The FX SYNTHETIC STOCK is not very strong and is made to fit the action and barrels pretty tightly so it is supported from flexing. Putting a rail on one should have additional reinforcement in a bar inletted and epoxied into the stock rearward and a screw anchoring it from the bottom of the stock up into the bar. I have done this on my Crown and Wildcat and a couple of powder burner rifles with synthetic stocks. This mod alone completely changed the accuracy on the powder burners.

Can you please post pics of your reinforcement mods to the stocks.

I've taken to only head shots on Starlings.....I either hit them or miss.

I just bought my first one (PCP) and it was a Notos. Love it so far.

My first PCP was a Notos, which I purchased in December of last year. Before even firing it, I added a Huben regulator, Tuxing bottle, Buck Rail lower, etc. It gets addicting. It led to me purchasing a Skout Evo and Leshiy 2. Although it's the least expensive of the 3 PCP that I own, it's still very fun and gets used often.

So do we have a consensus on using 300 Bar bottles? Is the M3 actually more suited to dealing with 300Bar due to the dual reg system?

Yes

I took the stock off and the jagged hole is actually created when they make the threaded holes for the screws that hold the stock on . It doesn’t look like it would affect anything. There is nothing below the stock screws inside the action. I also fitted the magnetic absorber weight. I didn’t like the shorter lg500 handle. I tried it both ways but the original factory handle turned around like you suggested actually feels better.

Dang. I have the same setup as you. SE FL and the pump is in my garage. Can you please link one you recommend? I guess I am sending this one back.

Wouldn't send it back, M50 makes a perfect "finishing touch" for moisture removal. Check out my picture, you'll see I use both. Don't have a link but search, "PCP coalescing water filters," on eBay, you'll find plenty. There're even cutaway diagrams to show how they work. Expect to pay around $110-125, a good look at my picture will show what they look like, it's the copper-colored one nearest the back wall. WM

I bought my Yong Heng from Amazon based upon their generous return policy. If it had arrived without a Yong Heng nameplate it was going back. I think it was a little more expensive than one from Aliexpress but not a lot. I've had good luck with Aliexpress on little stuff, however.

How is it holding up so far? And do they come with everything necessary to fill your guns/tanks?

What’s interesting about a Poly is some of my guns will easily let me go well beyond 50 yards. But if a gun won’t let me shoot nickels at 50, I won’t use them. Another thing is they hate wind. A pellet doesn’t like wind but you can deal with it. A Poly is a little worse.

I have a M3 .25. It’s one of my primary squirrel guns. Last year I hunted squirrel using H&N hollow points. It just didn’t do the job that my other .25 did with Polys. So I built a LW barrel for the M3 and focused on making the barrel shoot a Poly and a slug. I did it and I can’t wait for fall. I will start off with Polys and as the season wears on and the pursuit of larger animals at longer distances starts to happen, I’ll switch to slugs.

@JungleShooter, I would post a Poly chipmunk pic but I don’t want to offend any unsuspecting victim in this topic.

His and hers lol . Definitely not everyone's cup of tea. I wouldn't dissagree they are beautiful the way they come but its fun to add your own touch. I've used plasi dip and truck bed liner to give them a ruberized grippy feel .Im curious to see who else has altered the look of there favorite air guns/pisols feel freee to share .

I did confirm with Huma that the gauge will work with the HMX series RAW using the bottom blanking plug hole.

Not when you can use them for everything.

Guys here will drop $2k plus on a nice air rifle… and then complain about the cost of good equipment to eek the most out of it.

I’d WAY rather have a $1000 air rifle, and spend the other $G+ on excellent (read repeatable) optic and the necessary tools to use it.

But hey… that’s just me.

If anybody actually adds up the money poured down the Rabbit Hole® anything else from that point is a rounding error. Sort of like owing a boat, a hole in the water you pour money into.

