Eaglebeak thanks. 

Yes that is the high pressure relief valve. But I'm talking the bleed down valve on the other side. Not sure if it should be open or closed when running. 

Got a Young Heng compressor. What is the bleed down valve and what is the proccedure for using it. Thanks.

2.5 bar per shot seems really high. My .25 is using 1.9 bar per shot. 

Thankx. Bill

Looking at Royal purple Synfilm 100. Is that it?

One of my rifles scope is mil\moa. That bullet card is in inches rather than mils. Work as well as my mil\mil card that are in mils. The mil\moa card gives mils hold over til 160yd then is in inches as I run out of reticle beyond that range and need to use the turret. .

Know your trajectory. Develope a bullet card measuring drop in mildots useing scope on true mil dot power. Range find distance to target. Bullet card will tell number of mil dots hold ovet on true mil dot power. Use half true mil dot power to double value of mils. Second focal plane only...

Hey tflats, Think I missunderstood your 1st response. I took it as you recomending fills up to 300 bar. In referencing Ed and Brian in you 2nd response I see thats not what you meant Ofcourse the guns air cylinder is probably safe to 5,000 psi but 240 to 250 bar is recommended. So ya, no debate...

Bbstacker, thanks for the info. And yes, Banjo is a great dog. Got my first GSP in 1958, ( I was 12). She is the Queen of the house for sure. Bit of a bed hog sometimes but I don't mind. She cut her teeth on mountian grouse and picked up field work and grey squirrel like she was born to it. She...

Likkiti, thanks for chimming in. Your story is inspirational. You are indestuctable, you healed and survived. A tip of the cap to you and thank you. Bill

Tflats, I don't have enough experience to debate the r5m fill pressure but no, I didn't misunderstand Brian.

Drocean, if you decide on the Impact check out Utah Airguns. They offer a high capacity mag. Plus they are really good people. After multiple contacts with just about all the airgun dealers I felt Edgun West and Utah Airguns were 1& 2 in terms of knowlege and professionalism. Of the guns...

Chohan, I am a rimfire guy with bad ears too. I have a Silencerco can on my .22 and as you said, the low report of these pcp guns is wounderful. I'll put up more info on the Edgun after so 50yd shooting. So here's Banjo. She's 10 but eyes, ears and nose are as good as ever.

Just some random thoughts from an old fart. Accuracy: It's the barrel. Shoot ten stx 700mm barrels and one if increabley accurate, the others, not as good. Bench accuracy is one thing, hunting or practical accuracy is another. All the guns mentioned will out shoot almost anyone in...
