Hey everyone, i use a M3 in .25cal first reg at 175bar , second at 155 bar and use 41g slugs at 960-965fps on power setting 16 and for 33.95g king heavy mk2s at about 960fps i use power setting 10. Last night i was doing some chrono testing and i noticed the velocity would jump 10-15 fps higher when the second reg hadnt recovered properly ( it would stick at about 145bar) but after another shot was fired the plenum would refill properly and the second reg would then settle back to where it should be, thus giving me my normal expected velocity for the 33.95g pellets.
Is there anything i can do to remedy this slow reg recovery/sticking ? Would changing the second reg washer stack do anything? Or maybe install a huma reg??

I found this on Facebook by Steve Brew in the UK. It makes sense to me because it will keep the O rings from drying out and give some lubricity to metal surfaces rather than metal-on-metal contact. Rifle manufacturers are silent on this subject and I would like your and their opinion.

Tip of the week and secret disclosure of mine!
Ever wonder why you occasionally get low velocities or poor ES and SD’s, keep reading.
So with PCP airguns we are supposed to use clean filtered dry air as a fuel source for our airguns.
However this does comes with a draw back because a PCP airgun consists of many moving parts and orings. Each time we shoot there is a blast of high pressure air that rushes through the system, regulators open and close each time we shoot, valves open and close, valve rods slide inside and through orings, oring expand and contract etc not to mention that the orings become work hardened and brittle over time.
Each time we shoot, the high pressure air blows out and drys out the system, (we hang out washing out side to dry in the wind!)
The high pressure, high flow air drys out the system and blows out the assembly lubricants.
Adding 1x little drop of pure silicone oil into the Foster fill port every 4-5 full fills will help reduce wear on all internal components of your air rifle. When you add a drop of silicone oil into the fill port and then fill up your gun bottle, the silicone oil atomises under high pressure.
Each time you fire a shot you essentially coat all your internals and moving parts of the rifle, regulator, valve rod, valves, friction surfaces etc etc
This not only prolongs the life expectancy of your internals but also keeps things moving more consistently due to less friction and stiction.
And your orings will last much longer also due to remaining more supple and pliable.
Just be mindful to use just 1x drop and dont use to much, more is not better and you only need a tiny amount as it atomises under pressure to form a oily mist.
Get some silicone oil and start adding it to your routine!

Hello everyone,

I was down to 4 JSB Exact Heavy .177 cal 10.34gr pellets in a Tin and put them in a magazine and then opened a new Tin. I started to fill the magazine when I noticed that the new pellets looked different from the previous 4 from the Skirt view. Now I wish that I had saved the first four because I don’t have any of the “original” to compare the new ones with.

Anyway I had been shooting a 25-Yard MOA target and after filling the magazine I continued to shoot the target. First four shots all within the MOA Ring, and then the rest of my shots were all over the target. A few within the MOA Ring but the rest were all outside.

I am attaching two photos of the “new pellet” and wonder if anybody happens to have any of the older version and can take a photo like my two for a comparison.

Has anybody herd if JSB has changed the 10.34? I sure hope not I just bought 5 Tins and the old style have been extremely accurate.

Hey there folks,
I made this simple "application" for phones, that doesn't require an installation at all - whether you believe it or not, it's just a text file, that you can modify to your needs, or to your liking for that matter, and that's it. First of all, one you've put your pellet drop-off points (for individual distances, either in yds or in meters) on a piece of paper, then you can start positioning the drop points onto the reticle in the program, by coding them in yourselves. Of course, I'll have to explain how to do it first, since most of you probably aren't familiar with web coding technologies, such as: HTML, css, JavaScript, XML... et cetera.

Here's how this "program/app" looks in Google Chrome on my phone:



OK, so the image below shows five paragraphs of code circled in red... by manipulating the 'cx' and the 'cy' values you can move the coloured dots, representing your DOPE/drop-off points, around, so that they'll correspond to the scheme on your piece of paper. The reticle that I have in most of my scopes is the Mil-Dot and that's why I decided to use that as a template for the reticle in the program. There are 5 distances for adjustment in the program, these are at 10, 25, 50, 75 and at 90 yards/meters, depending on what you'd like to go with. So, in order to adjsust the points with the code, you have to manipulate the values of the cx and the cy variables. To move a certain point horizontally, along the X axis, only change, or otherwise adapt, the values in the brackets following the variables... i.e. from cx="350" to cx="300" ... now you've moved an individual point to the left (adjust as much as you have to, in order to get the right, corresponding result). Same goes for verticality, example given; Adjust from cy="200" to cy="250" ...to go down, or from 200 to 160 to go up.



I was using Notepad++ to make this, the code here is also opened with Note++.



Now, I don't know if I can upload .HTML files here, google usually doesn't allow that, and that's why I'm going to upload a .txt file, that you have to rename from DOPE_sheet_plan.txt to DOPE_sheet_plan.html ...and that's it. From here on you can OPEN and EDIT the said .html file with either the basic notepad, or you can download Notepad++ for free and use that to edit the code. By the way, you can also rename and edit the file on your phones, even though it's probably going to be a bit more tricky to locate the needed lines of code for manipulating the dots. And of course, you can open the .html file on your phones with either Chrome, Mozzila or some other browser.

