Hold-Over or Dial? …Scope Turret Labels - DYI

Yea I’m a fan of ffp scopes ever since I got into the long range rifle shooting..Just makes sense and a whole lot less confusion in that possibility of a couple seconds for a shot on your quarry. You just have to deal with the shrinking reticle when at low power. Holdover works for me on game and even targets at long range.
I do seem to do more dialing on my pcps than I ever did on my powder burners.

N/A  QD Fox magazines: User opinions

Usually they are significantly cheaper than stock mags and therefore a great bargain. If not I’d just stick with stock. I have them for a mk3 wildcat and an alpha wolf. Wolf mags are flawless the wildcat ones are quite a tight fit. Easily remedied. They function great. Last I knew agt mags were 50 a piece. Qd mags should be 35 for 2. Seems a significant savings 🤷‍♂️

Pellets verses slugs

So I have a FX Dreamline with a 500mm barrel in .22 cal. It's pretty dang accurate shooting Diablo Exact pellets. I'm wondering if switching the barrel liner to a slug liner would increase the accuracy at 100 yards. I would love to hear your thoughts and what slugs you like to shoot.
I will follow the trend and i would recommend you buy something with a CZ barrel, as they tend to love both pellets and slugs, aren't hard to tune, and have thick barrels.

Not saying you can't do it with FX, but it could be a luck of the draw, along with a lot of time, and extra money invested.

At one time I own both guns 48 .22 and 460 .22 tune. These are Diana worst guns. Sorry

I like the LP8 piston and 54. I wish the 54 had the 460 or 350 power plant.

Diana 48
Neg - Very hold sensitive and scope destroyer.
Pos - A good training gun it help master artillery hold. Power

Diana 460
Neg - Very clunky not Germany refine. I'm not saying it a bad gun.
Pos - Power and very accurate

Jake at jb3dpd.com is my goto guy for barrel bands. British so it takes a couple days shipping.
Measure the shroud.
Measure the bottle
Measure the gap
Tell him you want Picatinny (go 3 sides)
Send him all three measurements and your requirements and he will print thE Barrel Bands.

Have not looked on his site but it would not surprise me to find he already has the available.

I had a 350 compact in .22 that was hard to group. Brought it home and said “well, let’s see what this thing can do”. Pointed it at a crow 50 or so yards off and to my amazement it fell without even spreading its wings…and it was constant frustration from then on!
Threw in the towel after a year or so and the disappointment continued as it went for almost half what I’d expected. Sometimes I look for another hoping to fix the inconsistencies and find validation.

Yong Heng after piston replacement

I have tried couple oils in the past. This Mobil one is a twin turbo rated = high RPM high Temp.
I am using it second year.
The oil - any oil, shall lube the 1st stage piston cast iron rings, but shall never reach to second stage high pressure piston composite rings. If does, there will be carbon build up on that piston and eventually degrade the composite ring life.

Detergent motor oil is inappropriate for any air compressor system. That's why you keep having to replace pistons. You need to run an ISO 46 approved compressor oil, that's not me saying that, that's every air compressor manufacturer in the world saying that, including Yong Heng.

I see where my comment before might be confusing. The bottle to barrel clearance, meant more so about the band clearing and not touching and interfering with the barrel.
As far as I know the carbon fiber bottles are Skinner than the aluminum one like I have. My tube came with a barrel band on the 2 ND Zelos I put both types on one tube to see. The short is the normal the talk one went over barrel.
