I took one of my .30’s HM100X’s to the range today. Pretty mild conditions 4-6 winds. I was experimenting with a FX tuner on the end of the barrel but didn’t have much success. I would show the whole target but it looks like it’s been hit multiple times with a 12 gage and would not make much sense to anyone but me. RAW’s are certainly capable if the nut behind the trigger can get a handle on reading the wind? Here are a few cherry picked 5 shot groups @100Y without the tuner.

This may be my smallest group ever shot at 100Y?

I have a hm1000x in .22 with barrel set in .25 .30 and .35 that do the following values with the same reg pressure and hammer settings.
Reg is a Huma regulator

.22 jsb monsters redesigned 25 gr 67 joule
.25 jsb 34 gr 80 joule.
.30 jsb 45 gr 114 joule.
.35 is a work in progress needs a bigger plenum and reg pressure.

The all shoot hole in hole at 75 meters.

I have had this scope for many years now and it's been on many pistols..I bought it for my S & W model 41 comp pistol in 1978...mainly because it was shorter in length.. it's a Leupold M8 - 4X power very clear optics with a duel cross recital so at about 15 meters a 1" dot will fill the larger post ..that helps me stay on target better than trying to watch the fine cross hairs instead...the eye relief is quite lengthy but manageable...I do believe that Leupold still carry's a lifetime warranty still ...1" scope rings.. the Vintage Weaver 1" Scope Rings Mounts With Large Thumb Wheels are my most favorite scope rings to use it's very clean looking over today's rings...there are a few sets left on eBay for about 25 dollars.. eBay item number:388765348256...this one is still available...I just bought the other set...sorry I couldn't help myself...as for the scope I just looked on eBay and almost hit the floor...they are going for 500 dollars used..holy crap..here's the item number if you want to check it out....eBay item number:277106566603....I only took it off the 41...because I started shooting competition plates and I needed a red dot for faster target acquisition...I put on a Quick Point from Weaver...with variable 4,6,8 MOA I can cut cards @25 yards with that pistol...if you need anymore info Steveoo..hit me back...Marker

I had the Lazer and lens put in eyes last year. Don’t wear glasses any more.
The sights are what came on and not sure if correct.
The 601 was shooting so low.
I haven’t bought a gas can in 20+ years. Bought one last month and the 601 shot so low I hit my new gas can. View attachment 583742PMO. My mistake. Shot 10 inches low. Not the greatest target holder. 10 meters.
These guns are the best. Crow

Value for price makes it the best deal in PCP guns without any doubt.

• Sweet Baits (late season): Late in the season, when bald-faced hornets are primarily focused on obtaining carbohydrates (sugars) for energy, they are effectively attracted to sweet substances.
  • Examples include:
    • Sugar water
    • Water mixed with jam or fruit jelly
    • Fruit juice
    • Rotten or overly ripe fruit, like bananas
    • Beer
    • A blend of water, vinegar, and sugar
• Protein Baits (early season/mid-season): Early in the season, when bald-faced hornets are focused on raising young, they require protein to feed their developing larvae. Studies show that they have strong preferences for certain meats and are attracted to protein sources.
  • Examples include:
    • Minced chicken
    • Fish meat
    • Partially cooked ground beef
    • Liverwurst
    • Minced pork or beef (viscera or meat)
    • Bologna
    • Hot dogs
• Acetic Acid and Isobutanol Combinations: Research indicates that bald-faced hornets (Dolichovespula maculata) are attracted to acetic acid and are even more strongly attracted to a combination of acetic acid and isobutanol.

• Seasonal Baiting: Adjusting your baiting strategy based on the time of year is important.
  • Early season: Focus on protein-rich baits to target queens and workers involved in raising young.
  • Late season: Switch to sweet baits to effectively target worker wasps.
• Trap Design: Effective traps, whether purchased or DIY, are important for containing the hornets.
  • DIY traps can be made from plastic bottles with an inverted top section and bait at the bottom.
  • Adding dish soap to liquid baits reduces surface tension, making it harder for hornets to escape and speeding up drowning.
• Preventing Bee Attraction: When using sweet baits, adding vinegar can deter bees.
• Toxic Baits (Use with Caution): Toxic baits, like those containing fipronil, can be effective at controlling populations, but their use requires caution due to potential risks to non-target organisms and environmental contamination. Studies on hydrogel baits are exploring ways to improve the safety and effectiveness of toxic baiting.
• Nest Treatment: If a nest is located, professional pest control services or careful application of insecticide dusts can be used to treat the nest directly, but caution is necessary to avoid being stung or scattering the wasps.

I don’t think you would damage it by opening it all the way if anything follow the procedure to reset a star with about 1400 psi and zero Hammer and they didn’t take your time. You can always go higher on the pressure and you can always go up and down on the hammer Until the rifle start shooting the the projectors you choose the way you want. I figure if you need more than 2600 psi on the rack you shooting too heavy for that particular gun but let’s see how it goes.

As others mentioned, wait until near dark or dark, empty a full can spraying into hole bottom of nest. Stand back let them die for 5-10mins. Cut branches holding nest, get rid of nest. Have a second can of spray for any leftovers.

My wife and I just finished dealing with a massive honey bee infestation inside a tree beside backstop. Four cans of spray and a can of spray foam sealed the deal.

When I purchased my .177 RW in LP and my .177 RW in H.P., I had AOA set tune parameters as follows:
RW L.P.
low tune for 8.3’s <12 fpe WFTF legal
medium for 10.3’s @888 fps HFT legal
high for 13.4’s @815 FPS HFT legal
RW H.P.
low for 10.3 at 890 Hft legal
medium for 13.4 at 815 FPS Hft legal
high for 16.1 at 920 fps - pesting
since my main focus is field target im looking for consistent sub 1.5” groups at 55 yards, obviously smaller the group the better, but thats my standard.
My experience with Diablo shape pellets is they do best below 910 FPS With very few exceptions. Remember unless you’re in an enclosure wind and even thermal drift is a thing From moment to moment.

Thx
Which 13.4? The monster or monster redesign?

Mine doesnt shoot the 10.3 at low setting - 920fps. Group is too big
Mine doesnt shoot monster 13.4 at 830fps in low. Groups too big

It shoots 16.2 930fps in high and 13.4 monster redesign 810fps in low - perfect groups.

Is this ok from a new redwolf?

Mine like the JSB 13.4’s both types at 810 fps so my results are similar
