Hello there. I’ve got this really nice and unique Diana 460 magnum. Need to sell fast. $425 $335 shipped.
Has a Vortek spring (12 FPE). Nice muzzle brake too. Also has a magnetic lever catch. Trigger is really crisp. The previous buyer had intended to compete against the HW97Ks and TX200s with it. I never got around to shooting it much (as I’ve been too busy with PCPs). Will be shipped in a soft case. Scope not included.

I bought a new Huma reg. to replace the second reg. on my MK3.I removed the factory reg., installed the belleville washers exactly as shown in the Huma directions....put bottle back on and tried to adjust the new reg....could not get any pressure to read on gauge. Degassed gun, removed the new reg. doubled checked everything and re-installed...same results. Tried different washer stack configurations etc. etc....same results. Was exactly following the directions as written....same thing. I took my rifle apart so many times I said enough is enough....put the factory reg. back in...no problems. I sent the Huma reg back to where I bought it from, I just could not get it to work no matter what I tried. Has anyone else had this same kind of problem with a Huma reg...?????

I called FX USA and told them I was having problems with the second reg., they said no problem, give us your mailing address and we will get a new one headed your way......That's pretty Awesome service.....Thanks FX....

New member here, just getting started with air guns. I set out to find something to plink with in the backyard. I enjoy shooting my long range bolt guns, and thought maybe having the a pellet rifle to shoot in the yard would be fun to maintain fundamentals. I am having pretty awful results with the new break barrel rifle that I purchased.

Some info:

Benjamin Vaporizer .22 cal

Crosman Premier hollow point pellets

This rifle did ship with a 3-9x40 AO scope (I question the quality of this scope).

All shots fired with the rifle set down on a waxed canvas shooting bag.

I am very confident with the scope set up/install. I have done this numerous times. Rings are torqued to 15 in/lbs on the tube, I started with 40 in/lbs to the rail.

The accuracy/consistency is extremely bad. Just trying to zero the scope at only 20 yards seems impossible. I have ran a few patches down the barrel, no solvents/chemicals, just trying to remove grease and oil from the barrel. Nothing but flyers all over my target. The inconsistency is inexplainable. Without any change to point of aim, some impacts are 4"-5" inches under, then suddenly a random flyer is 12"-18" low. Again, this is inside of 20 yards.

Windage seems pretty consistent (I'd say under 1/2 mil at the very short 20 yards I am currently shooting from, not great...but it is consistent).

The elevation is a huge problem. I do suspect the scope that shipped with the rifle is just junk and needs to be replaced. I figured I'd mention my dilemma here and see if maybe I am doing something wrong/someone has a similar experience and has a remedy.

I thought purchasing the Benjamin name would have yielded much better results. I really like the feel/weight of the rifle. It is very comfortable to shoot. I hope I can get this thing figured out!

Little jip just could not leave well enugh alone and it cost her.. ( hate to do it out of season, but..)

Almost pulled a burr of the ear shot off. (R9-Irons)

Practice makes perfect . Just need a little more

Just purchased this little baby a few days ago, so far I am literally blown away. Yes its pricey at just over $1700 USD but for such a short barrel I was very very impressed with the accuracy. At ranges from 10-30 yds its basically one hole pellet on pellet, At 50yds even in wind I got a dime size group with an entire mag. The action is butter smooth and I do mean smoooth. The trigger is good, not FX good but good. The gun itself, is very light easy to handle and very aesthetically pleasing to look at. Even my wife, who most days thinks I am insane for spending so much on what she calls toys, says its very cool to look at lol. I put a 0DB silencer on it and its quiet yes but could be better might upgrade to a DFL at some point.
I bought the gun for short to mid range pesting and it is filling that niche very very nicely.
I was leaning toward a Dreamline Compact Tactical and with the upgrades I had in mind it would have literally cost the same if not more than this gun. This gun already had the bells and whistles I was planning to add so I just went for it and I am not at all disappointed. If you can afford one of these you will not regret the money spent...

Be happy to answer any questions or comments...

Today is different for me but hugely entertaining. I took six of my guns with iron sights out for a gentle comparison. What a hoot. First up HW30 .20. I had a target set up 10 meters away for a reason. Just got this baby, no scope yet. I was able to get excellent groups, but found it difficult to see sights. This next rifle is my garbage find. FWB 300Haven’t shot it much. Stop the clock. Should have my mind examined, what a gun. Five quick shots.
Where did these go? And why?
Get them back.
I really like these peep sights. Way easier to focus. This puppy is going to see a little more light. Nothing short of amazing. Talk about set the stage.
‘Next is another new gun a HW50 .20. maybe 10 rounds through it. Once sighted in it held its own. Again I had trouble focusing but doable. This one will be joined at the hip one day, sweet guns.
‘This is my last score. I was looking at 3 rifles, I meant to grab the 350 mag. but I grabbed a D460 .22 by mistake. This gun kicks like a mule, but accurate. I have it in .177 as well. I find the plastic sights a turn-off, but effective. This next rifle is the same gun with a different skin. K98 .22. I found out that were the same 2 days after first shooting it.Man these rifles hit hard. Not used to it. One big difference is the sights. I like the 98 hands down on right.
Comparing these two rifles to me doesn’t make sense. I think the 98 has way more metal cast parts vs. the 460 which a strong seller in their line up.
This next rifle is the FWB 124 Sport.This was the second easiest to aim. No wonder. This gun needs peep sights.
I think with a little time that 300 would never miss. My favorite today. The sport was second but was in the outfield compared to the 300.
I’m going to be on the prowl for these sights for a few other guns.
Impressed on sighting the target with these!
Which sights do you recommend for me to hunt for? Old or new?

Shooting a JW80 MK2 off a front bag, benched (plastic foldable table, ha! ) is fun stuff.

