JSB Hades are basically a roughed up diabolo and they have significantly lower ballistic coefficient. Reynolds number describes the intensity of turbulent energy in a fluid flow. There are a few narrow ranges of Reynolds number where roughness reduces drag. Golf balls size and velocity happen...

Those skirts are definitely not clean and clear. How do they shoot?

I quit Paypal years ago. They will shut down accounts and refund purchases for no legitimate reason. As a buyer things are pretty cushy with them. As a seller they will stab your back. In the classifieds world, you'll eventually be selling as often as you buy and so consider yourself warned...

There are slugs out there sized for mammoth power 5-shots-per-fill beast guns as well as high power pellet PCPs (which is low power for slugs) and everything in between. I'd start shopping in the 40-50gr range for a Panthera pushing 90fpe. Finding the right slug can be brutal considering how...

"13. safety glasses (if the range requires it)" Safety glasses regardless of whether the range requires it. I took a ricochet of lead last season on a 15y target. They're not common and they aren't high power but they would mess you up if it went at your eye. You will miss targets between...

I rely mostly on regular feedback preferably both as a buyer and seller. I always include my phone number in case the other party wants to do a call and although I don’t always initiate the call I’m always happy when there is one. You get to chat up with another airgunner, talk about the item...

IN looking forward to the arrival of my swaging die set

Or it could be some barrels shoot better clean and other barrels shoot better a bit more loaded up. I’ve observed some situations where bits of lead stick to the bore and until they get shot out they will throw shots. A pull through resolved it. Not sure if it’s observable outdoors but on an...

You said it better!

Conservation of momentum says that if the slug didn't pass through it would send the bird straight back and spin it around based on how far the poi is from the birds center of mass. If the slug blows through and redirects off of something hard as it passes through that could send the birds body...

Was that variant done by the custom shop, or did Weihrauch make them like this? Just wondering. Also what power is it tuned for? It's a sweet piece regardless.

It's hard to know what power level will suit your needs. Springers are a bit clearer in terms of what power will make you *un*happy, which is to say you feel every ft-lb in the shot cycle and cocking, and most shooters who take a step down in power/weight never want that power back. Call it...

I’ve owned and tested a lot more than zero.

I don’t see how that will prove anything. It takes testing multiple copies of any single model over many production batches to have data that says a model is consistently good. The opposite question, which is how many examples does it take to prove a model is not consistently a good...

I’m not aware of any at these price points that work consistently well.

If I was restricted to box store airguns, I’d buy from the store with the best return policy and return until I found one that shot and did not fall apart. I don’t think low end airguns are all junk, just that some are and you can’t tell which from what.

So I’ve shot my first season and a half of FT in Hunter division using a SIII 10-50x60 FT scope. When I bought it I was looking for a field target capable scope and I didn’t realize that maybe it was overkill for Hunter class. Maybe. Long story short the “ranging” is depth of field at a given...

You’re going to need a compressor, a good .177 pcp, some good pellets or slugs, and a 100+ yard indoor range.

It almost suggests having a handicap like the golf. I could see it being sloped on the Troyer scale, and like golf, it should probably lean toward how you shoot on a good day vs. just your average. Or again, like golf, have different sets of shooting lines. Use the shorter set for the less...

1. Agree use the slug port side. 2. How far up have you adjusted your reg pressure?
