Hello all,

I was discussing this in another thread but it seems like my issue must be slightly different. I have a Panthera .22 Compact and the first shot is always 40-80fps slow after sitting for an hour or more. The regulator the gun came with had 5-8 bar reg creep which made the issue worse. Even after 600+ pellets it wouldn't settle in so I swapped in the reg from my Maverick which I know is good. The issue still persists after 3-4 different attempts at fixing the regulator. I have tried at 110 bar and 120 bar reg settings. Here are my shot strings:

840
880
870

844
878
890

809
879

For a little extra background, Utah Airguns said they tuned it for me and when I shot my first few shots I just thought they did a crappy tune. The more pellets I put through it in a sitting the better it shoots. After 3-4 mags it's pretty tight FPS but when it sits it goes to poop again. Could it be a faulty valve? Utah Airguns and FX support both think it's the regulator but I've already swapped that out.

I'd like to avoid sending it in if I can.

I must apologize to everyone for printing some bad info. I have a ghost 177 hp and have been telling everyone that the hammer wheel does nothing if the gun was set for less than 20 fpe and this is incorrect. I was keeping pressure low at 85 bar and there it would do nothing with the light hammer spring today i pushed the pressure to 135 bar and am getting a good range of fps and shooting 13 jsb to 810 hammer wheel 4. It’s also pushing 16 gr slugs to 824 for 22 fpe, 13 gr slugs to 912 also for 24 fpe. And I’m assuming if you then go to the heavy spring you could get to the 30’s but have not tried yet. Again my apologies for providing bad info

I got this brand new from PARD and only used it for a couple hours to film the review video. It has been in the box since then. Brand new condition. Comes with everything. This scope, with the Laser Range Finder, sells for $1099. It also has a ballistic calculator, so it can tell you where your impact point will be once you enter a few simple parameters. The PARD is the cream of the crop when it comes to NV scopes. It's also awesome as a daytime scope.

Howdy all
My new to me Wolverine HP .22 pushing it’s favorite weight pellet 25.39 with it’s 0dB moderator seem to be a bit noisier than the FX Crown (that was traded for the Wolverine) pushing it’s favorite weight 18.1 pellet with an Air-fective Carbon moderator (they are in UK). So is there something better than the 0dB to quiet the Beasty HP? Don’t get me wrong the 0dB is doing a great job but the Wolverine seems to be a bit of a beast compared to the FX. I shoot at home a lot and prefer to be as quiet as possible.

Thanks

Howdy all

I’ve encountered an issue I wasn’t expecting trying to mount my Hawke scope to my HW97. The center of the scope where the turrets are hits the top of the mount - leaving a little space under the scope tube on both ends - in other words, I can rock it back and forth on the center. Which means if I tighten the scope rings, I’m guessing it will bend the scope tube.

Is there a way to shim the tubes safely? I was really wanting to use this mount and scope combo (I was also looking forward to getting sighted in this weekend)

Switching sights and shooting in. Always a pleasure.

Specifications

I decided to go ahead and buy a Rainson Edge X from Ares Tactical. I purchased the 'Dr. Russ Hunting Special', in synthetic. I haven't had a chance to shoot it much beyond some chrono testing, so this is kind of between an unboxing and a real review.

What came in the box:

• The gun, set up for .25 caliber.
• The .22 barrel and probe.
• 3 magazines for both .22 and .25.
• 1 single shot tray in .25. I'll be asking what it costs to get the .22 single shot tray.
• A barrel band, already attached to the gun.
• A shroud, already attached to the barrel.
• A moderator.
• A female Foster fitting that will fit on the gun's Foster port. Originally people complained about the gun using a bastardized Foster fitting, but the gun came with a standard Foster fitting.
• Some spare o-rings for ? The Foster fitting, I think.
• A huge spanner for God knows what. Removing the regulator, perhaps.
• A small wrench for removing the pellet probe when changing the barrel.
• A users' manual, spelled 'User Manuel'. Oops.

