    FX FX Impact M4 Compact in .25 shooting Hybrids

    If you connect with any meat on a squirrel with a hybrid, it will bleed out and die in short order. The terminal effect of hybrids is relatively unmatched for carnage ime.

    FX FX Impact M4 Compact in .25 shooting Hybrids

    Ur right there Imho. Two numbers are reoccurring for me regardless of platform with slugs A) 150bar B) 930 fps I just let the setup tell me what it wants to be, I don't chase numbers too much anymore other than group size. Hybrids seemed to be better for terminal performance on critters but...

    Benjamin Marauder question scope

    I recommend a rigid barrel band for the mrod, or bushing. Especially if using another moderator for barrel/shroud sag reasons. My mod is homebrew for weight reasons since the ronin (what I have in stock with no host gun) didn't play nice.

    Benjamin Marauder question scope

    The tuoauto orange amazon compressor is not expensive and has proven to be a good value for the price for me and my circle of friends. 1 of 5 has had issue but he was filling an scba and the motor shaft broke. Again, I'm not trying to change your mind but I will put it to you this way: I have...

    I have a garbage wally world Centerpoint that's worked to 80 for all these years 😅 I used to be really cheap on optics.

    Benjamin Marauder question scope

    Its decent enough and I don't know how silent you want to be. It makes noise, just not the types you would think of. My gen 1 marauder 25 used to ping from the air cylinder like a bad joke. A 1 inch mod filled with mrod new style baffles and a depinger fixed the old girl up. Mines been good...

    Just curious.....

    Do we apply the car/truck yardstick of 25 years old or just rename them "traditionally priced air guns" Nirvana is on the classic rock stations. Maybe somewhere around 2034 they count if we are being picky and discount the girardoni pcp of 1795?

    Temecula Field Target Report 2025 04 27

    I think I'm going to fit better in rimfire events while they don't know what slug guns can do.

    Slug barrel for FX Wildcat mk3 btl

    It has less choke for more stoutly constructed projectiles and more twist to stabilize an inherently unstable slug shape. If you want to shoot slugs and jsb monster pellets, I found the slug liner to be better. I happened to lose the ability to shoot any pellet other than the monsters and...

    N/A Does anyone own a 7000 psi airgun.

    Or you can buy specialty cylinders from a bottled gas supply. I imagine that would even be hard. I once wanted to find hp helium and that was unobtainium for a couple reasons at the time.

    N/A Break barrel for Survival Hunting Bugout

    Don't do a nitro piston ime. I thought they were fine and performed rather nicely till my trail np degassed on a good friend after we did a trade. Two other friends that have them are fine, no issues. But it would be your luck in a survival food situation that it degasses. Best of luck on...

    Barra Found a great tune don't screw it up !!!

    If the precision is there, I wouldn't touch it till it starts shooting funny. Nice work!

    Leaking jacketed air hose

    If it's a legit oldschool shoebox, I bet there's a bunch of good parts in it that could be available with a McMaster-carr or grainger. I think AVE refers to these as "industrial Legos".

    Leaking jacketed air hose

    Ah. Zoom in on that cylinder and maybe sympathize with my error. 😅 My mistake.

    Reflexions

    To me a good group is near the best ive ever done. Competition with yourself is often the most challenging imho. There will always be better shooters than me so I don't worry about being let down.
