Benjamin  Best Slug Kratos 22

Yes. The 17 have been excellent for me. The 19s aren't shabby either. This belief that slugs need to be travelling at light speed to stabilize is crap.

I shot some 28.5 Varmint knockers Jace sent me as slow as 583 last night and they held tight. As long as they're stabilized by the spin they'll do what you want.

I shoot a .25 dreamline and shoot 30 and 32 grain slugs as slow as 840fps and they perform just fine.

In fact, I've found they both group tighter between 860 and 885 than they do at 950 and 920
Amen. Wish more people would understand this. Unfortunately what they hear is etched into the brain. Thinking otherwise is blasphemy lol.

Umarex  $ 207.99 Notos

So I'll have thr dream valve and .22l 4500psi bottle but still running the stock barrel (for now). I'm going for max power from this so just making sure the 4.5mm port still applies to the factory barrel.

Thanks for all your guidance on this fun little gun.

Yes!

You need porting in order to get max speeds

Taipan  Taipan Vet 2 Standard

I wonder if wrapping the moderator in felt would help if that is even possible.
Not sure if even possible, tried to unscrew mine and it is on there so tight I cant budge it, feels like Im going to break something trying to get it loose. Not sure if it was put on with loc tite or not havent heard of them being so. Will have to try a little heat and see i that helps.

Where you from?

Ideal i would live in a place where all year i could wear. T-shirt - shorts and flip flops, or that is i use to say that, now that i have almost doubled my weight by a sudden ability to gain weight, well i am not as good with heat as i use to be.
Then again i am old and crusty so not work that will get me sweaty

N/A  My 57 year affair

Ok, great, thanks, I found A.G.R and attempted to send a PM. Apparently I have not made enough posts and can not do a PM? I followed the "hover over my Icon or their Icon" instructions, and I do not see any option for a PM. If you could send him one I would appreciate it. I have looked at a few of his posts, and he is definitely someone who may be interested in what I propose.:)

Pull Cord Reset Arm accessory for Rx Speed Silo avialable now

is the link for the new Reset Arm attachment for the Rx Speed Silhouette set. This is sold separately and all forthcoming Speed Silo sets will allow easy installation of the kit. Now one will be able to reset the targets from the bench which is more convenient when other shooters are on the firing line. This also will allow more practice and less walking back and forth to reset the targets. 4 sets have already been sold so I am looking forward to seeing how they do. If you have a Rx Speed Silo set already and want to buy the Reset Arm attachment kit contact me and I will show you how to modify your existing target to accept the accessory.

HW/Weihrauch  Using a peep sight

While I'm obsessing, lol...back to another point above.

The diameter and side alignment tabs of front sight inserts vary between brands, so you have to do some homework to get what fits your sight. (The "M" numbers refer to the diameter in mm of the threaded sleeve that clamps the inserts into the sight. Sleeves of a given size will interchange between brands, but as you can see the inserts do NOT.)

Some makes of inserts come with a variety of post and ring sizes and shapes, which you will want to play with to see what suits you best. Here is a random selection of Anschutz ones:

Can Believe It!

Big THANKS & admiration goes out to rc4fun & HooXXDVM for 3D printing & mailing out to me a tripod adapter plate that was virtually impossible to find were it not for these guys. What I've come to expect from so many of the great people here! Pay it forward people! It's what makes AGN a growing & worthwhile community!
Yes, great helpful and knowledgeable group we have here. I would like to take this opportunity to mention Dckoch, who gave me great advice as well as provided 3d prints of stock adapters for my HW44's. I am still enjoying these.

Airgun Technologies  Fx dynamic exspres 700 cal 30

Buongiorno,

Sono un tiratore sportivo e sto cercando di trovare la giusta configurazione per il mio fucile FX Dynamic calibro 30.

Attualmente sto utilizzando un cane Tungsteno da 26,4 grammi e sparo slug Javelin 2 gen da 68 grani con un reg da 165 bar. E la mic.impostata 3.5 ps anche se aumento la velocità non cambia.

Con questa configurazione, riesco a raggiungere una velocità di 935 fps, ma la precisione è troppo bassa.

potresti aiutarmi a trovare una configurazione che mi permette di ottenere una maggiore precisione?
Grazie per la vostra attenzione.

thinking of stepping up to ,30 cal fx brk ?

i will say its a tossup between the Fx m3 and the ghost hp,
then he says if i wanted the black hp ghost he could do it for 1725.00 cash out the door.
That’s a great price on the Ghost, its going to depend on which one felt better in your grasp… Me I am partial to the BRKs through their performance afield. Others have had great success with theirs in competitions. If you feel “haunted” tonight? It might not be a bad thing… 🙈

Help, having Basic Marksmanship Issue/ Bad Habits?

If I understand correctly, you shoot fine through a square hole but your group starts to open (drift) when trying to just shoot a group at a spot on the paper.

The only difference I can tell between the two scenarios is that the appearance of the target changes when you shoot at just the paper. With the square hole, the appearance of the square stays the same between shots.

Sometimes when I’m shooting just to see how well the gun will group, I will move my point of impact (with the scope) away from my point of aim. This keeps the target appearance the same throughout the group.

I’m no coach by any means and I may have misunderstood what issue you are having so take the above with a grain of salt.

Good luck and have fun,
Dave

Ever wondered what it's like to shoot a field target match?

Yep, that's the one. The guy with the vision and gumption to turn EBR's yearly "American Field Target" into what long range/high power field target is today.

Extreme BenchRest liked the name Ben was using enough to fight a big nasty custody battle for the the legal use of "Extreme Field Target" and won at least in part by way of ability to pay more for lawyer fees. The summary of the legal battle was that Ben was actively using and had trademarked the name first but EBR claimed to have had an unused website with that phrase that dated back to 2014 or so. Muddy legal waters certainly. Of course, as anyone involved is aware, the actual use and notoriety of that name started with Ben's monthly matches at Phoenix Rod and Gun Club. For anybody that'd like to dispute the timeframes, just do a YouTube search for "American Field Target" and pay attention to dates. And then do a search for Extreme Field Target here on Airgun Nation, again paying attention to dates. You'll find a whole lot of match reports for Ben's Extreme Field Target matches that I wrote that occured prior to the first Extreme Field Target at EBR.

Anyway. Yeah, Ben Spencer. That man has done a lot of good for field target that not many are aware of. He shared his newest vision for field target in the second post of this discussion. Ultimate Field Target, and again, essentially a vision of inclusivity.
Awesome background info! American LD FT or UFT or AFT or Arizona style FT or HP FT, they all work for me (the letter E is overrated) 😏 heck BS FT rocks just as well.
IMO - It’s the big moolah and sponsorship thing and the associated sales and investments that put the sand in my panties.
😬

FX  Panthera HC bottle adapter for the rear

Hello everybody before I buy I want to make sure…I want to add rear 300cc bottle to my hunter compact which has the front 480cc already. Friend Is sending me some spare part such as:

saber tactical front bottle adapter st0056
The silver one the picture. He told me that this should also work to put in the rear I just need to remove black plug in the rear stock.

HOWEVER, should I buy FX dynamic/Panthera double air adapter kit m130 the picture with the black pieces???? Or should the silver one work for what I want to do.
