Noob with compressor.
Been having my big tank filled at scuba shop and topping of guns with the tank.
Bought a compressor. Is it a easy as just back filling from the compressor to the tank? What are the gotcha moves or mistakes in filing the tank with the compressor? I have a female quick disconnect on both the tank and compressor hoses. I assume that a double male connector should work fine to connect then to fill the tank.
Thanks in advance

Is it ok to use Billistol oil in air gun chambers or is there one that you WOULD recommend?

I find my sandbags don't really give me enough of a sturdy base for long distances (100yd) under greater scope magnification. I find that using a combination of my bi-pod and sandbags does a better job than either just the Bipod by itself or the sandbags by them selves. But it still shakes. I'd like to eliminate as much of the shaking as possible with out using a led sled. Does a bench rest do a better job at stabilizing movement on long shots? I have NOT tried one yet. What would be the order in trying to get the most stead shot? Help me with the order below or is this just way to vague. Or am I missing something. In order of best aid in steading a shot?

I want to take breathing, technique, posture all out of the equation.

1) Led Sled - Most steady
2) Bench Rest
3) Sand Bags
4) Hybrid Sand Bags and Bi-Pod
5) Bi-Pod alone.

Is a led sled usable in gun matches?

I got these triplets from the used section on AOA a while ago. Allen Zasadny originally built them all for the same clients years ago. I sent them off to AZ for refreshing. They were leaking and in need of rebuilds. He said they will happily shoot at the 16-17 ftlb level but I have them turned down to 12 ftlb in .22 which is perfect for my max distance of 55 yards. Hitting spinners at 55 is not even a challenge.

I forget everything he does to them but he swaps the barrels, makes the shrouds, scope base, cylinder and cocking handle.

For sure not the most feature loaded pistols by modern standards but the accuracy is impossible to argue.

I have a butt stock ordered from Rink so one will be turned into a carbine.

Serious question:
No matter which type lubricant I've used and please believe I have tried several, so please don't ask. The oil/lube turns BLACK way too fast. This past oil/lube change I've done nothing but fill my rifle about 10 times with an average fill time of less than a minute each.
I'm certain the compressor is on a flat surface, and I am filling to the top of the red dot as suggested.
Is it possible I'm overfilling or underfilling or maybe something else is askew?
******************************************************
From the manual:

Filtration and maintenance: The ISO VG46 hydraulic oil should be changed as soon as it changes color, each fill of oil is about 16 ounces. Change the hydraulic oil every 50 hours filling.
******************************************************************************************************************
When I fill to the specified mark on the sight glass, she only takes 10/11 ounces.

So! Fill with 16 ounces or go by the sight glass??

Sorry for beating this dead horse.

Thanks - Ponz

Hello Shooters!

I was pretty happy with how this shooting session turned out, so I am glad that I had a camera rolling. Here is a link:

I was shooting the hanging spinning targets (Assembly instructions can be found here) and chalk on top of the sawhorse at 25 Yards in 20mph sustained winds. I was shooting my 22cal Avenger shooting 21.14gr Baracuda Match 5.51mm Head at about 875FPS.

I hope that you enjoy watching this as much as I enjoyed pulling the trigger all those times. Woo hoo!!

Airguns are awesome!!

These are my first comments on the Sidewinder .30 Cal that I just received.

The rifle arrived filled at 250 bar and regulator set at about 149 bar.


The rifle feels really light.

My Daystate Wolverine HP. 25 Cal seem to be louder.


Total length is perfect for handling.


The ergonomics are the best I have seen in an air rifle (even better than the Uragan). The one who designed the ergonomics of this rifle is a genius.

The trigger has a long midle weight first stage and shot is not so predictable. But is not bad, you get use to it.


The Sidewinder has a safety/Semi/full auto selector and a safety in the right side above the trigger.

Magazine is all metal and very well designed.


With 12 pellets the rifle was dully zeroed.


