Interesting. I wonder if I could make it smaller…. or would I end up on my own “ Ruby Ridge “
I would look up some videos first before doing anything. But one of the ones I remember watching, also mention the gun is only about 87 decibels loud on average, and that I would likely fare better with heavier lead, so 12 would probably help.Interesting.

looks like a clean up crew to me . I shoot pest Squirrels and have a Fox family that has dinner a few times a week .
I shoot slugs exclusively with the 700. It is extremely accurate with them. I will occasionally shoot pellets but 90%+ of the time it is slugs. I shoot both with the 550. The 550 is more accurate with the pellets, but it is also great with the KOs and FX(RMR). I can shoot the 22g slugs and the 22.07 JTS with the same tune and a slight scope change. The 550 is also quieter than the 700, so it is better for the shorter range pesting.
I have only adjusted the HST on each of the Vet 2s. There was no need to change anything else! The triggers were setup by Tony very well.
I would say the experiencee would be very similar in .25 as I have with the .22.
Didn't say that, I've got a red dot and with the Tequilas new adapter it's a perfect alignment to the top of the front sight or the hole, forget which, but it's an annoyance to me. My PBs are a different story, just iron sights on the handguns.....except for the Mark III, slapped a red dot on it.I’m guessing you don’t like the lollipop sight picture much?
I learned that sight picture from PB shooting so it’s natural to me.
Plain old gun oil. CharlesI own a Umarex SA10, I read on CO2 guns it's better to only use silicone based lubricants. Silicone oil it's not a good lube for metals so I used silicone based grease on the slide.
It seems to work, but then other people told me to avoid grease since it creates gunk and mix with dust creating an abrasive compound".
This grease is quite thick but stays fluid with time, does not become dry gunk and seems not to trap much dirt.
Gun works well, there's a bit of minor wear on the slide (I'm around 2500 rounds) but everything seems fine at a first look... At the same time I'm not sure this grease is "soft enough" , racking the slide gives a "like rubber" sensation...
What do you use?
Interesting. I wonder if I could make it smaller…. or would I end up on my own “ Ruby Ridge “It's loaded with 9 shot but there some videos on YouTube of guys loading up the shell with their own stuff
I'm almost certain that I have seen both of those very nice articles in the past.
