Where theres a need is there a product ?

This thread was an inspiration for me to take the old 760 out and see how hard it shoots with three BBs. 340-fps at five-pumps and 218 at three.

What was interesting is that it shoots a tighter group 'shotgun style' than it does when you shoot the BBs individually. What the heck? It still works on bumble bees!

Problems with brand new gx cs2

Thanks again everyone, I did try on a 20 amp circuit and no luck. I bought the unit directly from GX and have been trying the support email address. I guess I will just wait it out a bit and hope they get back to me before my 30 day return window closes!
On the bright side, it looks to be a beautiful day here in SW WI!

The Diana SkyHawk Gen 2 is in stock at Pyramyd AIR!

The P35 barrel is 450mm long and the Skyhawk Gen 2 looks like it's the same. The bullshark's barrel is 490mm long.

I agree the price increase is not insignificant, I wonder if the tarriff situation affected the price. I do kind of like having a gauge on the plenum, it lets me go back to where I was better, but I would not pay this much for one. I prefer wood stocks but that one is stained beech so it is relatively heavy and not overly pretty - not like a nice walnut stock to my eye. It also would not fit me. So that isn't really a plus in my case. I'll stick with my P35s but I think this is an interesting minor step forward.

32 fpe is right where my P35 is with 21 grain H&N Baracudas. I'm not sure you could push a 15.89 fast enough to get to 32 fpe. My P35-25 likes JSBs but my 22 and 177 do not. But if you want to get 900+ fps from a 22 caliber P35 you'd need to use something like a 15.89 or a 14.66 grain. I don't think I've ever shot pellets this light in it. It doesn't care for 18 grain but will push those pretty fast so I didn't try lighter ones. My P35-177 will push 10 grain pellets over 900 fps. I usually use 10.65 grain Baracudas in it at about 880 fps but it will push those over 900 fps too. I've never tried tuning it for 8 grain.

Snowpeak  PP700: Fill Port Valve Keeps Springing Leaks: Got a Solution? 🤔

I experienced a similar issue. In my case, the issue was caused by the black anodizing on the seat flaked off leaving a sharp edge. That sharp edge would cause the new O ring to rapidly fail. My solution was to reface the O ring seat with a countersink then replace the O ring with a slightly larger one. I think it is important to understand how this seal functions. It is the differential pressure difference between the tank pressure and the ambient atmospheric pressure outside that forces the O ring into the space between the angular face of the pocket and the angular face of the screw forcing the O ring to seal.

Different CO2 cartridges?

^ Thanks! I was wondering about that.

I have Umarex, Daisy and Crosman cartridges that I use in a Crosman CO2 pellet revolver.

The Crosman carts seem to last the longest but also seem to give the best velocity. I noticed it even without a chronograph.

The Daisy are "OK" and the Umarex are really garbage in comparison.

I would have expected the differences to be even greater than the chart indicates.

Hatsan  Have anyone chrony the hatsan Velox in .177?

In my country you can buy the Velox in .177, but Hatsan rate it inexplicably low power compared to the .22. Maybe the system gets pretty ineficient in .177, but I would like to see a chrony test somewhere.

that looks like a chart I remember seeing from hatsan on the velox before it was released.. and if I remember correctly the numbers all look as I remember
I've got the 22 caliber second batch from pyramid air..
I have never seen the 177 caliber listed anywhere for sale.

Umarex  Ruger Blackhawk .177 break barrel

Are you shooting with the artillery hold? May have missed it in the previous posts. Plenty of YouTube videos on it. Made a difference with a cheap springer my brother had. Takes a lot of practice and you have to be consistent with your hold on the rifle.
No, I do not, and please don't laugh. I made a bag rest out of an old shaving bag filled with sand, which i place on my BBQ grill lid, when not in use lol. Then while sitting on a stool I relax aim and take my shot. Just getting into shooting after retirement. Not too steady when trying to just hold the rifle will have to practice more, I'd say. Thanks for that advice. Watched the you tube and I kind of do that just may be holding too tightly

Airbug or Chaser ?

you take the wood grips off and the barrel and front sight and you have a Chase
the Airbug would have a different tube end piece so the grip screw has something to screw into
the Airbug has the CP1 barrels setup and grip
the Chaser would be a CP2 in the UK
the grip of the chaser is fine and so are the sights and of course the grip take the shoulder stock if you could get a rifle barrel
now the wood grips they have change over time but some think they are uncomfortable
and the Bug has a mag
