Full video on my channel. I was using 455 grains bb shot. And 590 grains triple 50 cal ball .

I couldn't find the address to the range,or where to show up to participate. I wasnt gonna get my guns out in the rain. Take me forever to clean them.

Well For those History Buffs..
Theoben was founded by Ben Taylor and David Theobald....
Their first innovative Design was the Gas Ram powered Break Barrel..Sirocco..
Next was the Rapid 7(for 7 shot mag)....
Well the rest is History....literally....

AEA is a budget friendly option. I'm no expert and when getting into this I wasn't ready for the more expensive guns. AEA a SS .30 was my my pick. I've not had alot of issues in the 3 yrs of ownership. One broke valve pin which was inexpensive, available and a 15 min fix. I would recommend them to anyone. Price power and options for an entry level gun ain't bad.

I wish I could afford one! That thing is a beast!

Need a new air rifle to replace an old airforce condor ss, regulated with 4500 psi tank. A 14.3 grain pellet at 950 fps does the trick. I shot from a tri pod. Have tank, air supply and a tin or two of 22/14.3 grain pellets. I would like to keep shooting Diablo style pellets. Where I shot and need to has developed over the years. I feel like a slug would be the same as a 22lr.

what and how you shoot would help to narrow the rifles down . what are you looking to do , target , hunt . fix or repair daily ?

All the basics you will need whether a long or a bull...

Well...I was able to zero and absolutely LOOOVE the 600mm AP barrel....dime size zero at 50 yards....ground squirrel at range confirmed zero...

Here are a few videos I took the other night using my TNC225R. There are a couple using the day time digital and then I switched over to thermal for the same videos so one good AB them relatively easy. Apparently a deer died at the foot of a neighbor's dock (the neighbor has gone for the season) and the various birds have found the carcass. The first video is of an eagle helping himself to a meal. He flew off as I got closer. I am in my pontoon boat. I thought I would go and camp out and wait for the coyotes to show up for dinner but unfortunately it got down to 42 and I didn't have the appropriate clothing to stay out at that temp. The other videos are of the buzzards waiting in the tree after the eagle scared them off. None dropped down for more food while I was there. The other videos are of the vultures using the NV and then the thermal so you can see exactly what the ThermNight was seeing. What I saw in the scope was pretty spot on to what the recordings were seeing. And no, I shot nothing that night. I always give vultures a pass as they are nature's janitors! The videos have movement as I was in the boat and the water was not perfectly still where I was recording. I had the scope mounted on my EVOL .30 mounted on a tripod. The videos have been rendered down to HD for YouTube quality so they are not what came out of the scope, which was much higher quality. They are quire large and I can't upload them here in their native format. The final video is of the vultures recorded with my Thermtec 640k thermal scope. Again the quality is reduced to having to "pare down" the video to up load it. I added this to show the difference between the TNC225R thermal and a high-end thermal.

Sounds fun. So many choices, so many airguns, not enough time. Be Well Brothers, B.

I get 40-50 shots @940 with the stock spring and 140-150 bar not sure on pressure off hand. Haven’t had a need to change springs.

I agree with the hades or atomics in .22 , .25 and 30. They are pretty terrible in .177 vs other jsb. .177 jsb KO is best bang for the buck, 10g or 13g either.

Yup, but from factory the gun should already be set up to where all you should od if anything is just adjust the micro and the valve for desired speed and dwell.

Chronograph and/or a few targets, and a tin of your preferred pellets it is then.

I use a credit union. While I never carry a balance, the credit union's interest rate on their credit card is 9.9%. No one has a better "regular" rate. Join your local credit union.

Not all credit union's are the same read up on there policy and fees. Some CU's are as bad or worse then banks.

No, I did that because it isn’t regulated. Manufacture claimed 10 shots

Global warming?

I hope you like those "Nylon Coasters". I've had to tighten them a few times but that is super easy to do (just rotate the knob). Functionally they are zip ties but with a handle incorporated. They have not marked my scope at all but yet they grab well enough I can make changes much easier and quicker. I also cycled my illumination knob about 100 times and it loosened up some. In my opinion Arken could do a little more to get the tension on these knobs dialed in but I'm glad they seem to spend plenty of time making sure the adjustments work very precisely and incorporating good glass. Stiff knobs I can deal with.

I got them and love em thanks for the recommendation.

I'm thinking about going with the Impulse 1A-1350. Utah Airguns said that this would be a good choice. I could also purchase extra baffles for it and also there is another piece that wouldmake the barrel and the moderator match up better. Not that I really need it to macth, but I'll look at it anyway. Also talked to a gentleman from Impulse this morning. He seemed quite confident that his product would be perfect.
Haven't really made up my mind as of yet, but really leaning toward this one.

I have tried the Impulse Air 1350.

The STO Falx high flow is quieter on my .25 M3. I shoot H&N 40gr Heavy slugs at 980 fps.

I know the the STO webpage is Information Overload but they are truly a better suppressor

Sadly, used guns are a crapshoot. The issues with rust, old o-rings, internal damage (bolts, hammers, probes) and neglect are real and present.

A few retail stores sell used guns, no trunk-warranty to worry about.

Nice day and good course. Always fun.

Warning: Don t Drop your Hy-score pistol or it may discharge without the trigger being pulled

After accidently dropping one of my Hy-score pistols in the garden on soft earth ( still ouch!) -- But . . . There are no discernible marks to be found on the outside of gun. The gun was seriously damaged in the fall because now it fires without the trigger being pulled!
Unfortunately the gun (sometimes) discharges when I am closing the gun after cocking. If I push the barrel latch foward and close the receiver after cocking it; the gun will fire (Everytime).
Nothing seems different about the gun - I cannot see any damage. I collect Hy-score pistols and have another that fires when you close the action (sometimes). Now I know that the gun was probably dropped.

If any of the readers know how to fix the gun so it stops firing when the barrel latch is actuated (always) or stops firing when closed sometimes. Please share your experience and know-how. I collect Hy-score pistol and have no idea how to fix it.

My Hy-score is an early model that has sear trip lever that measures around .960 inches instead of the later more common longer one around 1.250 inches. Thank you.

16lbs is enormous for a green iguama!

It is around here! They usually top out around that weight ranger. Although a buddy of mine got a 22lb iguana 3 years ago, the head alone weighted over 2lbs!

I have a couple different StackOn gun cabinets that are pretty full with misc. airguns/guns and assorted accessories. I have kept a few unmounted scopes in here too but they were delicately balanced against other stuff. I go to great lengths to avoid scratches on my firearms/optics so need to find a better way. I still want to keep them in one of the cabinets but don't have a shelf long and wide enough to lay them out flat and individually. I'm wondering if anybody has a neat way of storing scopes that leverage any of the wasted wall space?

Save your boxes and stack them

I don’t think he thinks it a trophy, just an accomplishment. I shoot mice almost nightly because it’s one of the few animals that I almost can’t feel any guilt about exploding them. No concern about hurting the population or messing with the ecosystem. I shot my little army guys when I was a kid. Now I use $3,000 guns to pop mice. I hate cats. So I’m the cat around my property.

For me, mice start getting tricky around 50 yards. A 60 yarder is a nice shot. When I shoot them at 100 and beyond, I just hold for the bright eyes. Then let the slug land where it may.

Sorry - I made a typo. The correct text should have read: Sadly, Alan Duster had to drop out because his eyesight is too poor to allow him to see targets when the lighting is bad. At least I got the table right!
