RAW Rapid  HM1000X FPS question

If you are getting a single hole at 40yards ...why change anything?

But, if you really want to tinker around,and not mess it all up.... get a second regulator.
Keep one on the original settings and play around with the second.
write it down or take pictures of your adjustments ..keep records as a tuning guide for yourself
If you screw up bad ...just put back in the original regulator

i'd still leave it as is

Tuxing Twin All varieties

Excellent forgot about that, yea I have the cheapest one without the filters etc. I thought you were just running the blue filter! I was impressed by the 119⁰f temperature though. I'm happy with mine so far. Zero issues
I was running with the 5 gallon bucket of water and was surprised by how quickly the water temperature rose. That’s what pushed me to a self contained cooling system. Was going to buy the stock tank but was only 5 liters. The self contained 032 has this tank and small computer fans, I think double the coolant and a bigger fan and radiators will cool better .
I just ordered another radiator to put in line .
Don’t get me wrong, I’m just f. Ing around. I’ll run the compressors nonstop till 4500 psi plus. If I have to fix something I’ll be entertained doing it.
Im gonna look at your gauges….

I’ve got the Gx cs4i which I bought first. It’s a great compressor but the Tuxings for less money are a true bargain.
Had I known about the twins would haves saved the $580.
I do however blow a lot of $$$ on my latest hobbies though.
I think I’m gonna blow some more when I’m sober tomorrow Haa ha!

FX  Fx crown leak !!

Hi,

This is the breather hole for the Bellville Spring part of the regulator. As stated by bchannell above, air leaking from here means one of three o rings on the regulator are bad. Below is a video from Sub12Airgunners on rebuilding the regulator. They do it for an Impact, but the process is identical.

Unfortunately for you one of the three o rings it could be is the one in the receiver block body (#3 in cut-away drawing below - 10x1.5 NBR90). Jeff (of Sub12Airgunners) shows how to get this out, but it is a PIA to do. I bought a set of Jeweler's glasses (with light) and found that it is way easier to replace when you can see it. Also got some brass picking tools. You absolutely don't want to scratch the inside of the block.

The other two it could be the one on the end of the piston (#1 below - 4x1.5 NBR70) or the one on the inside of the regulator body (#2 below - also a 4x1.5 NBR 70) both are easy to replace. I would replace both of those first and put the reg back in to see if it still leaks before going after the PIA one.

Good luck and try to enjoy getting intimately familiar with your expensive toy.

Cheers,
Greg

Depending on what kind of pest control you're doing, a field target legal gun is not going to have the power or be easily adjusted to shoot both pest control and field target well. But a Hatsan 95 runs just barely above field target power limits so if that power level was good for you, you could do both.

I enjoy field target very much. .177 will shoot higher scores since you'll get flatter trajectories and more shots will squeeze through the kill zone for a hit. Great pest control / small game hunters do well at Field target, but mostly they end up being separate guns. I have shot field target with a magazine-fed rifle as well as a single shot. My preference is always single shot but for a do-it-all gun, magazines work great and you can always install a single-shot adapter when you don't want the hassle of the magazine.

For field target having a good rifle is important but having a suitable scope that is properly ranged is far more important. Just go to a match and you'll see quickly how it needs to work.

An FX crown is a good choice. It won't convert easily between the perfect high power and perfect 20fpe (Field target legal) tune, but you can always get it set up for field target / general plinking power and then work out a higher power tune based on hammer and port settings. I would only buy a Walther or FWB match grade rifle if I had a very specific purpose for it that I can optimize the system and leave it alone.

** If the local field target club has extreme (high power / long range) field target events, then you really can build a ferocious pest control rifle in .22 and compete with it. I assume that's not the field target you had in mind, but it's a possibility.

Diana  Diana Model 52 used price

I can count on this 52 .25 to shoot sub 1” at 75 yards using 20.14 FTT. It’s great with 16 grain GTO & 25.43 Kings. The 20.14 are best from what I have seen at distance.
I wouldn’t mind a butt hook & a custom lefty stock. Full new fitted seal and spring. It’s over 20 but probably less than 2K shots.

What size is that scope? Any problems interfering with loading a pellet?

How do YOU challenge YOU?

I like reactive targets, off hand, at various distances. The one-inch spinners that are scattered all over the shooting lane are great fun.

For a close range target pistol shooting, Honeycomb cereal suspended from a string, blowing in the breeze makes a good target. Cherrios or Froot Loops on a string is especially challenging to hit.

When bench shooting paper and get bored, the push-pins holding the target become targets. 😁

Cheers!