First Impressions out of the box:

• I chose the synthetic, but Ares will sell you the wood Edge for the same price. For plastic, it's pretty solid.
• Man, this thing is heavy! I thought my wood Avenger was heavy, but this thing has some serious heft to it. Eat your Wheaties if you want to hunt with it.
• There are two small picatinny rails on the receiver, and one was crooked. I would have been disappointed if the screw holes were crooked, but it was just because there was some room in the holes in the rail. Easy to straighten.
• The gun came with the reg set to 150 bar, and there was about 180 bar of air in the tank.
• The magazines are okay. They look similar to plain old Marauder/Avenger magazines, and are loaded in the same way.
• The label on the side says, ".25 Caliber (6.35mm) something something." I guess that's going to be wrong when I change the barrel.
• The manual is okay, not great. English was definitely not their first language. There are exploded diagrams, but they just point to part numbers, not measurements for items like o-rings.

Since I don't have any .25 handy, I went to change the barrel from .25 to .22. Taking the barrel out was pretty easy - there are descriptions on Youtube. However, they're a little incomplete. The shroud is held on by very small grub screws, and a fitting on top. There are no marks or notches to show where the shroud goes, so be mentally prepared to guess, or mark where the shroud goes. You don't need to put the shroud on; AFAICT it is just there for show. Of course at one point I got the barrels mixed up, and there aren't markings on the barrel to differentiate the two.

I then took it out to get some quick chrono tests. My experience with it was:

• This thing is loud! Your neighbors will think you're shooting .22 LR in the backyard. When I get done with the chrono (cheap Chinese attached to the barrel) I'll put the moderator on it.
• The gun feels okay. The grip is rubber and is a little small. My hand is pretty average size, and it just barely fits.
• I didn't get a chance to zero the scope in, because the missus had Other Plans for me. With the scope I have on it right now, I have to crawl up on the stock to get in the eye box.
• The trigger seems to be pretty nice. Mine came light from the factory. It is a two-stage trigger, and it felt like it slipped into a notch when you take up all of the first-stage slack. Breathe on it hard after that and it fires. Since I want to use it to target shoot, I don't have a problem with it being light.
• Cocking is okay. It doesn't grate, and it's not as smooth as my FX. It has a long throw.
• It has a Power Adjuster, with five selections from low to high. I swear I read somewhere that the lowest setting is Off, so I only tried four selections. Shooting JSB 18.13, the numbers out of the box were (fps):

689
787
902
922

I suspect that the difference between 787 and 902 are where the gun is wasting air. I will be playing with the regulator and hammer spring tomorrow.

• It uses a lot of air. I haven't adjusted the regulator and hammer spring, but right now it will give me 50 or so shots before it falls off the reg. This from a 500cc bottle. Again, I think that is because it is tuned pretty hot.
• The fill port is at the bottom of the stock. If you use one of those 5" gold filters at the end of your whip, you will then be getting pliers or forceps to unhook the Foster fitting because your fingers will not fit in the recess where the port is located.
  I ordered the external regulator adjustment knob, but when that gun is full of air you need to be The Incredible Hulk to adjust that regulator. I suspect that when I let the air out of the gun it will be much easier to adjust.
• I think that 500cc aluminum tank is where a lot of the weight is. I might try to get the carbon tank for it.

Tomorrow I'm going to adjust the regulator and hammer spring to shoot around 850 or thereabouts, and see how accurate it is.

First the target with the orange sticker. My wife shoots very little. A .22 target pistol, a centerfire and a rim fire AR a tiny little bit. Tonight after 2 years I got her to try the 54. So there are here first 2 shots at 0 yards. All in the ten ring just a hit over a quarter inch. She like it, I think she is hooked. Then she was shooting tiny airgun silhouettes. Those chickens at 50 yards are tiny. Some one had left a target hang at 100 yards. Good condition, I had a flag at 25 yd's, the tail never even tickled. Shot the left group first, under 2 inches, good. Then I shot the rt group, under an inch and a half, even better. The fat hole was shots 2, 3, &4, I was amazed. Got home right before thunder, lightening, and a downpour by 2 minutes. No reloading, no clean.....I love these things.

I'm thinking about how I'm going to set up a .30 for EFT. Normally I would set a 50 yard zero and live with holding or clicking under for the 20 to 45 yard targets.

