Ordering a big metric kit has paid off for me. It's helped my collection of air rifles as well as my air tools at work.

I checked everything I could think of. Even went to a gunsmith. I'll let AoA look at it. They said they'd never had a .30 with a bad barrel. Maybe they're right. We'll see.

i had a evol 30 and a evol 22 mini , my mini had a catastrophic failure on my kitchen table the screw in the cocking lever seared and the hammer and spring and adjuster all broke , it litterly took me 6 months to get parts , 2 months after I got it , and if it were not for Shane from AOA I probably would of never got parts , I contacted airarms 20 times ,I liked gun but service was among the worst , I even had to pay for my warranty parts which gun was never apart when it had failed , I traded my evol mini for the epic and it had a 22 and 25 cal barrel , so I got to use it and wow it is very simular gun I never would of known this , but guy I traded my gun told me they had same design he was correct , I did get rid of epic after collecting data , but when I light weight comes out I think I will own one LOU

Gave theHW85 .177 a run. Stan you would like one of these. So easy. I’m going to put a 12 FPE in this one. View attachment 554483Next up a gun I ordered last June. A HW77 .20 and it’s sweet. 3 others I ordered with it, still missing. I was hoping they would show up be reality is setting in. View attachment 554484Within first 50 rounds. This is 10 shots 35 yds. View attachment 554485Last of the arrivals a HW30 .177. I had a .20 on order but wanted them over the border before the tariffs so I went with a .177. View attachment 554498 View attachment 554501Got some nice grain. Here’s a better pic. View attachment 554506These I made for a trade for autographed pictures. Crow

That's gorgeous. And in my favorite Hw30 caliber.

With the see through walls, if the sun was behind you, wouldn’t you be silhoueted in the window if you moved? It seems like it could be a double edged sword

It could create a silhouette effect, especially if there's movement inside the blind. I positioning the blind strategically to avoid direct sunlight from behind or I use additional camouflage inside the blind to reduce visibility. It's a trade-off between the enhanced view and the potential for being spotted.

If it has a zero stop, remove it.

The wind finally laid down this morning. I shot my 77 trying to figure out what the hell is going on with the accuracy. It only shoots FTTs acceptably. Half inch at 25 yards. Most other pellets are over 2". With the zero shifting inches between types to boot. Wondering if it was me or the wind that started to pick up as I went along, I broke out my laminate Hw30. It shot half inch or better in the increasing wind with three different pellets with only minor changes in zero.

The last time I had something like this was a R7 from the same year that had a loose barrel and no choke. This barrel slugs fine but still doesn't shoot well. I'm at a loss. There may be the reason this gun is in excellent condition.

Will say I sighted my Long in with them today and shot about 10 birds and wow the pop is amazing on these things. Will likely just use them for the most part.

I tried them in my Barra 250z and the 20.83gr KO's are the bomb! Definately, after 11 different slugs, this is what I was looking for. Thanks for the tip, because I never would have tried .216 without your recommendation.

I mean that's 34 shots or more at 72fpe that's not bad at all.

mine hates boattail slugs. it’s decent with nsa. jsb 34gr slugs shoot better than the nsa.
i did find that it likes those 34gr jsb king heavy diabolo mk2. it shoots them really well out to 140 yards.
i currently have it set for 900-925 fps with the 34gr jsb mk2 i have my regulator at 16-17 mpa and 18 clicks counter clockwise from zero on power wheel.
15 more clicks gets the 34gr mk2 over 1070 fps

.250 nsa slugs, or the .254?

If the zelos came in a 177 (stupid local ordinances)

Snowpeak makes one in .177, same gun.

Hello all,

I am looking at hunting blinds for turkey hunting next month. Here in WI, we can't use air rifles so my Will Piat tuned, 100 fpe Evanix Rainstorm in .30 has to stay in the house, and I have to pattern my 12 ga with turkey loads, and that gun is very impolite to my shoulder. This all has nothing to do with my question.

I will be getting a blind for turkey hunting, and was thinking there could be more use for the blind after turkey season is over. Woodchucks like to burrow into my burm, even when I am peppering it with turkey shot, and I don't want them moving on to the barn.

Anyone done pesting from a blind? Setting my my Taipan long in a death grip with a chair in my yard might be a reasonable way to stake out woodchucks, and maybe some other wary critters. The wind would definitely be a big consideration with that pursuit.

Obviously anchoring myself to one spot will limit me in some ways, but maybe the benefit of being hidden would be worthwhile some of the time?

Thoughts?

I'm from Wisconsin and unless this changed you can hunt pretty much anything with pcp https://www.outdoornews.com/2024/03...Evers had gone ahead,an animal with a firearm.

Topdeep does not have any in stock. I think i found one waiting for a response.

Insist on "YongyIheng Pneumatic Company," spelled out on compressor ID plate. Chinese copyright law is laughable but at least they draw the line at false representation of manufacturer. Blank, "Made in China," or another manufacturer noted on ID plate is dead giveaway of clone. WM

Setup this evening and the fox did show up, alas over 100:yards away. Too far for an ethical kill shot. Will be unleashing my CZ452 .22 RF on this one…

The .30 barrel still wouldn't group consistently, so I sent it back. It or a replacement won't be here until well after the shoot in Oregon. Typical.

Did you check to make sure it wasn’t clipping?

Pfddi · Apr 14, 2025

I agree with @jwrabbit123 on the weight and the cocking on the older EVOLS. I have one of the new ones that has the new cocking mechanism and it is easier to cock than my other AAAs, but still not as easy as the Epic. That gun also has the external reg adjuster whcih makes it as easy to adjust as my Epic. The weight on that one is closer to the Epic due to the subMOA barrel which is not light. Not knowing what the price on the Epic light will be, the EVOL .30 was $2650 and if the Epic will be sold for $1650 ($1000 off), it will be a steal!

I would not hold my breath on the reversabel cocking lever. If they were going to do that, I suspect they would have done it long ago.
I am with you on the waiting for the next gen though. I never by the first run on a new product.

For me, I like mine on the left. It took less than two magazines to make me like left cocking a lot. But that's bench shooting.

RTI Mora will never be for me with left hand cocking so I'll stick with AGT. WM

Sad report The Diana 75 factory lefty lost power . Shot 3 pellets very low @ 50 foot target . Next shot Red flakes ( the seal ?0 were present in the loading port and the pellet never hit the target only 50 feet away , this is the exact thing that has happened for the second time . Same thing happened with the Diana 60 i bought a few years ago Broken right away The Diana 60 made very bad crunchy noise trying to cock it so i stopped not finishing . Guess i will have to bring two Giss rifles to David Slade in the near future .
BUMMER

That sucks!…however…if your rifles need a Dr. , there’s none better than David Slade. Looking forward to hearing of your patients recovery. John
