I used to hang everything horizontally using sheets of pegboard and holders but I wanted something more discreet. I got tired of hanging a sheet over everything to “hide my hoard” whenever I had a contractor working on something. I inherited a bunch of lockers from work when they remodeled...

I’ve switched to hanging everything vertically using guitar wall hangers.

It's my fault for making a vanity post instead of a contribution of knowledge or encouragement but if I had known the childish foundations this post got built on, I would have stayed out. It seems like this is some sort of playground argument that is frankly shameful behavior for even children...

Shot using JSB 18.13 grain pellets from my Gen 2 marauder, in .22, fairly modified with aftermarket bits and pieces.

I recently blew the barrel o-ring out of my Uragan Standard in .22 and took it apart for the first time to get the barrel off and replace it. Between the video showing how to get the initial covers off to get to the retention screws and the walk through description and diagram provided by...

Thanks Mike that’s a great tip! Here are some pictures of the plug I made per your instructions and the .33” DIY first try. As soon as I can form an official club I plan to order official targets and a plug set.

I wanted to share my experience of blowing out the barrel o-ring in my Uragan (standard) and getting it back in place. I had the barrel o-ring blow out last night and after trying a few times to cajole it back into place the angles were fighting me and I resigned myself to figuring out how to...

I had Tony at Talon Tunes swap out the factory reg for the Huma and I asked him to set it up for me to specifically shoot pellets on the heavy end of the spectrum. I didn’t ask what he had it set for but he said there’s a little more that could be wrung out if I want it in the future. When I...

I had a chance to knock two items off my “get to know you” list for my Uragan. I tried it out on some National 50 practice targets and compared it to my (previous standard for accuracy) MMHF barreled Marauder. To be fair to my beloved Mrod, since getting the Uragan I haven’t shot it much and I...

Thanks Harry, I agree! Too fast, and MORE wind drift than at the communally preferred 880-ish FPS! I’ve gotten some .22 Monster Redesigned in and had a chance to test them at 50 yards and I think at this tune they have a slight edge over the Beasts. It still looks like I can get MOA-ish to...

I’ll try to make you feel better. I bought this tank new last year. I had no idea it would be so old! I fill it from my own compressor and I got a smokin’ deal on it but I was still pretty surprised to not be informed that even though “new” and unused, the tank was on the verge of needing a...

I have only tried H&N's 21 grain Baracudas and they performed the worst of any pellet I've tried. I think I had heard that H&N uses a harder alloy in their pellets but I can't say for sure. I am pushing back to 50 yards for testing and have picked up some Redesigned Monsters to compare. I hope...

Wanted to share a bit of my journey so far… When I purchased my Uragan one of the things I wanted was the ability to shoot pellets at the heavy end of the spectrum. I found that the Beasts are just a hair too long for the magazines but single loading to shoot at least showed promise when I...

Well, to quote the Dude, “that’s just, like, your opinion man” 😉 I’m having trouble reading your post but I appreciate any and all attempts at helping. I’m still in the get to know each other phase so my opinion is that everything is worth trying. I’m still playing around with holds, rests...

Quick update... The Carm magazines CAN be successfully modified to accept Beasts. I took the cover plate off and sanded a shallow channel on the inside in order to gain the tiny extra room for the length of the Beasts.
