Welcome. 25Cal is a nice hunting choice. Expect 1-2moa accuracy with slugs in most pcps even the high end ones. There are some that do better but its kinda rare and usually a lot of work. If accuracy is what you are after for hunting power levels there is a short list of proven setups many of us here like to use.

It’s so confident in itself now that it bravely parked in the executive parking lot. Well, the black aluminum parking lot. The guns with nice wood get to park in the garage.

Ok now you are just showing off ! Parking lot looks very competent.
Once again kudos on your non wood units.

I like foxes, but that murderous thief was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Love how close it looked in the video… Good shooting on that thieving bastage…

As your rifle ages, the O rings in the regulators get old and brittle. They will fail especially when you start making significant adjustments. I had two fail on me; an Impact Mk2 and a Crown Mk2. Both more than 6 years old. You have a choice of replacing them with Huma regulators or the cheaper route, replace all the O rings in the factory regulators. I chose the latter.

.0022 caliber, super lightweight

looks russian like a legoshy

I finished the rest of that 50 yard target yesterday so I finally measured my lucky group. I'll call this half inch (MOA) ctc

Here's the rest of the target which are far more indicative of my 50 yard springer groups with a light breeze. Bottom

This why I don't believe in posting just cherry picked groups. There's a big difference between shooting a half inch group and saying it shoots half inch groups.


Happy 4th everyone.

Lefties have been covered threw the years by many top level manufacturers, there just rare as hell as they find homes and seldom leave them.

If it's the house/family I suspect there are 3 boys that range in age from 12 to 19. There's a service road that runs along the back of the yards. The 12 year old walks around quite a bit. They're new to the neighborhood... no harm, no foul I was doing the same thing when I was his age. I'm figuring it was a 20 yard shot from their bathroom window... not bad.

you should approach and say, “i found your bird. you like pellet guns? i do too, i bet i can shoot targets farther than you.” introduce him to pcp airguns and watch him tumble into the rabbit hole. who knows, he might do something great for the community.

Without a pressure gauge on plenum or a test fixture ... your only guessing anyways ?
Maxing out the regs adjustment range is really hard on the sealing disk and o-rings in general. While doable the real limiting issue is the bevel washer stack not being stiff enough and flexing too much to create that high a set point.
I would measure the washers thickness & shop for some slightly heavier bevel washers for what your trying to do.

Thank you max, handling them first is great advice. Maybe I’ll see which one is love at first sight

Click to expand...

My guess will be the TX200. Get it in .177. Then again, the HW97k is all business.... gah! The ultimate springer conundrum!

Find a club in your area to solve your dillema!

I've noticed depending on the weather the air guns I have will fluctuate what it displays on the air gauges from day to day even though I haven't used them
I was wondering if anybody else has experienced similar things with the air guns
Sometimes I will leave them in the truck but I was wondering people's thoughts on this specifically pertaining to notices in PSI based on the weather
The fluctuations I've seen have been minor but I've noticed them

Day to day or hour to hour if the temperature changes enough. Just the other day I had my regulator pressure drop on me just bringing my rifle outside on an abnormally hot day. It was 87⁰ outside at 830 am in the shade and I store my guns in my basement at 67⁰. The first thing that happened was my scope glass fogged up when i opened my gun case. I then shot five decent 5 shot groups. Then started to notice poi changing on group # 6-8. I looked and the regulator psi had dropped by 10+ bar. I turned it back to where it was supposed to be and got back on track for a while. Next time out shooting I'm going to acclimate the rifle ahead of time, but it will still need adjustments depending on temperature fluctuations

I've been looking for one as well. It's not too difficult to single load the RP as is, but a flip-out style loader of the CARM style would be nice. I have one for my RAW and it works very well.

I have two CARM single shot loaders also - for my two RAW rifles. Great, simple products! I'm manually loading single pellets in the RP now but wish for a CARM SSL for the RP!

Hi look at thread “DIY Daystate GCU v5 (Red Wolf) programmer„ i made one up myself and just downloaded my high/medium/low settings for my sub-12 pulsar

Click to expand...

Damn, that is awesome! Save over $400 bucks lol. Daystate makes quite the profit on them. Let me know how it works. Not quite understanding, I assume you input everything on the computer since there isn't a keypad. Let me know your experience with it when you tune your pulsar...thanks

This is the modification I made to the benchrest lane . I moved the targets to the left side and angled the targets to face the bench. Before I had them in a line. All the targets are measured from the bench.

No worries, hope it works great for you. If ya think of any improvements lemme know.

Did you try Crosman Premier Hollow Points? (CPHP)

I just tried them and it looks like they were impacting the paper sideways. Grouped 1” @25yds

does anyone know if you can use the PCP cylinder that pyramid air sells that has the adapter to screw into a 88 gram CO2 port?
Mark

Click to expand...

Pretty sure you can. I’ve seen a few different HPA mods. One dude went the co2 adapter with big bottle and said he stopped counting at like 250 shots a fill.

Yea, I get that. I'd like to be able to re-tune for different weight pellets when I want. JSB 18.13 are less expensive than FX Hybid slugs, but sometimes you need a slug over a diabolo pellet.

Any owners out there that can offer their personal experience on feeding this guy?

Sorry , I misunderstood you and measured the outer diameter of the air reservoir / shroud................my bad..............

No problem, I understood.

Back_Roads said:

2nd variant, I see a rounded tang and grove, either way very nice

Click to expand...

Still considered a first variant. Not an 1st “A“ (square tongue on the receiver but a 1st “B“ (round tongue on the stock ). This is how the collectors differentiate the two. Crosman categorizes them both as just a 1st variant.

Ha! I could not get $1350 SHIPPED for my untouched Bronze M3 with an extra mag. They don't want to pay for new, they don't want to pay a fair price for used. Good. Don't buy anything. None of my 11 guns are going anywhere. They all shoot beautifully accurately and don't leak a bit of air. Buy chi-junk and start a forum to discuss them.

In today's market, the Impact 2 is a $1,000 shipped, and the M3 is a $1,200 gun shipped.

Click to expand...

I’m shopping for my 10 year old; we got this cattle ranch permission PLAGUED with ground squirrels and pigeons. We run a EVOL 30 but I need his help with his own rig! If you still got that M3 in about 3-4 months I’m buying it haha

I would research what has worked in the ghost, alpha/delta wolf. I doubt these barrels are much different. Depending what caliber the staples within that caliber are always a great place to start. 22 caliber : 18.1 & 25.39 jsb. 25 caliber : 25.39 & 33.95 jsb. .30 44.75 -& 50.1. Those pellets are so commonly used a lot of manufactures design their barrels around those. I would start to cull at 50 yards and not waste my time with 25.

oh i understand, you get an idea and see where it takes you and that is a rabbit hole
there has been many a time that i have an idea but not the tools, as in lathe and mill

And thank you, Sir, for the targets and everything else you do for TEXtreme, field target, airgunning, and this forum.
