    Air bolts out of my Dragon Claw?

    I killed a hog and two deer last year with my Dragon Claw shooting 250 grain slugs, and want to hunt with Air Venturi air bolts this year. I'm having very little luck finding information on suitable broadheads, and good scopes that have speed adjustable reticles. Any of you folks care to...

    Dragon Claw strikes again!

    Love my Dragon Claw! This island buck cam in chasing a doe and I shot him at 15 yards. He made one leap, then walked 10 yards, stood looking around for 2-3 seconds, then fell over dead. The 250 grain Lee REAL bullet did fantastic.

    Got my Dragon Claw power tuned!

    I love this rifle! I killed a 100# sow with it a few months ago. I used a 370 gn TC Maxi Ball, which hit her just behind the leg and exited just in front of the off side leg. It was shooting these heavy bullets 519 fps, and generating 221 ft/lbs of energy. I'd started shooting a Lee REAL...

    Tuning Seneca Dragon Claw

    Any one know the hammer spring specifications on a stock Dragon Claw? I've done some tuning, but can only get around 28 fps increase. I can only add about .030 shim under the spring until I lose the full power hammer position. Any ideas?

    Tuning Seneca Dragon Claw Trigger!

    After reading all of the reviews before buying my rifle, I expected to need some trigger work. After receiving, and shooting, my rifle I decided it wasn't that bad, not a pressing issue, and it could wait until I installed a power tune kit. Yesterday at the range I noticed the trigger getting...

    New molds for the Dragon Claw!

    Tried out two new molds today. Both Lee molds, with one being hollow base and 354 grains, and the second being 250 grains. The 250 shot well, and earned the win.

    Yong Heng wear?

    My compressor has been run for less than three hours so far. I changed the oil after the first 10 minutes of running with no load. One hour intervals after that. I was waiting for the oil to look cleaner before extending the periodicity of my oil changes. This is the oil I bought to start...

    First big bore kill!

    Today was the third time I've carried my new Dragon Claw in the woods chasing pigs. I finally caught them out during daylight and was able to make a good shot on a 80-90# sow. I had my pick between several about this size, a 150-175# boar, and some great grilling size 30-50 pigs. I figured...

    Yong Heng impressions

    I have my new Yong Heng compressor set up and am learning the process. I charged my SCUBA tank to 3200 psi over the course of four different sessions. I changed the oil twice, and it was very dirty both times. The compressor generates lots of moisture! I'm waiting on my long filter, so I...

    Yong Heng fan.

    Instructions are bad, but seem to indicate that the fan on the motor should be moving air towards the motor. Mine seems to be blowing away from the motor. The instructions say to check it, but doesn't say how to correct it. Thoughts?

    Oversized bullets in Dragon Claw?

    I shot my new Dragon Claw .50 for the first time yesterday. I had some .498 round balls, and some old T/C Maxi Balls. The 370 grain maxi balls is close to what I'm looking for to hunt deer and hogs. They shot really well, but I found out later that they are .504 and the rifle's bore is...

    I'm in the game now with a Dragon Claw!

    Shot my new Dragon Claw today! Hand pumping sucks! LOL I think I shot 38 full power shots and had to top off the gun 4-5 times, with one complete fill. When bleeding off the hand pump before disconnecting, I somehow drained all the air in the gun's 500cc reservoir. I guess the check valve had...

    Shooting round balls

    Just received some .498 round balls and noticed the pronounced sprue from the mold. How do you air gun folks address this? Load it sideways so its shaved off when chambering?

    Two holes are better than one!

    I'm really not trying to poke a hornets nest here, but am looking for bullet characteristics that increase my chances of providing an exit hole in deer/hogs at short (<75 yd) range. I have lots of bowhunting, muzzleloader, and handgun hunting experience. I've killed many truckloads of deer and...
