What are y'all doing this weekend thats Airgun related?

Jump to latest Follow Reply
Im going to pick up my project benjamin discovery I bought on agn and set it up for 177 and put a scope on it, maybe chrono and see if i want to regulate it. Start designing a power adjuster to machine and knurl for it.

Start refurbishing a 1974/75 crosman powermaster 760 for a friend and machine a rear site elevation ramp for it.

I hope you get your buddy hooked. My circle calls it "scumbagging" . It's how I got them all into pcp rifles with my fx impact.

Have fun!

Saw the weather report for a couple of days ago for the San Antonio area, predicted 103, I'm a couple of hundred miles NE of Austin and we only hit 92 yesterday, plenty hot and humid. I mowed the yard, about 1 3/4 acres this morning and was beginning to sweat even with a nice breeze and temp in mid 80's This afternoon I have been sealing and finishing the wood on a couple of old Freeland palm rests along with a couple of others I have partially made myself.

Been shooting THU and not FRI even if that was the plan, CUZ the weather was even worse.
Mind you i am looking to get out of the door as soon as i can CUZ i have a new chrono i picked up today to try and it is a bit on the loud side in the living room.

So my money is on MON and TUE, though the latter will probably end up being annoying windy like today was, so a trip to lumber yard to get materials for shed project and pellet traps will probably happen instead of shooting.

I can still shoot 30 M as the stable somewhat shield that distance if the wind are in that most popular direction,,,, and it will be.

Eager to see that spring get under way properly, sun is out here and record drought, but not enjoyable wind levels.

tomorrow SAT i think i will clean my barrel, and lube up the Two so it is 100 % fit for fight.

I was supposed to take part in a .22 rimfire silhouette match with my FX Crown. They invited me to join them since there are no local air rifle matches in our area. BUT, it got cancelled for lack of participation. They are going to just do a fun shoot instead so I’ll probably still go to that.

Trying to decide whether or not to rewrite my thread from a year ago about the Atlas CAL belleville and Smoothdrag washer mod. Maybe even buy five sets of washers to give away here on the forum to those who would be willing to do the mod and tell us what they think.

OR

I could load up my truck and head to my friend's cabin and get away from all the noise here in town and shoot ground squirrels and plink with my Maverick .30 sniper and NSA 54.5's.

I'm still thinkin'.

See if i can add more volume to a 300CC plenum set up. Trying to get enough volume a friend can regulate a .510 Texan.
Need 350-450CC minimum
.510 barrel volume is 114 CC
(3 x 114) = 342cc
4 is probably better

I figured it out. Added a U adapter and 20CM long 125CC tube.
The 40CM 250 CC tube runs along the body of the gun with the top hat in the middle. Extension, U adapter and joints add about 50CC.

Now i just have to drive 500 miles to test it...

Regulated big bore needs a big bottle, so 1.1L

I'd been looking for as stock with the reverse bottle for a friend who had an airforce... I just don't want to make most of the parts for him. Your pics help a ton.

Huben Power has regulated and unregulated U.

But the unregulated needs a male on the upper fitting. I don't know about the regulated.

You need a tube too. AliExpress has Shan Bao 20CM tubes.
I unscrew a Cricket reg and the M28x1 screws right in the tube. Tube has M28-M18 adapters.
