    Target rich!

    Mean while in Northern Lower Michigan the crickets are chipping, waiting for our rabbits to come back from a low spot in their cycle..........twenty plus years now.

    New gun

    Most break barrels take 300 to 500 shot cycles to break in. That gun doesn`t have iron sights if I remember correctly so you are referring to a scope?

    Help me choose my next springer.

    My question for Chip would be, how magical? $300, $500, more? I like magic but I have my limits. In any case I look forward to seeing the magic happen.

    Hunting: Are airgun hunters more humane than others?

    Smaug, To answer your original question, no. At least in my small corner of the world. But still you created an interesting thread, I think.

    Help me choose my next springer.

    Looks like you need a Hatsan. I envy anyone who can say price is no concern. My latest purchase (due tomorrow) is a Hatsan 95 Vortex QE .25. From all I have read the .25 kicks butt with only a minimal drop at forty yards. I rarely get shots at small game beyond that . My Hatsan Edge Vortex in...

    Hunting: Are airgun hunters more humane than others?

    My main motivation in shooting an animal is to recover it as soon as possible and as near to the sight of my shot as possible. That requires good shot placement and that results in a humane kill. I have seen enough animal on animal predation to know natures way is much more brutal than my way. I...

    Crosman Crusher .22 proving to be very inconsistent

    Robert, Have you checked your breach seal? You mentioned weak penetration and that sounds like the breach. To check it place a napkin over the breach when you shoot the gun. If the discharge blows the napkin off you need a new O ring. I have had them go and when tested it blasted through the...

    Crosman Nitro Venom Dusk 22, Gone throgh it and still inconsistent???

    My NVD has killed three scopes so far including an UTG which was airgun rated. It currently has whatever Hatsan sends with their Edge Vortex. It is cloudy but has stood up to the NVD thus far. The break barrels are all hard on scope weather springers or pistons. That is why I have since stuck to...

    air guns are fragile

    As someone who has never owned a PCP I had no idea they were like that. I have no use for a gun that can not take a bump. As much as I love shooting all of my guns are purchased with one intention in mind - hunting. If a gun can`t take the rigors of hunting what is the point of ownership? I...

    Needing suggestions on new rifle.

    Alright, alright already, Joe! You just couldn't leave it alone, now Im going to have to buy a HW. I dont when or how but if they are all that I have to have one. I am one of those guys that gets good results from his Hatsan but I will admit it is work (not like shooting my wife`s QB78, which...

    Needing suggestions on new rifle.

    Deciding on an air rifle can be a slippery slope. If you are going to spend three hundred dollars why not get a PCP? Because you then need a means of filling the thing, add another one hundred fifty plus. You can get a good gun for less money. I just got a Crosman Phantom .22 for $75. The rear...
