Just got my second Impact M3 that I plan on setting up to shoot .22 cal slugs (700mm barrel). I feel like I did ok with my .30 cal benchrest tune but I know slugs are whole new ballgame.

Wondering mostly about the slug liner and transfer port. Are they a "must have" upgrade for slugs or not so much? Anything else I'm not thinking of?

I've heard mixed reviews of the slug liner so I thought I'd try the stock one first. Thanks everyone!

Im trying to teach myself to make my own guides but seem to have run into some issues. My cuts seem to start out well but as I get closer to the chuck I start to get "ribs" in the material. I'm a complete beginner so any advice is appreciated. Thank you!

After adjusting regs to 165/135 for shooting slugs I shot about 100 rounds and my gun I developed a huge leak coming from what I think they call the poppet valve. Anyone have any ideas.

Hey Guys
i would like to know what are the max fps of the following guns with 18 gn JSB, and are these guns good for slugs
1. FX crown with 380 mm barrel .22
2. Uragan .22
3. Brocock bantam Sniper HR

Cheers

Brand new AA ProSport, Hawke airmax 4-16x50. I can NOT get this gun shooting straight. 3 Mounts and 2 scopes. First attempt was cheap Scope on hawke 1 piece medium profile, just to try and shoot while I waited for high profile Mounts to get delivered. Have now tried a hawke 1 piece high mount and a good set of match rings (thinking maybe the hawke mount was catching a bit of the "bell", it is very close) but all 3 attempts same issue. Shooting at least 24 inches right and 12 high. Scope is almost visibly off. Pro sport is a milled dovetail, not bolt on. so what can this possible be??? This is my 1st AA. I know they're quality but I'm so frustrated here.

Wondering if it would be against the rules to contact a member through general discussion to reply to classifieds. If not I’m getting my post count up by asking question regardless. Thanks

And what is the max shot count if fully tuned down

Anyone used a 10X42 SWFA SS scope on a springer?

What do you use if for? Hunting, field target, punching paper?

There are three choice of reticle Mil-Dot, MOA-Quad and Mil-Quad. I kind of like the MOA-Quad. What reticle do you have and how do you like it?

Thanks

I have a Sidewinder 30 that holds zero absolutely fine on my 17fpe .22 97K or any sub 13fpe gun in my safe. Put that same scope and mount combo on my 16fpe HW95 or a 19fpe D56 and the recoil throws shotgun groups. I know the D56 is a scope killer but my question is this: a scope can go bad to the point where it just won't work on heavy recoiling guns but still working fine on the more docile ones? I haven't run into this before.

I am wanting to purchase a fill tank for my Avenger .22 but i am not sure which is best suited for this application

Anyone have any suggestions on upgrades or mods for a 30cal challenger pro? The velocity is actually insane just want the best out of the gun.

I’m the original owner if this fine air rifle I special ordered with walnut stock with cheek rest for right hand shooter. Along with custom super tune with nickel plated piston. The rifle is in very fine condition, with just a few untouched marks on the stock, with no scratches or lines. There’s just a slight bit of tarnish of the bluing on the barrel, but nothing so that would warrant re-bluing of the original patinas. I’ve decided to sell and would love to know what it’s worth. Very pleasant shooter, fast and accurate, with ability to hit aspirin pills at 25’ repeatedly. Thanks for your time.

Where are AEA airguns made?
Thanks

Amazon has two high end sightron scopes one priced at $2900.

SIGHTRON SVIII 5-40x56mm ED FFP Riflescope, Zero Stop Illuminated LRM Reticle​

The other is priced at $1600. cheaper ​

SIGHTRON 25003 SIII 30mm Riflescope 10-50x60mm, Long Range MOA Reticle​

Who knows the difference at these dollar price points- where’s the value?​

What is the max size of pellet/slug that can fit in a bt65 magazine? I am thinking of buying the Gmax no11 53gr slugs but they are like 12.8mm are they too big? Can I atleast single load them? What is the size limit of this magazine?

