That's a good kid!

Raccoon is delicious. Lots of trimming. The fat is a little gamey but the meat is like a rich roast beef. A 25lb hanging raccoon is only about 8lb of meat but I'll spend an hour rather than trashing then if they look like a healthy one.

I've shot 25 cal in one of my Impacts and my Wildcat MK3. Each has a 600 mm barrel and shoots exceptionally well with pellets at 100 yards. I have another impact I use for 100 yd BR competition and it has a 700 mm barrel which I recommend in this caliber. If you are leaning toward .25 caliber, I would get the Impact Standard with the 600 mm barrel. Personally, I've tried slugs and you will likely have to make some major tuning changes to shoot these well. I've never had much confidence in them and prefer to shoot pellets. They are very accurate at up to 100 yds (except .177 cal) and will satisfy your hunting requirements.

Your 700mm BR impact is .22 caliber?

if i had the money i would strongly consider this option, they must be coming out with a new model or line as these are significantly reduced in price. i generally prefer Mil / FFP platforms from my long range rifle days (but they also offer SFP versions) .

it's not a two thousand dollar scope but it's in my opinion a pretty darn good value at $415 dollars. I just can't afford it right now.

the only major negative at least for me would be the parallax value but it sure would work well for me at the distances I tended to shoot at.

Ok, an update from Wyatt and Brian at Ed Gun West.

They shipped out a brand new EzAY fill to replace my broken EZ fill which I purchased in January 2025.

I paid $150 to UA and I appreciate Brian standing behind the product. Hopefully it works once I get it.

Tips for EzAy fill users: Do not leave EZ fill on your fill tank valet open and/or pressurized over night. Also, you can safely fill guns to 250 BAR ( not greater) and it should work as designed. Do NOT leave valve open after you fill your rifle to max fill pressure. Be sure to close the valve on your big tank.

They are getting a lot of returns and repair requests because of the above issues.

My example to Wyatt today and he confirmed:

“ I typically fill or top off my guns at either the Regulator set pressure, or slightly above about 8-10 times during a 3 hour bench session. No bleeding until the ‘end’ of my session. Then I bleed tank only ONE time saving a good amount of air I believe anyway. “

Anyway, hoping this helps.

Thanks for the update Tommy
Only to 250 bar....hmmm
Nope...it stays in the box as a costly reminder not to buy gimmicks + i couldn't sell it in good conscious. I think it is junk
Hope the repairs hold out

Well I caved , mainly because I wanted to see what the internals of the 54 airking look like. Now I’m searching for a full power piston and spring. I got a real good deal on a 7.5J model up here in Canada. I sent hector a message asking if he had some parts. If anyone knows where I can find a piston assembly. Let me know. Thanks

Chambers also has TO1 parts as well

You are awesome -Thank you for doing that. Re: the slug/pellet sizes, I have the .22. 217 slugs fit the slug mag but not 218-re: pellets the ultra knockouts work well-these are 3 -3 shot groups at 25yds with iron sights while trying to sight it in-will be trying 27.5 gr 217 NSA later today

That's crazy that they said 250 bar max - it says right on the unit 300 bar max, and they supposedly created it for field fills of their L2 which is a 300 bar gun . . . .

I've had one for at least two years now (from EdGun, not a knockoff), and I regularly use it to fill my Huben K1 and Sidewinder up to whatever pressure level is in my 9L tank, so usually in the 270 to 300 bar range based on refilling the tank at about 270 bar or so. It works great and I do like it for that use. I do leave the line charged if I am actively shooting, but close the main valve and vent it down to at least under about 125 bar or so when done if I think I'll be back to it within a day, or all the way if I know I'm done for a longer stretch. In the past I used to just close the valve but leave the line pressurized, but based on what I read in threads like this I started venting it. Hopefully it will keep working. I do have one rebuild kit on hand, based on what I read in this thread, but hopefully I won't need to use it for a long time.

If you like h&n try the 36gr HPII’s. Zan 37gr are my everyday go to hunting round. Both (.250) are capable of 3/4” groups at the distance you are shooting. Mind you, 4 out of 5 of our Uragan 2’s and 3’s were tuned by Derrick Wall with an ES of 10 or less.

