Rules that you have made for yourself as far as airgunning goes....

I was thinking about this on my ride in to work this morning. What rules have you made for yourself that you actually follow when it comes to airgunning? Or what rules have you made that you wish you have followed.

There's no secret I buy , sell, try new air rifles all the time.... with that comes buying new ammo to test in each.

Up until recently I would sell off ammo I shot from a rifle once the rifle went.

My newest rule I have been following for the last 2 months has been no SELLING any ammo. I found myself selling off stock piles of ammo taking hits on them, now I just hold onto the ammo. Amassing it so now it is never an issue of getting any when something new arrives.

Dog training ends with wife liking the Notos!

We have a very reactive German Shepherd named Amos(it's a characters name in The Expanse book & tv series and my screenname). We've done a lot of work to make him less so but one stumbling block remains. I can't pick up an airgun without Amos going crazy. I think it goes back to the first time I pulled out a bb gun and shot a chipmunk that dropped right at his feet. I pick up a gun and he just starts barking and running around losing his mind. He's smart but somehow guns short circuit his brain and he can't control himself.
Anyway I got the Notos and the story remain unchanged. My wife, to her credit, said it's time to desensitize him. So she had me grab the gun and just keep it with me all day. He would go crazy whining and barking if I shouldered the gun, which my wife had me do and just wait him out. Luckily our neighbors are pretty far off but I had to get ear plugs! Anyway we finally got him to calm down but somewhere in the process my wife said let me hold it.
Next thing you know she's asking how to cock it, how to take the safety off, and then finally she asks if I put the red dot on something will I hit it? I said yes if you are aiming at something in zeroed range. Like that can hanging on the garden fence? Again I said yes and the next thing I hear is the can being hit!
She's a freaking natural and actually had fun! I knew I should've bought a second one!
I'm hoping she'll get her hunting license and go squirrel hunting with me.
At least I have a new target shooting partner and now a dog that's finally calming down around guns! Maybe he'll get to a point where he can come hunting with me, I hope so because he sees and hears way better than me and would be a good spotter.
Either way it's a win! Never thought my wife would want to shoot! And I definitely thought I'd never have a calm dog...that's still a work in progress.

PCP slug airgun

I'm thinking I need/want a dedicated PCP slug air gun not sure which one to get. I don't think a I can really run or want to run slugs through what I already have (Sniper HP .22, FX Impact M3/compact .25, Wolverine HP .25, Concept HP .177, HW 110 .177). Caliber wise I'm thinking .25 and its intended use would be: field/varmint 75%, target 25%. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. I may be on the "One In-One Out" phase, lol.

Compressors  SOLD Yong Heng pump **FREE**

Background on this unit: purchased in 2018 and used for 2-3 hrs filling a small bottle. I got back into the sport this year and the YH was working fine until it lost pressure during a long fill on a 6.8L bottle. The unit runs fine and it isn't making any noises that would lead me to believe it's a catastrophic failure. I just don't have time to mess with it and replaced it with a GX CS4 which I think is more suited longterm to fill my large bottles. Rather than donate it to Goodwill I thought someone here might want it. It can either be picked up (I'm in N. Calif.) or if someone wants to send me a Yong Heng box with a prepaid return label I will ship it back to you using either UPS or USPS. PM me if you're interested.

The Boss is Back!

Thanks for the forum and all who post good info. and tips!

My Fx Boss 30 cal. had a leak and I could repair it! Now please don’t laugh about me, I’m not an expert servicing PCPs so this is a big achievement for me...

The leak was not obvious. It was a slow leak, about 5 BAR per day. Finally I found it was leaking through the vent hole of the regulator. Opened it, replaced the external orings of the regulator, which looked damaged (luckily had an oring kit!), assembled and filled with air. After 1 day it seemed keeping air. Then went to the chrony, numbers were good. Filled again and waited a week. It kept all air. Tested, it works as it should. Very happy.

Perhaps in these times the newer airgunners don’t know or don’t remember that it was a big HIT when the Boss first came out some 10 years ago. A 80 fpe gun, giving more than 40 regulated shots per fill, good trigger, flawless multi-shot, with a very decent noise suppression right from the factory. This was something not seen before. I bought mine new in 2013 and loved it, at 25 yards it stacks pellets all day.

So the Boss is back and ready for rock & roll!

