Airacuda Max is a very accurate PCP for the money but I have made a discovery that will probable make me go mad or madder . You must remove the stock in order to adjust hammer spring . I do this and use a crony to get the velocity just right .Example 875 fps and install back into stock and depending on how tight the stock screw is I end up 20 to 40 fps slower .Just setting it into stock makes 10 or 15 fps diff . I was very happy not knowing this . Any thoughts can only be helpful . Or not !

Or is it just more power at current hammer setting/keep same power with less hammer....

What does your open sights, sight picture look like?

I’ve been shooting my Diana 54 with open sights at 30yards, using a bright orange 1.5inch (39mm) diameter sticker as my aim point.

Would you place the orange sticker “on top” of your front sight, or use your front sight to “cover half” of the orange circle?
Would you use a bigger sticker to aim at, and if so what size?

What do you find makes the best target to aim at with open sights?

To all you Impact owners out there, why is it that so many good tunes require the power wheel set at 16? Pellet size and velocity doesn’t seem to matter. Makes me wonder what all the lower numbers are for.

So what the heck is up with the Red Panda's.... Only a small batch came threw then nothing.. Cricketssss....
They were suppose to be all the hype with new models being delivered in june.. August still nothing. nothing in the news about red panda. No ones talking. no one is making videos.. Nothing.

Does anybody knows what kind of air pistol the olympic turkish shooter Yosuf Dikec use to win the silver medal 10 meters ?

New to pcp's. Valve bouncing, company sent free replacement spring but heavier and wrong dimensions. Not sure if worth the effort to make work or just wait for another.
This is for .457 Challenger Elite.

Have any of you heard the old technique of shooting cross eyed?

My father was a crack shot. He was unbelievable with a rifle. His father was a rifleman and taught him to shoot when he was very small. He was raised during the depression in rural west Texas hunting for what he ate. He was a rifleman in the Korean war and then a “sniper” in the early days of Viet Nam. He was well trained. He hunted every big game animal in the west and a bunch in SE Asia. He guided hunts in Wyoming for years. When he spoke about shooting I listened.

He said that whenever he shot offhand he shot cross eyed. He was trained to do that with iron sights in the military. He would focus on the front bead with both eyes open until his eyes crossed and then “time slowed down”. His movements seemed slower and he could easily time the trigger with his wobble. “It’s as easy as shooting basketballs when your eyes are crossed”.

He said he did the same thing in a scope. But he focused on the target so hard that time slowed. His crosshairs floating in the foreground were more controllable and his trigger timing was better.

I mastered the scope technique pretty quickly. At least to some extent. I wasn’t crosseyed. But in the scope its easy to get an altered state going. An intense target focus will improve trigger timing for sure. I didn’t realize how effective it was until I applied it to iron sights.

Over the years I have shot very little with iron sights. Mainly pistol. And I never really tried focusing that hard on the bead. But when I couldn’t keep a scope on a cheap air rifle I decided to experiment with iron sights. Of course I thought of my father. And immediately wanted to learn how to “shoot cross eyed”.

After some practice and research I can tell you that there IS something to it. There is a point where depth drops away, the entire world is a blur and the only thing in your consciousness is the front post and a blur of the target beyond. Time slows down. As you come across your target in your wobble you have lots of time to initiate the shot.

It really is like basketball. You look for an opening, time your jump and fling the ball. It is MUCH easier to hit your target especially when a lot of movement is involved. I’m convinced this is how some guys hit targets thrown in the air with a rifle.

My observation is that when all your external input is focused on the bead your brain has more time to process movements. It isn’t busy with depth, surroundings, things like that. It processes input faster because it has less to do. Things seem “slower”. You are simply focusing all your brain power on the task at hand by limiting visual input.

We all know how poorly we shoot when we have internal and external input bombarding us. It makes sense if you get rid of ALL input by “crossing your eyes” and intensely focusing its going to help. Especially with chaos around you.

My father didn’t rationalize it much. He just listened to his training and practiced it. And tried to teach it to me. I’m just beginning to understand those lessons.

I understand some guys teach this in combat pistol training. You practice until you come on target “cross eyed” and focusing on the bead. Your target is blurry in the background.

It’s just eye exercises mainly. You could learn it sitting in front of the television and never fire a shot. I believe it would vastly improve accuracy with a revolver.

I still can’t do it “at will”. I struggle to get that focus point sometimes. Sometimes I can’t maintain it through the shot. I’m getting better at it though. If I was 16 again I could probably master it in an hour.