However, looking at it in Strelok, I'm looking at a 5 mrad drop. I got to thinking, why not zero at 100 yards, then I only have to click one direction. The problem is that I only have 4 mils over the center on my reticle, so I would be required to click rather than hold under. The other problem is that I wouldn't be able to use a zero stop, but since I would never have to click a full revolution this wouldn't be a big deal.

I mean, I would still actually zero the gun at 50 yards because that's more precise, I would just be setting the scope at 4.2 clicks down rather than zero clicks.

Or I could zero at 20 yards and only click up. That actually sounds better, would be less confusing for me.

This all sounds weird to me because I'm used to the trajectory curve you get with regular field target. But since the trajectory curve for EFT isn't a curve (it's a ramp), I'm trying to break out of my old ways of thinking.

Anyway, what are your zero strategies for EFT?

PS: EFT. EFT. EFT. Not FT, not HFT, not hunting, not benchrest. EFT. I'm sure I would be very interested to know your set up for Hunter class field target, I just don't want to see it in this particular thread. Not trying to be a jerk, I'm just begging you to please keep any replies on topic for EFT.

I purchased this Air Venturi v10 in August 2021 from pyramyd (made in spain), has maybe 600 rounds through it. It Is stock, no mods. Includes 3 partial tins of pellets shown. It really likes the r10 ones. It shoots great I just got my huben gk1 and don't see myself shooting this much anymore

This is priced at $175 TYD for CONUS, for all the stuff shown in the pics - pellets, case, and pistol. I've got the manual somewhere too and will also include that.

Prefer paypal F&F but will accept other digital transactions like venmo.

Dear friends of AGN.
After selling some old rifles i have today a budget of $1300 to $1400 to buy a good pcp with scope shipped.

Maybe is not a huge budget but was hard to me achieve it.

I’m totally open to offers like my post says only please I’m looking for a good deal Im not considered offers of rifles under my budget .

Thanks to all.

DonnyFL Fatboy 2.0 with muzzle brake. I bought this in a lot and have never mounted it on a rifle, doesn't appear to have been used.

$175 shipped to lower 48, Paypal F&F preferred or add 3%. Not interested in trades.

Can ya get 20 t0 30 hours out one of them just pump air guns?something like this?

Howdy all

I did some searching but didn't find what I was looking for. My Brand new HW97K just arrived along with a BKL High 4" long single piece mount (6 rail screws) and a Hawke scope. The HW didn't come with a scope stop pin, and neither did the BKL mount - in looking at the BKL website, the FAQ question as to whether they use scope stop pins was blank. I"m assuming with the six rail screws, the assumption is one isn't needed?

Also - wanted to verify - BKL recommend 15-17 inch/lbs for the scope rings and 35 inch/lbs for the rail. Assuming this is a good place to start after using alcohol on the rail and scope mounts?

thanks!

What is your favorite scope thats under 20oz? What are the specs?

I like the vortex 3-15 lht I'm currently using but it has its drawbacks. I'm curious what else people are using.

Hello folks,

Im just somehow getting bored with the general "subMOA" accuracy rule.
Started to brainstorm about the "sub0.5MOA" accuracy class. Lets clarify, it doesnt mean some one group per year on a lucky day but consistent, moreless "all the time" sub 0.5 MOA grouping. I set my goal to 100m with no wind for this.
For the first is there some so hell accurate air rifle on the market? Mostly talking about FAC rifles but not super high energy, maybe up to 40-60J (to make it easier to hold for the 0.5 MOA accuracy) but sub12 could be also.
Im sceptic that its so easy just to order a rifle and thats all. Im ready to experiment, modify, do custom rifle parts, etc. Basically any tuning.
But if you would be an engineer, and you have been told "hey make me a sub 0.5MOA air rifle" what would be your starting point. What rifle you would get to start from as a baseline? (no, please just dont write FX impact)
I have a Prophet 2 in .25 and its capable for 0.7 MOA groups pretty easily, without any custom special modifications. Maybe it would be a great rifle to start with with a .22 barrel. I believe the .22 is similarly accurate as the .25.
What would you start with and what is your opinion in general? Please not that this topic is meant to be "scientific" and sophisticated. So try to aim your comments this way.
Thank you.

Always kinda exciting to go through the steps for a new rig. I installed a ScopeWerks wheel last night, now comes marking up the wheel and shooting for dope.
