    Whats the longest shot youve ever taken and with which airgun

    I smoked a crow out of a tree at one of my farm permissions a year or two ago at 225 yds. .25 RTI with 34g H&N's. Took two shots - first one was just a lob out there to see if I could even get close to them ( there were three or four of them in said tree ). The guy that own the property was...

    Airgun Technologies Slowly but surely getting the V3 700 (.22) tuned

    I *think* I've found / stumbled upon a tune that I can live with. Readers digest - the .2165 & .217 nsa's showed up. The .217's were noticeably "snugger" fitting into the barrel and speed over the chrony reflected that. Set them aside. The .2165's, as kind of expected, did in fact show real...

    Airgun Technologies Slowly but surely getting the V3 700 (.22) tuned

    OK - @igolfat8 and anyone else that may be following this -- admittedly NOT a fair test of the MRD's. I'm trying to conserve air . . . and I still have those two boxes of NSA's coming in ( the .2165 and .217's ) that I want to continue testing with. That said - after the last test with those...

    Airgun Technologies Slowly but surely getting the V3 700 (.22) tuned

    lol -- yeah I can probably do that ( @work right now ). I'll have to turn the hammer spring back and get 'em going 890-900'ish and then see what they do. I'll post a pic in a day or two. ( weather actually decent today and tomorrow )

    Airgun Technologies Slowly but surely getting the V3 700 (.22) tuned

    lol . . . *honestly* -- I truly don't know. ( good question! ) I bought it specifically for a slug shooter and those were the first things I sent through it. Not these current ones - some others - these nsa's have (so far) proven the most promising. . . . maybe I should wing some...

    Airgun Technologies Slowly but surely getting the V3 700 (.22) tuned

    I don't regard it as being very noisy - and yes - moderation built into the shroud. It *is* a bit noisier than some of my other guns but then again some of those are known to be stupid quiet and in one case - MUCH lower in power. ( HW100 .177 that I use for field target . . . lol - that thing...

    Airgun Technologies Slowly but surely getting the V3 700 (.22) tuned

    With work and the weather ( frequently cold, windy and rainy lately ) it's been slow but I'm making some headway. I discovered some .216 NSA 27.5's that I (apparently) didn't have any luck with from some other gun so I figured I'd give them a try. Initial impressions from a week or two ago ( I...

    N/A Huma Regs -- can they handle > 250 bar?

    Thanks guys. @Gerry52 -- I'd go with misunderstanding of the question ( or I didn't phrase the question right? ). Whatever. I thought I'd seen / read someplace (here or on youtube videos?) that the huma's topped out at 250. Obviously not gonna set a reg that high BUT - can the reg tolerate...

    N/A Huma Regs -- can they handle > 250 bar?

    I've got a gun that can handle a 300 bar fill. I don't have a reg tester for the reg that it ships with -- I'm tuning it but . . . guessing with minor incremental changes -- you know - kind of a pia not to mention going through air bleeding it off between changes. I could slap a huma in it...

    Airgun Technologies New AGT magazines?

    Sorry guys - got wicked busy at work and with other stuff - just remembered I had this on my cell phone. Old and new mag. I'm thinking may just fill the #13 hole with epoxy or something that would wind up being relatively solid to make it an auto-stopper like the "good" old ones. Again - it...

    Airgun Technologies New AGT magazines?

    I'll post up a pic of one of them in a day or two to show you guys. They do (so far) seem to work well - but I'm not a fan of the no auto-stop.

    Airgun Technologies New AGT magazines?

    I posted recently re: a new V3 700mm in .22 that I recently purchased. They come with two mags - 12 shots per for .22. I already had four of them for the smaller 500m V3 that I already own. Initially I didn't notice the new magazines that the new gun came with as both are same caliber - so I...

    Airgun Technologies New gun - .22 Vulcan 3 700mm / Synthetic Stock - Slugs - what are you guys running?

    OK guys - new post ( sorry - no playboy mags for accompanying pics . . . lol ). So . . . I did a little further rifling around in my 'box 'o various ammo's' to see if I had any other slugs I could try. I wanted to see if I had a .217 / .218 combo so I could get a feel for what the barrel...

    Airgun Technologies New gun - .22 Vulcan 3 700mm / Synthetic Stock - Slugs - what are you guys running?

    ** If ** that bright thing in the sky should actually appear sometime tomorrow maybe I'll grab a photo of it along with an old pl**boy magazine just to doll it up that little bit extra. <grin> I can just see that now - my wife will see me out in the back yard with the magazine, the gun and a...

    Airgun Technologies New gun - .22 Vulcan 3 700mm / Synthetic Stock - Slugs - what are you guys running?

    Per the title of this thread - I just got my new gun yesterday (Friday 05 April) and did some very early testing with it today with the little bit of ammo I happen to have available. I bought it from Talon Tunes and asked Tony to tune it so that I could get 32 - 34 grain slugs flying out of it...

    Airgun Technologies First world problems (I "need" this new gun . . . ) lol (( 700mm V3 in .22 ))

    Trust me - that was a toss up - esp the U2 w/the carbon stock. I have the v3 in 500mm already and it is strictly a pellet shooter - a really good one at that. So I "know" the platform already - I just wanted to get it's bigger brother for the additional punch and reach.

    What did you do airgun related today.

    (lol) -- bought another one. {sigh} :)

    Airgun Technologies First world problems (I "need" this new gun . . . ) lol (( 700mm V3 in .22 ))

    So the subject says it. ( lol ) I "need" another gun like a need another hole in my head but . . . I finally pulled the trigger and ordered one up from Tony @Talontunes. Keeping it simple I just grabbed one of the black synthetic stock ones. For those of you who have one - straight out of...

    HW/Weihrauch HW100 barrel band o-ring size

    Hey guys - subject asks it - anyone know what the size is? Mine broke and I'd like to replace it. I've just wrapped a bit of electrical tape around the tube for the time being but I'd just assume have the o-ring back in place if I can find the one. Thanks . . .
