Just to be clear, I only have one of your mags that I received the other day for my .22 Vix2 . What I was trying to say, was as of now I do not remember having agt brand mag issues with my U1 and u2.But I think he is saying on the Uragan works better and tighter on the vixen.
If you want, send me a picture of the bottom of the magazine, I might be able to tell where the tolerances are different based on the marks left behind after inserting it.
It's true that most my design are tight but two guns might have different tolerances too.
I'm also very curious about this. Some guys mentioned the Maverick putting the mag right into you face left handed. Also, The Leopard.Right handed, but left eye strongly dominant (and needing the least correction). Have shot left handed (with right-handed guns) ever since I can remember shooting, starting at around six. Never have given it much thought until recently, when I started looking at the FX Wildcat Mk3. The FX site warns that a Wildcat may not be a good match for left-hand shooters due to the magazine location, which may be unfortunate. Any lefty Wildcat owners out there that could shed some light on this? Thanks,
Because our laws restrict power to 12/6 fpe for rifles/pistols it means that 77grn .357 pellets go somewhere between 180-250fps. I 3d printed some pellets that then have a .22 pellet pushed into a recess in the front and these weigh about 19grn and travel at between 360-500fpe which is a vast improvement. Has anyone else tried this?

I ended up trading a guy at the gun show for the hatsan one. Once I get some time to get it all put together Ill post a quick review.No experience with one the umarex has been reliable and Benjamin makes a nice one
Yeah the hades/atomics have considerable less than the domed do but they fly just as good in my PHC 30 and Impact m4 .30 at 840fpsI’m definitely going to eventually get some for sure. The hades hold together as well as the domes out of my delta wolf out to the 73 yards I can shoot at home. I can tell they don’t have as good of a BC as the dial up doesn’t match the domes but they are accurate.
Yes it's loud!No moderator?? I bet that one is loud.
looks like a cold solder joint , not nice silvery shiny when first done , dulls with time but smooth surface . The problem with doing this type of solder is getting the piece to be soldered hot enough without ruining it .I’ve done one rebuild with sucsess but I don’t know what is going on in this valve. I sent it back to Tim twice under warranty, and it still isn’t fixed. So it’s likely over my head. He did a complete resolder of the action that may have affected it?
I was thinking of using the other Baker airgun tech for the repair?
Here’s a pic prior to Tim’s resolder.View attachment 594653View attachment 594652
It was soldered back in the eighties by Robert Beemans Sheridan guy. As you can see they did an awful job.

He did a complete resolder of the action that may have affected it?maybe just take the valve apart and smooth things out (Simichrome) ? or get another valve ? I really do not know what this valve consists of so .
What power is needed?Odd statement to me… regarding power V Accuracy because the use of unnecessary power (more than needed) is pointless and wastes air? My thoughts. I see it this way.. putting a projectile where I want it with only the amount of power required to do the task.
