of much better but good enough. This gun can sure go through a bunch of pellets and I didn't keep track of the shot count but must be around 70+.Dosn't like Crosman domes at all...So 874 fps 30+ fpe dime at 30 quarter or better at 45 without cocking...(has better in it with better bench) interesting

Diana  Diana Model 75 a little disappointing

I just got a diana model 75 yesterday, it looks very nice so I think it is ready to shoot. I spend about an hour to cleaning and oil it up to made she looks prettier. The wood stock is very good and the bluing is shiny, cocking is smooth and I really like the cocking sound, the trigger is very light. I was very excited and I fired it, and then the pellet didn't move. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
I really like the rifle, but I know model 75 is hard to repair especially that I have two stupid hands.

In other news, something funny from the NRL22 rules

This has a field target tie-in, trust me. Here is a quote from the NRL22 rule book:

"Adaptive division is an optional division that will be available to any competitor that has special needs/considerations severely limiting their ability to participate in the match as written. This division is intended to allow participation in the monthly NRL22 courses of fire for individuals who are no longer able to perform a significant amount of the motions published within the course of fire. A few examples would be competitors who have had spinal fusions preventing prone positions, or competitors who have declined mobility due to many years of living life to the fullest, or folks who have a passion for precision rifle but shooting the published course of fire would result in a long drive home in pain followed by another day or two of being stiff and sore. It is up to the Adaptive division participants to have reviewed the course of fire prior to the local match. An example would be utilizing a tripod and stool instead of shooting prone, or using a stool when shooting from the saw horse or tank trap tips."

This made me laugh. If we had a similar division in FT, 95% of FT shooters would qualify for the adaptive division.

Bleeding water from tanks and guns.

Just wanted to see what others thoughts on this are. Both scuba and SCBA tanks valve assemblies have a tube that extends down into the tank a few inches. This is an important safety feature for breathing use as it prevents any water that might be in the tank from entering the valve and being inhaled by the user. For an airgunner however it is undesirable as it prevents us from bleeding out any water that might collect in our tanks. Removing this tube would most likely cause the tank to fail any visual inspection by a dive shop or other commercial source of air, so that's one potential downside of eliminating it.

It seems that it should also be possible to blast water out of the reservoir of a rifle by orienting the rifle so that any water within it will drain to it's lowest point and then dry firing it to expel it. The exact positioning may vary from gun to gun, but it seems that if you were to store the rifle overnight so that any moisture in it would collect where the valve feeds from and then dry firing the rifle while retaining it in that position should expel any water in it that has collected.

Beeman  New P3

Over Thanksgiving I was opening emails from PA promoting Black Friday sales and I have never tried to take advantage of that before, but I was curious about the offers. Before I finished looking at one discount, I would get an email offering a better one. When I thought I had the hang of it I ordered a Beeman P3. About an hour later I got another email offering an even better discount. Oh well.

It arrived today and my first thought was how it looked like a plastic toy. That is because it is all plastic (polymer) on the outside. I wanted another SSP to go with my HW75 and as much as I love wood and steel, I also knew I could trust Weihrauch, who makes it along with the identical HW40. Picking it up it felt like a toy too, it's very light. Never cared much for fiber optic sights but I knew it wouldn't matter as I always get the irons on a new gun zeroed and then put some kind of optic on due to 74 year old eyes. I knew it would shoot well since it has the same power plant as my HW75.

So, I braved the grey, wet, November weather in the 40's and took it to the backyard range. Lots of surprises there.

I could not hit a thing. My first attempts were offhand at close range, one hand and two hand, and I was clueless where the pellets were going. I moved in from 10 to 3 yards and yup, the sights were on paper at least. I am not that bad with a handgun and the pistol felt good in the hand, seemed steady enough as I let off a shot, but I could not hit anything. So, I got on the bench and shot groups at 10 yards with 10 different pellets. I was getting huge groups at first but then I started experimenting with my hold. It's not a springer so that should not matter but boy did it. When I finally tried a very firm hold it started to shoot. I don't think I ever shot any handgun this badly but with a tight grip it turned out just fine. Benchrest, one hand offhand or two hand offhand it wants to be held tight. Not firm but downright tight. Guess it is the light weight.

Got good groups with all ten pellets but it liked RWS R10 Match the best with one hole groups. The others got good groups if I throw out one flyer because every single one of them had a tight 4 shot group but one flyer. Has to be me.

Turns out I like fiber optic sights after all, at least these particular ones. I can see both front and back dots very clearly and this was in poor light conditions. Heck at my age I can't see anything clearly, much less iron sights. I may try an optic for kicks, but I think this one will be shot with irons.

The trigger is simply outstanding right out of the box. It still looks like a toy pistol, and I still have more to learn about how to get the most out of it, but it is a keeper.

240 yards potato shot attempts with my Impact

Found a dirt mount at 240 yards to shoot at while waiting for starlings to return. This was my first ever attempt at this distance. After hitting 4 shots at the top of the dirt mount, I placed a potato (3-1/2" size) there to see if I could hit it. Well, it took me 17 shots to finally hit it and shot 23 to knock it off the mount. It was fun!

Enjoy.

  • Question
JTS  Anyone having a moderator clipping problem on Airacuda Max .30 ?

Anyone having a moderator clipping problem on Airacuda Max .30 ?

3 Dec 2023 UPDATE. I received another Max in 30 caliber from Pyramyd Air a few days ago. This replaced my previous three Max, one in each caliber that were clipping moderators due to a manufacturing defect in the air gun not the moderator. This defect has been extensively reported and commented on through most of the appropriate forms. So it's likely my new Max in 30 caliber was from a batch wherein the defect has been corrected. That means that I shot my Airacuda Max in 30 caliber with the Ronan 35 caliber moderator and it did not clip and it shot very accurately and substantially reduced the report.

Brocock/BRK  It appears our house is haunted with 👻's

A new 👻 followed me home and I just got it all set up. Hope to get it sighted in tomorrow.

Meet Tigger.....

Currently Tigger is sporting a 30 Cal barrel, but Buster is totally willing to share the 22 carbine, or the 177 HP barrel.

Some may ask where Specter went.....Well when your son comes out to shoot EBR with his parents, falls in love with the sport and the 👻 platform...Well lets just say our son's house is haunted as well.