Fixed! Thank each & everyone of you for your thoughts. This why we come here as a fan base of this GREAT
hobby, to help each other. OK now what did I do to fix this compressor for not releasing pressure after filling
my gun? Well I,m not sure why this worked but it did. My compressor is a single cylinder Tuxing, a year old
& never had any trouble with it. I was about to pull the head, & started thinking it must be a stuck one way
valve. It set over the winter in my shop. I did this, I hunted up that plug they send with them to test pressure.
you know the little brass plug that comes with them that you invert into the air hose disconnect. I started
it up with pressure control knob open & let it warm up. Then I closed the pressure controlled knob as always
& watched the pressure gage till it reached 3000 psi. Crossed my fingers & open the release valve & IT RELEASED
the pressure!. For some reason that valve had stuck open over the winter. I did nothing differant
when I filled the gun, then I did with that plug installed? Maybe someone that knows these compressors better
than me can chime in with there thoughts ?

Fly

If it happens again maybe try light tapping around the one/way valve ,to get it to release before pulling the hose off the gun under pressure ?

Just a PSA, but when ever I've gone PD hunting in the Dakotas, the locals always say don't touch those critters! Earlier this summer, there was a PD town by the Black Hills that had tested positive for the plague. Stay safe out there!

100%

I shoot em and leave em lay. The fat daddy was an exception, and I used gloves.

Their fleas can have Yersinia pestis, aka the plague, aka the black plague. I've read conflicting reports that when their fleas pick up this bacteria the dogs themselves have a massive die off, versus the fleas have it and it doesn't kill the dogs. I'm aware of a couple towns that have completely disappeared, never to recover so I tend to agree with the plague killing dogs when it comes through.

There was a time when prairie dogs were sold in pet stores, due to their very social nature. That trend mostly went away b/c people got sick from living with the dogs. I wanna say salmonella? But don't remember exactly right now.

I don't even like walking through areas where theyve got holes. They defecate and urinate all around their mounds and there is always a bunch of flies buzzing right around the entrances. Flies and cleanliness don't go together.

So, between the damage they do to the ground with their digging, the crop loss from their foraging, the potential diseases they carry, and how fun they are to shoot, well, let's just say i wage war on them starting July 1st when season opens, til mid October when they hibernate.

Looking good

I have a 1300KT from the CCS and its a great little carbine

Too bad they closed down, I was planning on getting a couple of other as gifts. I'm going to try putting a two stage Marauder trigger on it

Likely O-Rings and More would have the needed O-Ring. They normally sell in minimum quantities of 25, but are cheap enough to purchase in that quantity.
Not sure about shipping, but it's normally not much.
You may wanna get a complete O-Ring 'kit' to make the shipping more worthwhile.

They take some getting use to. Hitting on button twice puts you into setup mode allowing recticle change, one shot sight in ect. The list comes up on the left and you use the direction keys to navigate.

Hi guys,

I was wondering if I could get some advice or help.

non sub 12

I changed my Panthera compact liner for a 500mm liner. I bought it as a set with apparently a carbon sleeve included.

cleaned the barrel and all installed properly.
The problem is that the 13g Zan slugs are all over the place.
Started with a 90 reg pressure and the power wheel at 13. Micro adjuster at 3. FPS is 922 and a spread of 6 (21 slugs)

I tried many adjustments and the reg pressure all the way up to 140bar. And a fps over a 1000.
nothing seems to make tight groups.

I have no idea what could cause this problem.

i used zan slugs 13g and also tried with jsb heavy’s
these are dead accurate with the compact barrel.

what am I missing here..

thanks

Where is the S.O.F.T. Match report ?

It looks like he sent them to aafta.org because their site shows the results, but he hasn't posted them here.

Another possibility is the gun [may] be binding in certain positions? Every time you get to a certain bull the gun [may] have the same bind on it? Targets 1, 2, 3 and 10 [may] be the guns neutral position where there is no bind but when moving left or right of neutral there [may] be some bind or extraneous torque in your set up? Try setting the bi-pod's front feet on two individual pieces of slippery plastic and then rest those on another slippery plastic surface to free the feet of stiction. This would allow the gun to somewhat slide and release the bind.

Ah yes, this is the only rifle where I use a bipod - usually I use a low tripod with a panoramic head that swivels - I thought of the pano head specifically to reduce/eliminate stiction. Definitely could be stiction.

Thanks.
