Filtering the Input vs. the Output of the Compressor!

I came across this on hard air magazine: https://hardairmagazine.com/ham-columns/why-not-pre-dry-high-pressure-air-when-filling-your-pcp/. He talks about filtering the input air vs. the output. It seems logical, and less expensive, because you are not dealing with the high-pressure side. Does anyone have any experience that can be shared with this approach? Pros and cons? Anybody doing this now, and how effective is it?

N/A  Fx DRS 600 tricky

Hello 👋
I have a brand new rifle , zero tunning.First time i've tried to set it on 175 m/s on 0,177 calibre.The speed was very inconsistent.I 've changed the plenum to a pellet plenum.Much better but far from good.I understand that the rifle will not work on that speed,and i try to set it to 16 J , maybe on a higher power will be more consistent. The chrony shows me 2-3 m/s deviation.Ok.I put the rifle in the case set on 16J ,next day the first 5-8 shots are 25-28 J .Two things was set by me.The regulator and the hammer spring . Why is the speed increasing with the smallest plenum?

International shipping to EU

I'm having troubles finding a way to have airguns shipped to me from private sellers outside of EU, specifically Africa in this case, but I would run into the same problem from any country outside of EU.

The airgun is legal and license free in both sender and reciever countries and I've already checked with customs etc..

..however, all the regular couriers I've contacted (DHL, UPS, DB Schenker, EMS..) have enforced rules that they refuse to ship anything airgun related for private customers, whether it be complete rifles or just parts.
And since the package is incoming from outside of EU I guess the possibility of the package getting scanned and checked is quite prominent.

So I am now turning here for assistance, does anyone have experience with this and know a courier that allows shipping of airguns internationally between private persons?

Optics  WTS FS MINT Immersive Optics 10x40 Prism Scope $320 @ Southern California

I am the original owner and purchased this brand new. It is mint. I've installed it once on a PCP and never took it to the field. If you followed one of my previous post, I got this, then found out about the DNT Zulus and ended up going with an electronic scope instead. So here it is minty.

I prefer to just meet face to face in So California area for a cash transfer. You can examine it. I can meet between Riverside and Redlands/San Bernardino area in the Inland Empire. Failing that, I am open to shipping.

Thanks.

Huben  Observations Shooting Huben GK1 V3 - Offhand

I’ve been taking more time to shoot my GK1 over the last month or so. My groups aren’t so hot, but are improving some. Today I noticed that after a certain number of shots my pellets were dropping noticeably while shooting from 10 yards. This is without shooting below the recommended 14 12 mpa (I don’t know why I keep confusing 12 mpa with 14 mpa). I would start with the reservoir at 25-26 mpa and after 17 shots the reservoir would finish at 15 mpa. I held over to compensate for the drop and it seems to have corrected the issue. I hadn’t noticed this before and I’m shooting somewhat light pellets At 25.39 grains in .25. I’ll at photos in a little bit once I have a chance to measure some group sizes.

edit: Target #s 3, 4, and 5 were shot 9x with the reservoir “topped off“ around 25-26 mpa. 6, 7, 8 were shot 8x with the second half of the mag ending around 15 mpa. I hadn’t ever noticed a consistent drop in my shots until I shot in an up/down pattern.
IMG_9444.jpeg

The better groups measure around 1.5” CTC Which isn’t great. We’re talking about shooting offhand from 10 yards, BUT I was content seeing 3-5 shots (out of 8-9 shots) grouped tightly on 8 of 11 targets.

The PNotos Project update.

I had a chance to finally print my prototype p90 chassis last night. A set my printer to the fastest settings with the least amount of filament used. I was able to print both pieces in around 10 hours., but I think the time will double when I set my final settings for infill and walls. For now, it was fine and I was able to mount the Notos into the chassis without a hitch. There were a few issues to iron out but man, I am excited to be so close to having a final product.

The most interesting part of this build was how i was going to handle the bullpup trigger mechanism. There were suggestions to use an electric trigger but I couldn't really find anything--- maybe I just didn't look hard enough but honestly, i wanted to keep it simple and use a linkage system. KMy train of thought was to use sometime of rod to link the front trigger to the sear. The design is simple and I was able to get it to work after some thinkering.

I've included a few video links to my youtube page if you would like to take a look at the progress.

16.5g Varmint Knockers performance on Jackrabbit

Pulsar .177
Jackrabbit @ 38 yards
16.5g Varmint Knockers @ 894 fps / 29fpe

I've been testing different slugs on small game and this is the 2nd I've taken with the Knockers. In both cases there was good penetration but not much expansion compared to the JSB Knockouts in 13.43g
Instead of expanding they fragment, breaking apart early even though I am shooting them about 80 fps slower than the JSB Knockouts, and leaving the core to penetrate. If the fragments were bigger and carried further that might be different, but majority of them I find almost immediately on impact, I think I'm gonna stick with the JSB Knockouts. I think I'd rather have the expansion, maybe not as much penetration but definitely more tissue damage imo.

This Jack was facing me and head was low so I was aiming at the top of his head and just as I shot his head went lower and so the slug entered by his shoulder, continued then broke his ribs, tore up some vitals, broke through his last 2 ribs and rested just under the skin.

The performance of this slug and results with the fragmenting were almost identical to a squirrel I shot.

