Maybe the ammo he is using. Every barrel has it's preferences.My brother has one, Silver/Chrome whatever, only a few months old, no issues apart from hits a 3 inches to the right of where he aims at 5 meters.
Maybe its just a very close quarters gun.
I can attest to Diablo Exact pellet accuracy. I use
JSB Diabolo Exact Jumbo Heavy .22 Cal, 18.13 gr
Not .177 but I cant imagine they would be TOO much different maybe the .177s are even more accurate if thats possible. I stack these on top of each other in the same hole its ridiculous.
Fair enough. Id just find a manufacturer that is known to have consistent quality, get a few different weights 4 groups of 5 with each to cover any variables and go from there. Thats just me. Also I did notice a huge improvement in accuracy when I gave the barrel a very careful but uniform polish using 4 mops and J&B bore cleaning compound. You have to be very careful obviously, there is a video of a champion marksman shooter on youtube that covers this process exactly. Was already an accurate rifle but it took the group from a half inch at 40 yards to stacking pellets. Plus its far easier to clean now. I wish I could help more but its worth a look.You switched calibers on me, there can be a big difference in .177. If you can shoot well enough, you will see it. Each rifle is different. I'm glad you found the best one for your .22.Some of my .22s, like the Falcon 13.43, . I think the .22 is less particular, anyway; that is my experience.

The Ghost is pretty good too. The M4 and Skout can do caliber changes through. That part is great.Precision up to 100y, reliability, and versatility are what I'm looking for. I'm not adverse to electronics but not having a battery to charge is a bonus.
ThanksYou’ll be good zeroing at 20 or 30 yards and using sub tensions for under 20 yards or dial. The 20 moa rail will cause you no issues at all. I would get regular rings, I’m sure you’ll at least need high height. Might have to ask RAW guys about that.
Hi.I can imagine the relation between the Ocular diameter, and objective tube diameter have an important part the play. With a large objective being necked down to say half it's diameter to meet the erector tube, this would be a cause for more pronounced error. My sightron with a 50mm objective tube, and 30mm erector tube seem to be more sentisitive to eye placement and proper focus to ensure proper parallax. Another sightron, with a 56mm objective, and 40mm erector tube seems* to be less sensitive, all other setting being equal. This is anecdotal to my experience.
What does the math say about this scenario?
For a 335 that looks good! That looks like such a leap in quality over the 225You welcome. Here is a video I took with the tnc335r. It shows how well the optic works for tracking small critters on the move.
Yeah I heard, and american made this time. Costly problems. Wish they would keep their dealers in the loop better. Theres a demand and im not a fan of china (aea) being the only company with that honing machine so I gotta support a US company. I think similar about RAW sometimes.Growing pains...
They bought a different honing machine so maybe putting out superior bore finish nowadays.
Boy — I think you're close! Over the past 40 years I have purchased more guns than you have displayed in your pictures, and I have finally reached the end of the line. When your toys are just sitting on the wall or in a closet or safe for years on end without being touched, it's probably time to start liquidating your least favorite and least used guns to either make room for something newer/more powerful/prettier, or easier-to-access and shoot. From my experience, guns don't appreciate at the rate that we were always lead to believe. And hobby communities like air rifles, Ham radios, astronomy, astrophotography, etc... are no longer growing in popularity. The current generation of young people would rather play video games or produce TikTok or YouTube videos than actually go out and physically participate in a hobby or sport like older generations did.For the last couple years I’ve kind of vanished from the airgun forums / community to follow other interests and hobbies. Now over the last few months I’ve come full circle and rediscovered my love for airguns and modifying them. I’ve jumped from brand to brand, and have held onto my favourites and let the others go. Now for the serious question. How many guns can one own before it becomes apparent that you simply have too many? A few pics of why I’m asking the question. And feeling a bit shameful that that’s not the entire collection.

and if they don't?
See, this is the thing. There is tons of studies, empirical data based on real examples of countries imposing broad scale tariffs over years and years. Undisputed in academics. Will there be a handful of businesses not taking advantage? Sure. However, the other 95% will. But somehow we still want to “hope” that it won’t happen to us. It will though. I guess humans really want to believe what they either fear or hope to be true… anyway, I’m drifting waaaay too far away from airguns so tapping outI guess we will be pleasantly surprised. But in my experience, many companies like to price things based on "what the market will bear".
