Yeah you are. I just checked your website. You gots LOTS of cool new stuffs.
I'm Steve, (I had an order # 8518)

I'm very happy with the Harpoon with the Texoma slug holders.
I 've been watching for a full magnum conversion kit.(I know you have the components individually)

Maybe some 11" magnum 12 ga barrels with 4 cartridges and 12 ga slug holders.
& some misc sabot shots & fun stuffs. arrows...

When are you going to make cartridges?

I've got 7" 72 caliber magnum barrels on the way, a new type of barrel that I think people will love, and finally, I am beginning to work on stainless steel air cartridges to hold a bit more pressure.

This month's field target course had many lanes that were shot from the ravine with several shots being uphill shots. There wasn't much wind in the morning and only later in the day the wind would pick up for a few minutes then lull, certainly less wind than we usually experience.

The AAFTA three course average difficulty was 28.9 (Moderate) and the individual course section had the following average difficulties (not including environmental factors):

• Blue - 29.7 (moderate)
• Green - 27.7 (moderate)
• Red - 29.4 (moderate)

Scores - Each course is a possible 20, and the 3 course total is of a possible 60. Ties are not broken.


Only two silhouette shooters for score this month, both shot standing for score.

Have not tried them at 100. BTW just sold the Uragan last night

Update, they worked great… outperformed my mkI’s out to 60 yards by a large margin. Somehow the mkI’s are pellet on pellet out to 40y but scatter to 1+ inch at 60… looks like I was not at my best today as the slugs that performed half inch at 60 last week spread to an inch today

If I remember correctly the MKII's have the deeper skirt. I think that helps with the long range stability somehow. My .25 loves em. Glad they worked!

I think here in USA AGM is selling a LRF 4k scope, pretty similiar.. DNT Zulus are cheaper but HD...There are soo many options in digital night vision right now..Its hard to keep up

The translucent beads turn green when they are wet, so you are doing good. You can reuse the beads by putting them in the oven and drying them out. I run mine about once a week in climate controlled environment and rarely need to dry them out.

Don’t forget, there are screws or bolts that hold the rings to the base/receiver and screws that clamp the rings together, and they have different torque values and vary by ring manufacturer. The ring top screws might be 20 inch-pounds, but the bases could be in the 30-40 range depending on model and manufacturer

Prices have really come down. I got one last Black Friday for about $300. They have cheaper ones but I wanted more dependable. Works great.

Hard to believe the Gen two has German glass for the price they are asking for…

While not a pcp, I believe that the Diana trailscout would work for only shooting ~200 shots a year.

Diana Trailscout CO2 Air Rifle | Pyramyd AIR

We've got a great price on the Diana Trailscout CO2 Air Rifle. Get a great price and expert advice at Pyramyd for your next outdoor adventure!

www.pyramydair.com

Its a co2 rifle and very light. It takes 3 co2 cartridges, but you can use 1,2, or 3 by replacing empty ones in place of the new ones. This way you can shoot off some shots and not waste 3 co2's at once. No pump required.

Click to expand...

I have one of these and while it is accurate and gets a lot of shots on those three CO2 cartridges (I get 30 per loaded cartridge in .22), it leaks down gas overnight or within a week. The design is that the whole CO2 cartridge tube fills with gas and that o-ring on the tube cap at the end just won't hold it all in for long. So it's a great hunter and plinker for when _you_ want to shoot but not good for a sudden "honey, there is a rabbit in the garden". By the time it's gassed and ready the rabbit is gone. The Chaser series is by the same manufacturer but skeletally light, doesn't leak gas (one cartridge sealed at the tip of the cartridge), and in long-barrel rifle configuration in .22 it would have enough oomph for a rabbit.

+1 on the Airforce.

Late as well, but managed to pick up a 2240 back when Amazon marked them down to $45. It was shipped in a cardboard box, rather than a plastic clam shell. A box is so much nicer than those plastic clam shells.