My brother bought a U3 .30 700mm tuned by DW and there is zero ping compared to a U2 of the same caliber. Honestly the ping from the U2 is not bothersome to me or other animals. One night we were predator hunting there were roughly a dozen deer about 50 yards in front of us grazing when a fox came in at 100 yards. I took the shot, directly over the deer’s heads, dropped the fox, and the deer scurried off about 10 yards. In about a minutes time they were back to grazing in the same spot. They are completely unaffected by the shot cycle and/or ping from a U2. This has been tested many times and not a one off incident, no moderator used.

Thanks Jungleshooter. I prefer SFP, short range would be 15, Longest around 100. Ideally under 600 bucks.

Yes that reticle has a nice center dot and looks like it's illuminated which is even better.

I am looking at Midas 4-16X44

I mostly use jsb pellets in my 22 and 30 caliber guns because they just work. The 18 gr jsb 22 pellets shoot the same poi as the 25 gr @ 50 feet in my RAW. And the 30 caliber pellets in 44 gr perform excellent in both my air rifles.
As others have stated Amazon is not the place I order anymore. I stick with pyramid or Utah.

As Im sure others have stressed, never ever order pellets from Amazon.

Trenier, TPS, AGD & PA are all better options.

Amazon fulfills PA orders, but you won't get the benefit of buy 3 get 1 free, which is the way to go if buying a variety

Also some of the above offer free shipping options if you make a big enough purchase

Glad you have your hw95 shooting well! l've had to go through a similar routine with all of my new Weihrauchs. Remove OEM spring, seal and lubes. Replace with an ARH spring kit, Vortek seal and properly re-lube. And I've always gotten better accuracy by tuning down the power.

I can't help you with cheap and accurate. But if I had to bet on getting accuracy without testing, I would get the 10.3 in .177, and the 18.1 in .22, with both coming from either AA or JSB. There have been other private label brands that came from JSB, and they are usually good too.

Pellets from Amazon will almost be guaranteed to be damaged. Pyramyd is a good source but have become kinda spendy even though you get one free when you order 4. I suggest you order from Trenier AIrguns. Jeff packs them well, ships fast, and his prices are great! For .177 cal, I like JSB or FX pellets. I don't know what kind of rifle you are shooting, so you should pick the right weight. For .22, the same applies. JSB 18.1 gr seems to be the gold standard. AEA pellets are becoming very popular due to their accuracy and very clean appearance. I use them for my .30 cal 100 yd shooting.

mirror mirror on the wall, aligns the scope to the barrel best of all
5 yds to mirror is all that is needed for a 10 yd parallax
plumb bob is for setting a scope/gun combo levels AFTER alignment of scope to barrel,,, if you use a gun/scope mounted level

has anyone gone back to levels and bobs after learning the mirror method of alignment?
cut and paste from google,,,

Align Scope to Barrel​

To align a scope to a rifle barrel using a mirror, follow these steps based on the method described in the context:

1. Use a large full-body mirror and set it up at a distance of about 5 yards. Adjust the scope to 10 yards (or when it is focused in the mirror).
2. Look through the scope at your reflection in the mirror. Use a steady gun rest to keep the rifle stable.
3. Loosen the scope ring screws and rotate the scope until the vertical crosshair intersects the barrel when the crosshairs are centered on the scope objective. This ensures the crosshairs are aligned with the bore.

Newly acquired Daisy 853c. This model is a repeater. Uses a five shot clip. This one is NOS. Serial number indicates it’s a 1989 production. Walter Lothar barrel. Chrony’s in at 531 fps with only 1 fps deviation over several shots using 7 grain RWS Basic lead wadcutters. Today is a complete tear down, lube and trigger job. I got this one to put a dot on. These Daisy’s are incredibly accurate. One pump of of lot of fun.View attachment 577131View attachment 577132View attachment 577134View attachment 577133

Nice find indeed ! i bought two (used /rebuilt ) from CMP . Gave one away , thinking of buying another , What a beautiful rifle , and even my 7 year old neighbor can shoot it . EDIT mine are not repeaters / single shot , oops

Ok, I'll give them a call. Thanks!

I just got a refurb Seneca Dragonfly MK2 from Pyramid. I got about 17 shots through it and it stopped shooting. I was able to get the pellet out, but when trying to dry fire it doesn't sound like I am getting any air. When I pump it I notice some air escaping the hole in the underside.
Any ideas on what it could be or if it could be an easy fix?

Another vote to call Pyramyd. They have great customer service. They will take care of you.

9.99 for four tins was the best pellet deal ever. I went back and it had gone up to 19.99. But the 4 pack was gone last time I looked.
