    Pellets and slugs from the same gun and barrel at 100

    Wow that is neat shooting both projectiles so precisely! After someone else noticed I see that the trigger is pretty "screwy" looking ;):p

    Best scope for benchrest?

    I forgot about my post here but I did post many thoughts in other threads of the Athlon Ares ETR 15-60x56. Basically it pretty much puts most target scopes I've owned or looked through to shame being right up there with the expensive ones or outclassing the less expensive ones significantly...

    Steyr Steyr new semi-auto range

    It could use a moderator too but moreso how it sounds near the ear where the air goes through the magazine. Mine might not be adjusted correctly as far as the gap but I haven't shot another ProX to be able to tell if mine is more loud than others or not.

    North East Airgun Classic 2024 Winners Pro Benchrest

    I learned the hard way to bring foam ear plugs to pass out to the other competitors at my closer benches when I used my Thomas HPS.

    FYI for Athlon Helos BTR GEN2 2-12x

    Congrats and good job Athlon for stepping up on the perks!

    Steyr Steyr new semi-auto range

    Very cool! Let us in on the weights of them ASAP. I use my ProX primarily for plinking and at 30 fpe in 22 cal it's a bit loud in my ear so it'd be neat to get a 17 cal at around 12 fpe to "hopefully??" tame that sound some and give more shots per fill. But yes those Steyrs of mine, LP5...

    Best 25-100 Benchrest Scope for PCP

    My guess is either Athlon would be the best value and I highly doubt one could tell a major difference in IQ compared to much more expensive scopes. Like for example my S&B 5-25 or my March Genesis both being only the slightest bit different that my ETR 10-60. I wouldn't have even thought that...

    Optics S&B PM2 5-25x56 DT CCW H59

    I'll miss this scope! In great shape, excellent glass, has always worked well, and has helped me win quite a few matches in FT and on centerfire Tactical rifles for Field Courses on steel. The H59 is my #1 choice for holdovers and holdoffs. Cashiers check, personal check and wait to clear...

    Airgun owners vs firearm owners

    It goes in spurts or seasons. So nice living in the west with plenty of areas to shoot. A friend came to visit so I brought my 6.5 Saum out since he hadn't shot it yet, dialed 6.8 mils, held off .7 mil for wind, and cold bore'd the 1143Y steel. No way around it, that's just cool! Then dialed...

    Athlon Forerunner?

    I guess this is Athlon's try at a basic inexpensive big game hunting scope. It's lighter weight than the Talos 4-16 and has a wider FOV at 4.5x than the Talos does at 4x. Likely also a wider FOV on 14x than the Talos does at 14x. Might also have superior lens coatings and prescription since it's...

    Comparable Scope to the Athlon Cronus

    Probably have to go 'up' in price to something like the March 4.5-28x52 for a FFP scope as far as lighter weight and focuses at 10Y with better IQ than the G2 Cronus. IMHO, The problem is that the G2 Cronus is the best scope going in this price range as far as street price so its difficult to...

    US Optics warranty service is horrible!

    Another friend has one like it called the USO MST100. It's a copy of the original USMC Unertl though I think doesn't have the quality of the original. It has something wrong with it because the crosshair cannot be fully put in focus and its otherwise blurry. This friend has never sent it back...
