I have heard that about the level before. I was looking into some scope rings with the level built. Might have to revisit that again. Thanks much

I started with the level in the rings, it can be a little hard to see. This is the 3rd one I've tried. I like it because it's marked in finer Increments and it's slightly curved. Torquing the rifle on the stand to match the level was my biggest problem. I was hitting a different spot every shot.

Looks good. What kind of tape?

Click to expand...

Just some regular 3M clear packing tape. I'm sure there might be some better water-resistant tape out there but I already had this lying around.

Separate guns for each is the way to go

What I have learned - with scopes also with compressors - in recent several years so many Brands surfaced, and after some 2-3 years most of these new Brands disappeared for whatever that could be reasons. Cloned, copied, rebranded products when came to the end of warranty claim there was just not enough business case to keep these alive.
For a long run, me personally I would stick with a Brand that was on the market in 2020 and still sells today.
Like YH as one example, but you can and shall do your own research.

can't use air for turkey in KY

Air shotgun yes, but not regular rifles of any sort.

I no longer compete in any form of shooting competition. But, I still wanted a single wind indicator flag for my home 50yd range. My Bench is setup in my gun/fly tying room and I only need slide-open the window to shoot my air rifles.

I will leave the tripod on the range but will keep the flag in the house and only put it out when I go out to put-up a target. That way the wooden portions of the flag will not warp and swell excessively. Bye the way, the pivot of the Indicator is a pointed steel pin resting against a flat steel rod inside the dowel.

The tripod is leveled on 2-axis and the balance of the Indicator/flag is very slightly heavy on the vane side of the pivot pin.

I like the Indicator vane to point the direction the wind is blowing.



If you would like to view my Indicator flag in action you can download the video at the link below. I don't have a YouTube channel so the vid. is stored on my free 'cloud' storage.

Nice. Good for you. 1 spin around the dial. Have fun. Crow

I have tried magazines from this maker/seller for my Royales, Streamline and Boss.
They work very smoothly and are well made
He also makes mags for Crowns, which I have not tried
Have any of you?

Is the illumination Red only or can you switch to Green somehow?

Never mind - figured out that it's just Red

I sold my Gen 1 Gauntlet. But when I had it H&N Barracuda Match were my pellet. Ended up tuning it down to 1800PSI using Huben Power Max-ATH. The 50cc plenum was perfect for a .22. Put a 0.7L bottle on. Had to remove the fore stock but that was easy. Don't remember how many shots I got but it was basically an hour of making holes in paper.

Hajimoto supertune kit is recommended. Better hammer spring and the Noring for the breech seal is an absolute must.

Extended magazines, like Hajimoto, are very useful. Easier to load and hold a lot more pellets.

Thanks for the reply I did not think anyone would lol. I did not know about the extended mags , but I don't really want the super tune kit I got this actually to not mess with it , so I could have something to punch paper with while I was modding my Zelos. See there you go pushing me down the rabbit hole as extended mags are not a mod. I ordered 4 more reg ones already. I got some Gold , and Chrome rust oleum , and a bottle of the 2K you pictured up. Going to bling it out all the way. The Zelos.

I guess this gives me an excuse to buy a scope level. I’ve always just eyeball on all my high-power rifles and never had a problem, but I’ll try it.

Down the rabbit hole again for me too lol.

Happy Saturday

Looking to replace the stock gauge on my zelos (receiver, not stock air tube), and also on my Huben Dream valve on my Notos, with Sekhmet digital gauges. Can anyone confirm thread type/sizes for:

Huben Dream gauges (2) for Notos
Zelos stock gauge on the receiver

Thanks in advance for any info.

I have no idea if this is legit it just popped up on my FB page. It advertises thermal and NV overlayed.

I have just down to 110 bars , perfect at 930 fps with 16grn pellets at pw7 , I shot maximum 50 meters.

If I were in the market for one I would jump on that, but I just can't bring myself to spend that kind of money for any airgun. Maybe an original Girandoni.

If it was a lefty.....I would have lit my jeans on fire from getting my wallet out so fast!

Pretty special AGT Vulcan you have Emu!

@Kneepit. Have fun blasting them with your Challenger.

@rut. Thanks. Yes, the 4K is nicer but higher price. I am starting to get a hang of using it after a long time using the Pard008LRF. Yes, the built in ballistic calculator is convenient to use. Have fun dropping them rats in the dark. Cheers.

I purchased a used R10 a couple of months ago, it started leaking about 50 bar every time I took a shot emptying the block but not the air bottle. I resealed the gun, swapped out the valve which I had an extra and regulator. The gun had a Huma regulator, put the old regulator back in, it shot fine. So I resealed the Huma reg and everything was fine. Pulled the gun out this week and doing the same thing. Is it possible that the poppet valve is sticking? Thanks Rick

Gates and sight in 8am, shoot at 9:30am. 60 shots, 10 lanes. Will repost Friday if the match is a go depending on the weather. Weather is down to 30% rain and breezy, targets are set. See you tomorrow

I appreciate that. I see Optisan is very forward about being springer rated. Does GPO actually state that somewhere? Or Mueller for that matter? I know some scopes have quietly earned the reputation for holding up even though it’s not specifically advertised.

so, a Airbug is a Chaser for the most part different grips tube end plug and barrel
most never take the grip frames off to see there is another trigger adjustment screw but of course it is too short to do much as is the front screw
now the rub of changing one to look like the other, parts oh they were available in Canada but they are no more
you can go Buck Rail and go AR-15 or 1911 with and adapter
T.R. Robb in the Uk has some custom parts
i have been down the Rabbit hole since 2019

I have one those. I use it to scare the be Jesus out of kids on Halloween and yes I did turn 75 on the 10th of this month.
I have used to hunt but here in the low country of S.C. that thing is hot, hot, hot.

Mine is made of VERY thin & light mesh material. The breeze seems to blow right through it (but California doesn't have quite the humidity as S.C.).

Interesting, an adjustable mount. How solid is it?

Click to expand...

Real solid...My Texan .510 with 650 grain spire points has recoil thats eats up scopes and cheap mounting hardwarde.. The Pard 007 adjustable base worked perfect on my .510 with recoil ..It works great with day optical scopes to optically center.. It s really well made..
