Looking for just the liner. I could use a 700 mm and cut that down if need be.
Thanks Springfield. Comments like that keep me going!Subscribed a while back.
Your putting out some great videos!
Keep them coming, and thank you for the content!
Wow! that's some good shootingUpdate: Decided to go the vintage route. Bought a 1984 recently resealed Daisy 880 on EBAY. Cost was $100 plus $25 shipping. Had metal side receiver plates and metal pump handle. I thought it was a fair value since new cheaper made 880s are $60, However, there are a lot of used 880s on EBAY. Put on a dovetail to Picanny offset adapter and a Bugbuster 3x12. Pretty accurate. I only tried one type of pellet (RWS match) and only did a 3 shot group at 20 yards. Chonographed velocityy with 7.4 gr Crossman Destroyer pellets at 651 fps. One thing is the Crossman Premier 10.5 gr dome pellets will not fit in the breach. Even with the raised scope mount, takes patience to load even using a tweezer and a flashlight. Maybe the worse of all my pumpers. Thanks for all the replies.

He needs to tighten the mount up seriously.Yes, the action (barrel, scope, mount, etc) should move this is called a sledge system. It also looks like unless you did it purposely that your mount is partially off the scope rail already. The 54 is notorious for ruining scopes due to the recoil.
I live in Ga., and I've taken giant armadillos with my .177 Uragan compact, shooting 10gr Zan slugs with a body shot. Placement is key, and yes, the .22lr may have more energy, but might also pass clean through.The 8 lb raccoon was walking across my backyard one day. I posted here or on GTA and got the suggestion it was probably a young male that got "kicked out of the nest". I thought it was likely rabid or wouldn't have been wandering around during the day. I weighed it on my fish scale so the weight is approximate, not sure how accurate it is.
For an adult raccoon my opinion is that a 25 caliber airgun shooting non-expanding projectiles are the least I would try for body shots. I shot the little 8 lb one with my 22 in the body first and it stopped him from running, he sat down and started hissing. So he got one between the eyes. He might have expired from the body shot but it would have taken awhile. Not a clean kill like I think any animal deserves. I am confident one of my 40+ fpe 25s would have worked fine on the little one for a body shot but on a medium to big one... I am confident enough to try it but I'd rather shoot it in the head. I'm sure that would work.
I used to get to go raccoon hunting with an uncle sometimes as a kid. I've seen them hit by a 22lr and come out of the tree with significant life left in them. The dogs liked those ones. I'm not sure how much the bigger diameter of a 25 caliber projectile makes up for having about half the energy of the 22lr. I am confident a 25 caliber pellet with 45fpe or so will penetrate to the vitals with reasonable placement. A 30 caliber ups the hole size again and it's hard to see why it wouldn't work well. Biggest unknown is how far they would travel after a body shot. They are going to die but DRT chances would seem likely to go up with bigger calibers. I think I see a difference on squirrels between 18 fpe and 32 fpe. Same thing is probably too for raccoons. 32 will kill at least small ones but >50 will probably do it quicker on body shots. 32 should be limited to head shots on raccoons and probably smaller ones too.
Here you go shipmate! This is where I get my BSA stuff.Looking for seal kit...
It doesn’t make our game commission enough moneyGee , wouldn't it be nice if we here in PA could use this for small & medium game ? Maybe some day our PA Game Com. will be enlightened. The reason I've stayed w/ .22 caliber, too $$$ ( for me ) to pop sparrows & such but man would that .30 wack the G-hogs !
I used a 1 inch forstner bit to drill out the stock so I can see the manometer better. Yes, I painted my stock.I talked to a guy who put a €1400 chassi on the M24. The chassi was for a 700 Remington but did not fit standard, there had to be the removal of material so that you could access the airgun components under the rifle. In the picture below you can see what I'm talking about. There are 2 manometers there and the fill probe. You need to cut out that square if you want to see the parts as designed or I guess 3 holes and some extenders could work but that would mean the manometers would stick out on the bottom so not ideal either.
