What did you do airgun related today.

Are you porting anything else?
Eventually I will, Once I get all the parts done and I see what it does before opening it up. I already fordered a ported valve that has opened up to 5mm, i ordered a custom 8.8g tungsten hammer. I will be porting the barrel to 4.7 or 5mm as well as the bridge channel but that's it. I also have a low force peek valve that'll allow me to get the same power at a lower reg setting.

On my coworkers notos with the huben valve I ported the barrel to 4.5mm, bridge to 4.7mm, pressure plate to 4.9mm and I got a max of 900fps with 15.89gr at 1500psi on the reg and a 5g hammer. It may get more power with reg set lower, it may not. But i'm hoping it does with the new valve coming in.
 
First, I reamed the FX Impact fill nipple access hole to 19mm so I could use any 8mm female QD.

Big day for me shooting, I shot a 200 with my 177 revere on the 30 yard challenge target.

This evening i tried out a Milwaukee battery china special work light to see how it works. I have to report in that at low power it illuminates the target great. I am using fixed power Sightron scopes.
My plan now is to try and shoot in the evening a few nights a week. It easier when my 2yo son is in bed.

My job role has changed and I have a rotating schedule. I don’t start till 10 oclock three days a week and I get off at 3 two days a week. It’s my Birthday today and I took the week off so IT can make my computer. I have gone to the range every day since last Friday.
Today I shot 62 shots for my 62 years. I hope to make it an annual tradition and add a shot each year. 57 out of 62 on a fresh course . Nothing closer that 25 yards and the wind picked up mid course. Took an hour. My only problem is concentration. The better the gun shoots the more exciting it is to me and I loose focus.

Happy Birthday
 
Retuned* my U2 177 with 18gr take aim slugs to shoot 1002-1014fps.

Last night I took the notos apart and added the 8.8g hammer. Currently getting too much hammer bounce, it quiet literally went from single shot to full auto. Gotta either find a heavy hammer spring or stiffer valve spring.

I 3d printed a new grip with a thumb ledge for my Karma EQ! Best part was that the file was free 😱

It’s awesome. I really wanted a more vertical grip with a thumb ledge (like the saber tactical one, but didn’t want to spend $100. I think that I am gonna stipple it or put some talon grip material on it.

Out at the range today. Forty five shots on the easiest course I can set up. I don’t want people to get frustrated . I went to the course and someone put scratches all over a couple of the 25 yard face plates. And did not hit anything at 35-65 yards.
So I moved all the targets to what I call level one. 15-25-35 yards open kill zones.

Then I cleared the course with 45 shots on fifteen targets.

It was a light rain . I have been able to shoot everyday for a week . Today was rain practice .

Mounted my Sightron 36x on my S200. I ran a chrony and plugged the numbers in Chairgun. I zeroed the rifle at 10m, Chairgun says a 30y zero is .82” low at 10m. So that will get me close.
I hope to shoot a little after my son goes to bed. But the weather isn’t looking promising

It's down pouring in west palm
 
I mounted the temu scope that I didn’t realize I had ordered. 5x24x50. It doesn't seem to be horrible about on par with a centerpoint I hvae on a powder Burner. Even with high mounts I cant use the 20rd magazine that I have.

That magazine is 53 millimeters in height, you're going to need tall height adjustable rings.
 
I did two full 80 shot strings with my S200 with Air Arms 10.3’s and FX 8.4’s
This is a new Huma reg that Trenier had on sale. The 10.3 I did first and it wasn’t the most consistent. Doing the 8.4’s it was a lot more consistent.
I also took a short string with my unregulated Valiant (CZ200), I reduced the HS a month ago. It is doing 675 fps. Oh and I took out an invasive agama with it on my palm tree.
