    JTS .25 vs JSB .25 vs AEA .25 ? AGNs thoughts?

    Congrats on the Ghost! I'd say you're back now. Good question, I'll be following this one. I still haven't tried JTS but I am curious how their 34gr would work in my guns compared to the JSB MKII.

    You know you are an Airgunner when...

    You just buy another gun and save the box. Glad I could help!😂

    I am giving it the completely unofficial name of "The BeACh" It makes it easier to talk about, see you at The BeACh!

    Barra 250z moderator

    Now that I've had some quality time, and numerous outings, with my .22 250z, I would like to report that I ended up getting a 0dB 110 in .22 caliber size and it is amazingly quiet and does absoluetly nothing to the accuracy. I am extremely happy with the performance.

    JTS 18gr vs JSB 20.83gr KO slugs

    Utah Airguns does have them, I thought the same thing. They have a weird menu system on their website. Click on the JSB KO picture for whatever caliber you want and then the second menu will let you pick the size and weight you want. The original picture that you are clicking is just a...

    Crazy price of used guns

    It depends who is putting them on and doing the work. Sometimes in the classifieds you will see modified guns, by known high quality tuners (AZ, DW) and those guns, if just used by the seller are worth more than new most of the time and are resolved and problem free, if the seller is a well...

    JTS 18gr vs JSB 20.83gr KO slugs

    I have been shooting the JSB KO 20.83gr .216 slug at 980fps out of my barra 250z and it has remained a tack driver and I haven't had to clean the barrel yet, with about 150 slugs shot. I love this slug. This is the first .22 that I have shot that is beyond the 32fpe range of power, and it is a...

    What’s your favorite target?

    I like to tie up and hang duraseal targets from tree branches. They hang down about 6' with paracord and you can use the line to check your cant. When hit they dance wildly, it's real easy to see, and you don't have to reset or paint them all the time. The most important thing is that they are...

    New Foam Mattress and Sleeping Beauty

    That is an awesome price! I wonder if you're able to get it so cheap because it's made next door to you? Regardless, I am jealous of how tight that Epic fits into that case. I love folding stocks, for that reason alone. Nice job, and nice gear!

    New Foam Mattress and Sleeping Beauty

    It's not going to be cheap. They are not really about value, or looking to sell a lot of so-so junk. They literally make the best stuff going and are not looking to damage their status or reputation by cut throat pricing or manufacturing techniques. If you travel and have big money invested...

    JTS 18gr vs JSB 20.83gr KO slugs

    I tried them in my Barra 250z and the 20.83gr KO's are the bomb! Definately, after 11 different slugs, this is what I was looking for. Thanks for the tip, because I never would have tried .216 without your recommendation.

    N/A EVOL vs Epic two

    I never ever said or implied that it wasn't, I said that if someone is just looking for the best, no compromise in materials, airgun, the Evol is a step up, at the top of a very high set of stairs, compared to just about everyone else, shy of bespoke guns. My sub-$300 airguns are sweet too, all...

    .30 cal Fx hybrids going crazy…..

    Hybrids in my AAA Paradigm shoot hole in hole at 53y, for 30 shots, then I have to pull a patch. So every fill, I pull a patch and they are lights out accurate. Yes, this is kind of a pain, but it's consitent. So much so, that it is worth doing, nothing shoots better. Clean your barrel well...

    N/A EVOL vs Epic two

    The point is, that for the price you are paying for both of them, one receiver is almost twice as strong as the other. If push comes to shove, who in their right mind would choose 6061 over 7075 if you had a choice at all? Not me. Buy what you like, and what's good enough for you, but if you...