I hope you'll find this thing somewhat useful, I certainly do, because I usually forget scope holdovers on my guns and then I'm completely in the dark about my point of reference with aiming, or rangefinding for that matter. I uploaded this .html file on my phone and I'm using it quite often, I have to say... And since I found it useful, someone else here could find it so too.

The DOPE_sheet_plan.txt text file should be somewhere down here...

My Taipan has a cz barrel. Looking for the most accurate speed for long distance pesting. I read somewhere that they shoot better the faster you push them.

Just bought a HW30 used , has no SS# that i can see unless under the wood . stamped on one side it has , Weihrauch Mellrichstad-Bay also had the rounded hand grip .
Any way to obtain info on this

Thought I'd throw this out there. With all the different variants, models & materials available to us now I was curious about the comfort-of-hold aspect that any particular gun has for you. After being totally consumed by airguns for the last 6 years I've gotten to try & own MANY. For me, it has to be my pepper laminate FX Boss. I seem to meld with that gun like no other. The contours of the stock fit me like a glove & as soon as I put my cheek to it I feel as though it's part of me. No need to adjust my eye for sight relief or shifting of shoulder to get it right. NONE of the tactical style guns I've tried comes anywhere close to the classic style & wood stock for comfort & natural feel. I'm not talking precision or accuracy here, just downright COMFORT of a PERFECTLY FITTING gun. How bout you? Which one "does it" for you & why?

Hello, I started my Airgun journey a few months ago. I will have to say that I'm totally hooked. I started out with a Daisy 880 just a few months ago and now my collection has grown and I don't think it's going to stop growing. From what I have seen in this forum I'm glad there is a good community behind airguns. Looking forward to enjoying the hobby.

Looking to see which ones you like the best

Not sure if anybody who is into the R&D part of our sport has thought of this or not. So here is my idea: With the new Panthera, when you add the bottle to the front we loose the entire rail system. Would it be possible to make bottle clamps, I am thinking 2 would be needed, that had threaded inserts so we could bolt the OEM hand guard/m-lok to them. We would still loose the over barrel portion. I know there are different bottles, with different diameters so this would have to be taken into account. I think somebody with the ability to CAD and 3D print could make this a viable option for us.

Whatever the weather later I am pitting my HW110 scoped PCP against my springer HW77 with open sights. I have a job to do first to keep SWMBO off my back and then let battle commence. Six Bulls each I think. Common sense says the HW110 will take it but I think anything could happen. Bit bored Yup. Back later

FX Airguns was honored to be a title sponsor of the first annual North East Airgun Classic in New Hampshire at the Sig Sauer Academy. There were over 100 registered shooters competing for their share of $30,000 in prize money in the following events: 100 yrd Benchrest, Precision Shooting Challenge (PRS-style event), Pro-Am and the Squatch-Bomb Challenge (Long-Range challenge to 300 yrds).


The 100 yard benchrest was narrowed to 15 final competitors that competed in a rain delayed final on Sunday. The weather provided a clear challenge with wind and rain upping the degree of difficulty.


FX Airguns shined in astounding form. Though multiple manufacturer’s rifles were being used, the lineup of finalists seemed to almost entirely consist of the FX Impact (with the exception being one FX Crown in the mix!). The finals were very competitive with only 12 points seperately 1st place from 10th place (and x3 tied just one point behind 1st place!). The winner of the 100 yrd benchrest was Adam Migel who was shooting a .30 Cal FX Impact M3 (with Air Marksman Backbone & Anvil rail). Adam made the trip from Utah and walks away with $5,000 as the overall 100yrd Benchrest winner.


Placing 2nd was Kate Jacobson (daughter of Utah Airguns owner Justin Jacobson) who was shooting her FX Impact M3, and Thayne Simmons from Saber Tactical taking 3rd place with his FX Impact M3 (and using Saber Tactical gear of course included the double tank adapter). They won $2,500 and $1,000 respectfully. Congratulation to all finalists and for the support from those who attended the event.


The North East Airgun Classic was a resounding success and competitors clearly enjoyed having a great east coast event so early in the year. John, Frank and the entire team and volunteers at North East Airguns did a fantastic job in their first ever event. It also should be noted that this was the first event to have all competitors scores be recorded for the ProAir Federation rankings. The ProAir organization is currently rolling out beta testing with a few select airgun clubs and are set to officially launch in the coming months.

The next post will cover the Precision Rifle event and the long distance Squatch-Bomb challenge. Look forward to seeing everyone at the next scheduled major airgun competition, the 2023 Rocky Mountain Airgun Challenge!

I am looking to get a scope somewhere in this price range. I'd like to get something like an Arken or Athlon Midas Tac type scope?

How does one go about determining how much an item is worth that they would like to sell?

In 2-3 months i m getting a second rifle as my local range expands to 200/300/400 meters so i m starting doing my homework.

I have a gauntlet2 .30 that shoots fine out to 100 meters but i d like something else for longer range.

Budget is around 1500$, must be .25cal and must have a magazine,otherwise i would have already got a texan. I will only be using slugs,so no chocked barrels. Bonus if it s tactical form factor.

*When i m saying powerful,i mean in relation with flatter "bullet" trajectory.

I d like to hear your suggestions,apart from FX guns as i already did my research on them and tried them from others at the range.
