That should be very doable. Like you, I wanted to get something nice but not go crazy... and see if I like it. I'm new to the hobby and after a lot of research settled on a Benjamin Marauder (regulated with Lothar barrel) in .22 (unregulated also available in .25). Very happy with it. It's a...

Haha... New to the gun (accessory) world, are ya? ;)

Or he's looking to unload some gear.

Precision is a small group.... anywhere on the target. Precision = consistency. Not necessarily accurate (which means not in the bullseye). Precise AND accurate (never mind that flyer shot #5! ;) ) : And a similar example with my new air rifle:

Where?

Well, obviously the best PCP is the first (and only, so far) air rifle that I got a few months ago... Benjamin Marauder with Lothar barrel. ;)

I think that's like asking which is the best make and model of car.... or best make and model semi-auto 9mm pistol.... or the best guitar.... or watch.... or doohickey. :) It depends on what you plan to do with it. What are your purposes for the rifle?

Ha! Have you been to public rifle ranges? Most of them won't even try to shoot centerfire rifles at 100 yards. Most set their targets at 25 or 50 yards. And even then... shotgun pattern groups. :LOL: A few can shoot tighter groups. But 1-MOA or sub-MOA? Pretty rare. But yeah... taught...

I sent an email to Midway today about this... as a "courtesy call" or "heads-up." They responded asking me about the damage to my pellets. I replied that I got lucky with no damage but that perhaps they simply don't know about the "special" status and needs for shipping pellets safely. I...

So maybe they don't work out to being the cheapest.... But, they pack them VERY well protected. I bought some from Midway USA (one of my favorite firearms accessory vendors), and while the price was lower, they didn't protect them AT ALL. They came in a box with a single crumpled piece of...

There are similar aftermarket "big" bolt handles for PB rifles like my Ruger Precision Rifle. This one is called the "Hammerhead." I'm surprised someone isn't making them for the Marauder.

Thanks. I've been pondering which one to get. How far away was the other rifle? I'm just curious.

Is this personal experience? Others report the opposite... that they've had no issues with it picking up other shooters' shots.

With an FFP (first focal plane) scope, the reticle changes size with the zoom, while keeping the angular measurement (MOA / MIL) presented by the subtension references constant. With a SFP (second focal plane) scope, the reticle does not change size but the angular measurements (MOA / MIL) from...

Newbie here. I got this one (not from ebay): https://www.pyramydair.com/product/air-venturi-100-cu-in-carbon-fiber-tank?a=8955 I've had it for a little over a month. No leaks. No problems.
