    D430L

    Nice groups, especially for such an inexpensive rifle. Interesting on the scope slipping. I ran into the same thing on mine. My 430L had so much droop I had to get a drooper mount. I ended up getting a one piece that was adjustable, but it didn't have a stop pin. After a bunch of shots...

    New to me 430L

    My trigger wasn't very good out of the box either. Mine had no 1st stage and just a sudden break on second stage. But, I was able to adjust it to be perfect for me. Now it has a fairly long smooth and light 1st stage up to a well defined second stage wall and then just a little more pressure...

    New to me 430L

    Congratulations and welcome to the 430L club. I think you will really end up liking that rifle and I wouldn't be surprised if the accuracy continues to improve. One thing to keep an eye on is the breech seal. Mine failed after about 250 rounds or so, but replacing it wasn't too bad, as it...

    Spent time with the girls today.

    Great group at that distance. I can't believe that deal lasted as long as it did, wish I had purchased another. Have you tried the 8.44 JSB exacts in it? I'm wondering how they compare to the 10.34 you've been shooting in the 430L. I wanted to get the JSB in 4.53 head size for a tighter...

    Crossman Fury as accurate as any

    Excellent shooting. That gun is a keeper. I'd be happy getting groups like that at 25 yards, never mind the 37 yards you were shooting at. What pellets did you settle on for your Fury?

    Diana 430L Accuracy Improver or Placebo (in pursuit of the 10 dimes challenge)

    Thanks oldspook, love your targets and the 10 dimes challenge you created. Marflow, thanks for the suggestion. I probably gave the wrong impression. I wouldn’t call it a malfunctioning gun. The arm only came unlatched maybe a dozen times during a tin of pellets, and it may have had to...

    Diana 430L Accuracy Improver or Placebo (in pursuit of the 10 dimes challenge)

    Can Removing Cocking Arm vibration/looseness improve Accuracy? Okay, I’m a rank amateur so take what I say with a grain of salt. I bought a Diana 430L and love it, but I’ve been struggling with moments of fantastic accuracy, followed by moments where POI was drifting off. My first problem was...

    D430L + JSB 10.34 @ 25 yards

    Great shooting. I was lucky enough to be able to pick one of these beauties as well, though I'm not able to shoot it as well. Hopefully I will be able to get more consistent with a little more time behind the trigger. How is the scope droop on yours. Mine took 2+ shims and all the...
