Well, the only AEA that I have are the two Zeus's. I believe you kind of get what you pay for. In the Zeus case it's a basic, heavy, hard-hitting rifle that's fit and finish is on the lower end. I have older Sam Yang bigbores that are way nicer, just not as powerful, but more accurate. That's about the extent of my AEA knowledge.

After last weeks very successful shoot I feel like I have completed level 1. The course I have been shooting has the targets set at 15-25-40 yards and is ment for beginners. I have been shooting it two or three times a week and last week I missed one. I’m not going to try again to get 84/84. I missed because I aimed poorly and it’s getting boring . So I’m going to spice it up .
Now it’s 84 shots but I will move the targets and put them in random positions . This is level 2. There are four lanes . Three targets per lane . Two shots per lane. Three loops make 12 lanes. My score card has 14 lanes . So after six lanes the seventh lane is standing. The 14 lane is a kneeling lane. I will not be clearing the course

Havent posted on here in awhile. Figured Id share my latest boredom. I wanted to ditch the tank as I favor tube guns. So I adapted a aea 600cc tank, external reg and plenum. Adapter is 7075 aluminum. You have to bore some flow holes in the body and plug a couple things. It also has a tensioned tj .25 barrel, custom hammer and spring stop guide ( not shown). I’ll post finished results once everything is back from annodize. Its also got a custom valve and is ported. 165 bar quick test showed jsb 34gr at 1080fps. Im going to tune it for 880fps for a high shot count. Barrel is 27.5”. Lets hope its accurate!

Ok I’m going to try to write out what is noodling around in my head as drive all night long in an understandable manner. This thinking I hope reflects the uniqueness in this sport and is reflective of how great the community is. Now please let me know if I’m wrong on facts or thinking. Anyway I got to thinking about Noor (SP ?) winning rmac. Now I am no expert about how sponsorships and such work but this is my thinking. A guy who as far as I know shoots for Utah Airguns, who is FX through and through to my knowledge. By that I’m reffing to Utah Airguns. Shows up in the BR competition at Utah with a RP and wins the whole thing. He shoots a gun that is without a doubt a huge competitor/ threat to the FX brand for podium spots. A gun company that was sued by FX for its original design. Yet a team that pushes FX hard has one of their shooters on the line with this competitors gun. Is this accurate so far ?? As to me it’s a bit crazy, I have no idea in what other pro level of sport/competition this kind of thing would fly ?? Am I right in thinking this is reflective of the community that comprises this hobby in how tight and supportive of a community it is ? Just curious on others thoughts?

Oh forgot isn’t Thayne team Utah as well ? Would follow the same suit I guess.

In racing (f1 and moto gp) the driver /rider is only as good as he can be on the equipment his manufacturer, team, and sponsors provided him with. Sometimes the racer looses because the other team has better equipment. Its not that he couldn't beat the other driver, he just couldn't beat the other driver with his current equipment.

Mine is approximately 58/59 volts with a pulse length of 1695 on the high power setting but mine is sub 12

I have the krait X in .25 cal. Previous owner swapped out the factory reg with a Huma reg. It’s a great shooting gun. I have it tuned for shooting the jsb 34gr pellets at 70 fpe, I got 84 shots on a fill at this power level. It’s e trembly accurate with those pellets and 2 different slugs I’ve tried in it so far. It’s much lighter than I anticipated, feels great and very smooth.

what was reg setting and what was air capacity 480cc?

How are you doing, brother? I’m also a disabled sure. Yes, like you though. I do get to use brake barrel it does get hopefully hard with you only have one hour in my case. I only have my left arm and I used to be right arm and right eye dominant. Based on my experience and have own several DCP rivals, I think it’s an entry level rifle. The best deal right now would be on a Pinty bull pop or a beeman they have good selection on both of those brands and either regular rifles or both I myself should be with my left hand it being right Dublin prefer the ball but if you’re gonna be shooting from a bench, it doesn’t really matter. You normally get a little bit more shots out of his other rifle but nowadays whether you buy a ball or a rifle you’re gonna get at least 50 shots the rest of the equipment that you’re thinking of sounds very good to me. I found a PCP to be much easier to shoot than any brick barrel or CO2. I would say if you only shooting 20 to 30 yards a scope with 2 to 12 or 4 to 16 it’s all you need plus if you ever think of actual hunting there a lot easier here to live with but again if you’re shooting from a table something that goes up as much as 24 hour it’s good to have or if you just planning a bunch of paper you don’t need a scope. Something from PD or another one of those Amazon brands will do you pretty good and if you order it from Amazon if you don’t like it, you can just send it back if you have any more questions or you wanna tell us more about the connection you’re actually gonna do please post it and I’ll be more than happy to answer any questions that I might be able to

Hello Sir Thanks for the information and support

. I guess I will edit my original post to indicate that I plan on standing when shooting and will be using the pistol configuration of the gun. Sorry for the lack of clarity

. Thanks again!

