    My new pp750

    Raw data from the Ebay moderator taken with a hand held SPL meter from 2 feet away from the muzzle as I dry fired the pistol. Average of 3 shots. Distance is very important with any sound measurement. Remember it's -6dB for every doubling of the distance. So 4ft is 115.9-6=109.9dB. As is...

    My new pp750

    I was browsing ebay and ran across this moderator made specifically for the PP750. Screws right to the shroud without the need for an adapter. For the price of an adapter I figured it was worth a shot. Machined Delrin end caps with 3D printed monocore and carbon fiber body. He does offer an...

    PP750 finally arrived and Artemis Pistols Nirvana!

    My 177 is LOUD. Not sure what I can do to quiet it does without just adding a moderator on the front. Love the size without a moderator. I haven't chrono'd it yet it's a little too loud to shoot in the back yard. Will have to wait until I go to the cabin to test.

    Newbie - recommendation for air rifle to kill squirrels

    Does CO2 have enough energy to dispatch a squirrel? My first "serious" air rifle was a Ruger Impact from WalMart. Using the artillery hold it's been more than accurate enough for dispatching squirrels. I realize not everyone has had as much luck with the Umarex made springers mine has shot fine.

    Vertical stringing

    We have 13mph winds here right now so probably not the best time to try to shoot a group. I'll throw on the chronograph and see what the numbers look like during my lunch hour.

    Vertical stringing

    Beginner PCPr here. Testing some pellets out of my Benjamin Fortitude. I have it turned down to shoot a little more than 11FPE (800FPS with the CPHP 7.9'). My target is 15 yards from my shooting position. I'm shooting off a folding workbench with a sandbag in the front only using a clenched...

    Ice cubes. Satisfying to shoot and doesn't leave any mess.