I made my own SSG and installed it. You get a decent amount of shots per cartridge, due to not burping out gas after the projectile has left the barrel. Need to get a steel breech for it, or something like that. The front sight is crooked, seems they installed the barrel off kilter. (Flat in the barrel was not installed level.). Not a big deal, but kind of annoying. Machined a moderator adapter to tone it down slightly, it's quite civil now.

Well, I pulled out my trusty 177 500mm Crown barrel and within a couple of minutes, I was shooting one hole groups at 35 yards. So it looks like the 380mm needs some break-in or a look-see at the leade.

I just recently purchased a similar kit 2 weeks ago from utah myself and it will take a lil deeper dive to figure out lol . Mine was marked the 1 and 17 variant .

It is a coin flip in my honest opinion nowadays . haha

I am guessing the factory setting ,

ADAPT ... as no successful shooter has realized repetitive success without having this crucial skill.

I'm wondering if the velox tube is strong enough to put the gauge on the end of tub?
I posted under air pistol but not sure where it goes.. hopefully moderator will correct it and delete the place it doesn't belong.
Mark

does anyone have a idea of the air tube on the velox is thick enough and strong enough to thread and put a gauge on the end?
I'm also going to post this under PCP because I don't know where it goes.. so moderator I am sorry, just delete or move as needed.

Interesting Radar , Very large storm area moving up from Florida towards Iowa , odd for that direction . the rainy weather is from a SSE movement and that means My bench is subject to wind and rain in a 11 o'clock to 5 o'clock or in my face and off to my left as i am facing south at my shooting stand also from my left foot to my right shoulder uphill..
Makes light pellet shooting interesting . a few minutes ago i could not see across the lake and now the sun is shining but still rain farther across the lake (soon to be here )

As many others have said, scopes on pistols defeat the value of a pistol. They are only usable if shooting at a fixed target at a known distance. They offer a narrow field of view, sit way too high above the barrel and take far too long to acquire a target sight picture. I understand the reasoning behind their use, the end user should be using a rifle if they cannot shoot a pistol.

Click to expand...

Well I had to live with it and eliminate some pests with it but have come to the conclusion that the pistol scope does just what I had wanted it for. Offhand. Moving animals or standing targets. Magnification self contained.
I use red dots with 2 moa on two other guns and will continue. But the Huben with a quick follow up I will keep a long eye relief pistol scope or perhaps a scout scope since I’m resting elbow on chest for about 11 inches of clearance.
The UTG is barely adequate and I don’t see how a $350 Burris can be much better optically. If I want to rest on something the scope is also much better for pinpoint accuracy over 20 yards.
I also have no desire for a add on stock, plenty of rifles.

Hi Mike,

The purpose of the fill port at the back of the Prophet V1 was to support tethered shooting.

Despite its small length, the Prophet Performance V1 was designed to compete in 100 yard benchrest - the .22 LR barrel designed to keep MRDs stable at velocities even exceeding 1,000 fps.

To shoot tethered to the rear port requires removing the carbon fibre bottle. Also, since the rear port bypasses the regulator, you would want an inline regulator to support tethered shooting.

Because of these additional requirements, I never tried using the rear port for tethering. If the bottle could have remained attached, I’d have definitely tried it.

I’ll add some general stuff since we’re talking about the rear tether port. Guns that have it like my Priest l and Priest ll did also required a poppet valve in the transfer tube. But under normal use, that valve may have been causing inconsistencies so a lot of guns were shipped without them. So when a guy decided he was going to try the tether life, he would blow all the air from his tether bottle out the front of the gun. Our Priest l guns were known as squealers. They blamed the reg but that transfer tube valve IMO wasn’t helping.

I skipped the P1 and went to the P2. If you have your P1 apart some day and it has that valve in the transfer tube, eliminate it. I think originally we drilled a little hole in them and kept them in place. I wish I could be more specific but that was so many guns ago and probably seven years.

Hi All,

I'm new here but been a long time reader. I'm wondering what's the diference between V3+ and V3-R? Also, is it worth to go for the regulated version?

Thanks
