I just replaced the breech and buffer seal on this newly acquired FWB 150. 1968 model. The gun, spring and piston ring are like new. A lot of new springs these days seam of lesser quality. Why chance it. I’m not sure why you have spring twang. Won’t know till you get inside it. Congratulations, you have a beauty.

Spanish vs US made .22 CPHPs

I was at Walmart earlier today biting oil for my pickup and looked at what they had for pellets. They had Spanish made 22 CPHPs for $8 a tin so I bought one. The American made Crosmans I have are domed but I shot a couple groups with both to see if the Spanish ones are usable in my 22 caliber Bullshark. My conclusion is that they are. I think the domed are a little smaller groups but not a lot different. The two top groups are domed, the ones beneath are the hollow points. The flier to the right on the 2nd hp group and the top hole on the 2nd domed group were both going faster than the other shots. Over 920 when the other shots were more like 915. So maybe light pellets. Still for plinking or short range pesting I think both will work. The outside of the 5 ring is 1 and 3/8 inches. Range is 30 yards.

Taipan Taipan Slash - Accuracy tip.

I had an interesting day last week where I couldn't get a good group with my .22 550mm no matter what I did. It would start to group and and seen as I would adjust the scope the good group would vanish.
Then I found the scope was very loose. and tightened the thumb QR screws. (Eagle Vision rings)
But that being said, I took it out again yesterday and found I was having a hard time getting a good group with the scope tightened like it should be.
The rifle jumps.
When I hold it down the groups go back to very accurate again.
Tip.. Don't let the rifle jump as I believe the pellet, at least at the speeds I'm shooting, get flung out of a barrel that's moving from recoil.
It's a very light weight rifle and I believe this is the issue (if you can call it an issue)
I'm having great success with AEA .22 25.3 pellets at 915 fps.

It surprised me, so you have a lot of water going around, that's good news for everybody in that area.
Check around the river at night, I think you'll find many games. Night takes less energy for the desert creatures to graze and walk around.
The interesting thing is, I'm pretty sure we have the same tree in the desert here, look:

Are glass optics becoming obsolete?
Even if you're 70 yards way, no scope is your best bet. The charging bear can cover 70 yards in 3 sec and I'm not going to pullup a rifle and have time to look for my target no matter what the scope. If I'm going to hunt in brown bear country, I'm carrying a .44 magnum 300–340 gr hard-cast lead and at least 1 month of under pressure practice before hand!!!! Thank GOD I live in N.Y.This fellow is probably hoping you have a digital scope in need of a software upgrade or a dead battery about to quit. He is also probably thinking of how tasty and crunchy you might be.
Of course, electronic optics are being used in combat. But the refresh rate, that bear is moving really fast and needs a pretty good and precise hit even with a .45-70 or more. Optical scopes refresh at my brain speed, slow as that is, digital scopes blur and drag and lag. All I have seen do anyways. I would not want to hit where he was, I would want to hit where he will be and exactly where I would need to, Lord forbid.
