It seems like not many sellers are carrying these. I couldnt imagine why given that these slugs work wonderfully. They hqve a pretty high bc for a slug with slug a large cavity. They shoot well at 890fps (lowest I have tried) and as high as 1020fps with insane terminal performance. Also incredibly accurate as far as 179yds. Sighted in at 34yds I only hat to hold 5.5mils at 179yds.

Who would be interested in buying these and how many?

The shredded slugs are the jsb ko shot into a bucket of water from 3ft above

I'll refrain from posting gore but for those who want to see what these can do here's a link.

Ghost carbine in 177 for hft

My 23" .177 caliber barrel at 100 bar and spring setting 2 shooting AEA 10.3s at 935 for 20 lb-ft is starting to come alive...
Slow them down to 880 and do some 55 yard groups and slowly increase speed on power wheel until the groups tighten up, but be aware that it sometimes takes up to 5 shots between changes for the gun to settle down.

What pistol did you shoot today

i think i would go 15 then 20 then 25
Nope I am a all or nothing type of guy…target set to the fence @ 27.5 yards…pistol sights remain the same..set for 10 meters..I use a roll of body paint paper..first because it’s cheap and it’s great for long distance to check for elevation drops for doping scopes ..anyway’s Daisy 1200 same 10 dollar gun..30 shots down range ..with issues..not making excuses now..had feeding problems..10 misfires..dog running around and neighbors kids playing musical car horns…and the barrel was exiting the pistol 🔫..besides the 2 drifters..28 shots were within 4.5”…not to bad for a broken Spit Shooter…you be the Judge

Sheridan  Steroid Pumpers - Sheridan Benjamin Crosman

Well you store the gun when not using it with 1-2 pumps to seal out dirt .Dont leave the bolt cocked, just pump it once or twice. While hunting you can charge the gun and leave it charged all day. again dont cock the bolt because you dont want to fatigue the mainspring .You can cock it and load the gun like this for at least an hour without harm but if more time than that ID not cock it and cock and load when game is sighted. Max charge on a Sheridan is 8 pumps according to factory manual but 10 ultra max will yeild a bit more power with some residual air staying in the compression chamber. For that you just recock the bolt and shoot out the residual air.

Lets see those pistols turned carbine!!!

I never thought I would be posting in this section (a pistol is a pistol and a rifle is a rifle, right) but I have had a lot of fun today with this folding stock on my HW45.

The red dot wasn't up to the job, so that will be changed for something more robust, but I am definitely hooked.
Very nice! I’ve thought about getting such a stock. Did you need to re-adjust your sights?

HW/Weihrauch  New to PCP

Your new rifle is indeed regulated. In the action , there a pressure reducing valve that lowers the pressure to a constant. This makes the rifle operate so there is little to no deviation from shot to shot. Think , hand loading ammunition. The lower the spread in velocity makes for a much more accurate rifle /ammo combination.

The full length Canadian models are rated same as the US versions at 40 Joules.

As far as the shipping costs, that’s why I buy in bulk , my minimum order for pellets is usually ten tons or more.

I’m sure you’re going to love this rifle I know I’m a big fan of them . It’s the only model rifle I’ve ever bought multiples of.
Yes, it is regulated full length and shrouded. Should get it next week. I feel like when kid waiting for Christmas night...:) As far as pellets, have ordered 2 tins, obviously no way to pay. Hope he will send me the invoice so i can pay e-transfer.

30-Yard Challenge

Leaderboard Submission:

Card: 40-Challenge: 196 13X
Rifle: .22 Benjamin Akela (23.5” Cayden barrel - unregulated)
Pellet: AEA 15.9g @ 882fps
Scope: Athlon Argos 10-40 SFP @ 40X

Good wind conditions for this card. Akela .22 “HP” has been amazing. I believe I paid $185 for it - refurb from Airgun Revisions. Cayden barrel loves the AEA 15.9g.

Typically, I’d use at least 18g to shoot 40 yards with .22 caliber. This Akela .22 HP build with this longer barrel is just a laser - and really nice shot cycle.

N/A  Painting Advice for the metal of a Crosman 114

Oil paint flows out really nice Smooth.
Give it another coat. A little more reduction for the second coat might be good but practice on something first.
An experienced painter can do small parts with a brush and it self levels to look as smooth as sprayed.
The airbrush takes a little more time cleaning up compared to turning a spray can upside down to clear the nozzle. So, I couldn't wait until Tuesday for the 2nd coat to tackle the accessories. I just finished the trigger guard, rear sight, and the heads of the screws but added the butt plate after a little sanding work. I'll do the 2nd coat on the barrel Tuesday still and by that time the stock will be finished, and it can go back together on Wednesday.

Other  Charging handle identification?? Custom gun, well (sort of)

Trying to fix a leak, gun has been sitting for a few years. Attempted to unscrew the charging handle, only to find out it was just a brass piece red lock tited over an already broken shaft. Doesn't want to unscrew. Tried heat, penetrating oil, right now I have a soldering iron on top of the broken bolt. If worst comes to worst I'm going to cut it off so I can remove it to access the valve. Anyone recognize the charging handle block? If I cut it I may have to find a replacement. It's .45 cal if you're wondering.

STO Big Bore moderators

I just finished up my test with the moderators. They were almost equal in sound but the ronin had a deeper tone. The STO felt quiet, but had a sharp higher note that pierced my ear more. Not sure if that makes sense. It was almost quieter but louder at the same time. The ronin was almost louder but in the right tone.

I fired around 50 shots in a row with the ronin and then switched to the STO and it was instantly noticeable that my ears felt it more. The first time I took the texan out to shoot it I screwed on a kami for a .72 cal on it and that is what the STO reminded me of. They both had this higher pitch that breaks through to the ear. I will try the muzzle brake when it comes in and if I see a difference in recoil and group size ill probably just run the brake and call it good, if not it will stay with the ronin.

The STO might have had some clipping. The 1st 2 shots were near where the ronin was hitting then the next 2 shots were 12" left of that, but still next to eachother. I swapped back to the ronin and shots were back on target. Accuracy was good with the ronin. The sub moa barrel lives up to the hype if you do your part and can manage the recoil.

I would not recommend the STO over the ronin for 500fpe. If anyone knows of a noticeably quieter option than the ronin please let me know, but I dont think it gets much quieter for the size than the ronin. My ronin has seen 2-300 rounds of 500fpe so far with no issues.

Which STO? Sarrissa or MUS II

Airgun Technologies  AGT V2L 100

Good choice! I love the scope - I have 2! How quiet is it?
I shot the Vix without the Mod today. POI changed, shot @ 1 inch high at @35 yards. I need to shoot it more without the Mod because with my short shooting session today, I did not notice any difference in sound. I also love my 2 Immersive 14X50's too, and was very surprised that I was even able to shoot out to 100 yards with that Scope!

N/A  Minimal tuning and accurate pcp rifle?

Thanks.

Do you happen to know if a cylinder can be added to a .22 cal x Sniper XR Magnum? I could swear I saw other BRK models that could have a cylinder vs. bottle added. Air and shot count is not an issue.

Tom
Check out this post by a fellow member who did just that. Good luck!