At the end of this first zeroing 15 shots session I was able to hit a stone the size of a golf ball at 190 yards. The rifle seems to be really accurate and consistent.


Tomorrow I will make groups and I will measure fps.

Are you fugly? Well that sucks for you cause I can’t help with that.
So are you poor and have limited skills and access to mid to high end tools? I have attached a few pics of bits I bought while wandering are my local hardware stores. Pretty sure you can figure out how to make them work and even modify them for your needs. 1 part pictured may actually be used for something else. I’ll be adding more as I go.

This is a used ( not new ) has scratches and signs of wear all over but nothing to terrible imho lol. just look at the pics. Functions as it should and holds air. As you can see the older guage near the bottle end in the pic is not accurate so I just used the one on my compressor when filling. If this interest you here are the pics.

So I had to see what all the hype was about. A lot of people are raving about the new umarex notos. So by chance I just happened to see one in a sporting goods catalog that came with something else I ordered. Well doom on me and having the credit to buy it so I did. I have to say umarex really has a good product with this little thing. I threw a scope on it and did some quick sighting in this evening and the little regulator was consistent between 819 and 821 feet per second. And yes the little rascal is very accurate. So I'm looking forward to breaking this one in quite quickly. And yes I would definitely recommend it it is an absolute fun little gun.

Hi guys (and gals)!

Has anyone glass bedded their PCP? What kind of experiences have you had?

I finally glass bedded my Hatsan Flash Wood and I have been really happy with it. Don't know if the accuracy has increased that significantly from the glass bedding or if I have just found the right speed for the pellets to be shot at. Have a look at my journey on the glass bedding on the following vide and give your feedback!


Hope you all enjoy the video.

Anyone try these inexpensive chronographs that are $35? I'm not planning on tuning very often. I just need to tune for slugs. I've seen some youtube videos and a few positive post. Just wondering if anyone has compared one to a more expensive chronograph. Are they accurate, and consistant? Looks like there not going to be the most durable for I wont be using it very much. I already have a chosen pellet I just need to figure out what slugs it likes.

So my YH arrived today. I kind of expected it to come with oil but no.
From reading her at AN I'm leaning towards the Seco500.
Manual of course does not mention break in and says 50 hours for first oil change. Sounds like many change their oil the first time at an hour or less run time. What to use for break in oil?
I think I read @12oz for fill (?)

The AOA used section has been responsible for wearing the numbers off my credit card lately.

I called them morning to ask about the FX Royal 400 FT they have listed on the used section. I said it is confusing me because I can’t find anything about it online with that chassis. Sales guy said yeah, it confused him also and asked I believe the sales manager.

He said yes, there is nothing online about them because they only made ten.

So I either bought a rare rifle or a marketing failure.

Now the wait for the brown truck.

I will have to see when I get it if it has a regulator. If not I will add one. Anyone have any input on it. I see Huma makes a drop in. Alstros makes one the goes between the bottle and frame.

Jessica the Iguana Solutions huntress revealed she’s using this combo on her last video.
Anybody using it?
How do you tune for this?
Presently favoring 15gr JSB at 700fps
Thanks

No special reason for asking, just that I haven’t seen any posts from him for almost 2 months. He was a regular poster here and often had interesting things to say.

Registration and Event details and hyperlinks have been added to our Calendar!

Hope to see you there!

Would this work? I have a Hatsan spark compressor and I added a Tuxing large filter to it. The problem is that by the time it fills up the filter to pressure and starts to fill the gun it is close to its max temp so I have to shut it down and wait. I'm thinking to add a shut off valve to both ends of the filter so that I can shut them and keep the filter at pressure while I bleed the line to the gun and compressor so that I can disconnect them. I found a small filter with a built in bleeder that I can put on the line going to the gun to bleed that line and I can bleed the compressor with its built in bleeder but I need two shut off valves, one on each end of the filter. Does anyone know where to find them? I guess it would also be nice to have a gauge that shows the pressure in the filter.