You can see a little mushroom effect on the slug but most fragments broke off, the walls of the hollow point are very thin. Below is an image of the JSB 13.43g Knockout, you can see the difference, also an image of the Varmint Knocker...both shot into 5 gallon pail of water, The flattened out slug to the left of the Varmint knocker was a 10.03g Knockout, the majority of those fragments are actually from the Varmint Knockers although I had them laying next to the other slugs

Well, another Jack for the stew

Stay tuned for some info on JSB 13.43g Knockout performance on small game

N/A  My biggest aggravation in PCP guns ..so far..

Bumping the barrel /shroud and having impact changes....

My first PCP was a simple Marauder. I noticed no issues with POI changes when handled. I bought a Diana storm rider for fun just to shot invasive birds close to the house. I noticed it would shoot a few inches left or right at 50 yards for no apparent reason. I finally realized if I bumped the barrel, it would go wacky. I got the band to attach to the tube and barrel. It was worse since it would bind and lock the barrel in whatever position it was bumped. Now realize. I am NOT taking a hammer to it. just leaning it up against a window frame or laying it on the carpeted floor. I bought a Avenge X next. Same aggravating issue.

Some will say, just shoot it to confirm zero. BUT, the main reason for an air gun is to shoot invasive birds off my purple martin housing at about 30 to 50 yards. I need it dead on at all times. If I shoot my sight in steel (near the martin housing), I will scare off the poop bird. If it is too far off, I might damage my martin housing which is worth 3x the air rifle!!

With my Aveng X; It was suggested to take off the band connecting the barrel/shroud and the tank. This works...BUUUUT eventually the recoil made the shroud slide past the little detent screw that hold it to the barrel!!! The *&%^ shroud is tight and I need to get it off some day with heat and more force. I am currently using a aftermarket band on the shroud and tank. It is ok, but I still am not confident on it holding zero.

I am looking to upgrade from the AVeng X. It is VERY accurate. need to shoot the 30 yard challenge. I think It could do ok. If I spend $1500 buck or so for a higher quality rifle and I end up with the "don't touch the barrel" bs I will throw it in the creek!!

Believe it or not I DID do a search on this topic. I see it appears to be a "thing" and I am not crazy. I would THINK a bullpup design that supports the barrel more would not have this issue...but I don't know if I like the looks of a bullpup. The RAW and guns like it with a skinny barrel hanging out there forever just worries me.

So my search is for a dead nut accurate .25 (.22 2nd choice) at 50 yards that can take a bit of bumping around. I would like it to be right up to or close to being used in accuracy competitions. I have won a few bench rest matches in the past with a powder burner, so I am drawn to the crap like a moth:rolleyes: I could pound the barrel with a hammer and not worry about it shooting 2 inches left/right for no reason....

I am fine with a used gun (leak free) looking at the FX Wildcat 2-3, FX Maverick. The huntsman but the barrel band scares me for bumpies. The FX DRS is intriguing, but I have not seen a lot of reviews yet.

Free for opinions.. Thanks

N/A  Pcp to break barrel

A have a couple pcp air guns avenger .25 and vulcan 3hp .30. Both do well for scoped ranges but im looking at something for ultra close to medium range and open sight. The more power the better. Having taken a fox at 6ft.makes me realize a 5x min scope is not ideal lol. A handy break barrel would fit the bill. Do they have enough power to take fox and similar size critters at close range.

PCP Rifle  SOLD Guns/Equipment from Estate

I don’t know if this is the right place, but I am trying to find the best place to market guns and equipment that Thomas T had prior to his passing. I am just looking for some direction if anyone has ideas or thoughts. Trying to make sure they end up in a good home. Thanks in advance for any assistance on this. I appreciate it.

Of Lasers and Cherry trees …

While trouble shooting accuracy problems we never thought to check this… it could happen to anyone! ;)

A friend wanted to do some tuning and asked if the shooting bench was available. I had finished my morning session and had chores to do so I said to come over.

Chores finished I found my friend upset that things were going poorly. With him being so stressed I suggested a (DECAFFEINATED!) coffee break to talk about what was going wrong.

We both shoot the same PCP, mine is factory stock with some custom woodwork and his is tricked out with every available accessory. Both are tuned to 18 grain pellets and are used primarily for squirrel hunting.

After coffee and a lengthy discussion of what could cause a sudden increase in group size we came to the conclusion that a laser shot in space (away from gravitational fields) could be 100% accurate (ZERO MOA) where as a projectile weapon fired in an atmosphere had no chance of being perfect.

Coming to accept that perfection was an impossible goal, we decided, that for our needs (squirrel hunting at sub 50 yard ranges) that our effective range was determined by how far we (gun, projectile and shooter) could keep all our shots within a one inch circle (e.g. minute-of-a-squirrels-head). Since both our PCP’s were easily capable of that accuracy at the ranges we hunted at, all was good again.

To celebrate, we went out to the range to do some shooting. Since I don’t bring the bench while out hunting, the nearby cherry tree is used as a leaning post. Inexplicably, my PCP started shooting poorly and my friend’s groups tightened up to their normal ½ MOA. Like WTF?

Turned out that I had picked up my friend’s magazine by mistake – close examination showed that it was loaded with 15.89 grain pellets instead of the 18.13 both guns were tuned to. It seems that the whole days’ frustration was caused by an 18 grain lid being accidently being put on a 15 grain can of pellets.

So the moral to the experience is to be realistic with your needs and expectations - don’t let your pursuit perfection spoil your fun… that and be careful you don’t mix up the pellet tin lids!

Cheers!
