Taipan  Quirk with the vet 1

I know at least 5 guys who can answer this one. My 5 year old venerable vet 1 has this odd issue. When I fill to 230-250 bar, my shots are not as powerful. When the reg lowers towards 200 bar, the power increases, raising my POI. But from say, around 205 bar down to the reg pressure, shot strength is as consistent as you would expect. Is my reg getting worn/sloppy? It’s a huma, about 2-3 years old.

Other  What $250 means to me

Had an interesting observation yesterday - I made a list of recently purchased springers under $250, and a second list of $250+ springers.
On the under 250 side were 10 Diana rifles, and 2 HW's (one was bought as a project gun, the other was a lucky gun store find). On the $250+ side were 2 Diana's and 9 HW's.
Most guns were bought used or if new, as a refurb or on sale. The two "N" stocked HWs were full price though.

Considering that I respect my Diana's in very nearly the same way I do the HWs I own, this shows me that there's a lot of value in searching out good Diana rifles.

Wondering how many of you see things the same way?

Calling All Airgun Coyote Hunters!!

With all of the questions frequently surfacing about airguns and suggestions for hunting coyotes and dispatching problematic coyotes, WHERE ARE THE COYOTE AIRGUN HUNTERS? Where are the threads and photos? The forums get peppered with threads and the same types of questions about hunting coyotes because you're afraid they'll eat the outside cats or scale your backyard fence, eat your pooch, and jump back over your fence without consequence. So who's actually hunted a coyote with an airgun after utilizing the plethora of advice and information obtained and compiled in our wonderful forums?

Strelock , what the H?

shooting Maverick 700 x 25 x 24 twist, JSB Mark II. 872 fps. zeroed 45 yds. 3" scope height. No Wind. Athlon BTR 6x24. shooting on 16x
okay here we go. this thing shoots aces @ 100, 125,150!
Strelock says 100 3.6 Actual 1.8
125 5,8 3.8
150 8.3 5.8
I really can't figure this out. is there a problem with the program? I doubt it! what would be a work around to adapt ranging?
while I'm at it, why does Strelock drag information in other rifles programs. if I put a drop profile in on this gun and then I go to a cricket it uses the mav profile in the cricket or what ever gun. Hep Me!!!

Hello All! New to the PCP world here.

As the title stated, I am fairly new to the world of owning a PCP. Been scrolling through the forums for a little bit when I first got my Umarex Notos late last year. I can fully say that I am addicted as I recently purchased another PCP the Dynamic Compact in .22 cal. This is also my first big purchase and so I have decided to join the forum officially and I hope I can learn as much as possible from everyone on here.

I was fascinated by PCP many years ago when a family member use to own an Airforce airgun. He would let me shoot that thing whenever I felt like and it has never left my mind to this day how amazing it was. I just wanted to make my first post introducing myself on here.

HW/Weihrauch  42 groups from 5 Weihrauchs.

I continued shooting this morning with a few different rifles. Here's all the results. The good, the bad and the ugly. They're all 5 shots at 25 yards. I did better earlier this morning for a few reasons. I'm just glad to be shooting these again. I'll have to set up some fun targets next.

Be well
Ron.

Umarex  Old Noob got a NOTOS - detuning?

When my young TN friend visited me in Iowa this past weekend he provided me his FX Streamline .22 which is deathly quiet like my custom tuned AA S200 .177. He also gave me a NIB Notos and said it probably needs a slight detune as he suspects they max these things out at the factory. I've got a chrony, the tools, and some rudimentary knowledge of PCP air rifles. How "low can I go" or can't I improve efficiency (noise) by merely adjusting the hammer spring screw? I have no plans on shooting this Notos past 35 yrds and it will have a red dot on it to keep it light and "handy."

Element scopes. So many too choose. Which one?

