    Brocock/BRK Tuning a Sniper XR Magnum in .22cal

    My Commander XR also has a minimal difference between settings 3 and 4, and I als o recognize the thought that "it sounds better" as in 'more efficient' on setting 3. My regulator is on 125 bar and hasn't been adjusted --> sticker on the adjustment screw is still in place.

    Brocock/BRK You're all time "go to" air rifle ?

    My Cricket Carbine is still the best although it has some competition from my Taipan Veteran and Brocock Commander XR now. The Commander is easier to tweak with the power adjuster, external adjustable regulator and hammer spring. However the Carbine never needed any adjusting or maintenance...

    Umarex Notos/Zulus HD

    It's the FX cocking handle for the Wildcat/Maverick. You'll need to do some work yourself to make them fit the Notos. If you don't want to do that, there are ready made options available now like these Sorry about the weather :p:cool:

    Edgun Ezfill performance ??

    Thanks, I'll let this one pass. Seems convenient but I don't need to skimp on air as I have a compressor.

    Edgun Ezfill performance ??

    Revive this thread a lil' bit Do the knockoff EZfills work above 200 bar or is that the operating limit? They've become a lot cheaper now and can be bought on Aliexpress for ~€22 including tax and shipping. Are yours still working @Firewalker ?

    Umarex Notos Magazine Problem/Issue

    Did you per chance use JSB Hades pellets? I did and had an immediate jam. I took the barrel off as that is quite easy if you have the right allen keys. Needless to say that that was the only time I used the Umarex magazine.

    Umarex Notos Barrel O-rings

    This isn't a common size but I found some on Aliexpress that did fit. Ordered 3 types and 1 of those fit the Notos. Have to look up which one. However they're quite fragile and probably won't survive putting the barrel in and out multiple times. I suspect I need to replace them the next time I...

    Umarex Notos/Zulus HD

    I used a dovetail to picatinny on the pp750 and picatinny riser on the Notos. Haven't had poi shift with the Notos. Riser was needed to stay clear from the 12-round Carm mags.

    Umarex Notos Huben Dream Valve..

    A 90-shore, 13mm inner diameter and 2,5mm thickness should do the trick. Thanks to @MartinT who did the homework.

    Diana How a stormrider should be

    How much windings should be cut for a better shot string? That should be easy to do and saves a lot of wasted air.

    Diana How a stormrider should be

    These Stormriders/pr900 aren't that easy to work on. Obviously not designed with tuners in mind. Ordered one for a friend and first planning to set the regulator to less pressure. Decided it was too much hassle and it was consistent enough for him but only 21 shots on a fill.

    Umarex Huben dream notos regulator

    New variation on the drop block: https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/1005007434708581.html Looks like you can add a plenum to the reg chamber, but no information on plenum size. Picatinny mount is removable but I'm wondering if there's enough space to stay clear from the average 62mm carbon bottle.

    N/A Clocking Huban cricket

    Good idea! For more search engine friendly results you might want to change "huban" to 'huben'. MartinT found an alternative for easier clocking: use a 13-2,5mm 90-shore o-ring. That works for me too.
