N/A  Recommendations for a British PCP

Every time I get out my 20+ year old TX200 I'm impressed with both the build quality and accuracy of the gun. It rivals some of my pcps for accuracy. That got me thinking about trying a British made pcp. I've got an FX, RAWs plus several less expensive pcps. What would be a good British made pcp in the $1,000 to $1,500 price range? I would like something that won't need a lot of tinkering to get it to shoot well and not too big and heavy. Would something by Daystate or Brocock be a possibility?

Other  Best semi auto air pistol for rattlesnakes?

So I live on 3 acres in the county (not city regulated) and my mom just two days ago got bit by a rattlesnake. I'm looking for a little .177 pistol we cam carry that will get the job done. I really enjoy having things of quality that last, so price isn't too much of a factor.
I am currently getting the gk1 shorty, but that won't be for this. I really just want a smaller little pellet pistol that will get the job done for small stuff like a rattler. No blowback cuz that's ridiculous, and the more power the better. C02 is best, but I'm not against a pcp. I've so far looked at the baretta 92fs and the gamo p430, as well as the cp88.
Really for it's use, I just want something that can kinda be thrown around not worrying about how much it costs. But also powerful enough to get the job done.
I know it's a bit of a loaded question lol but really if it gets the job done the gamo p430 may be best in my eyes due to cost. It's not like for $200 more, it would be that much more powerful. What are your thoughts

RAW Rapid  RAW HM1000X-MPA Chassis

20240824_130910.jpg

Don't know the history of this rifle.

Shot it for the first time 08-24.

Used the .22 14 grain Crosman Premier Hollow Points while testing grips, thumb rests and finger spacers

When I put together the correct setup this rifle shot like nothing else I own. The trigger is absolutely fantastic.

It is tuned for 22 grain pellets so the 14's are being spanked a bit hard and thus have a very, very, fast loud bark in protest, but I still was able to put together ragged one hole 5 shot groups at 20 yards.

I have an ARCA to PICATINNY coming which should allow me to better balance the rifle on the bipod for my style of shooting.

The HM1000X is a fantastic build and the MPA Chassis is an absolutely stunning piece of very functional metalwork.

HW/Weihrauch  What's the opposite of a safe queen...?

Bought an original design HW85 today, comp tube rail and all. It needs sights and breech block shims, but has already been gone through and the worn out cocking shoe replaced, as well as some cosmetic first aid and fresh seals.

This rifle has certainly been around, and it has its fair share of dings and little imperfections. But it has charm like an old pickup and it's all the better for it, at least in my opinion. I won't be worried about adding another scuff or two, though that doesn't mean that I'll handle/maintain it any differently that my others.

I knew that I had a set of sights stashed away, so they went right on. Scope can wait until after I spiff up the pivot point, if I mount one at all. I should, of course, because my old eyes need the help. But in the past I did a lot of shooting with open sights, and I immediately liked the sight picture its giving me. When I can see the point of aim (!), the rifle shoots impressively.

I gave up trying to see the printed diamond points and added some 1/4" or larger dots to the flip side with a magic marker. Couldn't see those either. Finally, I made one dot very large, and I could see that one through the blur so I fired a group of RWS Hobby's at it.
I had to add a 6th shot because I goofed one up (top right, ignore that one) but the one honest 5 shot group of the night looks the very best I've fired across my basement in years with open sights:

This one is all about the shooting. 👍

  • Question
N/A  .177 8-9 grain lead pellet of choice

I'm running some JSB Exact 8.44 pellets in my 12 fpe break barrel springer. The pursuit of accuracy and precision is probably my first ammo choice priority followed closely by small game hunting effectiveness. I also do a fair amount of plinking and target shooting on the side so cost/shot is a concern as well. I've been fairly impressed with the JSB 8.44 so far but I'm wondering if there is another choice out there that might be as good or better. What is your pellet of choice?

FX  FX Airguns Dynamic at 1000 Yards Part II + 1000s of Prairie Dogs


This hands down is the best video I’ve ever created! LIVE ON YOUTUBE TODAY! This is part 2 of a 3 part series of all the shenanigans I’ve been on over the last few months. BEST. SUMMER. EVER! Thank you Utah Airguns!

Watch as we test the precision of FX Airguns at 1000 yards with the FX Dynamic .357 and Element Optics Theos. Plus, see the incredible results on thousands of prairie dogs! In this video we cover all the technology and preparation that went into this 1000-yard shot. This shot was not my furthest ever with an airgun nor the longest shot on record, but hands down the most repeatable and consistent setup I have ever seen with an extreme long-range airgun.

We found the perfect ammo combination with the 145 gr. Griffin slugs with crazy high BC and after getting our initial velocity and BC readings from the FX True Ballistics Radar, we let the Element Optics take over. The new Ballistic Solution Trueing feature will blow your mind in how it can take just a few inputs and completely rewrite your solution for first round impacts out to 1000 yards.

At the end of this video, we take this .357 FX Dynamic out to Southern Utah for some high power smack down on nuisance prairie dogs destroying farmland all across the region. The sound of a .357 HP FX Hybrid slug is one of the most satisfying sounds an airgunner will hear. Buckle up because this is one of my most EPIC adventures ever.

