    Diana 54 vs groundhogs.

    A grundy.......never heard that one before. Get past 50 yards you need good conditions, range finder, and an adequate skill set to make the shot. Of course I killed my first Grundy almost 69 years ago, experience can not be underrated,lol.

    Diana 54 vs groundhogs.

    When I first got mine I shot a bit with open sights and was surprised how accurate it seemed. Then I scoped it and was not so impressed. Tuning by John Thomas cut groups in half. Adding Hectors tuner cut groups in half again. Learning how it liked to be shot made the good groups the norm. I...

    Used and/or refurbished?

    I have bought 3 used rifles from gun forums. All arrived as advertised. I bought one refurbished from a major airgun store. The safe did not work, the loading port and trigger were full of weeds and seeds. They claimed to have test fired it and serviced it. I doubt it. But upon returning it they...

    Hawke Sidewinder 30SF kinda disappointing

    I have a Sidewinder 6x24x56. No complaints. But compaired to my Sightron 10x50x60 SVEDs it is not as bright or sharp. But there is also a huge price difference. Before you buy you need to look thru different scopes paying attention to what you see and the differences. I always tell guys spend...

    N/A What " One gun " to buy

    This sounds like what if you could only have one gun. I shoot 2 Diana 75s, a TX200 all in .177, and a Diana54 in .22. I have won 4 matches in a row with the TX. It was my first springer. Great trigget, superbly accurate. But the Diana 54 was a challenge in 2 ways. First it was a 2 inch gun at...

    I have had no trouble using the external trigger with a TX or HW 97. Evidently the lack of recoil in my D75s negates the external trigger.

    LabRadar

    Lol. I am a Lab Radar user. But even with an external trigger it will not work with my Diana 75s. I had the chance to shoot over the new Garmin the other day. There will be one in my arsenal, slicker than you know what.

    Cleaning Tips: What is your process for ideal accuracy?

    I was advised by David Slade regarding my springers, dry patches only. Never any type of solvent. Never ever.

    Invite who ever the decision maker is to come shoot your rifles. Odds are they will be hooked.

    FWB FWB 300s Stock Finished

    I could have bought it but the stock is too narrow and too rounded on the edge for my liking off the bench . Trigger did make smile plus yours is prettier.

    FWB FWB 300s Stock Finished

    I had the opportunity yesterday to shoot a 300. I live with Jewell, Bix and Andy etc triggers in centerfield benchrest. The trigger on the 300 I shot yesterday was more than equal to any of them. I would think it was at most 1 ounce. It was like snapping a piece of thin spaghetti, superb.You...
