FX  FX Dynamic cant shoot proper groups (.25 700)

Hi,

Before 2 months i had a problem with my dynamic it was shooting kind a 3 shot group 2-3 MOA group on 100m but some shots was flying to right side by even 70cm. Nothing was loose or something i was not able to find the root of issue (speed consistency was good).
Now i fitted to the rifle a Huma regulator which works perfectly and a Huma heavy hammer weight. The heavier one ... 14.x gram.
Yesterday i assembled it and tried with 41 grain ZAN slugs all settings between 140 and 155 bar and 275 and 310 m/s.
Had a settings where i had 304.6 m/s 6 times in a row so consistency can be considered to good i think.
On 90 meters i was shooting to a wall and always happened that sometimes i had two shots extremly close almost one hole and another shot went totally elsewhere. I dont even consider the overall acuracy to be a "group" but the rifles "group" was around 30-40 cm on 90m. In nutshell terrible.
Do you had someone similar issue? Or maybe some idea what could cause it?
Note: The silencer is absolutly OK no movement inside or close pass to walls.

Brocock/BRK  New Ghost Day

👻 Just received my Ghost .30 from the classifieds. Got to shoot it in the backyard at 35yds while sighting the Helix scope in. All the positive hype is real! Reg is at 150b and the wheel was at 18. The STO Falx High Flow really works well on this gun. I am surprised how effective it is at this higher power setting! Totally backyard friendly. JSB 44.75 Diabolos resulted in 956fps and 90 ft/lb. I also played with the minimum wheel setting and got 734fps with a whisper when shooting. Currently set at 9 on the wheel with 890fps. The target pic is of the first eight shots I fired with this rifle and scope and some bent pellets so not too bad for my amateur butt and a further testament to how solid of a platform this BRK is!

Cleaning Tips: What is your process for ideal accuracy?

Cleaning Tips

If you are new to air rifles, it's important to note that they don't have residues caused by burning powder like rifles do. That means the barrels don't foul up or require cleaning nearly as often as regular rifles. It is not necessary to clean your airgun barrel every time they are put away after use, unless they are used in the rain or in very humid environments.

How often you should clean your air rifle barrel depends on the type of gun, how often you use it, and the type of pellets or slug that you use.
Unless your dealer cleans the barrel before shipping, you should clean your new barrel before shooting the first time. This is due to the coating that is applied at the factory that protects it in freight, but detracts from accuracy once in use.

After use, a slug setup could benefit from cleaning at least every tin and a pellet setup could benefit from cleaning every tin or tin and a half.
If you want to run something through the barrel, use a good quality bore-cleaning rope like the Patchworm Field Kit and some cleaning solution like Ballistol.
Clean and lubricate the external metal parts to avoid corrosion.

Most airgun dealers recommend that a well-used air rifle be serviced once a year, while a less-used air rifle may only need servicing once every two years. With significantly more parts than a standard rifle, airgun rifles have a lot of o-rings and seals that will eventually fail and require replacement.

When someone purchases a rifle from NorthEast Airguns, we check it for proper operation and that the magazine feeds properly. There are two additional tests that are performed before a gun leaves our store. We perform a 24 hour leak test and verify velocity with a chronograph. Included with the chronograph test results is a tech signed 10 shot string with all the velocities for each shot, the type, and the weight of ammo used for testing. This will assist the purchaser in finding the type of ammo with the best accuracy for the barrel they are shooting with.


We love hearing from you.
What rifle do you own and what is your process for ideal accuracy?

Is my half done S&W 78g an abomination, or the NES light gun that the world needs?

