    30-Yard Challenge

    Hey Marvin Congrats to you! One thing nice about having a mini shooting range in your backyard, is that you can pick your time and conditions relative to having favorable wind and when to shoot. I wish I had the same. 20x’s in a row is remarkable in any outdoor environment. What I...

    Official 2025 Pyramyd AIR Cup thread!

    No, I know about the annual Nationals for N50. My reference was directed at the 100y BR air rifle ONLY tournaments. Anyway, that conversation was previously vetted. We’re good.

    Altaros wins World 50M, sets new World Record

    Thanks Jimmy. It may be a 197, but all those X’s at the top with Mike’s card are pretty amazing. I think this is the first post I have seen from you in quite a while. Going to reach out and call you this week. Tom

    Coltri MCH 6 Owners, get in here, this thread is for you!!

    Just saw this on the Airguns of Arizona website. Daystate came out with a larger compressor than the Leggero. This is a Coltri MCH-6 3 HP, just like the one I purchased from Nuvair. About the exact same price. The outside frame is different with the Daystate logo on the cage...

    Is it fair to say that you like Taipans? Ha Ha… I had the coffee laminate Vet1 in .25 Long and sold it to fund another new rifle. Came back this year and bought a Vet2 Black Laminate .22 Long with 700mm barrel. I regularly shoot 30 and 40Y target challenge cards with it, and it is amazingly...

    Official 2025 Pyramyd AIR Cup thread!

    Thanks Dave. No, I understood the time management challenges with having multiple events. Thanks for articulating. At least two cards were used in the finals. It appears that the major sponsors holding these annual air rifle events feel justified in keeping multiple events in their existing...

    What Paper Target Did You Shoot Today

    I wouldn’t want to be a squirrel climbing on your 40Y bird feeder!

    Official 2025 Pyramyd AIR Cup thread!

    Michael - you asked the AGN community what they think. It seems to me that the subject of shooting more cards in the annual BR 100 yard finals has been repeatedly coming up every year. Mike gives good reasons for doing so, but hopefully many feel the same. So , if the organizers of EBR, RMAC...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Ok, makes sense. I’m 100% certain you can get a 200 with your Vet for the 30y Challenge, since you get to eliminate 4 bulls.

    30-Yard Challenge

    Ed, 198-18X 30y Masters is a framer! When one of our family takes a particularly good i-Phone photo of one of the Grandkids, Papa ( this is what they call me) says, “That’s a framer.” Then we send to Frameo so we can see that photo now and again. You should re-score 12A. I was looking at...

    Results Benchrest is perplexing

    Yep, If you are used to virtually no recoil on your TM1000 .177, I can see why “maybe” some of the groups are not what you expected. Jerry, between the swirling winds and managing a bit of recoil on the .30 RAW, it might explain some of the initial disappointment from your original post and...

    Daystate / Coltri MCH-3 failure question

    David Nuvair has various service centers throughout the U.S. Call Mitch or Craig at Nuvair and there may be one local to where you live in Pa. They charge $125/hour to come to your house and $75/ hour if you drop it off at their service center. The MCH-3 is the Daystate Legerro right? So...

    Results Benchrest is perplexing

    Jerry, any status update? Have you contacted Martin to get his thoughts? I have had very good success several times with sending him a detailed email describing my issue, then talking through some ideas by phone. Also, pick ONE pellet (I.e., either JSB 44g, 50.1g or AEA 45g) and repeat your...
