    HW/Weihrauch Weak guy springers

    One thing you may want to consider is a piece of pvc pipe big enough to fit over the lever, and long enough to give you the leverage you want. My pro-sport seems easy to cock, at least to this 65-year-old, but not everyone would think so I imagine. Altering cocking technique is another option...

    Air Arms Any Air Arms S510 owners here?

    I've got a s510 carbine in .22, a Ultimate sporter in .25 and a Prosport in .22 Love them all. Apart from a small leak, after several years, in a pressure guage (easily repaired), they've functioned flawlessly.

    N/A Manual PCP filling

    I've hand pumped my pcps (both AA 510s) for years, but I used mine mainly for pests and occasional target practice. I use a Hill pump, but there are cheaper Chinese-made pumps for sale on the auction site. In any case, it's a good idea to have a hand pump as a back up, so you might start with...

    Other Do I need a moderator?

    My Pro Sport was quieted down quite a lot with a Neil Claque suppressor.

    Lead free pellets for hunting?

    I've taken a couple of squirrels and any number of rats with lead-free in both .22 and 25. No problemo.

    Lead-Free?

    I've shot them in .22 and .25, and they're great. I'd shoot nothing but lead free pellets if I could afford them.

    Cancelled my PayPal account......yeah

    I dropped PayPal when they started dropping groups whose political views they objected to. Never had a problem with them otherwise.

    What's the most accurate pellet in 25 caliber for Air Arms S510 XS Ultimate Sporter ?

    Sorry, I meant 25.4 grains. And that's in my .25 Ultimate Sporter by the way.

    What's the most accurate pellet in 25 caliber for Air Arms S510 XS Ultimate Sporter ?

    I've found the Air Arms Diabolo Field 24.5 grains to be extremely accurate. In the lead-free category, the Baracuda green 19.91 grains have worked best for me. I can't say that I've done an extensive comparison of pellets on a range, so take my experience with a grain of salt. Here's a test...

    Tx200 Post Rebuild Outing 2

    Are you checking the skirts on the pellets? I find a lot of inconsistency in them; you might try a batch of non-lead pellets to see if you get the same inconsistency since their skirts tend to be much more uniform. Just a thought.

    What's everyone use to fill their PcP's

    Hill IV hand pump which I bought 6 years ago. Use it to pump both my pcps. Like many others, I don't find it a problem and in fact can always use the exercise. Then too, less equipment to have to mess with and work on. Viva la simplicity. Not for everyone, obviously.

    air arms Pro Sport

    Yes, it's a custom made suppressor by Neil Clague, which slips on and then tightens with grub screws. He has you measure with a micrometer the shroud and then fits it. It's perfect. I put tiny rubber plugs--cut from a stopper--between the grub screws and the shroud so as not to mar it. Reduces...

    air arms Pro Sport

    Definitely scratch that itch for the Pro Sport. I've got two PCPs and the PS, and the PS is definitely my favorite gun to shoot, especially once I tuned it down to 12.5 ft/lbs. and got a suppressor for it. A breeze to work on too.

    AA S510 question

    I'd try some different pellets first, since their size can vary by a substantial amount. I have two guns in the s510 platform--in .22 and .25--and both will expel the pellets I use (mostly AA falcons) at the lowest settings with no problem. Though I haven't tried, I do suspect that I could find...