Hello you fellow top tier airheads, ya danged ol functioning ballistaholics, as it were. Im Boone Jug from the holler, yes that holler. Story time- I mauled my 78g with my haggard fangs alone in my lil ol grodge late at night with TEMU tools, no adult supervision, all while pounding cases of jolt cola and blaring Ace Of Base. Now that yall know I aint whilstin dixie, ill get right to it. My latest build has folks divided, some say its heresy, some say I ruined me a classic pistola three weeks dungeon! While the other camp thinks she a nintendo light gun lookin exotic debutant, that mollywops steel critters in unlimited standing pistol silhouette and field target. Her name is Dizzy, from Starship Troopers if you know, you know. I sniped her off Ebay for 50ish American doll hairs. Her soft parts were plum blowed out the frame, no grips or piercing cap, she was flicted by the orange gremlins what eats metal, science says it aint that but MAMA says theys wicky voodoo. Back when MAC1 had the interwebs store before the big bike wreck laid ol tim down, I ordered a whole mess of valves and lil bits n bobbits. I cured her of her innard ailments and wuz smittened by her sturdy build and she got a telemetry on that trigger musta come straight oughta NASA, put me a good hone and shine on them bang switch units. Thats when my superpower flipped on, i gots the ADHD, OCD and the look at me. The Marine Corps dun shuffled my deck a lil bit more but we still got her pined full throttle missin on 3 cylinders and rich on the other five, can i get an amen? I digress, this aint about me. Its about my girl Dizzy. I milled out the rear sight lug and guides, pinned me a loose optics plate to the receiver for a spare zero elite. Fanged a pic rails ass off to mount a light, pinned with brass rivets I wopped up just right with tender mallet strokes while I held her hand, shes so brave. Hit the seam with e6000 and again with JB. I got choked walther barrel stock I gantry fanged it to stock specs just left 2mm more rifling in the chamber for bentz style engagement, then decided to yeet an extra 1mm into the port, got the bolt reshaped and shiny. Turned down a new transfer port to match, punched the valve port 1mm made it shine. Popped the valve out and set to rotary burr fangin material out, I reckon i got .7-.9 worth of her guts trimmed out tapering in the direction of her gassy colon as it were. I then set to using clay polishing compounds and units i made called alien fingers to mush my shine gunk around when i port and polish automotive unitry. I got a mess of springs I tuned with yesternight had to negotiate with my terrorist chrony thinks hes wore out, but aint allowed to die right now. I want to run c02 with the hammer spring tension back all the way off diabolo 14.3g at 500fps and tension maxed on HPA regulated at 1000psi 16g diabolo at 600+fps and im going to test hybrid slugs maybe even cut another barrel 14-16 inches. I do epoxy stuff so i got after the handles with that mess too, aint done by a long shot on them, epoxy layering with airbrush to build depth and then ill build out my mold and pour a healthy margin so I can make me a palm swell shaped like JLO, lil bity shelf with imbedded hardware to bolt a 360 fatboi shelf. Cerakote is burnt bronze and stoplight red. Im a professional mixed media artist too, some of my old portfolio is here https://www.instagram.com/boone.jug.art/ I cant trust Eddie, Eddie is the name of my chrony pray for him. But I think I have a couple viable spring combos to hit my velocity and have the broad range on the same spring set with multi fuel as I had conjured up in my lizard brain. I need to dump my efilm from my eCamera for all the build pics, but here is one yall can pass judgement on. I got a wall plum full of wackadoo builds like this one hangin around watchin me type a book about Dizzy the jealousy is palpable. I aint been real keen on the ol interwebs but folks is always sayin off the wall stuff like "You oughta start a youtubes" or "get you a facebook" or "What do you mean you aint got no cell phone Boone Jug?!?!?! What if somethin happens!?!?!" My kids convinced me theres a whole mess of connectivity I've been missin just might be worth havin with some of yall that aint from the holler. Cheers to anyone who read that whole book and could make any sense of my Shakespearian prose. Ill get my data sorted for my ballistaholics and post spring combo specs when i get em dialed. I have 7 other off the wall builds if this one peaks yalls interest ill write a book about them ladies as well. Have a glory filled, meritorious day. (YATYAS)

HW/Weihrauch  Matching caliber to rifle, Weihrauch style...

Hi all

Since my first exposure to the HW30, HW50 and HW95 trio, I've had an almost subliminal assumption that the most effective pairings of rifle & caliber would be: HW30/.177, HW55/.20 and HW95/.22 (not that I've adhered to that myself - 😁)

But without at least having the use of all 9 combinations, all I really have is an educated guess, right?

So let's see who agrees with my premise, or who can change my mind.... 👍

PCP Rifle  NLA Semi Custom Gamo Coyote 22 Cal 50+ Shots Wicked Accurate Turn Key Package

WTS or WTT located in the East Bay Area Cali

I like to tinker more than shoot sometimes so here is a finished rifle ready to go. Great first pcp or paper puncher or even pest control. Would like to sell but will entertain trades, seems like I always need one more good scope lol.

