Thanks will do. On the tank above I suppose I will have to find an adapter to fill the tank? I guess I will have to get the tank then figure out what fittings I will need. Thanks

My new Arken EPL4 6x24x50 Mil scope arrived today!!

@Ezana4CE - No I have not gotten any insite on what the scope will be. There are no "hints" on their website. I did sign up for the unveiling though...

If it's like the others I have, it will be something to look into!

I received my gk1 Monday from KRAZ Cool was $1250 & $1400 with moderator. If it had gone up in price I would’ve lived without ever having one.

Progressive lenses as mentioned earlier. I shoot with glasses and head position is critical for scope clarity. Need them for loading .177's and such.

I have a set of Decot glasses that I use for trap. Tried them with air rifles. The lenses are only good for distance. Next set of lenses will have to have bifocals.

Try ebay, they are loaded. Just 1 example.

Well, I better knock off my pellet snobbery, these 22.07g JTS shoot fantastic at about 900fps out of this FX 600mm superlight barrel !

It was great wind conditions this morning (rain coming), so I jumped out early to see if yesterday's first card with JTS in the PP was a fluke...

... insane results! Look at the 3 sighters (then dropped 2 clicks on scope and started shooting card) and then these 20 shots - freaking amazing.

Leaderboard Submission:
Target: 40-Masters 199 12X [edit 198 12X]
Rifle: .22 FX PowerPup with 600mm superlight barrel
Pellet: JTS 22.07g at 900fps (888-914)
Scope: Sightron SII 36x fixed power target scope

I don't know why the extreme spread is not tighter, perhaps because I have the FX Chrono balanced on the pellet tins and it moves a bit when the rifle fires?

In any case, the 195 yesterday and 199 this morning are the best two first cards at 40-Masters that I ever had with a pellet. I gotta bring this PowerPup to my brother's house and see how these JTS 22.07s do at 75 yards.

I just checked before posting this - this 199 12X is the best 40-Masters card that I ever shot - beating a 199 11X in 2024 with the .22 Crown and a 198 15X in 2024 with the PowerPup.

You can see from the picture that the wind "flags" were just hanging for most of the card. The rifle is incredibly quiet at this power level. If I weighed these JTS, I could actually see a 200 40-Masters as possible.... but I ain't weighing - not that important to me. I have a stupid deer that I have to keep chasing away from my wind flags - it likes to play with them and knocks them over!

[Edit: guess I was too excited scoring - double checked 6a - it’s a 9. Submitting as 198 12X]

Dang!

Sometimes clearing your browser cache can clear up some problems.

These are a couple of my favorite “Cheapos”. With a little TLC they perform well above their price point.

Nice collection. Have not gone down that rabbit hole yet.

@MACTEN
I'm curious about what running without the check valve accomplishes
Will you explain, please?
Also
While the valve is out do you clean it?

Thanks

With mine almost nothing comes out but a tiny bit of grease and some condensation. From my before after inspection of the cylinders, it seems grease can clog the check valves inside the cylinder causing it not to seal completely and slowing the fill. Letting it move without load seems to dislodge that grease back into the cylinder.

YEP , That's how it goes. with me it's the dang meds that mess me up.

She and he tried to scam me by the most elaborate means. Over two weeks of Gmail chats,I checked her out, and everything checked out,but if it is too good to be true,it isn't true. They even had real websites,with phone numbers you could call up,But never answered and always "please leave your number we will get back to you as soone as possible".
What I am saying is= use your intelligence and rememeber these people may be more intelligent and have more experience than you .

I keep hearing that the big tariffs will be on items $800 and higher. Maybe that's just media BS.. who knows.

Given that the p35x cost the member and smidge over $600, those old import duty fees are out the window. I can only assume this only applies to Chinese merch though. So if you get an AGT, these extra tariffs may not apply.

Is yours a 357 caliber, side lever?

It's an Element max in 457, 330 or 350cc tank. Looking at a 500 or 600cc tank

115BAR right now. at 150BAR I was at max of 980fps, and this is 30 caliber

I keep hearing that the big tariffs will be on items $800 and higher. Maybe that's just media BS.. who knows.

I put a bottle on mine and doubled my shot count from the tiny tube it had.

Funny story about the lanes that are mentioned by Hector, Scott and I both sat on the ground to make sure they were visible above the ground or grass, but we're taller than other shooters and that was an oversight. Ooof! We will correct for next match.

I like to use our shortest wftf shooter before a match to check the lanes. There's usually one or two lanes that have veg grown in or another random blockage.

M4 700mm , what's your regboressure

Like Scott said, running a QB79 on air can be as simple as threading on a Ninja paintball tank.

A good place to start is Bob’s walkthrough on modding one for power and efficiency.

Here’s an example of one I built up back when I first got into airguns

Or a more recent one that uses a lightweight hammer and PEEK poppet. This one is very pleasant to shoot.
