    I'm glad it's working out for you! For the stock rattle I added some tape to the receiver tube to take out some of the slop and it helped. What caliber 0dB are you using (i.e, did you go one caliber up)?

    Pellet trap target

    I had a pass through on my duct seal target. It was 3 1/2 inches of duct seal, and then passed through two layers of 5/8" plywood on the back. But I was at close range shooting from a rest getting chrono numbers, so several magazine at a concentrated area. I think they are good at a distance...

    OK, it may be candidate for you then. Also you should know that this is a not an easily tunable PCP. There is no hammer spring adjustment (unless you want to add spacers or swap out springs), and the regulator is not externally adjustable, so you need to degas and remove the bottle for any...

    What do you want to do with it? I have one (.22) but would not recommend it for pesting unless you are in a stationary position shooting from a rest. It's long and heavy (10+ pounds scoped), I would not want to walk and stalk with it. I use mine for target shooting and really like it. It's...

    Talk me out of a Benjamin Gunnar.

    I have the .22 andI like the gun but it's definitely a bench or prone gun for me due to its weight. The only problem I've had was a loose stock tube (receiver extension/faux buffer tube). The castle nut is aluminum and a proprietary design with 10 notches so a regular AR stock wrench would not...

    Chronograph recommendations? Old Labradar?

    Have you considered "hardening" up your Caldwell? It could be as simple as putting a piece of steel angle on the side of the housing that faces the firing line.

    ALL your OPTIONS for Filling a PCP Airgun (Filters/Fill Stations/12V Compressors/Hand Pumps)

    I watched and also saw an older video you did on the Benjamin Recharge. Did you finally burn out the first one? What made you pick it again?

    COMPRESSOR TANK VISUAL CHECK

    Most of manufactures stamp date codes on the tanks, and recommend removing from service after 7 years (this is in most owners manuals). I think longevity really depends on use, as if whether you are operating within the duty rating, storing properly, and draining after use. They make aluminum...

    Chinese Chronograph

    My version shows SU, which is standard units (metric), and I press the and hold the button and it then will show FPS to change over fps and ft-lbs.

    What lead removing solvent gave you the best success?

    The only solvent I ever used that seemed to really lift and wipe out lead was Hoppes Lead Remover, I don't think they make it anymore. That stuff was different that #9, and it almost seemed to dissolve lead (I used to shoot a lot of .38 Special cast wadcutters). I doubt most over the counter...

    No Rifle Vise, No Problem 😂

    The other one I was looking at was the Caldwell Stable Table Lite, thinking the attached stool would act like the third leg of a tripod, but not sure if it would work on well on my cross-sloped yard.

    No Rifle Vise, No Problem 😂

    I'm still looking for one of those, too. I want something with adjustable legs for uneven terrain. I was considering the MTM High-Low table which looks like a surveyor's tripod base with a plastic top. Those get good reviews but the table is only supported in the center, so some report some flex...

    No Rifle Vise, No Problem 😂

    Love it! I have a really nice workbench but it's unusable due to the mountains of junk and unfinished projects that live on it. I broke down and bought one of those Black & Decker Workmate folding stations and I actually prefer it for gun work because I can walk all around it versus when I have...
