FX  New to me .30 FX "WarCat”

Struggled to gain ground against a mob of badly-mannered crows for years with my Crosman 760 PumpMaster. They seemed to enjoy sitting just out of range loudly scolding me. Guess they didn't notice Wildcat MK3 Sniper .30 had replaced Crosman on my way to the blind. With dime-size hole accuracy @ 50 yards with JSB 44.75s, let's just say scolding from a distance lost the "fun factor." The Wildcat platform is near perfection, IMO. WM

JTS website

I do not know these day's however I do know one upon a time when the 1st ever lowest cost pre-charged came out except metric fasteners a perfect knockoff of the Daystate Huntsman (was out of patent date) the Bam50/51 to be a Xisco dealer one needed only purchase 1 case of six & $165 per unit to become a dealer. If someone was interested in such you might contact Xisco directly and inquire. hey are (were) easy to deal with and supplied spares easily as long as the supply lasted.

Where to go to slowly sell off my collection?

This is a good place right here. Each item may sell for more on eBay but eBay charges a lot and here is free. The reality is prices on eBay are absurd. I look at fx prices and it is beyond laughable. Almost everyone asks more than their stuff is worth but that place is crazy I don’t know how anything gets sold. I guess people ask super high prices there because of the risk and fees. Anyway AGN classifieds are great. Best thing about the site in my opinion.

Gamo  Swarm Magnum 10x Gen 2?

Don’t give up . Hold experiments are probably the key. The artillery hold isn’t so much of a hold as a loose cradle,at least for me. I’ve been a break barrel shooter for 30+ years now. I shoot Gamos, Crosmans and Benjamins. They all need individual attention. Stick with it, good luck. 👍🇺🇸😉

Wet Mounting a Scope

I sent that video to a friend of mine that shoots competitively. He says everybody in his club wet mounts their scopes. These guys have thousands and thousands of dollars tied up in their equipment. And most all of them use spuhr mounts on their rifles.
So much more to learn
this has been a strange one to me ..how many people know/don't know about this.
I did find it funny that when the guy did a slap in the opposite direction, it went back to true
but how would you know a shift is happening without the measuring equipment?
i'm guessing this is more for high recoil situations, but stuff gets tossed around somettimes
takes a second to do, and you're not buying anything so why not?

FX  Sabre TRS rail, Impact M4, how tall rings for EO Titan 5-25x56?

Im thinking about buying the rail, and wondering how tall rings I would need.. So I dont have the rail.
Then it is still easy to use @Troy Bakel idea. That rail is a flat top no drop… so you can just measure on a table. I use a stack of paper instead of coins, but anything that is small and can lift the scope works.

My flattop rails, for 34mm and 56mm bell with caps, I use 1.375” at least.

Help Dating Benjamin Sheridan EB CO2 pistol

I need some help dating Benjamin Sheridan EB / E9 series CO2 pistol. The serial numbers on my pistol are 120269. So here's what doesnt make sense to me. The book Know your Sheridan by Ronald E. Elbe page 105 says the first Model E pistol was produced Nov. 1977 SN 204220. But on page 102 the SN on my gun dates it at 1975. So if the first one wasnt produced until 1977 how can I have one with a SN that dates it at 1975?

Results  Ultimate Field Target at Phoenix Rod and Gun Club 01/25/2025

I've been contemplating running my 20fpe .20 for the full 72-shot course. I think it'd be fun. I might have to pick an exceptionally low wind day for it.
LOL, don't be afraid I did it (unsuccessfully) with a .177. I must say, had I had my dope more accurate, I feel I could have shot 40. The 85 yd mark is where the .177 pellet becomes very unpredictable. I chose to sacrifice the four extra-long 99 yd shots. LOL, as it turns out, I missed many of the close ones. Most of the 65-84 yd targets I got. I had the tune 945-955 FPS 16.20 jsb, a slug-like pellet. The .20 caliber might be just a tiny better, which might be that last 20 yards.

Umarex  Lost power after mod

Yes, that sounds about right. If you think of the regulator as a door and the pressure inside the tank as a force holding the door closed, the more force being used to hold the door closed will require a stronger hit from the hammer to open it. Very crude example but it works
Yep, then you have to consider dwell time. I think that is where port size comes into play. That pressure has to get through and into the barrel. Like I said.. I'm new to this and trying to absorb it all.

This spreadsheet is probably the best tuning tool you'll find.

Crosman  Crosman 362 with Steel Breech?

Yes, some people sale small washers that go under the tiny 4-48 breech bolt. You can find them in the classified or on ebay. Never used them as I bought aftermarket high strength bolts and turn them to fit the breech. No fear of stripping them. If you use the rear mounted breech bolt you need to use a notched hammer like the 2240.

Regulator issues

Leaving it in your truck is a bad plan especially if it's sitting in the sun getting extremely hot or even on the flip side extra cold will mess with a PCP of any kind. And FX regs are known to creep and you usually have to take a couple dry fire shots to get back to the set point. You can polish it up and make it better but not perfect!

Diana  K98 .22cal. Springer

I wish more rifles had this handy military sling setup. It would make hauling heavy springers around in the field so much easier, especially when the rifle lays on its side against your back keeping it from banging the scope on everything around you.
Practical. It doesn’t matter what product it is. German engineers are on top of the pile. Crow
That is a VERY cool air rifle! Pretty much an instant collectible too.
Thanks, I think so too. I don’t think this gun sold very well for some reason. Fun to shoot. Crow
