I have an airgun field target and bench rest range set up at the local rifle club. And I am always trying to “advertise” and recruit new people into the airgun community. Seems the guys in the club know about it but haven’t come out. So I decided to join them and show how an airgun does. The...

I know I have talked about this some before as it was all transpiring. And I was getting advice and guidance from the forum. But I think this is amazing and it is finally coming to an end. I bought a fantastic modified Air Arms HFT-500 with a regulator. I love it . One night I went to say...

I have noticed over the last few months that my Air Arms HFT 500 leaks sorta. The air tube is a 300cc tube from air Venturi and I have a Lane regulator inside the tube. So the gauge on the bottom of the gun only reads regulator pressure. On the front of the tube the Air Arms Fill adapter has...

This is a separate thread from the original Field target is an arms race thread. I did not want to jack that thread. This is a test of four rifles of different price points. They are all completely different in the way they shoot. But all have the same job. I have been shooting field...

I am happy to announce I am adding a bench rest option to the West Liberty Gun Club airgun range. Not exactly sure how long it will be. But It will be something like 75 to 100 yards deep and about 10 feet wide. I only have one bench at this point so it is really a practice and sight in lane...

I am looking for a new scope and side wheel combination for field target. I really want a removable side wheel. JD custom is what I have now. It is great. But I’m shopping around while they are restocking inventory. I just discovered that the coma side wheels come in two directions. If the...

Ever have a day without problems? I have but generally I fix one thing then begin to work on another till time runs out. Today I had a couple hours to go to the range and make sure everything is ready for tomorrow’s field target competition.Part of that is to try out the range. I shot the whole...

I have a TX200 mkIII. I bought in 2010. I used it for six years and would shoot 2-3 hundred pellets a day sometimes. Then in 2016 I moved and it sat. I shot it a couple times in 2018 but not much. Now I have my own field target range and got the old TX out for a shoot. Even with the wrong...
