    Raccoon Pellet Choice/Tune (vs plinking)

    I was considering this, using a heavier pellet for that extra penetration. I'm still really new with this rifle (PCP/air guns in general). Would changing to something heavier require me to tune my gun to accommodate it properly? or is it reasonable to shoot them with my current factory setup...

    Raccoon Pellet Choice/Tune (vs plinking)

    Oh believe me we're highly aware. The coop was built with all this in mind. Pretty much complete heavy gauge hardware cloth, door latches have special clips and reversed carabiners. I'm not saying impossible but... That said, at least so far they haven't gotten curious about them. I'll...

    Raccoon Pellet Choice/Tune (vs plinking)

    Haven't seen? This is what I'm wondering. If I get the rest of them, will I be ok at least till the next breeding cycle? They are so comfortable here right now. The first 2 were always here early, 10 pm. Now they're gone, the cam saw nothing till nearly 1:30 am when the next showed up. I...

    Raccoon Pellet Choice/Tune (vs plinking)

    I'm dealing with a raccoon problem at my chicken coop. Knock wood they've left the chicks alone (coop is pretty secure) and are going in the run, eating the feed, etc. It's a drive thru all night long. I've got 2 so far. I'm new to all this so... I have an Air Venturi Avenger Bullpup(2) 25...

    Air Venturi Digital Gauges?

    Hello All, I've really been enjoying my new Avenger Bullpup 25. I just wonder about these analog gauges, fill/reg. I was hoping to get some advice about installing digital gauges. Obviously something accurate but also low profile. I do like that the analogs are nicely tucked in and would...

    Air Venturi Noise During Pump

    Hello All, I have a new Air Venturi Avenger 25 Bullpup (2nd Generation). I'm new to the sport and still pretty green regarding the guns themselves. I'm charging it with a budget compressor (Vevor) but it's working fine. From the first time I just notice as it's pumping, there's a faint...

    Crossman 760, so disappointing.

    When I began this thread I was disappointed with the 760. Materials, build, etc. But, it did shoot. Now here I am just a couple weeks later and it failed. After pumping it holds pressure but when I shoot I can see the BB thru the air. I'm sure the bolt/breech is not sealed and leaking...

    Nickel, Dime, Dollars 😂

    Hello All, this isn't anything but some thoughts from a green new comer to the sport/hobby and just wondering how deep I can dig my hole. I recently got my first. AV Avenger Bullpup(2) 25 cal. Groundhogs, Raccoons after my chickens, paper, just plinking. I did allot of research. AV had...

    Rail Mount Cantilever Flex?

    Hello All, I'm still new and green so maybe this isn't any issue at all but it did get me thinking. I recently got the Air Venturi Avenger 25 Bullpup 2. I'm mounting the optic and have a single piece a cantilever mount. I first mounted it back on the rail when I noticed the top rail on...

    Crossman 760, so disappointing.

    Although this thread cooled off, I was just chatting with my brother and had forgotten something. In addition to that 760 , we had a Daisy 880 Pumpmaster. That one I thought was a far better pumper than the Crossman. The pump arm was longer and just more solid. I'm still looking and...

    Crossman 760, so disappointing.

    Hello All, I recently decided it was a good time to introduce my 8 yr old daughter to shooting. Great time to teach safety, more safety, and some shooting basics. When I was about her age (granted it was 40+ years ago), I got the Crossman 760 Pumpmaster. I loved it. My Gpap taught me...

    Avenge x Moderator/Silencer

    Hello. Hopefully this thread is still going ok. I'm really curious how this suppressor worked out? It's 20% of the price of the donnyfl ones I've seen. I have an Air Venturi Avenger 25 Bullpup. I do have neighbors but it's pretty rural here. That said I'd love to bring it down a bit...

    Air Venturi New PCP, Random Parts?

    Oddly enough most of my engineering experience was working with high vacuum pumps (Semi conductor manufacturing mostly but also vacuum furnace, MRI, space simulation, even food packaging). Hopefully some of this I can flip into reverse. 😆

    Air Venturi New PCP, Random Parts?

    Yes, compressor. Just my lazy terminology. 😆. Your right from what I see. Several burst disks along with filter o-rings, etc. Honestly, it's a fun learning experience. I'll have to see if there's any reliability data (Life expectancy) for the main items. I'm going to try to document...

    Air Venturi New PCP, Random Parts?

    Thanks... I did look at the exploded view will parts list/#'s. I didn't see anything with specs for each part. I'll put together a few pics as i get into it deeper. I'm an engineer, not worried about getting my hands dirty but for the same reason I love to have every little tidbit of...
