Supposed to be a low wind evening tomorrow, so I should be able to sight in a few airguns. Ran two of them over the chrony tonight so I can work up a starting point in chairgun.

I picked up the American Defense MFG mount that fits the Zulus and it is great for the Ranger. Got the Zulus right where I want it, much lower, and still clears the magazine. Also got it over the chrono today, getting about 647fps with the GTO lead free 11.7gr so just under 11fpe. Gotta...

I recently traded for this chrono from my cousin who wired it up, custom: It has the lights and the chrono running off of a 20v Dewalt battery. He and his son are getting a radar based chrono soon, so I got to take this setup off their hands.

A pretty level headed conversation. I hadn't thought about possible across the board price raises, regardless of country of origin, to help mitigate higher prices on some products. Reasonable.

Hi all, I just picked up a Vantage IR 2-7x32 AO with a mil dot reticle. My understanding is that the mill dot reticle on Hawke scopes would be accurate at 10x. Am I correct in thinking then, that I would need to multiply the mil values I get in chair gun by 0.7 if the scope is at 7x zoom...

I picked up the IR version of the 2-7x34 AO. I like the reticle, seems just about right for my purposes. Not too fine, not super coarse. Seems like a nice scope for the price.

@Elgreco I am considering this scope for my Taipan .25 compact for squirrel/rabbit/(maybe one day iguana?) hunting. From your pictures, it looks like the reticle isn't extremely fine, which is what I am looking for: want a reticle I can pick out easily, since it won't be used at particularly...

There is a Vantage IR 2-7x32 AO with a Mil Dot https://us.hawkeoptics.com/vantage-ir-2-7x32-ao-mil-dot-ir.html This is the one I was referencing. It sounds like you are saying it will have a finer reticle because the IR reticles are etched? And the non-IR will be a bit wider?

I certainly agree there are applications for a FFP, I am thinking a SFP will be better for this particular gun/use case.

I almost forgot the obligatory pic of the little beastie

Hi all. I used my Westhunter 3-12 FFP on my Taipan .25 Compact for a while, and realized I pretty much have only been using it on 12x for shooting pest birds out my windows. I want to use the compact for squirrels this fall, and also will be using it for rabbits in the yard that like to nibble...

Maybe their next iteration of the DRS Tactical could have a stock tube that holds air. It would not be compatible with standard AR parts, but it would be a way to add air capacity while maintaining the DRS's goal of feeling like a rifle, without the extra tube or bottle.

A 380-400mm barrel version for those who aren't trying to wring out power but like something nice and short would be very cool. They did it with the Panthera, maybe they could give us a DRS Compact Hunter as a fourth option. If they did though, it probably wouldn't be compatible with previous...

Hold on, you are saying the DRS is supposed to cost $2k?

Maybe after they have sat in inventory for long enough they will knock a little off the price... I wonder: Is the ARCA rail on these the same as the Panthera? Would the Panthera Compact Hunter rail fit?

If I was going to get one of these, I would be tempted to get a 500 and put the rail on it, along with a Donny FL FX mod. I would end up being about the same length as the 600.

I don't have one, but I bet it is WAY too nicely balanced since the barrel is nestled down into the stock instead of perched on top of an air tank.

Added a riser and got the Zulus where it is much more comfortable. This bumped it up a bit, of course, so I added a cheek riser to the magpul stock It is nearly ready to go now, just need to zero it and establish pellet path from a few yards out to 30.

These look like a great little bullpup. Is the barrel rail the same as the one on the Pantheras? Can the rail be put on the compact. 500mm, model and still be able to put a moderator on the threads?

I think all those ruffians from BRK have been causing trouble at Daystate
