Thanks for your answers.
I may have been a bit imprecise there.
Of course, I'm aware that the rifle needs to be readjusted to the lighter pellets.
I was just curious whether, with a good setup, you could achieve a similarly high shot count.
As you explained with your Vereran Long example, this is quite possible. Thanks for that.

I can only speak to 177, 22, 25 and I can say that 177 was the most finicky to tune of the 3. At the same time my wishes are for groups and similar trajectories between guns because I will forget my dopes with so many toys and the standards ive put on myself for hunting shots.

Took this 3 out early this morning for exercise before it got warm. Been a long time since I've shot his, all had pressure where I left it months ago.

I'll just poke a few holes here .... Theoben / RAW in the world of PCP's these past 25+ years are by in large changed up very little as there a dinosaur in a world of other species evolving around them.
Yet .... they to this day more than hold there own and folks still wish to purchase & own one or several of these excellent PCP air rifles. May I Have Another Please

I totally get BSA, Webley, Diana etc for there Spring piston style air guns as the most used platform in todays world is PCP.
BSA made a couple PCP styles but were less than service friendly and solid enough when assembled to take real world use & abuse ( relative to other brands )
Diana in PCPs went China ... nuff said there.
Webley far as I know never danced in PCP's

You are right about the old rifles like RAW and others. They are fine rifles, but we all know what their shortcomings are and it seems to take forever to correct them.. Example is the Air Arms S510. What took so long to incorporate an regulator and a power adjuster with detents?? Raw needs to make an externally adjustable regulator. Both of these need a simple basic design change to make them more air efficient. FX seems to address stuff like this every other week, to their defense.

OP, what is making you want a red dot and not a scope? Just my curiosity since I’m in the rabbit hole market too.

For a held pistol.. weight. Scope is 12 ounces heavier than a holosun style dot.

Hadn't shot the EVO since my last post so I wanted to see if it was working okay. Well except for the air leaking out since the last time I shot it a month ago it worked fine. As usual it shoots those Altaros 32.3's very good and it had retained it's zero. I set a 10" steel at 200Y to see how that would go and made a first round hit lower on the steel, corrected, then only missed once in 20 or so shots.

I haven't tried it with pellets yet with the HP reg dialed down so I experimented with that too. I used 16gr Daystate Sovereign's and kept dialing the HP reg down until the SD's got bad which was at 750 fps/20-ish fpe then dialed back up to a 10 or so SD where it shot decently which was 770 fps. This only took a few minutes to do. It put in enough precision to hit a 1.5" spinner at 50Y, and a 2" spinner at 75Y, much of the time. It was really the wind that was causing the misses, though my impression was that the power needs to be bumped up a tad more because the precision was almost a inch at 50Y. I just wanted to see how low I could go and have it still shoot with decent precision.

It's funny how huge the difference is in the G1 BC of these projectiles which is .18 for the slugs vs .031 for the pellets.

I was getting tired so I stopped shooting but it'd be fun to see how many shots I can get out of a 4000 psi fill using this pellet speed. Might have to do a plinkfest in the near future to test it out.

It's convenient to change power levels and a versatile gun as far as that goes. Long range slugger to mild pellet plinker in minutes.

Hello everybody i want to get into the pcp and looking around for some good deals that dont break the bank,anyway here is a scope i came across

Burris 4-16x50mm Fullfield IV 6.5 Creedmoor Scope​

and was wondering would that be a good fir for pcp,looking to shoot 75yds tops,but 50 will be probably very common
i dont know the first thing about optics,always been a bow hunter so i figured better ask you guys than getting generic chat gpt answers
I appreciate it

Excellent site for scope info.
https://www.rimfirecentral.com/thre...ounts-super-sticky-questions-try-here.496141/

Welcome to AGN. I would also like to add that vector optics also offers a nice compact fixed 10x scope too. But I also own several utg's, a couple discovery scopes, a few bushnells, and a few monstrum tacticals. And they all have there use. I also think you should give Matthias thread a read. Good luck and again welcome. Let us know what you went with.

Good point on the fill probe being easier to use than a foster fitting. I have both and a bum right thumb. The fill probe is much easier to use.

Click to expand...

Yeah, I can't imagine using a foster w one hand since often it's a struggle w two. It's the little details that can make something that should seem to be super easy really be not so much.

Loading a spring forwarding magazine might be a struggle for the OP too. Not sure about the Notos, but the Marauder mag is definately not the easiest to load.

the more u shoot the more it kicks.. if u shoot past 2000psi u risk dumping the tank.. if your shooting with the .069 or no screw you can get 3 shots the 3rd shot will kick more as you get closer to 2000psi.

Click to expand...

Shot 1 takes my tank from 4500 to 3500. Shot 2 drops it another 1000psi. The real problem with this is placement of shot two has dropped 4-6 inches. It only gets worse with every shot

Perfect! Thanks guy's!

Does anyone know how many HR 83 total production or total production of HR 81/83?
I would be surprised to find out 84,650 HR 83 rifles were made.
There was not a single Benjamin Sterling at the last 3 airgun shows I have attended or maybe I missed them repeatedly.

I tried the 125gr and 142gr nsa slugs this past week but there must be something up with my rattler. It was only sending the 125gr slugs downrange at around 700-710fps. When I tried to increase the regulator pressure I was met with a bunch of air dumping after each shot. Thinking I brought it up too far I turned it down 10ish clicks but the same extremely low shot count and poor performance beyond 50y. I ran out of time but I'm going to have to do some digging next time I can take it out.

Click to expand...

Yeah i been at it for a minute. Got the 140-150-167 shooting good, around 35 to 40 click

IMHO any of them made in Racine Wisconsin are Sheridans.

Walnut or No!

I was going to shoot but your dates were conflicting on what I saw posted. I emailed Ryan but never heard back from him??? When is your next N50?
