    First N50 match preparation help

    Hello everyone, newer member here. I joined this forum a couple weeks ago and someone local to me reached out and invited me to an N50 benchrest shoot. This hobby really just started as some backyard plinking around with my dad but after looking into the club and pictures I figured it would be a...

    🔴 Decision Tool for "What gun should I buy?" 🔵

    I made this spreadsheet for myself when I was shopping for my first air rifle. Maybe it will help or inspire someone else.

    New to air guns

    ...(regulated) with Lothar barrel and could not be happier. Based on my subsequent research, I'm glad I didn't get an FX Impact as my first air rifle. Mind you, I'm very mechanically-inclined, own a fair number of firearms and have built a half dozen pistols. I'm still glad I got the Marauder...

    FX The outrageous cost of High quality airguns WOW

    ...air rifle a couple of years ago. costs about the same (a little more) than this (my PS90): But less than this: But, for my first air rifle, I got a Benjamin Marauder F&T for $780, which is about the same as you'd pay for a decent bolt-action or semi-auto centerfire rifle. By the...

    Air Arms would like to know - Do you remember your first air rifle?

    Listen up Air Arms! My first decent air rifle that I bought for myself was a break barrel that didn't weigh any 9+ lbs. More like 7.5 Still no interest in a porky Air Arms.

    Been seeing more great 100 yard groups

    It seems that there are a lot more PCP air rifles capable of good groups. It is great to see. My experience is with .222 and Anschutz.22 I think eventually I will sell and get a 100-yard capable PCP. First, I'm going to see how far my Marauder FT. .22 can shoot, it's dead on at 30 yards. I will...

    Airforce Worst PCP ever and I am ashamed that I fibbed.

    An Airforce Talon was also my very first PCP. I bought it from Talon Tunes. It was customized and had a really nice moderator that Tony built. It was my first pcp rifle and I learned a lot while I owned it. I agree that it wasn’t very consistent and precision wasn’t its best feature. I’m glad...

    What was your first Pellet Rifle?

    Daisy Powerline 880 that my uncle gave to my father. It was the spark. Had many other Daisy and Crosman models in my youth. I purchased a used AA Pro Elite 25+ years ago as my first really serious air rifle. What an introduction to springers that was! Wish I had that one back, but I've acquired...

    What did you order / receive airgun related today? Thread

    Most scopes dedicated to airguns don't necessarily handle recoil very well. Some springers , and gas rams can destroy those scopes. Edit : You can use any rifle scope on a airgun , but not a airgun scope on a rifle. I actually did this once , and on the first shot with my .308 it turned the...

    Introducing myself - asking for advice on a new airgun while I'm at it.

    And looks like a traditional "real rifle." Real wood! :) My first (and so far only) real air rifle: So far, it's been quite good. I got the "Field & Target" edition, which is a "regulated" model and comes with an upgraded Lothar-Walther barrel. Paid $780 for it at Pyramid. Of course...

    Benjamin New guy here! Just ordered my first "grown-up" air rifle

    While I was infatuated and briefly considered spending the dough on an FX Impact M3 / M4 as my first air rifle..... I'm SO glad I didn't. I've learned a LOT perusing the AN forum about the FX Impact rifles. I made the right choice for me (Marauder F&T), especially as an air gun novice...

    Crossman 760, so disappointing.

    I’m sorry for the disappointment but I did enjoy your post. I too had a Crosman 760 as my very first air rifle. I received it as a Christmas gift in 1979. I shot that rifle as often as I could and there is no telling how many unfortunate birds fell to that pump gun. I still have it in my safe...