Had a short outing with the Silvertop shooting lubed AA 16gn at 55 yards. I didn’t have a clear picture of the entire 3” gong due to foliage, but come on, that’s a huge target. I did have an unobstructed view of the carriage bolt head securing the gong to the chain, so proceeded to use that as a POA. No real wind to speak of.

5 shots took all the paint off that small bolt.

View of target:


Closer look using a 5 Pence UK coin (18mm diameter) as a reference:







Now to get it dialed in on the 85 yard Zombie resettable target! 1 7/16” top kill zone and 1 9/16”bottom reset paddle. Per the Amazon description top kill zone was supposed to be 1.5” and bottom reset paddle 2”, so this is going to be a fun challenge:



Here she is below with a vintage gloss Burris R/A 8-32x44 MD in a one piece adjustable Sportsmatch mount. I’m thinking of designating this beauty as a long distance bench rig so will likely upgrade the scope soon.



Happy Father’s Day weekend!

There are only two things to do when the heat index is 112 - cool off with a beverage and sort pellets.

Hello everyone!

Currently im looking at making the switch to air riles. Ive narrowed it down to these two rifles. Ive spent about 4 hour or more of research of the pro's and con's of both. Before I make my decision I would like to hear opinions too. I will be bench-rest shooting in 22 cal.

Advice for the new/newer PCPers . . .
When I got started in December '22 I spent several hundred dollars spent on pellets that are hardly worth shooting now, IMO. If I had it to do over again, I would follow the advice of the experienced shooters on the forum and stick to the brands and weights (caliber specific) of pellets that have proven to be the most accurate in most guns, instead of trying to re-invent the wheel and load up on every tom, dick and harry brand and weight, thinking I am going to eventually discover the holy grail! Save your money for more important things.

Any other opinions?

I've got a Benjamin Akela with a Turkish walnut stock. I'd like to modify the stock a bit so that it fits me better, but I'd also like to remove the existing finish first? What methods are people using that work best?

(Photo is what the rifle looks like now.)

What does HW mean, as in HW 30...

Anybody found rds that seem to fit this gun.

NSA slugs .178 12.5 gr
NSA slugs .178 15 gr
JSB KO slugs .177 4.52mm 13.43 gr
FX pellets .177 4.52mm 13.4 gr

All have been opened but are mostly full. No longer have a .177

$60 shipped for the lot. OR I will trade for three 500 ct tins of JSB or FX 18.1 gr 5.52

PP FF or USPS MO

I am valuing trade value at $800 dollars.

Open to anything airgun, regular scope, an AGM Neith , a compact .22 air rifle setup, accutac FC4 bipod plus cash. Just offer up

Cash sale value is $700 Shipped


I am switching over to a different optic for a different purpose, not because this optic is inferior in any way. This has been used a total of 2 times in the field with no marks, no signs, no wear marks from field use. My stuff is always cared for.

I've heard about the Weihrauch HW50S and Gamo Urban, but I'm not sure if these are the only options. I'd want something somewhat quiet but effective. Also, what's the best type of air rifle for hunting (i.e. PCP or break barrel)? Sorry, I'm completely new to this type of stuff.

Super cool technology giving you real time results for PRS & BR!

This is by far the stiffest rail for the Panthera on the market.

Check out our webpage for the full rundown!

First things, this is specifically designed for PRS/NRL style shooting. This isn't a rail that will cover everything. ie bottles and whatnot and everyone's niche desires. This is designed to be the most rigid PRS competition oriented rail.

Bridges will be available soon separately. Furthermore, a barricade stop replacement with integrated ARCA will be coming out soon for it as well. This is a good option for those shooting off tripods.

For AGN members, get an extra 5% off the pre order price with promo code AGN at checkout. This will only be active during pre-order time between now and the 24th of June.

I've been shooting pre-charged (old huh) since the 'late 80's but simply dont shoot much these day's and no one to leave then to so might as well sell most. Right?
So randomly said "I'll just keep 2" well plus the sentimental ones. Well and .............. . Maybe now that they are "pcp's" they are addictive? Still plan on listing a dozen or so "local" as shipping is nut's. Really. No really.

Just reading someone post in pistols to try to help I glanced at Dennis's page for his ".410 Camp pistol" and he had the day before listed .45's & .58 available. While looking mentioned it to the wife and (knowing I was "selling") she said "Oh you NEED one of those"! We all know the Wife is always right. She did enjoy the old .458 LA Outlaw rifle we had.

Such a pleasure to deal with the Quackenbush family. And today my new .45 arrived. Yesterday some NSA .452 ammo arrived. What a fun day! Now I am still selling most but no set number. Just keeping the all out fun rigs' Yah that will do it. Anyone know where the find a Shark pump action? Oh my.
Only fired 4 shots, no scope just pointing 3" group at 25 yards off hand. FUN! Thinking a cheap crosman stock, short range so any scope and hey honest I can quit anytime I want.

For those of you guys that like to complain about the USPS, UPS and FedEX, here's a comical tracking history for you. I bought a pickleball paddle from a guy in PA almost two weeks ago. Seller sent the package out on June 4th by 2 day Priority Mail and it was supposed to be delivered by June 6th or 7th. Look at that tracking history so far:


Yup, that's right...they got it out to the San Jose distribution center 5 miles from my house, then sent it back to PA. Then resent it all the way back out to SJ...only to return it back to PA AGAIN today! Latest status is that it just left the PA distribution center and is presumably on its way back to SJ again for the THIRD time!

Friggin' unbelievable - good thing it's a $200 paddle and not a $2000 rifle. If this thing shows up at all, it'll probably be in 4 pieces. This is so ludicrous that I can't do anything but laugh out loud. SMH...
