Hello all...

After many hours of reading finally registered as a member.
Thanks for all the information!
I am Rick, 62 years old and for now a hobby shooter.
Have two pcp guns, Artemis 700 (which is for sale) a Hatsan Jet 1 and just bought a used Condor.

Greetings from The Netherlands

how I got my maverick scary quiet by accident

always in pursuit of silence so I can play in my yard like a ninja. anyways I literally have like 6-7 different suppressors and have tried them all on many different models and brands etc and I have finally achieve what I believe to be the pinnacle of silence. 25 more quiet than any 177 or 22 I've own even, on par with my 22 pp750 pushing 15fpe, maverick is 160/112 hammer 0, 26g @ 715fps about 30fpe or so.

so here's the back story and its kind of funny. I recently purchased my maverick from thepelletshop.com. had the bright idea of putting a 480cc bottle for poop and giggles, so I needed a skinny moderator. it was either hugget sniper or DFL koi and went with the koi because it was a little longer and cheaper. so pretty straightforward you would think

but the reason it is scary quiet is get this... the koi is 177/22 caliber! no issues with clipping. and even though DFL has told me directly that larger volume is what suppresses more I've found this is not always the case. because my huma mod40 works better than my mod50 on my AEA SF .30. so with this tid bit of info I took a bit of a gamble got the koi in a smaller caliber,. they even called me to confirm that's what I wanted. works like a charm!

Air Arms  TX200 Lube Question

I have an almost new TX200HC.
I ordered and received(in 5 days) a TinBum Short Stoke tune kit from TinBum in England.
I'm getting ready to install it and I'm going to use Krytox instead of TinBum's moly lube that came with the kit.
I have cleaned all of the old lube out of the gun completely, but have a question:

Do I lube the outside of the compression tube where it slides back and forth in the receiver when cocking? There was a very thin film of something on it when I removed it and in the receiver, but I thought that may have just been the moly from the spring and piston that dispersed though firing the gun.

I have it all so clean now, that I'm being extremely careful about where and how much I lube with the Krytox.
I've looked at dozen's of threads both here and on the other forums regarding tuning a TX200, but nothing has ever been mentioned about lubing the outside of the compression tube where it slides in the receiver when cocking the gun.
I guess that I could call/email TimBum, but wanted ya'lls opinion please.
Thanks in advance.
Norris

Getting started

Hello,
I am wanting to get started in our local benchrest outdoor 50yd matches. I have an RTI prophet 1 in 22 with the LR barrel, Vulcan 3 700mm 22 setup up for slugs at 80FPE for hunting. A Hatsan carnivore in 30cal at 100fpe for hunting and a tx200 in 177 for FT. Also, a Vulcan 3. 500mm in 177 for open class.
I thought about trying the RTI for it and using my rock jr front rest and a rear bag for it.

Now,
I would like a dedicated gun for benchrest. I can't afford a Thomas but I would like a decent gun and scope and a flag setup with maybe something different for rest setup. If had to put a limit it would be 2,000 for rifle/scope setup and unsure about flags and rest. I do know no high dollar rests.

Also, I have never played this game before.

Thanks
Jon

Theoben  Shot the "270" Today...First Year Theoben....

I acquired this Sirocco Delux .22 SN270 from David Slade on consignment while picking up or dropping off some other guns to be serviced about two years ago...he had just serviced it...I had him set the power at 12fpe and besides one pellet when I got it home has been in storage since then. Finally got around to mounting a Vortec 4x12 scope, ran 7 Crosman domes across the crony, 12fpe right on the money...took a few shots to sight it in at 25yds...shooting off my knee as my custom is...printed this group...not bad for a 41 year old just serviced air rifle...if I say so

Pellet Slug Conversion; .30 Pellet to .22

Hello,

Is anyone also doing pellet to slug conversions taking larger caliber pellets, cutting off the skirts, and then using a 3d printed jig for sanding out a spitzer shaped round? I’ve made some rolling jigs and have found this is really an economical way to test slugs without dealing with the metallurgy differences of slugs to pellets. Barrel wear around rifling reduction when shooting slugs is measurably reduced. Using a bore scope I am seeing significant land and grove wear reduction across 10,000 rounds.

