Nice! I want! Daystate Howlers are made by NSA (Neilsen Specialty Ammo), not JSB just so you know.

Thank you. I got those mixedd up with Daystate RangeMasters. I did put a correction in the pinned comment. I always get at least one thing wrong per video. That's how I roll. Thanks for the technical help! -Nate

Paul does outstanding work. We have a few of his FT targets at DIFTA. The huge range of designs are super fun to shoot and have real character.

We also purchased 10 sets of 4x spinner targets with the 'paddle' sizes custom chosen to make for FT practice over the 10-55 yard range. These really help build confidence as you move from larger to smaller targets at each distance.

These compressors work, however, they've fallen out of favor due to a 12-18 month lifespan and limited rebuilding success. As charlie99 said, best way to test compressor is to deadhead plug (pictured) end of fill whip (hose) and pressurize system. A good compressor builds and holds pressure after shut-off. MAKE SURE TO RELEASE PRESSURE BEFORE RE-STARTING COMPRESSOR. Check spare parts that came with compressor, deadhead plug likely included. Knowing the gun takes air and if compressor checks out might be a problem with hook-up to gun. Would handpumping friend be available to verify proper hook-up? WMView attachment 550976

My hand pumping friend tried it and he couldn't figure it out either. He yas only ever used the hand pump, and is fairly new to this himself. But i think the advice I've gotten here will help when i try again tomorrow. Thank you.

Hey, I finally got to shoot this rig. I love it so far, it seems the groups are tighter than my Maverick and the shot cycle is so smooth. I’ll need to shoot the 30 yard challenge to really see.

I shot about 100 33.95 mk2’s and then chrono’d 3 strings, they averaged 908-910 fps @ 140 bar and PW 10, 3 SD-10 ES. I’ll chrono again when I get more down range. This is the easiest rifle to tune, love a balance valve now.

Simply sweet that the Ghost is performing to your expectations, definitely will be following your progression…

I've been meaning to try the JTS as well, looks like they shoot pretty good for you.

Yes they did and I expected that since my D54 .22 likes them. I will try them in the other guns going forward.

In principle, one should be able to use a modest compressor with a 3,000 psi tank connected to its intake. Will this work?

Depends on the volume, what compressor you have and the lottery of parts quality in that compressor. I just blew the power supply out of my chinese Shoebox trying to do half a fill on a scuba tank. I guess the chinesium mosfets just couldn't handle the current for that long(20 min run before failure) the compressor it'self is fine and runs on dc power just the same.

Maguana · Jun 19, 2025

How many shots per fill are you guys getting with the .22 and .25 K1?

ctshooter · Mar 28, 2025

Thought I would add to Dr. Mikes thread as we touched base briefly on my experience prior to him buying his. I agree with Mike that the semi-bull pup thing does make mounting a scope tricky but it’s doable.

My experience with my BRK Sonoran has also been very solid. I have found the AEA 45gr pellets @ 895fps are the most accurate. My reg came at 186 and has remained there. The ES and SD are also extremely good.

I know Dana got his up to around 100fpe with the Daystate Howlers. I’ve tried the out at 100 yards and they do okay. But the SubMOA barrel is really meant for pellets at 1:26 twist and it does an amazing job. This is seriously an OOTB MOA air rifle.

I'll 2nd (or 3rd??) about having a longer QD fir impact (I saw you're going in a diff direction) and larger 6/9L bottle to start off...I did and happy I went that route.

Eventually I did get a tuxing compressor after relocating where there are no dive shops available.

Side note, you don't necessarily need a dive shop, some industrial shops will also fill (and cheaper in my case), if they don't ask just let them know it's not used for breathing.

Pulling out isn't an effective contraceptive!! But you will end up loving them just the same. Nice line up!

Thank you, Sir, helpful bit of information. WM

Mike!

There was a member here that did a lot of work building/testing his own moderators (since been booted for violation of the rules).
He mentioned that using dishwashing soap was a good remedy for cleaning most moderators. Fill em up, shake em up, rinse and repeat.
Allow to dry thoroughly, and reinstall.
I suppose that your best bet would be to ask STO via email and get their take on cleansing. I see in another thread that you have already contacted STO on a different issue, so at least you can ask about this too.
BTW, I believe that the Falx is your best bet to use for quietness. That model works very well and is not as long as the Sarissa model (tho, I've never compared the two!).

Mike

I have this for dedicated use on my 250z and it REALLY takes the bark out of the .25 Caliber better than any others I have (DFL, 0db,)

charlie99 · Mar 29, 2025

Yes they use the same mags. Its the same magazine as the benjamin marauder and umarex gauntlet as well as beeman chief 2 and im sure as well as others. I purchased them on sale on amazon I think it was like 15 for 2 when i got them.

baranjhn · Apr 9, 2025

Yes. Dealer set up officially is at 5p to 7p. However, I’ll be there by one to set up tables. Anyone one who wants to show up early and help is welcome.

what is the barrel OD, it might be interesting to put on a Carbon Fiber sheeve on one
i do see that Waffencenter list them but out of stock and they would cost to get one

The carbon sleeves look decent in the raw. Not sure what the clear coated one looks like, might have to get some.

So I got a Daisy 887 and 888 for my kids to start out 4h 10 meter and silhouettes. They use a 2.5 oz mini cylinder. I know I can get these filled at a paintball shop.

I own my own business and work real odd hours so im trying to figure out what it would take to fill them at home. I can get a C02 bottle from the local gas supplier. I know I have to either invert them or get one with a snorkle tube. I learned on another thread here that the Daisy part number 5861 (which is no longer available). Is the adapter needed but I should be able to cludge something together with parts available. What I don’t know is what attachments I need to get the bulk CO2 connected to my adapted tank and regulate that. Can anyone give me guidance here?

Hello, it is not hard to do at all. If you have a dry ice plant around, you have it made. Dry Ice is just solid CO2. I have a 125cu tank and can full with 100lb of ice. The plant around here will give for free their over runs. I get the stuff that is the size of rice. Very easy to fill the tank just use a funnel and a dowel to push any that gets stuck. Be sure to have a dip tube on your valve as you want to fill with liquid. I can get around 3years of use out of one fill. There are alot of fill kits out there. Easy to fill paint ball tanks then bulk feed you Gun.

Spring is in the air here in northeastern Ontario. 10* C and finally the snow is melting enough to get out to a friends airgun range. Set up at 30 ,50 ,75 and 100 yards. With a proper set up , same death grip tripod only I brought a seat and was set up on a stable platform.
This rifle is definitely a shooter, I left it slinging the MRS’s at 940 FPS. Hole on hole at 30 and 50 , at 75 the groups opened up to just over a half inch and at 100 just around the one inch mark. I did try a few different batches of the MRD’s , both the old and new shallows group the same.

Happy Easter everyone.
