    Arken Non-LRF Zulus

    I went to the range today to shoot. Nice day under 90 degrees! I have the Arken Zulus 5x20 Non-LRF on my Uragan .25 (tuned by @zx10wall). It has been tuned for JSB 33.95 MKIIs and that is what I am shooting. I zeroed the gun at 30 yards first. These photos are at 50 yards with a hold over...

    Taipan Taipan Vet 2 Tactical with slow leak

    I have a new Taipan Vet 2 tactical that has developed a slow leak. It is the 700mm version in .22. I can fill it up - I did 250 bar then 215 bar - and let it sit and in 4-5 hours or overnight the pressure is under 50 bar but not to 0. I got the gun from Tony and told him and he said to try...

    Benjamin Akela Stripped Hex Head on Bolt holding the Stock to the Body

    I inherited an Akela 177 back from my son that said he will never use it. I went to take the stock off the gun with a 5mm hex key and low and behold, the top of the hex bolt seems to be stripped. I can't get a 5mm hex key to grab at all to take the bolt out. I have googled on "howto" take a...

    Optics Immersive Optics 14x50 Prismatic - New

    I have 2 of these scopes coming in from an EU source. I wanted the 5x30 Pro for the longer eye relief to use for night hunting (ratting primarily) that I can use my NV clip-ons that don't work well with the zero eye relieve 14x50 - which I have on my Panther Hunter Compact. I am willing to...

    Optics ATN X-Sight Gen 5 3x15 Trade or Sale

    I have an ATN X-Sight Gen 5 3x15 LRF scope that I would like to trade for a PARD NV008s-LRF. I have an NV008s-LRF now and I just can't get use to the weight of the ATN with the external light on it over the PARD. And for some reason, I just can't get a clear picture focusing with the ATN. My...

    Ammo Bag / Gear Bag Ideas

    The wife was supervising me cleaning up and actually mentioned how many pellets I had and that I really didn't have a good way to haul them to the range or anywhere for that matter. I have a birthday coming up and she actually offered to get me something if I could tell her what I wanted. I...

    One Squirrel By One Squirrel...

    I was able to reduce my wire gnawing vermin by one again today. This one was one of those "delicate" shots. I have an open lot in front of mine where the city decided that they needed to have a flood plane drain, so they wacked the house and now it is my dog's permanent toilet! The squirrels...

    BRK Sniper XR and Pard NV008S-LRF Rabbits

    Well I got lucky and found 2 rabbits about 60 yards apart tonight. I shot both in a matter of a couple minutes. XR Sniper .22 using CPHP 14.33gr pellets - the gun loves them. Pard works very well. The Laser is a bit off the center of the reticle when ranging, but I move the laser over to the...

    FX First Impressions and Sighting in - FX Panthera HC in .25 caliber

    I went to my normal range and they said my membership needed to be renewed, but their system wouldn't be ready for another 2 weeks and it was $25 for the daily fee and my semi-retired shackles went up and I said "I'll wait!" So I went back home and went into the backyard to do some shooting...

    Squirrel Activity

    Well the squirrels have finally decided to hide their nuts (acorns). I was able to "harvest" 2 today about an hour and a half apart. Both headshots although the 2nd turned to the side and I have not moved him. Neither moved after the shots except the familiar nerve twitching. Wolverine R 177...

    Daystate (Coltri) Compressor Blew the Safety Valve

    I recently setup my Daystate 4500 PSI (110v) compressor to start filling my CF tank. After the setup and 5 minute break in, I went ahead and got ready to top off my tank. The tank was at about 200 bar. Following all the directions and the videos before trying, I went ahead and started to open...

    American Air Arms Evol 15 Shot Count Drop

    So I took my Evol 15 out today after filling it to about 260 bar before going out. The pressure for each shot was set at 2000psi from AoA and I have not fooled with the gun. I go out and wanted to sight in some of the JTS 18.1 gr and see how they did. I normally shoot the JSB 25.39s so I...

    Daystate Wolverine R Help

    I took the wife out to shoot tonight and she always picks the Wolverine in 177. Well she was shooting and she had a hard time closing the breach on a pellet and after that shot, the next thing I know is that the gun is making a "bark" of air where the magazine is loaded. Could she have broken...

    PCP Rifle BRK Sniper XR Safari Magnum 25

    I have a Brocock Sniper XR Magnum with the Safari stock in .25 caliber for sale. Condition is excellent. The gun has maybe a tin of pellets through it. I have a RW HP in .25, a Huben K1, and a @zx10wall tuned Uragan in .25 so the gun doesn't get much shooting at all anymore. Time to hand it...

    Other Walther LG 300 XT Junior Cylinder Fill Question

    I have a friend who's wife shot competition 10 meter in high school. He asked me to take a look at it for him and said he had 2 or 3 pellets stuck in it. The pellets came out very easily, but then I went to fill up the 2 cylinders and to my amazement, it wasn't standard at all! I looked...

    Pulsar Front Attach NV Clipons

    Has anyone gotten or tried the new Pulsar NV and/or thermal front attach clip-ons? The Krypton 2 and the Forward F55S look very interesting. I have a Pard NV007S that I move around to different scopes as well as an ATN Gen5 3-14 which I can't get to focus clearly at any distance. I like the...

    Optics ATN ABL 1000 Laser Range Finder

    I just upgraded my 4k Pro to the 5th Gen version with integrated range finder. ATN does not take back "auxiliary" items. This unit is not even a month old and maybe has an hour of time on it. Can't use it with the new scope. $170 shipped CONUS OBO. PP F & F preferred.

    Strange Noise in my Wolverine

    I went out yesterday with the wife to shoot at the range. She always grabs the Wolverine R .177 to shoot as it is her favorite (I shoot it a lot also) I've had the gun since last November (bought form AoA). So today I put it on the bench to clean and go over and I have a strange noise when I...

    ATN Service

    I thought I would share some of my service experiences with ATN. I have the 4K Pro 3x14 scope with the ABL - 1000. When I first got the scope, I had it going only a few hours when I plugged it in and it got bricked. I sent in the RMA and the support folks took care of it right away. I had...

    Nite-Time Follow up to Downed Tree Rat!

    Well I took the dog for our nightly walk and when I got back, there was a bunny in my front yard. The dog gave a token chase as she is smart enough to know she can't catch them and I went to the side fence door and the "rabbit entrance" was getting larger. I still had the rig that I used with...
