I wanted to know from those shooting heavy. 25 slugs what is the twist used .I want to have a tj made for my AF.. that all could benefit since I have to had the tooling made.. I also since I'm already having tooling made I want to make one in .177
So for .25 is 1-15.5 .. or 1-16 ..?
For .177 .. should we try 1-8 or 1-9 .. 1-9 is the twist used to shoot 26gr cast slugs in .172 .. I really don't see my self buying many more guns but .. I could have plenty of different barrels to play with my AF guns.

To add to this, my vulcan 3 has a 1:17.7 twist 700mm barrel in .25 and shoot 36gr slugs and up really well. Like up to 46gr H&N cause I haven't tested heavier slugs

Isn’t the saying “ first class problems “

Curious to hear about your most accurate big bore setup. How tight are the groups and what efforts, adjustments, and testing were required to get there? Any tips or tricks for improving accuracy? Any tips for what NOT to do?

The only things I have physically done,1 polished the barrel and 2, take some off the lead to the trigger and polished it so there is no creep. No 2 barrels are the same so you have to slug the barrel,

1. How to Slug a Barrel:
   • Choose a soft, lead slug slightly larger than the bore diameter.
   • Lubricate the slug (e.g., with oil or bore paste).
   • Insert it into the chamber and gently tap it through the barrel using a cleaning rod.
   • Observe the impressions left on the slug.

Remember, slugging provides valuable insights into your barrel’s rifling, ensuring optimal performance and accuracy. Need a chronograph, once i get 3 shots on paper(providing you have zeroed) at 100 yards, I just keep Lessing the psi until the group starts to tightens up, having an external regulator with a gauge so you know what pressure you have as you lesson the psi for the slug. 98% of the time i shoot and hunt tethered. Last but not least, breathing pattern. That day when i had 3 shots in one hole, there was no wind and i have not able to repeat it,lol,, I'm happy with 3 slugs in a 2-inch group at 100 yard for a hunting pcp big bore.

While the movement side to side is great for matching the slant of the cheek piece, I found that the wood clamp has a bit too much play up and down. Now with top of the clamp brace it drastically reduces that making it much more effective.

That would make sense, keep the solid Taipan ( I think they should have stayed with the original full stop )

Then come out with a separate line with different name and features but the same build quality.

I agree they should have kept the original as an option still.

Interesting to know they are behind the Epic Airguns also. Don't think it's quite living up to hype yet, definitely having issues compared to the Taipan line which is basically nonexistent

a Diana model 6 and a Tempest, 2 pistol on the opposite end of the felt recoil spectrum
and yes the Indian or Diana B9N or B9S has bad sights and the trigger is so-so at best and the loading is a pain and it is too bad it is a very nice pistol
i have tried to figure out how to replace the rear sight for years, i even bought an SeeAll sight to mount on the barrel but that did not work out or i gave up
that Diana or see it a Beeman 6GS is a bit of a rare pistol if it so marked

Click to expand...

Yes sir they are complete opposite. I find the tempest more enjoyable to shoot than an HW45 though. Then again this tempest had 50 years to break in where as the hw45 I shot was fairly new and not tuned.
I didn’t find the Indian hard to load. The cocking is ridiculously easy for the power it puts out.
What do you mean by “if it is so marked”? Is there some special markings to look for?

I have a like new accu tac bipod that I'm not using. It's like new. It's for the arca rail . Asking 275 shipped TYD.

Mine does well with the Crosman's, the domes then the the hps.

Carlos, you are stuttering again.

You really don't need a temperature gauge, There is an internal sensor attached to the head of the compressor that goes to the control board, if the temp gets above the set amount, it will shut down the compressor to prevent damage. I have a temp gauge on mine and fill 480cc tank regularly, the temp has never gotten over body temp, 98.6F! The only time it went over that was when the cooling tank got clogged and no water was flowing, even then it only got to about 106F. The only reason I have the gauge is because I'm anal!

What temp gauge setup do u have?

I need one lol

My hatsans had a sharp edge around the leade. I felt it scared pellet heads loading so I tapered them for easier less damaging pellet loading . I feel it made a difference ..

Polished taper


Job well done

How about this Seb Joypod .. Just kidding..Saw a F-class shooter at the range with one of these. Very cool pod that has a joystick control for elevation and windage. Just move the joystick and it stays in place. i think they are around 1k
..he also had a Schmidt and Bender 10-60 x56 scope on his rig. His scope cost more than my last 2 rifles combined.

Hello have a m3 with a few upgrades im not using and i wanna add some cool stuff to Panthera. I would be willing to trade fro the right thing as in another panther a or a crown with a saber chassis that’s about it. 1600 plus shipping and fees. PayPal goods and services only. I have a lot of good feedback on facebook and can even video chat or what ever you would like for verification. Pm me with any questions. Gun case and a few things of ammo will be included. No scope can be included for a little extra. Has saber tactical bag rider. Bottom rail and non glused carbon liner sleeve. This gun has very minimal used and has always been stored in the case not a single scratch. Firm on price as its not a must sell item.

I just received a reply from Accu Tac regarding this question. Yes, they redesigned the bipods and relocated pan lever lock to the front. They said that some (most?) online stores have not yet updated their photos on their websites.

Greetings AGN!

I have two hand made .22 caliber FX barrel adapters for the Taipan Veteran. I made these 2-3 years back and kept them in my personal stash. Both are made from very high quality marine brass, which I found DOES make a difference harmonically. Definitely not making any more after this, so once this ad is marked sold - please don't bother asking!

The designs are slightly different - one is low profile and the other one is stouter with a PEEK / polymer collar that faces the sleeve side. There's no difference in the overall performance with either adapter - I spent a painstaking amount of time nailing down the optimal tolerances and they both work flawlessly! I found that my FX liners performed consistently better in the Taipans than the FX rifles that I shot them with.


Terms:
* $125 shipped for the polymer collared adapter
* $110 shipped for the standard adapter
* BOTH adapters will come with a precision Delrin wrap that goes around the FX barrel sleeve to make up the +1mm in the Taipan barrel support (has the side benefit of reducing harmonics)
* Payment: Zelle preferred or discrete PayPal with 3% fees
* No trades

Seems the Vixen is in need of o-rings for the regulator and I can't find the detailed parts diagrams anywhere on the net. Does anyone know if AGT lists this anywhere since they don't bother replying to emails? EDIT: Never mind. I see Tony has them included in the Vixen repair kit. Good to know they are available.

Hi Manabeknives,

Thank you for the quick response. I currently have a DFL SUMO and am getting upwards of 90dB at 120 bar. It sounds like the Altaros might be a better match for the P3. I’ll look into this combo and provide feedback. Thanks!

Many FedEx and UPS locations are franchises. The franchisees can make up their own rules and many refuse to ship guns or anything resembling guns. This is the reason people mask the contents.

I used FedEx for many many years shipping air guns and PB's. Now I use pirate ship. The key is to print your own shipping label, including full insurance and drop it off and make sure you get a receipt for the drop off. No questions asked. USPS sucks for tracking and quit using them many years ago for this reason

Click to expand...

I suppose that some UPS franchise store owners might "make up" some rules, but they are subject to the restrictions of their franchise agreement, and that is the source of most of their rules. The UPS agreement specifically lists air guns as a restricted item, and they have to go through a company location.

Great shot, nice pic! Yup.....the asparagus wins!

I got this Hawke scope. IR/AO. 6-24x50. Selling cheap because I don’t need it; already have a 6-24. $215 shipped with FX dovetail no limit rings. PayPal or Zelle.
