i have 2 pard clipons, an atn 384 thermal, and (2) 4k pros ... the pards will get the job done but are unintuitive to manipulate in the dark, still theyre good for the money .. the thor4 thermal works for airgun use but lacks detail and in the heat of 'battle' that can be somewhat disorienting...

my dad got me and my brother both a 760 back in the 70's .. then i moved onto pb's for years and never used pellet guns until things started going 'left' if you get my drift ..i was 'reborn' to airguns full tilt around 2010, this is one of the first ones i got, Big Cat .22, for a cheaper...

if ya hafta, flip it around and use it as a club ...

i like the caldwell turret rest about the best ..just about anything works in it, its solid but allows movement ... its not ultimate in solid but enough to eliminate the 'heartbeat shakes' ..i can sight in pretty good with it and cover a wide area without adjusting anything .. drawback is its...

that works somewhat, big rats like this are too smart for bait or sticky pads, got to catch them just right, let them get comfortable for awhile lol .. been trying to get this one for some time ...

generally infrared scopes have day and night mode just like a digital cam .. main consideration will be resolution of the screen image your looking at, its a digital image, not optical .. id say you want at least 1080 capability for a fairly clear image at a distance, some of the cheaper ones...

big destructive rat been trashing my shed for weeks it had ruined alot of my gardening supplies, not to mention pooping on everything and making it nasty .. it wasnt his day .. now i can clean my shed

springers are simple, grab it out of the closet, chuck a pellet in it and shoot, return to closet, thats it lol .. but pcp adds a higher dimension of accuracy, power, and stealth/silence at the expense of needing more prep and support ..depends what your doing and how serious it is if you 'have...

i wouldnt want a .25 for larger critters after hitting many different things at my chicken coop .. do i have a 60fpe .25? yes, and no its not really enough for anything but a square headshot , and really, a 30fpe .22 will do the same thing.. you wont need semiauto .. nothing is gonna hang around...

i think the main enemy your fighting with slugs is its gyroscopics vs keeping the nose pointing into the pronounced arc trajectory of airguns .. it wants to stay on the same plane it left the barrel with no pellet 'wings' to help it fly the arc ..so yeah, following this theory the faster and...

good luck, you may find parts for it but doubt it .. those valves on tanks like that tend to be proprietary, and enough searching can probably find you one on ali express for 25 bucks ... thats how cheap they are in my experience, and the design doesnt lend itself to easy smooth operation for...

ive found that using silicone 'oil' about 30w, and just lubing all the male air fittings with my fingers does wonders for keeping valves etc consistent and things working nice and slick .. i wipe alittle into the ends and that in turn lubricates things internally while filling just enough to...

i think youre about right on, but to arrive at the right harmonic youll read it by pellet speed .. i usually do everything backwards and try to get the speed as high as reasonably possible and then tweak other things to tighten them up to an acceptable level ..

letting my chickens out this morning my eye caught this guy sneaking along the fenceline .. sure enough, headed straight to the coop to fish out any eggs that get laid is my guess .. during the day is the interesting part .. a single crosman 14.3 ended his nonsense ..

hawkes ok for a cheap scope, id want the duplex, and consider a 9x scope as a close in scope on an airgun, like under 40 ..no cheap scope is suitable for competition level targeting, but theres many that fit the bill for pesting, and for pesting on a capable gun i like a 16x, and side focus...