I upgraded the old hoyt maxxis 31 mid season last year to the new rx-9 ultra. Have yet to hunt with it. I really need to make up my adhd mind on how I intend how filling my tags.. I was set on the bow primarily until a buddy of mine introduced me to these dang airguns....

Here it’s a completely different season. I stopped gun hunting awhile ago. No private land access anymore too many gun hunters on state land

I believe the only final results are from ‘light rifle’

The final results for ‘heavy rifle’ are not in yet.

The ‘unlimited’ matches do not start until Monday.

Is that correct?

Date: 8/4/25
Target: 30-Challenge 200 16X
Rifle: Taipan Veteran 2 Standard (550mm)
Pellet: AEA 18.3g @ 919-926fps (FX Chrono)
Scope: Athlon Argos Gen2 SFP 10-40 @ 35X

The Taipan Vet 2 has been so accurate (and quieter) since I dropped reg pressure from 150bar to 128bar. This 200 tops the 199 that I had on the leaderboard.

It was the only card I shot with the Taipan yesterday. I was sad - needed a boost. Somebody hit my car while parked at a store lot yesterday - and took off. Quite a bit of damage - I love this Mazda3 and she is in great shape, I keep her very clean. Some people are just jerks - will cost me at least $500 (insurance deductible) if I decide to file a claim. Probably well over $1,000 if I decide to pay out of pocket.

I also did some pellet testing with Greg's @NAProf .177 380mm FX Crown barrel. I found a tin of JSB 8.44 - so I gave them a try at 30-Masters - 1st card was a "baseline" using the AEA 8.72s I've had much success with in this barrel. The stunning thing was that the JSBs had a higher velocity than the AEAs - even though the JSBs were HEAVIER. I did a lot of chronoing - the AEAs are longer than the JSBs, might have something to do with the increased drag/friction. In any case, the 8.44s did really well - Greg take note...

195 10X (AEA 8.72 @ 915-922fps)
198 11X (JSB 8.44 @ 940-945fps)
197 10X (JSB 8.44 @ 942fps)
196 11X (JSB 8.44 @ 922-932) dialed down the power wheel a click or two

The 198 tied my 30-Masters high with the .177 Crown this year.

Re. Your Mazda - Ed, check with store manager if they have/use Security cameras.

We have a 2016 Lexus NT in great shape which I dropped off for some routine maintenance, and when my wife Lucy drove it home, there was a big 1-2” dent in door panel. I called the owner of the auto shop and he found that a customer had hit my car after it was completed in their parking lot. Yep, he had security cameras, which after he reviewed, identified the customer in the act. Between grocery store bangs and scratches and other stores, I estimate that our cars have been hit, scratched or dented several times over the years in parking lots.

Great guy, as he is having his body work guy fix it next week on his dime. It’s worth a try.

I believe the only two settings you need to change are the volts and pulse length with the pulse length being the priority in all the videos i have seen they never change hs and ls settings. There is a good video on daystate rebel on a wifi gcu version which as as more control you can even degass the cylinder with it but he never finnished it.

I've watched a few vids and never saw anyone mess with the HS or LS settings but they always have a bit of a difference on them, on the settings I have mine are the same 4.1 and 4.1 shouldn't one be higher than the other?

I've seen different settings on different videos, I wish I knew what is best. One vid shows a lower voltage in the high 50's but pulse over 3300 to achieve high velocities and other with higher voltage like 69+ but lower pulse duration to achieve those velocities...want to know how these work together and is it better or more efficient with high volts and lower pulse or lower volt and higher pulse...if you know of a vid explaining that would love if you share it...thanks for all your feedback. From what I understand the pulse is like the duration in milliseconds

.... But the far end did smoke and the pressure gauge unthreaded by hand....

This photo is taken from a post in another forum. Do you mean you successfully took out the whole cap on the pressure gauge end like this ? If so I wonder why the caps on the two sides are tigthened differently in the factory.

I think I have dimensional drawings of the 5-shot Aeron B96/B98 magazine, if that helps. But on the other hand, if I get sued for sharing this information, I might not have those drawings after all...