Illuminated reticle opinion and suggestion

I'm thinking i want to replace the scope i have on my PCP. Currently have a traditional scope but when varmint hunting in evenings and night, i sometimes lose the reticle in low light. Sometimes i use a predator light and others it's just ambient light

Who uses an illuminated reticle and does it help ?
Suggestions for a varminting scope ? Probably don't need more than 14 or 16 magnification on the high side. (or let me know your thoughts)

Another old guy

Another new old guy,
Hello all, just joined in on the fun !
I've been reading and learning a few things from this forum and thought to join .
I may have some questions sometime and thought you guys have seen it all.
Just retiring and got myself an Impact m3, hope it wasn't a mistake after reading some of the dislike on here. So far it is coming along OK with the many mods.
I used to shoot some benchrest and shotgun sports about 30 years ago, sold most of that stuff and now a PCP to add to a couple of springers.
Now I can shoot on my property along with a few farms and ranches.

AliExpress / Qiufeng $100 Muzzle Mounted Chronograph

About 1 month ago, I purchased a muzzle mounted, chrony on Aliexpress.
Im very impressed so far!

$100 chrony, (might be $110 or $120 now as I ordered about a month ago...)
Made by Qiufeng, and sold on Aliexpress.
1/2" x 20 threads at end, so it attach's to most airguns.
Seems to have a large enough inside diameter to accomidate up to .30 caliber, but I have NOT confirmed.
Its recording very comparable speeds, that Im getting from my FX 2 Pocket chrony.
Its recharageable, and records in both FPS and MPS.
Helps keep things quieter, to a very small degree.

Cons?
With a simple conversion, I must enter the weight of a projectile in GRAMS, not GRAINS....
Thats my only complaint, and it is not a big deal....Just a simple conversion.
FX Royale, Crown, and Impact should be no problem, but attaching it to a Umarez Notos may become an issue.

Comes with a hard case, and cord.
Highly recommended, but I can no longer find a Aliexpress link.

Accessories  FOUND WTT: Left Handed Stock RAW TM 1000

I would like to trade my left handed walnut stock for a right handed one. Stock is in great condition. I don’t see any blems. The UIT rail showssome signs of having been set in different positions. I recently purchased this gun from another AGN member with the plan of making my own stock. Last picture is just for reference. Let me know what you have.

FX  Impact M3 how to get slug fps decent !?

Hello from Australia

Been reading these forums for tips and advice since I went PCP and I got my .22 Impact M3 600mm ~ 2 years, great gun straight out of the box and I set it up to shoot rainbow lorikeet's on the vineyard(declared pest/vermin in this part of Australia that destroys grape vines and kills native birds).

Found the JSB 18gr Barracuda Hunter to work great @ ~960 fps, and after fitting a CF barrel stiffener and harmonic balancer the gun was super accurate and consistent I was never going back to the .22 LR, even though the Tikka .22 LR was so much lighter than the PCP, when I tried it again it just highlighted how accurate and consistent the Impact M3 was and the large capacity magazine really seals the deal.

So now I though I would try shoot something heavier for the rabbits and rats, so I got a STX heavy liner and some slugs, just fitting the liner and trying to shoot a 27gr + slug yielded pretty low fps even after turning the regs up to 140/120, then 160/140, I was barely getting 800fps with the 27.5 nsa .218's and 700 something with the 33gr zans. With the 23gr slugs I could get high 900...

After much reading of forums and watching YT etc it was clear I needed other upgrades !, so I ordered the slug power kit with the tungsten hammer and pin probe and Huma 2nd reg, then after more research worked out that to make the 14g hammer work I needed a lot more pressure so I ran the gun up to 180/165 and didn't really get the speed with the 33+ gr slugs, the gun was getting belted and air usage was extreme, tried the different springs and ball etc, still couldn't get heavy slugs moving and even the speed on the 23gr slugs wasn't much better with all this extra pressure !

Maybe the 14gr hammer is not right for this set-up, so I turned up a brass hammer that weights 8.35g and dropped the 2nd reg down to 140, now I was getting more consistent speeds about the same as the 14g hammer and 160+bar, gave up on the heavy slugs(wow did I go through some ammunition AND air !!) and needed to have the gun useable in the field again so focused on getting a good tune with the 23gr slugs.

I got the 23gr's going 1050 fps + with the regs dropped to 140/120, then sighted and tuned the harmonics etc until I got same speed shot after shot and good accuracy at 1040 fps.

TLDR:

How do I get at least 950fps, preferably 1050fps with a 33gr + slug in this thing !? Is my barrel too short @ 600mm ? Are these internet stories of 1000+fps 40gr .22 slugs fairy tales !?? Do I need even more extreme pressures ?

For me the ballistics of only getting 800fps out of a 33gr slug aren't good enough to bother using this gun for rabbits and rats(need projectile weight to punch through trees etc), its way sub par to a .22 lr with good ammunition doing 1050fps with a 40gr projectile.

PS : this is the late M3, already has power plenum etc std.