Modifications are as follows:
-Shorter Gamo Urban barrel installed for a more compact package. Still free floating although looks like the mod is touching, its not!
-Barrel port has been hand aligned to match the transfer port for better air flow. Most of these are partially blocked from the factory.
-Transfer port has been opened up to port match with the valve output and barrel inlet port for max airflow.
-Long Barrel Band Screw mod has been relocated to the trigger with a little RTV to secure the adjustment. Trigger is pretty good and still safe for hunting etc.
-Air Venturi Aluminum Picatinny Rail installed on the forend of the stock for bipod mounting or a light etc. (Bipod not included)
-Gets an easy 50-55 shots under the wonderful power curve; ~3050psi-1500psi. Extreme spread of ~15psi which is amazing for a non-reg pcp.
-Shoots JSB Hades 15.89g pellets at ~795fps average into little bitty holes. This setup has taken lots and lots and lots of pests, and is very easy to hand pump if you dont want to spend the money on a compressor.

Rifle, Factory Mag, Factory Fill Probe $365 Shipped
SWFA SS 10x42mm Rear Adjustable Paralax (down to 10yds!) UTG Mount, SWFA Rings, and BC Scope Caps all zeroed and ready to roll $215 with rifle package only

Other  Your recommendations for best "box store" springers....

Just wondering if there are any models that stand out to the "cognisenti" here. I mean, there have to be a FEW, right? Stuff that people were pleasantly surprised by, especially over time.

I started wondering after I bought a 2nd hand Ruger Blackhawk Elite in .177. I didn't pay a lot because I didn't expect to get a lot. In fact, I figured it might make a good guinea pig for tuning.

It has a modern-style black thumbhole stock with lots of "cool" edges molded into it, turned me right off. I like old, wood & steel. And form that follows function.
But it is comfortable to use (!) and to my surprise, cocks, cycles and shoots very well (!). On top of that, it has a good trigger (!).
Everything fits neatly together, blueing is fine, etc. and there is no need for tuning. Well, well... 😁

So next I bought a Stoeger X20S with the same thought, and that has turned out to be a very good shooting rifle also. Two for two as it were....

So I'm wondering if it's time to show a little respect to the box store stuff....

Slug accuracy thoughts

My friend Steve and I are slug testing an Epic 2 in 25 cal. Comparing both the LW poly and CZ barrels. We finally bit the bullet literally and started shooting at a firearm range. Problem is wind. Yeah I know, “it’s part of the game”. Problem is this facility has very high berms and what little wind is magnified and swirling by the targets. We’re attempting accuracy testing for slug diameter and weight. We get consistent 1/2 MOA at 50 yards with the best projectiles. And a widening with others. At 100. If wind is calm, 1 MOA at 100 yards, but with wind upwards of 3” groups. I confirmed it with my taipan vet with a proven slug and drilled a 7/8” group of 5 at 100, when calm, but opened up to 2 1/2” with 5 mph winds swirling. Question is, do we just go with the 50 yard groups?

Brocock/BRK  Some Ghostly Groups…👻

Please keep in mind that I’ve only had it two days… Sent these groups after a long, hard workday. As a bonus 🙄 when I went out to change the 40 yard target. I noticed a mess behind my barn which I had to clean up… A racoon had gotten into one of my cans…👿💥 The Atomic with Zulus is primed and ready for tonight and the ding donger will alert me. Back to the Ghost 👻, all groups covered by a dime, excepting the one flyer at 40 yards with the Jumbo Monsters, I pulled that shot…🤓 The Ghost is truly an impressive PCP, am looking forward to getting better acquainted with it…

Whats the one thing on your favorite gun you wish was on all guns.....

For me it's my Raw and the 3 piece adjustable pellet probe. Machined to fit perfectly. No breech orings to mess with. They always blow out or get destroyed at the wrong time and sometimes a bitch to replace if you have a spare. Let's here yours.

New guy question

I am new to air guns so if you don’t count the old crossman guns I used 35 years ago as a kid. I have a sparrow problem on our farm that I would like to get a new gun to help with.

After reading reviews, I bought a Gamo Whisper Magnum 10x rifle. Unfortunately the rifle is terrible and has major problems with feeding ammo and the magazine advances incorrectly every time it is fired.

I am trying to find an accurate gun that is reliable and will last a long time. I don’t need top of the line or the latest and greatest. Looking for suggestions from those of you here with experience and knowledge that far exceeds mine. Thanks in advance.
