interesting, thank you

i wonder why it jumps so much?

Did your rifle have a reg factory new? If so, yes you just install it with no machining.

hi thank you for getting back to me, and yes it came with a factory regulator new, the only problem is we asked huma-air to set it for me at 12 lb which they never, we still don't know if it need's to be sorted out before it goes into the air cylinder, because you're meant to screw it at the top then underneath thank you

Firefighter for 25 yrs full time dept never had one blow . Anything is possible , they will start leaking at the neck or if the carbon fiber starts to delaminate .

Ok looks like he has some 25 cal pellet molds left. Yell me I should buy one. I shoot a lot of 25 stuff. Are the pellets good?

Time for some enabling, buy one. I have a few molds and haven't gotten to casting yet but the opportunity is there when I'm ready. And if they don't work for me I'm sure i can get most of my money back.

Remember, the hammer spring tension needs to be strong enough to open the poppet valve. The higher the reg setting the more tension is needed. It's a balance.

I've got a 30 year old daisy (gamo contracted) that still cronos with the factory spec. I can't remember the model number and it's at work, but it's had thousands of cycles and is still going strong in spec. If it's the theory of spring memory, that's basically a non issue too if it's not a super budget gun ime. I've had powder burner mags loaded for decades and they haven't suffered memory either (I do annual checks)

Will adding another Oring work or will cause a leak? Just curious?

I don't find a significant difference between the US and Spanish CPHP 14.3 g .22s. I will continue experimenting as my two FX Streamlines, FX DRS, AA S510XS, and Aremex Gauntlet seem to like them. They generally do better, or close enough to more than justify the cost difference against JSB & H&N.

I shoot (500) - (1,000) each week, but since conditions are often windy, I am reluctant to state hard conclusions, OTOH I am closing on 90,000 pellets, 95% CPHP in the last (3) years shooting.

JSB are often skirt-damaged in shipment, and H&N are not nesessarily as well received on average by my guns.

Being in Canada, does insert some serious cost, choice/availabilty, and shipping issues. I am down to less than (20) tins of CPHP so need to start shopping.

Will need to dig around as I may have exhausted my US supply. I prefer US to other countries, simply because I have far more American friends than any other nationality.

That I shoot silhouettes, off the bench, from 40 to 160 meters (mostly 50 yards and 160 meters) adds a dimentia that others don't experience.

I have found that weighing and sorting to 1/10 grain batches cuts down on flyers.

We all gotta live somewhere

I fill my own tanks, therefore I do not re-certify them. I do inspect them for surface damage which could lead to a rupture, otherwise, I feel that my few fill cycles will not approach the fatigue limit of the tank. If you have to have them filled at a fill station or dive shop, then you'll have to certify them. The annual inspection consists of draining the tank, removing the valve and inspecting the interior for moisture and/or corrosion. You can do that yourself if you feel so moved. The 5 year inspection consists of inflating the tank to 6000 psi; too much IMO.

Just a follow up...today in the mailbox was a box from Hatsan USA. I guess I would consider that good customer service. Took less than 2 weeks, no questions asked...Just "we will send you a new part."

Tony Leach short stroke kit time or warranty it on the cheap. That is a bit scary, did the big black nut unscrew like Frank suggested?

Did you drill a hole in the air tube to corispone to the hole in the side of the reg? Reg need to be vented to the atmosphere pressure otherwise it's just going to end up being what ever pressure that is in the tank. Did you get instructions on how to install it.

Click to expand...

no there was no instructions only a barcode that you could scan for instructions which is what we did and it ment to be a stright swap buddy and the gun can't work without the regulator buddy. thank you for helping me so far

Mid 90s today. Not as hot, but at 5200 feet its a scorcher.

Yep! People don't realize that the higher you go the hotter the sun feels. I'm at 5270 myself and as long as I stay in the shade 90f isn't that hot . Go out in the sunshine and you cook even in the low 80s.

The main reason they only have a 15 year life cycle in the US is because of hydro testing CF tanks taking them to 7500 psi with water cracks some of the fibres and after three test's they start to fail. CF tanks should only be tested with Acoustic Wave machines.

Here in California it's whatever the Fire Marshal of a given jurisdiction deems acceptable for certification. Sometimes even they & the State Fire Marshal seem to differ but I agree that acoustic method is least stressful to tank itself.

50 yards?

Sorry yes. 52 yards I haven't been beyond that yet as I try different ammo and shooting styles.

Hi Humbled-- can you put me on a mailing list for your FT matches I live on the south coast but would like to come back and shoot some FT.
I was very active in the late 90's and took two National championships in 2006 & 2008. Haven't shot FT in a long time though.

50 yards?

I think they lose a little bit of power over time. I had a Daisy 111 I sent to Dennis Baker to reseal and put in a new spring. He just did the reseal, and he got about 210 fps. I asked him to put in a new spring, and he got 249 fps. Granted, the Daisy 111 was about 60 years old, so I'm not sure if this is applicable to newer, more powerful springers. I don't think my 40-year-old FWB 124 had any significant velocity decline before I did some maintenance on it.

Southwest Virginia here. Been in the upper 80's with 70+ humidity for most of the past 2 weeks. At work it's a PITA basically a warehouse with only a few fans that don't do much. Sweat all day and it just clings to you. I carry a 1gal jug of flavored ice water and it's empty by end of my shift.
I spent a summer in Florida once, that was real humidity. Clothes on the clothes line could hang all day and still be damp in the afternoon.

That's one thing about dry heat, it's hot but you're not just dripping wet. When it's hot and humid just everything sticks to you. Stay hydrated lol
