Interesting that mine shoots the JSB Match 7.33g at a muzzle velocity of 448 fps which is 5 fps faster than the RWS Meister 7.0g which is a lighter pellet. Check out the 1.4 std deviation!

this post started in 2016,I wonder what became of this?

I know,I know,one that shoots where I aim!

I'm looking forward to shooting at this venue in Connecticut. Should be much cooler than shooting in Texas! AAFTA will be providing some great items for the auction, so don't miss out on some great gear.

This foam sleeve should slide into the hybrid wirestock:

<b>5-1/2" Long x 1" OD x 3/4" I.D. - Sponge Rubber Mini Handle Grip - (Open Both Ends)</b> These are used on exercise equipment as well as many non-fitness applications. They fit snug over a smooth 3/4" OD shaft. Unlike our other open ended sponge rubber grips, these have square ends, not...

I actually prefer pellets.
In general, I prefer the design of the Prophet 1.
I just have serious concerns about the availability of spare parts, as the model is quite old.
Orders from Europe are no problem, since I'm from Austria.

I cannot comment on the P2 or P3, but I did buy a Prophet Performance with the .22LR right after the P2 was officially released. I did this because I liked the simplicity of design and also hoped I could get a decent price on the old tech gun, and that I did.

As for the RPB barrels in the P3's. I later bought a .25 RPB barrel and am using it in my P1. It shoots very well in the Prophet. Both pellets and slugs.

I doubt that parts are going to be a big issue, but who knows. All I can say is that in 3 years and somewhere between 20 and 30,000 shot fired, I have had one leak from the fill fitting and early on a cracked side lever that was replaced with an updated part. Other than tat, I have had zero issues.
I am sure I will have other leaks, but o rings are o rings.

I wonder, if the bottom of the filter was lower than the compressor outlet, if it would have more water? I imagine for many of us, the filter is higher and that's why the compressor outlet has more water.

Nice shooting! Where did you source these targets? UA asks for $5 ea for their 100 yard targets and that seems steep

I just print them on my home printer, they are on 8.5x14 legal paper not "11x14". They are just the 7,8,9,10x rings from a RMAC, EBR target. Designed them with Inkscape to the correct size.

anybody having problems with the cocking lever getting stuck or losing power?
this could be your problem.
-open up the top rail of the cocking lever and take a look inside. you might have a pellet stuck in there.
View attachment 578152 View attachment 578153
-for loss of power. you might also have a pellet or two between the hammer and poppet valve pin. i found all these slugs smashed around the pin, acting like a shim and stopping the hammer from fully opening the valve.. i suspect it’s my doing by not seating the slugs/pellets fully into the magazine before shooting them. i may have also done this when i had to unjam a pellet from the muzzle with a stick and may have popped the pellet into the space where the pellet probe retracts into when cocked.

don’t be like me i couldn’t find anything online about this so i hope it comes in handy for a future shooter of this platform. shoots!

Same thing happened to me.

The Caimans have a pretty short barrel shroud so they seem to put out a little more noise as compared to other air guns with comparable 500-ish mm barrels.

With that said, it doesn't seem to take too much to tame their bark if they aren't wasting air as folks have described above. Mine is a Gen 1 'X' in .25 cal and a simple FX by DonnyFL mod does the job just fine. It seems like the 'ping' from the gun's action is louder than its muzzle report, but that ping is right by the shooter's ear.

Awfully good shooting guns though (especially after performing the weevil mod).

I tried a Sarissa on my Caiman and it was very quiet (overkill actually) I ended up putting the Sarissa on my .30 Paradigm and took the stock FX off my Crown and put it on the Caiman and an Alteros on my Crown.

shipping worldwide sucks the stories in the states are the same
getting anything out of Germany is a wait and wait some more DHL Germany is a joke
now in the states we have all these fly by night delivery companies i consider them Ubers with packages but they lack one big thing they can't find addresses
well, the rifle is a treat

I contacted factory support. The GS cs4 holds 300 ml, not 500 ml as the manual says. GX said they will update the manual.

I have emptied my CS4 several times (about five, and blew all the water out with air) and refilled it. It takes about 250 (edited because I misremembered; @Kerslachon was correct!) ml. I am going by a measuring cup, not a manual.

Why is it when I release the pressure from the two bleed valves on my GX filter ( lower first, then upper) then open the bleed valve on my compressor I get no release of any pressure at all from the compressor?

Because you... released all the pressure! (Opening the bottom filter valve or the compressor bleed valve is the same thing, in terms of pressure, but NOT waterl). I open the compressor valve first, then the bottom filter valve, and then the upper filter valve. This way, I empty the compressor of water (primary separator), then the bottom of the filter (secondary and less water), then the pressure from the top of the filter to the gun/tank (no water).

Alkin w31 costs what nowadays?
$4,000 or $5,000?
To fill one PCP rifle and maybe a tank.

lol

, just planning for his future airgun acquisitions

I bought an MCT Airwolf in .22 here in the classified that is probably my favorite rifle. I have a MK4 /177 I bought off the classifieds that also is also shooter and the only difference between the MK4 and an Airwolf CDT/MCT appears to be the bottle.

I'm familiar with the Komplete but I intend to shoot more than would be cost effective in that platform. I can see how it would be great in certain situations though. I know the Daystate Huntsman in the classifieds would be a good one to start with but it'll probably be gone by the time I become legal, lol.

There is a conversion to bottle for the Komplete. Then it is just a PCP rifle.

I shot the FX Archery Chonograph simultaneously with the cheap Chinese chronograph. It was pretty messed-up looking, I should have taken a picture. Shots according to the FX were from 917 fps to 863 (80 shots, fell off the reg). The Chinese chrony thought the shots were slower by a little more than a percent.

Having the Chinese chrony around scared the FX into its best behavior; it didn't miss a shot.

You could sleeve it with a pre-cut foam.

What’s the length of pull? 14 inches

Is it a Picatinny/1913 mounting? There are to types one picatinny and other for the TequilaGUN it is mounting removing the beaver tail.

Moreover, what’s the tube size and does it have the same outside diameter as the honeycomb section’s? The diameter of the carbon fiber tube and honeycomb 3D printer part is 3/4”.

Thanks

IMHO - Skip springers and go directly to PCP. It is a very smooth transition from rimfire to PCP. Better accuracy too. I spent many $$$ on Fine German Springers over the last 40 years and even my most modest PCPs will out shoot and out power them all. Fire away...I don't care.

Between the Corvids and Cardinals, I'm confused. What is the purpose of this feeder, 50 yards away? Helping out starving wildlife, fattening up this fall's quarry, back porch entertainment at a safe distance or something else?
Good shots of course.
