Thank you for opening the door, D; allow me to barge through.

Assuming you attempted to kneel on the sharpest caliche I could find on Ranchito Robinson and transfer into the shooting box on the forced kneeling lane, you enjoyed the unique opportunity to feel a fraction of the knee pain the majority of Field Target shooters feel when we attempt to kneel on forced kneeling lanes. The difference is We The Majority risk severely damaging our knee joints, as opposed to you risking only hide-damage last Saturday.

Stay with me, and try to follow a train of thought. And be aware there may be a leap of logic to follow.

However, and as explained in Saturdays shooters meeting, in my (and AAFTA's) infinite kindness we allow We The Majority of Field Target shooters that can't kneel without risking crippling ourselves the most-generous option of accepting the inarguable handicap of shooting forced kneeling lanes from the inarguably more difficult offhand position. No need to thank me; I'm happy to give you that option. Correction- to have gifted you that option. I even wrapped it🎁... in caliche.

And what about the "brush 🌳 that was impossible to get a clear shot through unless contorted like the Hungarian chick in Cirque du Soleil", you ask?

While setting up the forced kneeling lane I realized I had the option of removing the brush, or leaving it in the way of kneeling shooters to further aggravate anyone still clinging to advantage over We The Majority that can't kneel. I'm probably not the only human being openly discriminated against that savors any opportunity to discriminate against our persecutors. I just might be the only (surviving) human willing to ADMIT my prejudices, none of which are blind prejudice; rather, justified prejudice. The same is not true of anyone guilty of ageism. They should be ashamed of taking advantage of the old!👴

To quote someone I respect immensely, that's "horrifically cruel‼️"

BTW, I'd appreciate you not using a photo of my midget girlfriend to make your point about me being a very twisted individual. Suffice to say it requires no small amount of contortions to keep her happy.😱 Thankfully none of her (many) favorite positions require kneeling.

FX  FX Panthera Slug Power Kit

I bought the Panthera Slug Power kit and installed the hammer on my .22 Cal, but I'm hesitated to install the pin probe because I'm worried the pin probe won't push the slug deep enough past the transfer port or even to the liner, because it really depends on the slug end shape, if it's flat base, the pin probe should push the slug to the same depth as the stock probe does, correct? But if it's dish base, it won't get as deep as flat base? Do anyone get consistent result from installing the pin probe? I have a lot of Javlin 34gr and 40 gr for my Panthera .22 Cal 600mm, do you recommend me to install the pin probe? If so, how many fps will I gain by that? Thanks a lot!

FX  FX Impact Barrel Indexing ?

I normally go around 25 yards, I can see the small groups without needing binos at that range. You'll likely end up with a basic circle as you move the liner to each new position on the "clock". Always using the same hold point, which I failed to mention in my previous post (oops).
I would also not tighten the liner nut too hard in between shots and also at the final location. Tightening too much can stress the liner (similar to what cahil_2 stated).
There are also other posts on this subject if you care to do a search.

Hogs on Camera

Oh BTW, my friend changed his mind, he's going to take his 10/22 .22 LR and try to get the Hogs, he's cheap and doesn't want to spend the money for an Air rifle, well when the Neighbors call the cops, he might change his mind..... :unsure:
maybe use subsonic rounds, they'll be a little quieter

Belville washer lube question

This is the paper that Ernest uses in his video on polishing washers.
Zona 37-948 3M Wet/Dry Polishing Paper, 8-1/2-Inch X 11-Inch, Assortment Pack One Each 1, 2, 3, 9, 15, and 30 Micron https://a.co/d/fvkPGzK
Do not use silicone on the washers. Don't over do the oil.
Thank you @rc4fun
The link did not work but I found the Zona paper on Amazin'

RTI  RTI Mora @ 50 yards !

Great shooting looks like the mora is a keeper 👍
how you likeing it ?
I've found the Mora to be the most "out of the box" ready to perform gun I've owned to date.
That's not to say its competition ready out of the box, simply that as it came to me, it was already 90% of the way there.

Gamo  Better than expected tune up

By clipping the spring wouldn't it also be lowering the fps? Don't really want that. Also if I did clip and didn't like the change can't unclip that spring. A new spring is half the cost of a new gun.

Anyway I'm not trying to discard your suggestion as to a possible improvement only saying that I don't think it's one for my particular needs. I do thank you for taking the time to read and to share your thoughts.
Yep, clipping coils off a spring would reduce power. From my experience, the change is usually in the 5%-10% ballpark per coil. If you want to tame recoil, reducing power is usually required. Glad that you're happy with how the gun is shooing.

Gamo  Shiming the twang out of my varmint

I wish I had your skills.
For me, I added about a pound of lead weight to the rear of my TX today. It seems to "sit" a bit better when I'm in my field target position. Accuracy wise and recoil wise...???

I guess I'll find out this Easter Sunday when I shoot against other PCP shooters.
Good luck at your competition on Sunday. May all of your lead find it's intended targets

.30 cal Fx hybrids going crazy…..

My 600mm came in a 1:22 twist - I think that was standard and 1:16 was the heavy a few years ago. UA shows 1:16 as heavy and 1:40 as standard currently, but I have seen 1:37 too. My 1:22 shoots 44gr pellets and hybrids very well. The Javelin and H&N 50gr are good too. The 43gr Nielsen and 45gr Zan are terrible but heavier ones shoot fine.