So Many Different Rifles

I posted this comment over a week ago and have not received any comments.

"We are all prisoners of our experiences. My first air rifle was a springer Winchester/Daisy model 1000. I inherited it from a dear friend who passed away from cancer this spring. I put a scope on it and it is working well. I then purchased a Ruger Blackhawk/Umarex springer. The scope didn't work so I put a Hawke 2 X 7 scope on it and it is coming along."

How is an air gun newby supposed to understand the myriad of makes and models, especially when most of the posts give a model number but not a manufacturer. Or is confusion the intent?

Taipan  Making the veteran standard even better!!

For those of you who have been die hard vet owners, I’m with you!
This is my 2nd vet, after I stupidly sold the first before giving it a chance.
My only gripe with the vet was in the bullpup configuration with the factory wood stock, I was horrible at shots past 50yds. Not the rifles fault. Just my comfort.
I decided to bite the bullet and ordered a tactical stock for it.
The FIRST time I shot it afterwards, it was like buying a completely different gun. Comfort level is there, and I’m comfortable now past 50yds. With a pic rail up front to help with bench work, it’s even more sturdy.
icing to top the cake (that I haven’t seen ANYWHERE mentioned till now) is that it takes AR style flat top grips!!!
I HATED the wood grip that came with it, so after I found this out, I was ecstatic to say the least.
Very happy with my purchase!

JTS  JTS Airacuda Max

Hello everybody. I just wanted to write about my newest addition. I received my JTS Airacuda yesterday from Airgun Depot. It arrived empty of air so I was a little skeptical that it would hold air, due to the recent posts. Well after cleaning the barrel which was very very dirty, I mounted my Arken SH 4-25 on it. Really big scope for the rifle, but it was just laying around so I put it on. Well aired it up, and popped the first shot. It was low and to the left, at 25 yds. Dialed int the corrections and bingo dead center. Following shots were dead on. I was shooting FX 25.39’s at 907 fps. Two mags shot with those. Next I tried some FX 34gr pellets. They were low as expected and speeds of 850 down to 830 before falling off the reg. I was very pleased ate the results and the way the rifle shot. No clipping with the Donnyfl Sumo either.
Ok now the not so good news.
After about 5 mags, the rifle started leaking air from the foster fill connection. I tried several blasts of air trying to reseat the valve. No good. I tried inserting something to reseat the valve. No good. So I was wondering what to do. Send it back, or try to fix. Well I did the latter. And after removing the end of the air tube, I found no check valve, but a counter sunk screw with one flat side and an o ring. The screw wasn’t tight enough to hold the o ring against the surface. Easy fix, but I thought it was bad to have to fix a new rifle after 50 shots. So I hope this is not the first of bad things to come, but if it holds up, I believe it will be an awesome rifle to shoot. I’ve got numerous o ring kits, so I’m ready for a reseal job “when” if it happens. Thanks for all your posts. May you have unlimited air and ammo,and shoot straight! GG

PCP Rifle  NLA S510 Carbine with outstanding walnut stock

I am selling my .22 Air Arms S510 Xtra FAC Carbine. It has been sitting idle as I just don't have a use for it. It shoots JSB 18.13 pellets at 860fps, and will stack the pellets in one hole with almost boring accuracy. Topped with a Hawke Airmax 30 4-16X50 FFP AMX IR. Includes 2 Mags, 1/2-20 adaptor, fill adaptor, and shroud end cap.

The wood is very beautiful, with tons of grain pattern and spalting. The wood was pretty dry when I received it, so I gave it a few rubdowns with boiled linseed oil. Metal is in great shape, with one small nick in the shroud end cap (see last pic) Bought this new in Spring 2022, and have probably put 150-200 pellets through it.

Rifle without scope: $1350 + shipping
Rifle with scope: $1750 + shipping

Cashier's check/money order or USPS money order.
