    Crosman 2100 Barrel Surface Rust

    I neighbor gave me a Crosman 2100 Classic. The outside of the barrel has very bad surface rust and pitting. My goal is to make this as presentable as possible. An old timer once told me to clean rust off a classic car bumper was to use bunched up tin foil and WD 40 as a lube and rub that on the...

    Leading In A Barrel

    I shoot my rifle in league shooting and for occasional plinking. I use different pellets for each. Don't want to burn up my competition pellets for plinking. If I use shoot competition pellets in league shooting, then switch and shoot "junk" pellets for plinking, and then switch back to...

    Benjamin Loading A Benjamin Marauder Rifle

    I am thinking about getting a Benjamin Marauder rifle in .177. With these old eyes I definitely need a scope. I see that the loading port for the pellet would be right under the scope. I would be loading 1 pellet at a time, not using a magazine, so my question is how hard is it to load 1 pellet...

    Sorting

    New to this pellet sorting thing. I was given a bunch of cheap tins of pellets and have found that some of the pellet skirts are too large. I don't know if it is worth my time to go through them, but I hate to just throw theses tins out. I would say, 1 out of every 5 are too large. Exactly how...

    To Scope Cover Or Not

    Most of my rifles have scopes on them. They are all kept on a horizontal tabletop rifle rack. When not in use, they are covered with a soft sheet to keep the dust off them. I do not keep my scope covers on when they are on the rack or transporting them to the range in a dimpled foam hard case. I...

    Ordering Pellets In Cold Weather

    I live in Wisconsin and just ordered some pellets. I was wondering if they deliver these pellets when let's say it is 20 degrees Fahrenheit outside, and then bring them into a house that is 70 degrees Fahrenheit, do I have to worry about condensation forming inside the pellet tins? Is this an...

    Pellet Trap

    I have a city lot so shooting outside is not an option. I do shoot paper targets in my basement at 10 meters. I was looking at the Sig Sauer Quad metal target trap for indoor use in the basement. Has anyone had any experience with this pellet trap? And if so, I have a few questions on this...

    Old Daisy oil

    I was gifted an old Daisy 111. I am going to start the cleanup process and was wondering about what type of oil to use in the oil hole in the barrel? I had heard a NON detergent 30 weight motor oil would work. The problem is that I think a NON detergent 30 weight motor oil is hard to find now a...

    Other Webley Hurricane

    I picked up a Webley Hurricane with no scope and mount but it had iron sights. No box. Did some research and it looks like they came with a scope and mount in the box. My question is did they all come with a scope and mount? Thanks in advance!

    MOA help please

    I am faily new to this hobby. No powder burners here. I have been playing around with a Crosman 2100 but my old eyes can't see through the iron sites anymore so I put a cheap scope on the rifle. When I put the scope on the rifle, I had to move the scope 110 clicks to the left to get the...

    Older scope ring conversion

    I have an older set of scope rings that do not have a stop pin. I would like to put a stop in by just drilling a hole in the bottom scope ring and insert a pin in the hole in the ring and into the hole in the rifle. I would like to do this without tapping the ring. Could someone tell me what...
