Added a Texan to my line up.... .257 named Freak.

I scored this .257 off the classifieds on Wednesday and had Tom at High Pressure Pneumatics ship everything else NDA and it all arrived in less than 24 hours!

I had been itching to shoot it and I wasn't waiting for the rain today so I took Freak out to zero her.

Well, I forgot my Allen wrenches so I literally had zero elevation adjustment and was using the top of the ep5 reticle at 25 and 100 yards 🤯🤪😅

That didn't stop me from testing and tuning though, the @alkincompressors kept everything tight with an es of 7 fps while slinging these beautiful 85 grain #avsslugs boat tails at 975 fps for 180 fpe.

The first group was during the tuning, the far left was figuring the hold at 100. The second group of 4 speaks for itself.

Sub Half moa at 100 yards lolol. 😳

It is hold sensitive but I like it. It's like she's talking to me. Needless to say...

Freak is a killer and it's time to take her the distance

Scope temperature shift fixes

I know scope shift temp changes happen with many brands of scopes which affects ranging and poi changes. How do you guys try to alleviate this as much as you can? I know trying to keep gun out of direct sunlight but that's not always possible. Cavedweller mentioned putting a white towel over it and he said it helped there in Alabama where it gets pretty hot like here in OK.

What else helps with this? Do you just figure out the temp range that it occurs and how much?

Or just get a scope that doesn't have that issue?

Thanks
Jon

Diana  Diana BANDIT with chaser combo?

Hello everyone first of all I am happy to join this forum it's my pleasure to be a member of this community
This topic is long sorry for this in advance

My name is Hani I am from Oman I already have Diana chaser combo that came with stock and longer barrel
I like the gun it's very fun and accurate but the co2 affect by weather and also it's expensive in my country the one 12g co2 cartridge cost $1 so I am thinking of getting the bandit (PCP) since I figured out they're same fit in stock so I can put the bandit in chaser stock with shoulder also the long barrel from the chaser can fit in bandit good rifle combo
And the PCP fill coat is $7 for 9L cylinder ( already have my brother owned the cylinder) !! I am wondering how many times fill the bandit 50 cc tank from 9L cylinder
So
Can this worth it? I mean I like PCP pistol for light weight and also cheaper options for my country since is the bandit is cheaper PCP gun only cost $200 and+ fit in chaser body
So my question is
Is worth to upgraded from chaser to bandit since the co2 cost more than PCP charge
I mean I am looking for more power and stable shots
Also I found PCP hand pump ( cost $65 came with extra o rings parts) is it good? I mean what the life cycle of PCP hand pump?

Hunting Iguanas With PJ! Awesome time with a friend

Hi all,

Few weeks ago I had the opportunity and honor to share a hunting day with a friend for the first time. I've known PJ for years but the relationship has been virtual lol.

Finally after years this happened. I hope you enjoy the video as much as I did!

Thanks for watching

N/A  Scope for HW50?

I have several guns setup for field target and am kind of programmed for 16x to 50x and big, long and heavy scopes. That ain't gonna work on my HW50! Want a scope that has 3-4x on low end and at least 12x, preferably 16x plus on high end. Fully aware I don't need a scope above 7-9x but set in my ways, old guys are like that. Not going to spend more on scope than I paid for gun, most of my field target scopes cost more than gun but the HW50 is a now and then shooter. Due to HW50 recoil, is etched glass reticle a must? Need some suggestions. I am considering these but looking for suggestions. Hawke 3x9 Airmax (not 12x but might work)
UTG 3x12 or 4x16 swat etched glass reticle
3x9 Leupold efr, same as Hawke, Thanks, Don

