Halo’s? Alright, maybe.

Nope. Not at the dealers I usually buy from. Where are you sourcing yours?

From ebay, type in Varmint Knockers and you'll see the immediate selection. He also makes different weight sizes you just gotta ask.
Then the next question is, what happens to the accuracy at range?
You end up loosing a smidge of BC, but the accuracy remains mostly the same as long as you don't throw off the balance by removing too much.

Airforce  New Talon SS Classic Bottle question

Update On AF service.
I’ve held off commenting to give AF a more than reasonable chance… I think. AF received my gun 9/19. The email containing my RMA # and return mailing label claimed I was set to priority repair.

It will be seven weeks on Thursday. Called twice at weeks five and six and got a very cordial lady who gave me some info after saying that a tech was out sick and thus part of the reason for delay, but they were testing my gun and weren’t quite satisfied. Same info both times. Promised to call back on both occasions, but that didn’t happen.

Today their phone system said they were not taking calls. I replied to the original ‘RMA’ email…. generated by the same lady I talked to on the phone… and got no response.

I really enjoy my other two AF guns, and I’m waiting for the opportunity to enjoy this one. 🤷‍♂️

Scope problems?

Amazon is going to replace it, I put the one that came with the gun back on and its doing fine. I think what you mention here has something to do with it.
Yeah, I've actually had that happen to me on a scope I bought from someone on here. Wasn't necessarily his fault, I just don't think he ever used it to notice it. It happens sometimes, especially on cheaper scopes. Glad you got it worked out.

Greetings From West of Rainbow

Welcome to the AGN forum @Moke, the best airgun website on the web!!! Sorry I keep repeating it almost every time I post a welcome message:). I'm in CA as well but in the Bay Area, a bit too long drive to your place ;). Great place you have there, I see, congrats! Thank you for posting photos and sharing. Cheers!

Theoben  Theoben seals

Susie was a stay home mother before she started out in her career. Married in 89 and had our first son in 97. Our 3rd son came as a surprise blessing when she was 47! We have catching up to do with our retirement so we can retire comfortably. We made a lot of sacrifice for our family and absolutely no regrets.
If you don't want to raise them don't have them.
Nash is in red in my avatar above. He is 19 now and a mechanical engineering student. We're going to my family farm with a group of his friends tomorrow to swim and fish in the 4 acre pond. Cook out by campfire and run around. Maybe go down to the creek and goof around. Some of the kids will want to shoot an R7 I'm bringing along. They always like that. Probably shoot a Crosman 150. Most kids can hit a soda can or water bottle with it.
Great kids and it's a privilege to hang out with them. They say I don't act like I'm in my 60's. I don't feel like it either.
I enjoy sharing marriage and fatherhood and family tradition with young people as much as anything. If we don't pass along these traditions we won't have gun sports. This is the foundation for what we do. Or there won't be anybody to hand our Theobens off to some day. They won't need any seals anymore

FX  Fx m3 help tune

Since that is a pretty standard weight in 25Cal, I would start at about ~150Bar on your first reg, and about ~110Bar on your second reg. That should get you into the 900s-fps, and then tune up from there. Main idea is to keep your hammer system strikes in range of your reg settings. You want about a 40Bar spread between your regs if you can to help with quicker plenum fills. Most people hit a differential ceiling though when using slugs so that number shrinks down closer to 20Bar. Something to consider is you may not need the extra twist rate of the slug liner with those 26g slugs. Most of the standard STX liners do well with light for caliber slugs.

My FXs in 500mm 25Cal seem to shoot Hades pellets at about 100Bar in the 860fps range, for a point of reference. Your barrel length will really help you, as I get like another 100-200fps in my 700mm 25Cal same reg settings. You shouldnt need to go very high with the light slugs. My 700mm Impact does 1000fps at ~150Bar with Nielsen 34.9g. My hammer weight and spring are a little heavier than stock but not by very much.
Thank you for you replay

Beeman  beeman AR2079B

I was in your same shoes about two months back. I have a Beeman AR2078B. I took it apart to do a B Staley mod on the hammer And a trigger tune. I thought I took it apart so carefully and even took a few photos. When it came time to put the side lever back on I was stuck. For a while at least. With some fiddling and playing around I eventually got it back together.
Keep trying for a while and if you are absolutely stuck then reach back out to me and I’ll pull mine back apart slowly and take some really good photos of the process.

AEA  First pcp air rifle 50 caliber .495

My brother is a fabricator, he has already ordered 2 or 3 different slug molds. I think you are talking about hollow skirt slugs? If not I’ll ask my brother what bootlets are. Scope is exactly what you said. I have read the little book that came with it. I suppose you meant you hoped it would stayed zeroed once I set it. It has a warranty, so I will test it throughly. I have a Burris Fast Fire 4 I will replace it with if it turns out to be junk.

If you meant will it set at a certain distance zero, it does that as well. Locks and unlocks on that setting , easy to adjust for holdover and return to original zero. I just have always bought parallax free scopes , don’t figure I’ll ever need 24x magnification for anything unless I use it to sky watch or something.
The rifle is supposed to be accurate , more so than most big bore air rifles typically are, there are several YouTube videos of people demonstrating it. Even at 50 cal people are getting 930 to 940 fps and that translates to over 400 ft lbs at the muzzle. 50 cent piece sized groups at 75 yards, all holes from slugs touching. It has a threaded barrel to accept a moderator without any adapters. I elected to put a muzzle brake on mine as moderators are outrageous in price and I just think the brake looks cool on it. The Megalodon is AEA’s latest release that’s not a handgun type of airgun. I researched a good while before I bought anything. It seems AEA used lessons learned from previous rifles when designing the Megalodon. My only dislike at this time is the magazines(it comes with 2) are just cheap plastic or polymer, I doubt they hold up in my world. I guess many of the semi auto air rifles will start jamming for several different reasons. I guess they have the pump action working pretty good. All and all, it seems like a well put together rifle, time will tell how well it holds up. It has tanks that will stand up to 4500 psi and shoots unregulated full power. 2 mags or 16 consistent shots if using both tanks, rear tank can be removed and replaced with a folding stock. With the single front tank it gets about 8 consistent shots. The folding stock makes it really compact , especially the 15 inch barrel version. I have the 22 inch barrel. I have slugs on the way the guy at the air rifle shop sent me because I wasn’t suppose to get a 50 cal, I ordered 457 , someone got confused and sent the 50, so when I decided not to return it and get the 457 , the guy sent me 50 dollars worth of slugs from Mr Hollowpoint. I really originally had 357 in mind, but those have not been produced yet, I think they are still I month away or longer.

Discovered an online store for HPA compressor oil.

Thanks to the members that posted the other available products. I was using Chemlube and I usually change the oil when it starts getting dark which normally occurs after about every 2-3 hours run time. The Chemlube was getting hard to find and it was $29 shipped per quart if Amazon had it. I stumbled onto the Recip-XL for $102 per gallon shipped which should last me a while and was $4 less per quart. The Nuvair price is still a few dollars more at $109 per gallon shipped to my house.