If I do it too much my eyes are hard to get back in focus. My eyeballs are old and lop sided. They probably have all the tread worn off the back from rubbing against my head. I don’t want to push it too hard or I might have a flat.

When things are just right I can shoot more accurately than I could ever imagine. I am absolutely stunned and amazed how effective this technique is.

I’m sure others employ this or some other similar techniques in their routine. Does anyone out there have a shortcut to a zen like state that allows them to time a shot better?

Excellent condition, no leaks/problems, shoots very well with JSB 10.3 (only pellet it has shot). Original box, paperwork, magazine, SS tray, two fill probes, 0DB 110c included (0DB does have some scratches). Happy to send more photos or answer any questions you have about the rifle.

I received mine Friday afternoon.

I have been playing with it and have to say it’s a well balanced shooter.

Anyone else receive their first batch Zelos ?

If you have post a pic of your gun.

Picked up a used 20 cal 95 yesterday in very good condition and came with a few thousand pellets most ftt and a tin of barracudas.
I headed straight to the range and mounted an old nikko stirling I had on another gun and sited in. Barracudas, ftts and jsb all grouped well.
Chronograph showed 7fps variation over 10 shots (699-692) 6 shots were 698.
I noticed it was a little gritty to cock accompanied with a honking noise. Firing cycle very twangy but no loss of sit picture.
Fully stripped the gun degreased an relubed and cocking feels like a completely different gun.
The seal looks worse for wear but is giving really consistent results.

Do I change the seal? If so should I go the red concave seal or green eco seal from custom air seals?

Cheers

This particular wishlist item is for 30 cal. Moderate power, slugs are for another gun. This one would be pellet solely. Quiet is nice, price hopefully ballpark $1800. Lastly, can fit polymags without cutting the tip. I’m thinking uragan 2. What others come to mind?

FX V2 pocket Chronograph
I have 2 of these chronos both new within the last month. Got a good deal on a garmin so these are headed out. 150 each shipped. Little discount if someone wants them both.

As stated above, 7 tins of .30 Polymags (some with more than amount stated on tin). $50 takes all. You pay shipping. PayPal, F&F.

Received FX DRS .25 cal 700 mm barrel yesterday. The store completely prepped the gun
after seven shots today (first shooting) something blew out … air hit me in the face …. Gun was not highly pressured…. Presently will not hold air
will return to dealer Monday for replacement
how often does this occur ? I am quite. Ew to sir guns

Hi everyone!

I wanted to post an update to my HW77 journey. This rifle has been a real treat. I replaced my shattered factory spring with a Vortek kit this week. The results are pretty fantastic!

Accuracy did not improve, and I didn’t really expect it to. The rifle has been a very consistent 10 shot - 2.5 moa performer since I got it. That didn’t change all throughout the factory spring’s life, and hasn’t changed now with the Vortek kit.

While I had it apart, it got a cleaning and lube job. It feels like a million bucks again. Tight and slick. The shot report could best be described as a ker-snick! Much improved over the un-shattered factory spring. From the factory, the gun was like holding a baseball bat when a ball hits the tip of the bat. Youch!

Anyways, enjoy some pictures! The group is 5 shots, standing unsupported at 20m.





I am dubbing this one “the Whooper” after the namesake swan, Finland’s national bird.

With a long barrel, like the long neck of a swan, it just seems fitting. In Finnish folklore, it is said that the Whooper is the messenger between the living and the dead. Let’s see if I’ll need to deliver any messages this season!

Thanks for reading, have a great one.

So I have decided on the purchase of a 30 PCP. I allready own an FX Crown Contiuum in .25. It does an amazing job but as I have stated in a previous post it seems to lack killing power on woodchucks out to like 125 yards. I am able to hit them but they almost always seem to find their way back into their hole. I know that the FX line is going to put more of a hurt in my wallet, but so far my choices are the FX Crown...Panthera 70mm ...Dynamic express 700mm. The reason for the last two is basically they are more dedicated slug rifles. Also length is not that much of a concern because I usually shoot from a good solid base. Also at this time it seems like Utah Airguns have these ready to go.
So what are your airgunners thoughts on this? Is there others out there that I should consider? The RAW looks like a good choice also.
Your imput would be greatle appreciated!!
Thanks!

Valve is very hard to unscrew with 150/200bar!
i never had a PCP Noow I have the P44 from Feinwerkbau but the old cylinder just reach 110bar só is easy to unscrew!
I wanna know of is dificul to
unscrew a cylinder with 150/200bar or something like that high pressures?
thank you
PS- im saying unscrew