So I am looking for a decent scopes. I don't need the best of the best. I dont need to spend a thousand dollars in a scope alone. I'm just a guy with a family to feed. So saving money is Important. I am looking at the element scopes cause I watch Matt dubb and Ted holdover. They talk a lot about these scopes and claim they are like the best for airgunners. I looked into the elements scopes and there are so many too choose from. I don't need to best, but I also don't need to worst. Anyone know anything about these elements scopes can help me out. I just need a middle ground scopes that doesn't break the bank. Looking between $300-500 budget. Guns I will be putting it on would be an .22lr ruger, fx impact, Benjamin marauder. I see there are the nexus, nexus gen 2, theos, helix, titan. What are the different and which one should I go for.

American Air Arms  An inside look at the AAA Slayer

IMG_0842.jpeg


The Slayer appears to be a simple platform until you take it apart and see not only the excellent machining but each piece is masterfully designed for its purpose.

IMG_0851.jpeg


The balanced valve is much different from the ones I’ve seen. Instead of the venting chamber being inside of the valve stem, it is a part of the valve body. A valve return spring is not used. So when the rifle is degassed the poppet is lifted off the valve seat and remains that way. When airing the rifle back up it leaked through the valve because the poppet was off the valve seat. Gave it a strong blast of air from the tank but it still wouldn’t seal. I took off the air tube to access the poppet and pushed it down to seal the valve.
IMG_0852.jpeg



The retractable probe is an innovative design. When the rifle is cocked the probe releases an extension that will push the projectile into the barrel. Upon closing the probe a spring loaded mechanism is triggered and retracts the probe. This creates an unobstructed path for air to flow. Also contributing to optimal airflow are the angled and radiused ports. These are mods that guys will do to their rifles but Tom had the foresight to incorporate them into the design.

The moderator is a modular design built specifically for the Slayer. It is well built and does a good job at taming the bark despite being smaller than what is normally used for a big bore. Not backyard friendly but ear friendly.

IMG_0894.jpeg


The trigger does not feel like a Bullpup trigger. There is no slop and it has crisp break.

So far I am very impressed by the quality of craftsmanship and design that went into the Slayer. Had fun resealing this one. Now I just have to find the time to get to the range and shoot it!

Best and Worst Cheap Pellets

Just wondering what everyone's experiences have been. What have you found to be a bargain, what should just be melted down for lead and what are they selling for per pellet?

I've had very good luck with H&N FTT's in .177, 8.64 gr. and .22 Baracudas in 18.1 gr. I get great accuracy out to 50 yards and beyond with them. All prices here are after factoring in the 4th free tin at Pyramyd. The H&N's are 2.1 cents a shot in .177 and 3 cents in .22. Not super cheap, but not bad either and almost all of my guns like them.

Lately I've also been shooting .22 Norma 15.9 grain pellets at 2.25 cents a shot and 14.3 grain Crosman Premiers at 1.7 cents per shot. No complaints so far, but I haven't really done any bench rest shooting with them either.

One variety I had very bad luck with and now avoid are the Crosman pointeds. I'm not sure what I paid for them, but I got two tins with varying head sizes. Some would easily slip into the breech of my HW30 and others had to be forced in smashing the skirts in the process. They are one of the cheapest pellets out there, but in my experience they still aren't worth it.

I recently noticed that after discounts .177 Norma pellets are less than a penny a shot and I'm planning on buying a few thousand of them.

PCP Rifle  SOLD .177 DreamTact Compact (reduced again)

Looking to sell my very little used .177 DreamTac Compact. I bought this from the owner of 910 Airguns and this was his personal airgun. My plan with this pcp was for night time pigeon blasting but things never panned out. Everything has been worked over on this DreamTac. The trigger is light and crisp, the lever has a shorter lever for fast reloading, has a larger aftermarket bottle which gets over a hundred shots at 18 ft-lbs, and is Huma regulated. $1300 shipped CONUS PPFF or PO MO from long standing AGN members. Comes with Discovery 3-12x44 SF, cantilever mount, two .177 mags, 2 .25 quick loaders, and 5 .25 mags, and the Doni. $850 shipped CONUS for just the PCP and 2 .177 mags. Bipod not included in the sale.
