Can I use my .25?
Thinking the larger pellet would be a little unfair with this scoring system.

Seems all of the matches I have ever attended with the exception of the Pyramyd Cup all start early enough no matter the weather. The MDs do a great job as they too are addicted to the game.

yep, pretty much always the case
i did forget the number one thing in my mind:
We need to remember that while "competition" is part of a match for some people.....
Having fun is much more important than winning.

Thank you. I would like to know the diameter. Or if anyone else knows it would be great if you passed that information on. Thank you.

Cavedweller, he sent one after asking me the dimensions and it didn’t fit. I didn’t want to be a pain-in-the-butt and hence the reason I went with the parm lid.

@Croxton63 hmmm .... Eric is very responsive... call or email him. He doesn't mind doing whatever it takes to get it right. Example, I have had the same model athlon scopes with slightly diff dia parallax knobs and Eric ending up making a one off compression ring to fit it... its what he does.

Nice shot and good scope cam footage.

Friendly note, that looks like a mourning dove and if you’re in the US, taking them with an air rifle is not legal. Eurasian doves (aka collared doves) are fair game.

So I think you’re right. I thought it was a juvenile collared dove. When I saw the footage I saw what looked like spots and was disappointed. But when I picked up the body there were no spots on it. It was a mistake on my part because I don’t shoot mourning doves.

However, it is legal to hunt mourning doves in Utah with an air gun. The laws are state by state not federal. It is not dove season in Utah right now though so still a mistake. Won’t happen again that’s for sure.

There have been several variants over the years.
Brass, stainless and nylon bodies.

The oem poppet is most likely nylon. But I would suggest peek if you want to make your own.

Barra 250z .25 cal
31gr Franco slugs @970-975

Nothing special about this other than the mic picked up the sound of the slug hitting and it’s a good one. Still makes me smile every time.

That is pretty cool. I have to stay away though. Otherwise I will end up with a fx leopard priced notos and will hate myself when I realize it. Lol

As for as a new guy (younger ?) He arrives with his rifle ready to try it , but he see's Thomas's and Styre's and big wheels on the scope ! I would suggest pairing the nubie with seasoned shooter and let him share the thomas or whatever . Yes i foresee the "old Grumpy I had to wait X times to shoot that lane "
But what a first time shooting experience !
This is exactly how My first time @ Rozes Hollow went! Although i wasn;t paired with anybody a few of the shooters (one was a National Champ) just invited me to try their setup after they shot .

I was fortunate in that similar situation to where I reached out to the MDs before and one of them offered to let me use his spare setup. I shot a 58 that day (should have cleared it) and then I was hooked. While I had purchased a Marauder for this intended use after using his AirArms S510 I promptly went out and bought one of those. We are good friends today still.
I think the hard part is just getting the new interest there to begin with. I feel like once they are there, the rest will happen as I feel like all the guys I have run into would be more than willing to lend gear and help. Now the sticker shock may prevent them from coming back and thats a different story. All you can do is talk to them and hope they stay engaged and return.

Thank you all for your input. I will be testing these with my Snowpeak M60B converted 25cal. Hopefully one of them will work and give me 50+ FPE with accuracy out to 75 yards. Unfortunately, I am waiting for my fill hose to arrive as the old one leaked and I wasn't able to fill my tank with my compressor. Eager to tune...

Try the Hybrids. I usually don't like them. But the Zelos LOVES them in .22 and .25, so I'm willing to wager the m60b will as well.

Yeah the game changing bore honing machine broke down several times.I personally went and saw the factory when it was unannounced and was sold on the idea. I bore scoped my first submoa .30 and immediately reached out knowing what i saw was not as advertised. Fool me thrice.....

Click to expand...

Growing pains...

They bought a different honing machine so maybe putting out superior bore finish nowadays.

Any update? Did you get this remedied?

In okt 2024 the valve, valve stem, and valve body cost 46.50 euro. And now only the valve stem cost 47,50.

With these prices I will make it my self or hire a machinist to make them.

I will get some peek, nylon and delrin and start experimenting.

Once you have 10 posts (to help reduce the likelihood that you’re a bot or a charlatan) you can sell it on the classified section here. There are a lot of scammers around. Anything that you can do to show you’re not one will reduce the wariness that people naturally have. If you contribute to discussions and ask relevant questions it helps establish your credibility. I have bought a few things (and sold one thing) on these classifieds, but before I deal with a seller or a buyer I take my time and read through their posts to work out if I want to interact with them or not. Responding to this will get you a 7th post.
