    What is your FAVORITE Air Rifle?

    My favorites are the AEA Challenger 357 Big Bore Standard for its power, delivering 340 FPE, and accuracy at a price point of $600, unmatched in its class. The 308 Texan is also a favorite for the same reasons; they are exceptional hunting PCPs with a simple design that makes them very easy to...

    Does anyone have experience with a GX e5k1 ??

    I guess im one that likes things that are simple in design and cost effective. At $ 1900.00 plus, thats more then i paid for 2 twin cylinder Tuxings and i have a backup. I fill a 45 min cf tank and a 6.8 liter 2 times a week at 4500 psi. I like the fact i can change the oil and the temp never...

    Pumpers, pain and new age quackery

    LOL, you're so right. I'm 64 and compared to most, I'm in great shape. My doctor says I have great genes. Both my dad and mom are 85, and my dad walks three miles a day. My only problems are my hands and some carpal tunnel from lots of fights when I was young.

    Does anyone have experience with a GX e5k1 ??

    Based on my experience with owning a sealed unit and considering the cost, I would opt for a unit with a longer lifespan that can be rebuilt if necessary. Sealed units have a lifespan measured in hours of use. If you're willing to invest $3,000.00 and plan to engage in this hobby for many years...

    AEA Face lift

    I believed the AEA 357 big bore required an update. When I first got this 357, I was eager to share that it was a 300 fpe PCP. However, someone responded, "You're a liar, I have a modified bulldog that's not even making 300 fpe." Well, they were correct, it's actually producing 340 fpe stock. LOL.

    What Airgun do you have that you would never get rid of for any reason?

    The AEA 357 Challenger, with its big bore 4500 fill, heavy hammer and spring, and spring preload, delivers 340 fpe. The 308 Texan, equipped with a mild power kit and a 3600 fill, provides 314 fpe. Both have proven to be reliable and excellent for hunting. I can consistently hit targets at 200...

    My Hunt/Setup For Coyote#9 - Part 2

    I hunt coyotes from a stationary position. During the day, I track, set up cameras, and find a well-traveled spot. Then, I set up my shooting table inside a 3-4 person blind and position my FoxPro CS-24C. Typically, I use my large caliber rifle with an infrared scope; it's not pictured because...

    What distance do you zero your scope?

    I've equipped a .308 Texan with an Athlon Helos BTR Gen 2 6-24x56 APR56 FFPI MIL and an AEA Big 9 with a Wanney digital night vision/day scope. The Athlon is zeroed at 100 meters, while the Wanney is zeroed at 100 yards. With both, I can consistently hit targets at 200 yards/meters. I am a hunter.

    It might be a bit more in price but,, Thats where Terry Fox has it over most, you can buy the exact O-rings for your AEA pcp all in one kit. I wish all manufactures would follow this.

    What got you started?

    I had woodchucks in my backyard. I purchased a .22 caliber Gamo Raptor, but I was looking for something better, so I opted for PCP air rifles. .