Benjamin  Wanting to try a nicer air rifle in PCP. Received new Kratos

Very first post here so please bear with me. I am not new to air guns but will be new to an accurate PCP rifle. I love accuracy and I am all about small groups and could care less about power as I have a safe full of rifles for various applications. I strive for small groups reloading for my rifles and trying various components. I am also a bullet caster for my pistols. I love to open the basement door lying prone and plink around at what ever I find. I have a metal swinging target 27yds from my basement door across the creek that sees regular 22lr use. The Gamo spring gun just doesn't cut it. I have been looking at the Kratos very hard as a wood stock is much preferred for me. Airgun revisions sells Benjamin certified slug shooters for just a few bucks more at around $600. I'm not after any bullpup rifles but I might. Pryamyd has 20% off Crossman as well right now. So, wood stock, rifle length, pretty accurate, and decent quality is what I'm after. Honestly the $500-700 range is where I'm at as after a decent scope, rings, bipod and what ever else I'll be a grand or more. I am a Chief at the local fire department so I have full access to the 6000psi air system and probably have some out of date Scott tanks laying around somewhere. I have heard of people putting sweet syrup on targets and busting bees. Sounds like fun.

Thanks guys.

PCP Rifle  NLA Wildcat gen1 .25 (Price drop)

I have Wildcat gen1 in .25 that has been tuned by Derek Wall. The man himself tuned this monster at 60 ft-lbs for almost 30 shots. The action is smooth as butter and a light quick throw. Was going to use it in the speed event at EBR but AOA only invites cool people. The wildcat is Huma regulated, power tuned, tungsten hammer, and has an extended shroud that takes out the bark out. Will come with three mags, four mag holders, and probe. The gun is very clean except for two holes on the forend where the prior owner installed a cheap picatiny rail. Asking $700 shipped CONUS. Scope and rings not included. Prefer PP FF but you'll cover G&S. I'll except PO MO from established members.

Events  EBR Thursday & Friday quick commentary

Howdy all

Well I made it 2 days helping out at EBR. I live in Phoenix but I don’t often spend all day outside on a hot day now that I am retired and I felt it, after 2 days I’m crispy.

Thursday was hot and the winds were the usual October swirling winds. The desert heating up, the surrounding mountains and the berms around the range tend to make the wind dance. Friday it heated up which whipped up the winds even more. The first group of 50 yd shooters had the worst winds with some considering it a comedic event, while other found it more frustrating. As the day went on the winds settled down but the temps went up. By the time the first group of 75 yd shooters drew aim the winds were navigational and scoring seemed to improve. AoA and Daystate along with a slew of other vendors laid out quite the smorgasbord of airguns and airgun related accessories for the raffle. Ride a Bucking Bull the longest win a $1,700.00 Tag Watch.

I was just one of many volunteers helping, I would urge everyone to volunteer to help your club or at a nearby event. Many of the volunteers also shot in matches so volunteering to help doesn’t mean you can’t shoot too.

Is FX in a “civil war” ?

First I heard their lead sales guy got fired on a dealer call and now FX USA doesn’t exist. Did some research in their home state and found this.


(If that link doesn’t work use this https://ncbc.nccourts.org/public/

Then type FX in search bar and you’ll find Rumpegarden vs FX USA )

Essentially saying Jon Tueller who I always heard owned FX USA stole a lot of money from many companies !

Sometimes it's the little things.

Sometimes it's just really hard to find that one bit. I've had multiple scenarios like this. Serch high and low. Manage to get the last one, or find the last place they can be had. Always feels good.

Been looking on and off for 2 maybe 3 years for this piece. Could not find it anywhere. My whole rifle fell one day on the end of my scope upside down, and damaged the anti-glare device on it. Bent it all out of whack. Scope never looked right without it. Plus it helps to not spook game. Finally found one, but had to use a shipping service since the retailer only ships to the UK. Not bad all in all. I've used this service before for other airgun bits. Would recommend.

Working on Ipad

My wife's ipad is so old it was no longer working properly, and I wanted to take it apart. Everyone says they're hard to disassemble, but I had no problem whatsoever. Had it apart and the battery out in less than 20 minutes. I thought some might like instructions on how to do this maintenance.
1) Load FX Royale .22 with JSB 18 gr pellets
2) set ipad to "on" and load a photo of a target on the screen and place ipad at 30 meters
3) first shot takes the target out dead center
4) second shot takes the button out cleanly
5) third shot takes out the camera cleanly
6) fourth shot clips the apple logo stem dead center
7) fire several more shots to loosen up the case
8) now the case should be easily removed and allow access to battery and internal components
