Has anyone purchased pellets from Midwest Gun Works? I was wondering how they were packed and what condition they arrived in? They seem to have decent sales every now and then. Thanks, Tom

I’m relatively new to air rifles and currently own an FWB 300s and Beeman R7 that I’m very pleased with. I am exclusively an offhand target shooter, e.g. informal 10 meter target and air rifle silhouette (20,30, 40, 45 yards). I love the accuracy of the FWB, but at 77 the rifle is getting a...

Thinking about replacing the spring in my HW77. My goals are to smooth out the shot cycle and elimiNate the “twang”. I‘m looking for a soft shooting target gun, no hunting. I have not done this before and am moderately handy. What YouTube videos do you recommend? What tools do I need? What do I...

I’m going to buy a Daystate Revere for informal backyard target practice (primarily offhand ) and field target competition. I’m new to the world of PCPs. My frame of reference is a Beeman R7 and FWB 300s. A post on one of the other subject areas “Daystate Revere Consistency” has me wondering...

Thanks to everyone for your feedback. Tom

I have a friend who has a FWB 300 that he is selling and does not know a fair price to charge me for it. I believe it is the base model, i.e, the comb is not adjustable. It is in relatively good condition, considering its age. The wood does not have any cracks, large pressure marks, or...

is anyone aware of an airgun show in or around Arizona?

Beeman R7, chicken silhouettes @ 20yards. Challenging to say the least.

Am looking to buy my first PCP to shoot HFT and, if possible, try benchrest. I understand that dual purpose guns are a compromise at best, but would be interested in seeing what might be available. .177 predominates in HFT, is it suitable for benchrest or is .22 preferable?Or am I better off...

Does an HW77 require the use of a dampa mount? Again, I’m new and wondering if the recoil cycle is that violent? I guess I’m trying to calibrate myself to be able to differentiate moderate from violent. Thanks, Tom

Do I need to purchase a mount that compensates for droop? If so, which mount(s) do you recommend? Thanks for putting up with my basic, if not obvious, questions.

Mycapt65, thanks for the tip about shipping.

New to airguns and settling up my HW77 for Hunter Field Target. I’m looking for mount suggestions, I.e., one piece, two piece, BKL, RWS, etc. I‘ll be mounting a Hawke Airmax 30 6-24x 50 SFP. Thanks, Tom
