All except that damn internal O ring in the regulator . . . . . a nightmare!
Yep, this is why I own many of the same model, just in different calibers.Caliber changes are “overrated“ particularly for small, low power platforms like the Atomic/Ranger XRs. They are simply solid for their intended roles, proven through field use by many. Just buy a second gun as switching calibers, in “theory” sounds great. In “practice“?![]()
I see small accuracy differences when I’m shooting my benchrest pcp. It would take a really accurate springer to see that difference. I guess I’m saying that a slightly dirty barrel is not easy to see in a springer.From what I've found on this forum and other resources, a spring-piston break barrel doesn't require much cleaning at all. clean every ~1000 shots or so, cleaning rod with a soft cloth patch, Dip the cloth patch in a small amount of airgun barrel cleaning solution or a mild solvent, and push it through the barrel several times to remove any debris or fouling (what fouling haha?), Repeat the process with a dry cloth patch to remove any remaining solvent or debris.
That seems pretty reasonable to me, am I missing anything or is there anything else that is best practice?
I have a Kopfjaeger tripod. I use it for standing shots occasionally but mostly for sitting shots. Very stable.I'd agree with that. I also put expensive optics on budget guns. So I just realized I'm being contradictory. Do you use any standing aim assists?
I got the .22. I didn't do a crazy amount of research on it though so it wasn't a self-informed decision. I trusted some of the more veteran air gunners on the sub. Additionally, I liked the idea of having more projectile drop over distance (unsure of how true that is as I don't have anything to compare it to). I also liked having a larger caliber in case I ever needed to hunt with it.Thank you a lot. I was just looking at this rifle, I’m contemplating buying it. Well done. What cal did you get?