I have a nice MK1 stock. Will a MK3 fit in it after creating a notch for the ABT release? Will the holes all line up? Thanks in advance. Uj

I have a MK 2 with the new power plenum. And I was having trouble not getting enough hammer spring force to overcome the pressure in regulator... to push a 25 cal slug efficiently (I figure around 965 fps will do... I'm at 950 when I start losing power if I up the regulator with Maximum hammer spring applied. So I ordered and exchanged the new 16mm hammer spring adjuster and the notched cup it attaches to. Still not enough hammer spring adjustment. So I ordered a HUMA Air hammer spring replacement (reported as more powerful). When I replaced the spring I noted that the valve seat in the rear did not fit flush. To get it to fit flush I had to back off the hammer adjustment way lose. The problem from what I can see is when C1 is screwed down, it was hitting the hammer, and sucking in the rear valve.. lifting it off the seat. So I measured the C1 extrusion and it is 4.89mm. I think most videos on YouTube state it should be 6 to 6.5mm. Yes I measured correctly. I don't know how to adjust it other than unscrewing C1.. which is already a pain to keep solid, not sure how that is even possible with 1.25mm less thread engagement. Also don't like the idea of the hammer slamming thru threaded portion of the rod. Are these rods too short? Is there another adjustment? Any suggestions would help. Thanks.. Joe

This should (hopefully) be a fun question for the group:

• Would the blast of air required to get it to that velocity deform the skirt against the barrel?
• Would the "dirty air" coming out behind the pellet flip it over?
• Would the rifeling be too fast regardless such that the pellet wouldn't spin, but just get torn up on the way down the barrel?
  • Would a smooth-twist barrel fix that issue?
  • Badger5th suspects that the head of the pellet may get blown off and leave the skirt in the breech
• Would the increased barrel-whip be the nail-in-the-coffin?
• The BC would be jacked up and cause the pellet to get into trans-sonic soon after firing (Scotchmo's contribution and "hurrumphed" by others)
• Increased Gyroscopic Effect if the pellet engages the rifeling (Dizzums contribution)
• What am I missing?

Can I use slugs in a fx impact compact mk 3

I had my Taipan Veteran for just under 3 years now and it's been brilliant. Is possible to make the safety easier (require less force) to operate? Vendor had no suggestions.

Advice please : i've recently began pursuit in bringing a chinese b3-1 to a different level. Have planned some stock modifications a tune and some trigger work if possible finally found the proper scope and ring combo I was actually seeking for one of the crosmans. .plans change monthly.

I also plan to do a b1 for a kiddo and was hoping to head down a different rabbit hole than that which Alice seems to like. Biggest issue foreseen is getting the slop and rattle out of the barrel. Doable im sure . I would like to set this up for 10 meter issf style ( practice) for the 1/2 decade youth it is planned for. So Advise on Diopter sights that will fit a dovetail grove/rail and front globe ? Is that right. Please. Something affordable but of decent lineage..since Ive allready planneed 3 times the cost of the rifle into the rifle 180 is about max for sights.

Hi Everyone

I have a few questions regarding my M3.

1. Im Shooting slugs in the range of 25gr and 30gr, and would like to know what you guys have found to be the most efficient tunes for your different slugs to shoot between 980fps and 1020fps. My gun is completely stock and I have found that I'm currently getting the best results with the H&N 27gr. Im shooting them at 1002fps pretty consistently. I have my 1st reg at at 185 and second reg at 148 , macro on 16 and micro on 4,3. the valve adjustor is on line 4.5. I am zerod in at 25m. The shot below is a 5 shot group at 67m (74 yards) and my results are pretty consistent but I do find that it also varies based on conditions (obviously) which brings the next Q
   

2. My goal is to be shooting sub MOA groups out at 150 and 200m and beyond, how big of a difference does it make adding the carbon fiber sleeve to stiffen up the barrel and would anyone suggest also looking into a barrel band that connects the the carbon fiber bottle. Can the standard 700mm sniper tension up the barrel or does one need to purchase a tensioning kit?

3. I'm currently using the standard pin probe and I have turned my barrel around to the slug port, would it be beneficial for me to also upgrade to the slug pin probe ?

I'm am pretty happy with all the results I am getting and these are a few questions I have, the persuit of perfection in the pcp comes at great costs , but I'm more interested in the small things that could assist as the things I have mentioned above, I still need to eat.


Thanks in Advance Manne

Hi, I am from Brazil, just bought this Hatsan ht 85 walnut model, the thing is, there is literaly no info about the gun online, never heard of it, google does not show anything about the gun, all i found was in the hatsan turkey original site. I want to know more stuff about the gun, is It spring or gas powered? What was the year this model was produced, is it a good gun? Well, any information would help me alot, i really found nothing by myself. I will leave the link from Hatsan turkey, it is the walnut model.
