    Springer vs. PCP

    I'm a little late to this thread (on vacation for a couple weeks). But in my limited experience (12 amazing springers and 4 high end PCP's), the best springer (for me FWB 150) cannot approach the accuracy and repeatability that the PCP's can. But I'm an inexperienced amateur that shoots in my...

    What springer did you shoot today?

    I've got a brand new walnut HW30 in .20, scoped and ready to go. But it's 93 degrees with oppressive humidity. I'll try it in September, maybe October. Plus 11 other springers...I'm relegated to shooting pistols in my air-conditioned garage. Outdoor shooting is a seasonal sport in South Florida.

    What pistol did you shoot today

    Shot these two...I know how accurate the FWB P8X is but the Crosman Mk2 held it's own!

    What pistol did you shoot today

    I don't have a 65 but my 80 is just a "thunk".

    What pistol did you shoot today

    Yes, that counts! Here's my version with a newly installed TKO moderator, which is perfect. This is my set up for curly-tailed lizards. They are fat, ugly and invasive. Took out 4 earlier, missed one. Should have posted it in the "headshot" thread ;-).

    What pistol did you shoot today

    Too hot to shoot outside, so broke out my 3 springer pistols to shoot dots at 15 feet in my air conditioned garage. Off-hand so I didn't actually hit the dots ;-), but very close with the FWB 80...

    Improvements?

    I have the Sarissa, it's massive but extremely effective. I should have ordered the Falx...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Some amazing cards, my competitive nature is killing me. But in South Florida the shooting season is in the winter. Just had to comment though, @tommyb this card is amazing to me. I live for "X's" that are literally dead center. I know that 10's win, but when you hit dead center it's like the...

    N/A Target air pistols

    Three of my 4 target pistols, the other one is a 1701P. These are all extremely accurate. The FWB 80 is new to me. Really amazing, esp since it is a springer. My first shot with it, off hand at 15 feet (my garage "range") was a bullseye without even adjusting the sights. The P8X, though, is a...

    Shot my two favorite semi-automatics. Both are amazing in their own ways...

    30-Yard Challenge

    The power adjustment is just a dial that is indexed and simple. I’ve tested those pellets in the past at different velocities and the 510 didn’t like them. The adjustment doesn’t always allow you to be in that precise fps range, though. I have done well with the JTS 10.4, Benjamin 10.5, and the...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Shot two cards with the .177 Black Wolf using the JSB 16.2's. Did a bit better, was not in a hurry. There was one crazy flyer. I have a port restrictor coming from AoA so we'll see how it goes with lighter pellets at standard velocities. Also tried those 16.2's in my AA S510XS at its highest...

    My eyes require magnification. And that rifle demands it at 30 yds...

    What springer did you shoot today?

    I haven't shot my springers for awhile. Summer in S. Florida is not kind to outdoor sports...but today I had a bit of time before the sun went down that was not brutal ;-). So I chose my .177 HW30 with a custom stock and my FWB 150. Still obsessed with the FWB, and it delivered!
