    HFT Rifle Raw Micro vs BRK Carbine

    My specific butt stock is a raw. But any AR15 stock will work there are dozens of different styles to choose from. All you need is the ar15 buffer tube that threads right in to the back of the pistol. No mods needed. And the butt stock slips over the buffer tube. Same with the grip. Dozens...

    would you shoot it?

    I’d shoot it 100% if I was hunting or pesting. Albinism just a genetic mutation/defect. And usually comes along with other issues for the animal. It’s completely different than shooting a rare or endangered species. The way I see it, it’s no different than taking a trophy buck with freaky...

    HFT Rifle Raw Micro vs BRK Carbine

    Easy choice… neither. Get the raw pistol and put an AR15 butt stock on it. They come in .177 12ftlb or 20 ftlb versions. Here’s mine next to my Mini.

    Other thoughts on "tactical" vs traditional rifle

    I like both. For a hunting gun I prefer a traditionally styled rifle. They are more comfortable to carry and point. For target shooting I prefer a gun with a vertical pistol grip. Especially when shooting prone or from a bench. When FX came out with the DRS tactical there seemed to be a few...

    N/A My biggest aggravation in PCP guns ..so far..

    I had POI issues with my first PCP, an FX. I did tons of research and went with RAW. No POI shifts. They are very solidly built. From my understanding Epic Airguns have a threaded barrel like you find on centerfire guns. That may be a good choice. I hear good things about the Daystate Huntsman...

    RAW Rapid RAW pistol to rifle conversion

    I recently got a 12 FTLB .177 RAW FT pistol with no intention of keeping it a pistol. Putting a stock on it was super easy and it works fantastic as a rifle. This little gun fits my collection perfectly. It’s slightly smaller and lighter than my Mini hunter .25 doing 50 FTLBS. And a heck of...

    FX POI shift Impact vs Dynamic v King etc. ?

    I have no experience with this line of FX guns but I did come across this video. It doesn’t exactly make me want to go out and buy one. If FX ever makes a gun with a real barrel attached securely to the receiver I’d consider buying one. Until then I’m done with them.

    .25 caliber at 32 FPE not enough?

    I’ve killed a few gray squirrels with a .25 cal 25.39gr king tuned to 600fps at the muzzle. One was a heart/lung shot at 30 yards. The pellet lodged against the hide on the opposite side. Dead instantly. The other was a brain shot at 30 yards. Complete pass through. Dead instantly, obviously...

    RAW Rapid RAW HM1000x Accuracy Issues

    Update for anyone interested. I appreciate your feedback. I made some wind flags and did some more shooting. I shot at 100 yards for the first time with the RAW. I was able to shoot a 5 shot group that measured 1.125” and several others around 1.5”. There was a small amount of air movement so...

    RAW Rapid RAW HM1000x Accuracy Issues

    I have the 25 caliber mini hunter, chassis version. It’s shooting 3/4 to 1 inch groups at 50 yards using JSB, AEA and JTS 33-34 grain pellets. No real measurable accuracy difference between them. 825 ish FPS. I’ve tried 2 different moderators and bare muzzle. I called RAW and they suggested...

    RAW Rapid R.A.W. HM1000X Inconsistent Today - Indoors

    Interesting. I have a new 25 cal RAW HM1000x mini hunter that I’ve only shot twice… still pellet testing. I was shooting the exact same 2 pellets you were but at 826 fps. Some groups were spectacular. Some were very poor. I’m wondering if part of it is due to switching back and forth between...
