Chambering in .270

Question for you all, two actually, for awhile now I’ve been intrigued with the idea of converting a existing PCP platform to .27 cal. Just plain curiosity based on the accuracy and flat shooting characteristics of a powder burner in .270. I’ve reached out to several companies to see about acquiring a custom barrel in .270 for my Synrod with no joy in that pursuit. Of course receiver would also need to be machined. So question #1 what is the consensus on a .270? I think it would have merit, probably take a existing platform in .30 or .357, using the power plant and just changing barrel/receiver to .270. That is if no one has already done it but I never recall seeing one. Secondly what rate of twist would optimize the performance in a PCP platform?

IMHO I really think taking the accuracy of a .25 with the added mass of a .270. combining that with the higher velocity and proper rate of twist, which I think would be key to its performance, could be a showstopper of a combination and hopefully be a pretty flat shooter out to 100 yds+. Of course having it regulated would be a must too.

Lastly any ideas on a gunsmith who might be willing to produce a one off barrel/receiver combo?

Help me choose the right rifle

Thank you to anyone who is giving me the time here with quality answers. I have had low end pellet and BB rifles for 40 years. My last gun that I purchased was 10 years ago and it was a Gammo 177 Single shot break barrel gun. I don’t mind this gun but I would like some thing possibly a little quieter one that Is possibly a little bit more powerful and accurate. I would like to move on to a BCP rifle now. I would like to move up to a 22/25 caliber as well. I have done some research and I am interested in the Umarex origin 25. I do have access to a scuba tank. The things that are important to me are: A dependable accurate gun that has few breakdowns, powerful enough to use for small game, and very quiet because I will be shooting a lot in my backyard as far as practicing and enjoying this with my kids.
Please direct me in the right way, I am looking to have this gun for a long time I am only an occasional user but want something that’s quality when I choose to use it.

Burris AR-P.E.P.R. 30mm One-Piece Scope Mount Question

Are any members running this one-piece Burris mount on their airguns? If so which gun and scope pairing are you running? What are your likes and dislikes? I was looking at the quick detach version to place on my Edgun Lelya with a scope with a 44mm objective for the upcoming squirrel season. I’d like some feedback before I seriously consider purchasing this mount. If you have suggestions for comparable or better mounts that have worked for you I’d appreciate suggestions.

New Impact M3 slug setup

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!

Poorly Mounted Scope

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.

Scope doesn't hold zero on certain guns only?

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.

Near mint 1985 Beeman R8

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.

Valve Rod Length C1 Length

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
