What pellets to order?

I mostly use jsb pellets in my 22 and 30 caliber guns because they just work. The 18 gr jsb 22 pellets shoot the same poi as the 25 gr @ 50 feet in my RAW. And the 30 caliber pellets in 44 gr perform excellent in both my air rifles.
As others have stated Amazon is not the place I order anymore. I stick with pyramid or Utah.

What pellets to order?

As Im sure others have stressed, never ever order pellets from Amazon.

Trenier, TPS, AGD & PA are all better options.

Amazon fulfills PA orders, but you won't get the benefit of buy 3 get 1 free, which is the way to go if buying a variety

Also some of the above offer free shipping options if you make a big enough purchase

Diana  DIANA Discontinued

Well I caved , mainly because I wanted to see what the internals of the 54 airking look like. Now I’m searching for a full power piston and spring. I got a real good deal on a 7.5J model up here in Canada. I sent hector a message asking if he had some parts. If anyone knows where I can find a piston assembly. Let me know. Thanks

FX  Impact M4 - Standard or Sniper?

I've shot 25 cal in one of my Impacts and my Wildcat MK3. Each has a 600 mm barrel and shoots exceptionally well with pellets at 100 yards. I have another impact I use for 100 yd BR competition and it has a 700 mm barrel which I recommend in this caliber. If you are leaning toward .25 caliber, I would get the Impact Standard with the 600 mm barrel. Personally, I've tried slugs and you will likely have to make some major tuning changes to shoot these well. I've never had much confidence in them and prefer to shoot pellets. They are very accurate at up to 100 yds (except .177 cal) and will satisfy your hunting requirements.

HW/Weihrauch  The Saga of my HW95

Glad you have your hw95 shooting well! l've had to go through a similar routine with all of my new Weihrauchs. Remove OEM spring, seal and lubes. Replace with an ARH spring kit, Vortek seal and properly re-lube. And I've always gotten better accuracy by tuning down the power.

What pellets to order?

Pellets from Amazon will almost be guaranteed to be damaged. Pyramyd is a good source but have become kinda spendy even though you get one free when you order 4. I suggest you order from Trenier AIrguns. Jeff packs them well, ships fast, and his prices are great! For .177 cal, I like JSB or FX pellets. I don't know what kind of rifle you are shooting, so you should pick the right weight. For .22, the same applies. JSB 18.1 gr seems to be the gold standard. AEA pellets are becoming very popular due to their accuracy and very clean appearance. I use them for my .30 cal 100 yd shooting.

Real Avid Level Right Pro

mirror mirror on the wall, aligns the scope to the barrel best of all
5 yds to mirror is all that is needed for a 10 yd parallax
plumb bob is for setting a scope/gun combo levels AFTER alignment of scope to barrel,,, if you use a gun/scope mounted level

has anyone gone back to levels and bobs after learning the mirror method of alignment?
cut and paste from google,,,

Align Scope to Barrel​

To align a scope to a rifle barrel using a mirror, follow these steps based on the method described in the context:
  1. Use a large full-body mirror and set it up at a distance of about 5 yards. Adjust the scope to 10 yards (or when it is focused in the mirror).
  2. Look through the scope at your reflection in the mirror. Use a steady gun rest to keep the rifle stable.
  3. Loosen the scope ring screws and rotate the scope until the vertical crosshair intersects the barrel when the crosshairs are centered on the scope objective. This ensures the crosshairs are aligned with the bore.

Daisy  Daisy 853c - Repeater

Newly acquired Daisy 853c. This model is a repeater. Uses a five shot clip. This one is NOS. Serial number indicates it’s a 1989 production. Walter Lothar barrel. Chrony’s in at 531 fps with only 1 fps deviation over several shots using 7 grain RWS Basic lead wadcutters. Today is a complete tear down, lube and trigger job. I got this one to put a dot on. These Daisy’s are incredibly accurate. One pump of of lot of fun.View attachment 577131View attachment 577132View attachment 577134View attachment 577133
Nice find indeed ! i bought two (used /rebuilt ) from CMP . Gave one away , thinking of buying another , What a beautiful rifle , and even my 7 year old neighbor can shoot it . EDIT mine are not repeaters / single shot , oops

Seneca/Sam Yang  New user, new gun issues

I just got a refurb Seneca Dragonfly MK2 from Pyramid. I got about 17 shots through it and it stopped shooting. I was able to get the pellet out, but when trying to dry fire it doesn't sound like I am getting any air. When I pump it I notice some air escaping the hole in the underside.
Any ideas on what it could be or if it could be an easy fix?

Another vote to call Pyramyd. They have great customer service. They will take care of you.

What pellets to order?

I think i hate you *grumbles*

9.99 for four tins was the best pellet deal ever. I went back and it had gone up to 19.99. But the 4 pack was gone last time I looked.
Really, i did not realize it UNTILL 4 very big boxes arrived at my door , , that is 80 tins total and i sold 60 tins @$1 each to some very happy people .

Benjamin Marauder thumb rest install issue

There are similar aftermarket "big" bolt handles for PB rifles like my Ruger Precision Rifle. This one is called the "Hammerhead."

View attachment 577127

I'm surprised someone isn't making them for the Marauder.
I wish I had the skills to do so. Almost every bolt needs to be bigger and levers to in my opinion

Airgun Technologies  The Future of Springers – Are We Still in the Game?

Springers will always have a market.
People afraid of compressed air.
People on a limited budget.
People that dont want to drag pumps or tanks.
Simplicity.

But by design the springer is limited. Not a lot to innovate there. So few moving parts .

What pellets to order?

When Pyramyd first sold the Norma the 4 pack (3 heavy 1 FT) was 9.99. 850 pellets. I bought 4. Wish I had bought 20.

They are very good in all my .22 guns. Just wish they made. 25
HAHAHAHA i bought 20 ,somehow not realizing they were 4 packs , sold them @ the next gun show for $1 per tin .

Other  Beginner 10m Air Pistol Men

Hi!

I’m new to the sport but would like to get started on the 10m air pistol. Just moved to the Kansas City area. I don’t think there’s an air pistol range around us.

Dreams of competing in the Olympics.

1. Where can I buy used air pistols? If I wanted to practice at home, is there a pistol that converts between air and electronic?
2. Where can I buy items to set up a home electronic range?
3. How do I look into competitions for mens 10m Air pistol?

Any and all advice would be welcome!

What pellets to order?

Agreed !! I have purchased ammo from them that was loose & rattling around in the container! I find PA & UA do the best in packing so far. AND Norma 17.6
pellets are pretty darn good for $ and accuracy in all my .22 guns.

Taipan  Taipan Slash first tuning report.

Nice review, and thanks for the information. It's kind of disappointing to have that much power but nothing much to apply it to, nor a way to shoot ammo that would work at more reasonable power levels . . . it seems that all of the variants of semi-autos that shoot out the magazine have the magazine as a huge constraint on what can be fed to the barrel. I was excited to see that the Slash has two different mag sizes to help with this issue, but it seems they did not get it right, at least for launch. Hopefully they will correct it going forward
