lol. I know I would have never believed those things would come in to daylight bright blinding lights until I discovered those guys. Pretty crazy.

Has anyone fitted the hm1000x with a Huma regulator? If so, what changes did you notice? And does it come with a valve pin.? Thanks guys. I’m curious to know

Considering that your shooting conditions and rifle tunes were not similar at all, I would judge both rifles to be equivalent. Even shooting the same rifle for four cards would likely result in the same spread in scores. Nice shooting.

I think that is a very fair assessment of the shoot.
Both of these rifles are fully capable in the hands of it's owner.
The tables could have easily gone the others way, like you said, on any given day.
Appreciate your comments

New harmonic tuner design (new to me) that is currently adapted to my Lilya and any barrel w 1/2" thread tip. Honestly the BRail moderator broke at the tapered base and I've had it sitting around forever. Needed a suppression device at the tip of my tuner so just superglued the BRail on. It definitely works well for weighting as it spins to return to zero every time.

Have yet to test the actual effect, and yet to commit it to use on any one airgun. It's a good prototype tuner for my Beeman Underlever and will hold the shroud well w the right extention. Still, it likely is best on my Jet.22 longbarrel, and will pair great with the carbon fiber shroud I have due to arrive tomorrow for that barrel.

Note: I did not design these pieces just glue them together for stability and centering.

I ended up with a new seal and the lowest rings I could find and and some some jsb diablos i think i might have it figured out. Starting to get happy with it

I apologize in advance if this has been asked before. I am wondering if anyone has ripped any slugs out of the .177 barra yet. I have zero experience with pcp airguns and just recently purchased an 1100z and am curious if it will shoot them well or not. I live in montana and the with is pretty wild here so I am needing something that can cut through the wind while I am doing some pest control on some ground squirrels. Any input would be appreciated and again, I am sorry if this has already been discussed before.

Wonderful 5 shot group with your .177 Renegade! Pretty darn special @ 50

Lesson learned. Have a great time and enjoy the day.

Quality control is the answer. The bore that the rods slide through are just a little bit bigger on one over the other or the rod diameter is different between the two.

My thoughts exactly!

We have a Bunch of Colored O-Rings That We are Trying to Get Rid of Right now if Anyone Wants to Take Advantage of Cheaper Pricing, Most of it is AS568 Buna-N 70 Duro O-rings. They Were made to be For Color Identification Purposes to use in Rebuild Kits But it just Never Really Panned out the way we Wanted

Below is the Link to the Items!

As Always Feel Free to get Ahold of me about Anything

ChuckHunter, would you think I should take 10" or 6" off my spare barrel ?? my moderator is 14" if I use it so I am thinking 10" route. Also how much of an issue is it to swap barrels on these piledrivers ??? any tips on barrel removal/install that you can share ?? as Hatsan does not give out those instructions.


thanks !

JJ

For me, the Sheridan pumpers were just great guns I still have mine from when I was nine or 10 years old. I had to reseal it once and recently put a scope on it, but it is just amazing. I don't have any experience with the new pumpers I got into Pcp's But I still enjoy shooting my pumpers every once in a while.View attachment 538748

A really nice set up there!

I could really use one of those gauge hole tools!

Hi,

I’m in search of a certain scope. I know the attributes, but not the scope. It is FFP, has a very useable reticle for airgun holdover and has “excellent” glass.

Since excellent is subjective, I’ll define it through my own experience. Better glass than Sightrons STAC line, at or above their siii line.

16x or 24x magnification, ~10-15 parallax

Might “Compromise” on glass and just go with their Stac line, but want to make sure I weigh all my options. Any help welcome

¡Hello from Peru, Ricardo!

I'll attach two Scope Specs Tables for you below.

● One has scopes in the 4-16x | 3-18x 4--20x magnification range.
● The other in the 6-24x | 4-24x | 5-25x | 5-30x | 4-20x range.

● As you requested, the minimum parallax is 10y/15y.

● It is sorted by FFP and SFP — so you can go straight to the FFP section.


● About the glass I cannot tell you that much. But you can see from the prices that there are some significant differences.
And comments on the forums usually affirm the quality of certain brands — especially if you look at the middle and upper range series of those brands:
Sightron, Nightforce, Element, Riton, Vortex, Delta, Hawke, Athlon.
Even Vector with their Continental (and Paragon? and Taurus?) line is quite nice.


➠ You said you want to weigh all the options.
That's precisely the reason these tables exist — like you I wanted to consider all the options before spending my limited funds. So, I started comparing scopes, and finally ended up with these tables.


Happy scope shopping!

Matthias

Pass, when they get cold they will send back towards you.

I have several CVLife BearSwift 5-25x56 scopes I bought on Alibaba for $115 plus shipping. To my old eyes the glass is as good as the Leupold Mk4 i inherited many years ago. Only complaint i have is the paralax/illumination knobs are very tight and hard to turn. Bit heavy but X56 scopes are big.

Have several Spina X50 and X56 scopes. Not quite the glass of the Bearswift but fine quality. A little cheaper than the CVLife.

All are FFP

If you are not doing competition or long range there is no need to spend more than that on a scope. At a certain point it just becomes an ego gratification exercise.

If it's too good to be true..........just sayin

Very interesting. Thanks.

good idea ?, I worked as a hobby in my wood shop , I now wear hearing aids ($7000.00 , 48 place graphic EQ ) and i still do not hear some frequencies very well . Protect your hearing ! EVEN when you think you don't need to , , YES even electric mowers as an example .

Click to expand...

Yeah, PROTECT YOUR HEARING!!

Shooting .22 rimfires without hearing protection ruined my hearing, been wearing hearing aids for decades because of that.

Chinese gun not made by Mendoza. Same company used by Crosman with the Icon and UMAREX gauntlet parts, list goes on.

Chinese custom shop for importers pretty much.

Click to expand...

@Airgun-Revisions I kinda figured that, but didn't want to assume. I was looking at some of the models and wondering of some of them are rebranded models of guns made for other companies.

Wandering more, came across a couple of these on Fleabay. It's branded as a Hammerli X2, the X2 part meaning it's dual caliber and would have come with both .177 and .22 caliber barrels. Just me guessing, but the back cap on the comp tube is exactly the same one that's on both my Mendoza's so I'm guessing Mendoza made them for Hammerli.
This one has both barrels, but the seller is asking quite a bit more than it's worth considering he states it's a refurb and he's never fired it...lol.
There was another one, but the seller only has the .177 barrel and asking even more than the one above.

no thank you shipping over seas it’s bad enough shipping to the east coast from California

Agreed. I sent a springer to Cali from Florida. It cost a fortune. Shipping costs eats up profits really fast. I doubt I would do it again.

One positive is that you now can disassemble and change the piston in your yong heng...I have rebuild my yong heng 7 times in three years. Can do it in about 30 minutes now... So $30.00 for piston gasket rebuild kit

The tank doesn't but the testers will.

Well done, wish you the best. Picked up a .35, from Krale(Netherlands) for $605 (US) in March. Fit, finish and action not close to M3 but at a fraction of the cost, not too shabby. Arrived as older style, " remove-bottle-to-fill," but after $37 (US) to Wes @ airgunarcheryfun in Canada ended up with new male foster-fitted bottle collar. Aluminum 250bar bottle is heavy but not switching to CF, just yet. Lobs FX 81 grain pellets @ 650 FPS accurately @ 50 yards, exactly as I hoped it would. WM