I received the holy grail of boards for the Drozd Blackbird, also a holy grail among full auto BB guns. Shooting it evokes similar excitement I had as a kid when my mom would let me shoot the BB gun at the fair.

(Sergey’s board compared to stock)


The board is custom made by a gentleman named Sergey. It takes the blackbird from 1200 rpm to 5000 rpm. 16 volt to 25 volt capacitor with an added capacitor for the magazine to keep up with the solenoid. Also, it is more adjustable. A stock board has 3 options: single shot burst, triple, and six shot. Sergey’s board can be set from single to 10 shot and full auto. RPM ranges from 400 rpm to 5000. 12 power levels. A lot of value for a $100 upgrade that requires a little soldering.

I sure am glad we’re still able to receive goods from eastern bloc countries. Ingenuity and quality craftsmanship is embedded in their genetics. I.e. Taipan, Edgun, Ataman, Kalishnakov, Baikal, etc.

Water/Oil filter question

I've recently ordered a Uragan 2, GX compressors (CS3 and 4) scopes, mounts, bipods, you name it to play again with PCP. I've never used a water/oil filter with these in the past, but wanted to use one now. I've read many posts on here and it seems that the type with the cartridge is preferred. Will something like this suffice?

Thanks

PB long range vs Shooting long range with PCP

My son in law owns a gun school and is working his way into the precision rifle area.
He has spent a fair amount of time behind several of my guns and really enjoys shooting them and stretching the legs on them.
He asked me the other day what distance I thought shooting a PCP would equate to shooting pb’s @ 800-1000 yards.
Honestly never gave it a thought. I am sure there is some mathematical or ballistic calculation that would arrive at an accurate answer but I thought to pose the question here as there are some serious ballistic people here and a fair amount of people who like shooting their PCP’s at distance and it may create an interesting discussion.
So, anyone have an idea or a factual answer?

Tuning  Weird FX Maverick ?

I will try to explain this best I can as I don’t think this is usual. I have a 25 Maverick compact. I currently run the second reg about 100 bar. The first reg was around 135-140 but I bumped it a little but not sure exactly. Anyway, I tuned the gun at 100 bar on PW 7 to get the max speed for 25.39 with the internal adjuster. I then turned the internal screw down just a touch when I found this point. Now that puts me around 900-912 fps very consistently. I also have a digital gauge on my gun. I notice if I shoot power wheel 7 that reg recovers right near that 100 bar every time. Now the weird part. Drop to PW 5 and as I shoot and watch the digital gauge the plenum starts to fill to a lower pressure than pw 7 and where it was set to begin with. It will start filling to 97 bar. Extreme spread suffers on 5 but most shots stay 860’s -870 some in the 880’s. However it will inevitably shoot a dud somewhere in the string like clock work. It will be like 840 or 830. When this happens the plenum pressure doesn’t even recover to 97. It might be like 95 bar. Then the gun will fire one or two additional low power shots, seemingly until enough air is taken out of the plenum that it recharges properly. It’s weird. Basically as you strike the valve with less power the plenum fills to a lower pressure. I don’t think this is usual. I’m curious who makes a better reg than these stupid amp regs for a Maverick as it seems a reg issue. Oh, and I am waiting a long time between shots to ensure replenish time. I guess does anyone else with a digital gauge on their Maverick notice this trend at lower power wheel settings?

Red magazine for a Leshiy 2 in caliber 177 (4.5 mm)

Hello, I registered here some time ago and so far I have really enjoyed reading the great posts.
Because I'm not yet allowed to post in the classifieds thread, I'll write this here and hope that I haven't done anything
wrong in this forum.
I have a Leshiy 2 in .177 caliber. I am extremely happy with her. I come from good old Germany ;-).

Mod edited content: does anyone know where I might find a spare .177 magazine?

Please don't be angry if I'm in the wrong thread with my post, unfortunately I don't know my way around here very well.
Thank you and I wish you a nice week.

Don't TRUST your Safety (NEW GUN)

This is a brand new .25 Power Pup, fresh out of the box.

ALWAYS check the Safety on a NEW GUN! I was just lucky I didn't find this out the hard way.


P.S. Nothing against this manufacturer. It could have been a 1 in 1 million chance and I happened to get it. If it was actually a problem, people would say, "That happened to me"...but I doubt that will be the case.
