    The slug market sure is heating up! 🔥

    Freedom Press? Way overpriced! 1) No need to have such a robust press to swage lead and I venture to say most air-gunners have metallic cartridge presses already 2) the dies are way overpriced. No justification for $200 per die when you can get carbide 2-3 die sets for a fraction of the...

    Any one use the CARM magazine for Avenger .22?

    The OEM mag is hurting accuracy as it shaves pellets. The A.E. Swede was out when I last checked and being bigger most likely will not fit under my scope. Don't want to start changing the scope mounts so looking at CARM mags. Have heard some positive feedback, but would like to hear form...

    Avenger .22 with slugs

    According to Matt Dubber and others, the Avenger barrel is really good with slugs, great news! Trying to find specifics with the slugs but coming up short. Anyone with firsthand experience using either NSA .22 slugs or FX slugs in .22 and the Avenger? Interested in weight, size, velocity...

    atom: I suspect that the restrictions on firearms in your country is the prime reason for the popularity of air guns and the resulting lower cost of pellets/slugs. With the person in the white house and his henchmen in congress, we Americans will likely be catching up to you guys.

    Been shooting and enjoying the hell out of my Avenger and want to keep doing so for as long as possible. Owners manual is a bit thin on info so I'm asking seasoned shooters for help. What is suggested to extend and assure performance? I've heard put a drop of oil on chamber seals, drop of...
