    Slug accuracy thoughts

    I think barrels with the right twist rate for slugs shoot slugs good, I also think guns made for pellets with the right twist rate for pellets shoot pellets well. I also think we need to stop and say , This is sold as a slug gun, and this is sold as a pellet gun,,, I think people trying to...

If someone tells you carbon fiber tanks will blow up there trying to sell you a tank or something,, I had one fail and when the carbon fiber bands...

    Yes mine came with a valve to drain the oil, Also a tube so you can get the oil out farther, I see the oil on the site is a little expensive but not as expensive as the Mobil one jet oil I had to use in the Shelden, The jet oil was like 35 to 40 a QT ,, Just glad I don't own a JET,, Mike

    Spring sparrow strategy

    Just a quick shoot, Not a lot of time, Set down with the Vulcan II in 177 with 10gr JSB pellets 880 to 900 FPS , Slight wind 0-10 35 yards front feeder . They were so excited with all the hens around I probably could have walked up and hit them with a stick, But I shot them with the Vulcan. Mike

    Spring sparrow strategy

    I shot eight more males today, Well it got dark on me and I couldn't find 3 of the rats, I think I am going to stay males only until the spring and see what happens .

    Other Another...NOT a GK1 thread

    Yes its accuracy is right there with a PCP pistol, No kick or shake like a springer, Mine came with a cool little case , I also do the two pumps very seldom 3. I did take the safety off mine, I didn't like the safety if front of the trigger. I take mine out oil and pump it and shoot it every...

    Just one fill of a gun is all I need

    I didn't think of tethering it to my gun, , Good idea, I used to keep a big tank on my patto out my back door , but was told it was not the best thing for a Carbon fiber tank to go from 50 degrees to 110 day after day, Said it would not hurt it but not good for it, Made since to me Mike

    Just one fill of a gun is all I need

    If I pull out one of my non bottle guns , Mutant,Veteran,Vulcan, oops not the Vulcan 177 it gets 100 shots per fill, And I want to shoot 30 to 60 times , I put a valve on my little tank and it works for one fill, Maybe a little more had not tried seconds with it. Alway thinking of the easy way, LOL.
