    N/A Tinker time, cheap tools, and lead

    Looks like it's gonna pass. Got to try again later....after the mornings pot of coffee wears off a bit. Been a while for me shooting through a scope. Watching the shakes is a bit distracting atm. It's on center at the bull at 20 yards with h&n ftt 14.66g pellets. Currently about a 1 in spread...

    N/A Tinker time, cheap tools, and lead

    Now fitted with a Shiney new vented muzzle brake...soon to be treated with brass black. Gotta get past all the functionality testing before concerning myself with aesthetics.

    N/A Tinker time, cheap tools, and lead

    In its new configuration with a 3x9x50 scope with parralax adj. Coming in at 8.6lbs and less front heavy. Not bad

    N/A Tinker time, cheap tools, and lead

    A little chrono testing this morning. Removed the shim in front of the top hat reducing spring compression in favor of a smoother shot cycle. New barrel is a couple inches longer than the factory 1. Now rws super at 651 fps. sig venom which are heavier coming in at 658, and h&n ftt 14.66 at 653...

    How Often do you shoot ALL your guns ? For those with many airguns

    Not everything gets shot all the time. When hunting season is on the 1s I have dialed in for their specific purpose see more use. Right now it's tinkering and mod season...so whatever 1 has gotten the most recent changes or upgrades will get more time on the targets.

    Would you like

    Interesting how the poll doesn't include an option for those of us who like .177 in a non slug configuration.

    N/A Tinker time, cheap tools, and lead

    It's back together, but no numbers or accuracy test just yet. Still working out a few things. As far as pass or fail predictions....I stand at a firm maybe in either direction. Old barrel cut off...it's fault for getting too close to the saw. drilled out to accommodate a new barrel. Nice tight...

    A Big Thank You for those who accept alternate methods of payment.

    I am the same way....partially out of sheer laziness. I have use pp for a long time and have not had issues that made me prioritize finding a new method. I may look into some other methods if it really tanks sales of stuff I am trying to move....same reason I learned to text. Buyers/sellers...

    N/A Tinker time, cheap tools, and lead

    The rifle is a norica dream hunter in .22. No way to remove the barrel from the breech block. It's also an under lever which makes access from breech side quite limited with anything non flexible. The solution to my barrel issues is under way...we will see how it turns out. It's gonna be 1 of...

    N/A Ft break barrel rifle

    Looks like I missed a bunch of replies...getting caught up on this thread tonight. My search is still on for a rifle for ft. I have seen a few diana 34s on ebay recently, older stuff with a to5 trigger. A little digging on comparison between that and the to6 trigger, it sounds like I might like...

    sun shade question?

    I just looked at 3 sunshades, 2 from athlon, 1 a universal fit. They provide the length. And what model they fit. And the color of the material....but no one makes any claims or statements about them functionally doing anything...

    N/A Tinker time, cheap tools, and lead

    I have fought with this barrel long enough. Super pellet picky, and the inside leaves a lot to be desired. Based on what I can feel polishing is not the fix for this. Has a rough entry where the rifling begins, followed by a rough patch with decent resistance. Then a loose section with very...

    Odd gimmick stuff you cant help but click on

    I hope you're wrong.....either way it looks like the chance of entertainment getting to see other ag related stuff that never should have made it to market is long gone... Congrats...NV is neat stuff

    Odd gimmick stuff you cant help but click on

    Came across an Umarex rifle I couldn't help but click on out of confusion based curiousity. The tactical styled, collapsible stock, h/k mp7 replica in a low velocity break barrel single shot format. Under 500 fps in .177 it has little practical use or entertainment value...

    Unwlecome pellet sorting

    While I go on the hunt to find the pellet each rifle likes best, my favorite rifles are the ones that tend to be the least pellet picky. I got a crosman made 22 that is the equivalent of a tiger shark...eats everything in its path. Some stuff spreads a bit more over distance. Mostly a change in...

    Stoeger Stoeger X20 S2 - big question

    All of my springers have a certain smell associated with shooting them. None of them have any form of suppressor. More noticeable indoors or on days with little to wind.

    Practice, Training and attending matches

    My knowledge of ft is limited, but I am curious. From your post, does this mean you get 4 shots per target in a match...I assume with a lowered score for each shot it takes?

    Stoeger Stoeger X20 S2 - big question

    If possible I would like to see a video of this sparking. Lead is a non- ferrous material and should not be able to do this

    My first Gould Turkey with air rifle

    Congrats! We don't allow a lot to be hunted with air where I am either. You can take coons, and coyote though in addition to small stuff. You can't use air for crow here , but I also don't hunt them. I gotta wonder if the places that allow air to be used for larger game put things more in the...
