Shot this guy some more today. Was looking for a Diana model 6 but found this Winchester 363 ( mfg in June 1970) on eBay that was “untested” or code for it don’t work. Was in excellent cosmetic condition but sure enough the front seal was toast. Rear dummy seal was super brittle and cracked...

I emailed Mike about a month ago as well and never heard back.

I like his channel a lot. Watch it quite often. Another is Pellets and Pistons that I follow as well.

Welcome Ricardo! I was born and raised in central California but my family is from Terceira as well. From Biscoitos which would be on the north side of the island. I spent several summers there when I was a teenager but haven’t been back since. Wife’s family is from nearer to your side ( Posto...

Ran into similar with my crown as well. Check the transfer port adjuster. Mine became “flop around” loose to the point the detent ball left the premises. Ended up dismantling that adjustment wheel and the inner restrictor, realigned, and reassembled making sure everything was snugged up. No...

Actually shutupuface if you have the P1/HW45 they cock on opening where the HW75 develops compression on the closing stroke. You won’t be putting much pressure on the scope in my opinion.

I was fortunate enough to find one at B&H Photo a few months ago. Very nice mounts for the Izzy. Just checked and they are of course out of stock there now.

Ordered , or rather pre-ordered, this HW75 on May 3 from AOA. Just arrived this evening. Only had time to clean the barrel and mount a red dot then fire a hand full of rounds just to try it out. Will be dialing it in and trying different pellets in the coming days. Looking forward to it, this is...

Can confirm a fresh breech seal can make a difference. Mine was shooting about 4” high at 10yds. Breech seal wasn’t leaking but did seem kinda smashed. Just installed a fresh one and impact is now at point of aim though I still too have the sight bottomed out. Measured the old one at 4.21mm...

Actually I did call and ask before I preordered. Rep I spoke to (Rich?) said he had no idea but if that was the gun I wanted it was best to place the preorder and wait it out. I have plenty of other guns to shoot. Figured why not? If I feel like it’s not going anywhere I’ll cancel.

I took a chance and preordered an HW75 from AOA this week. No ETA unfortunately….TBD I suppose.

Neither was I…Just searched “500 chip case” and came up with poker chip cases on Amazon a lot like what the OP shows here. Pretty good idea and a nice find by OP.
