    RWS Bullseye ZR (Zero Recoil) Mounts and Improvement

    This might be a better product if you have a scope saddle that won't fit into these anti-recoil mounts. It's spendy at around $70. I'm very tempted to try one. Anyone has experience with this riser...

    TX200 cocking arm issue solved

    Good call on the bent cocking lever, Frank. Pyramydair does carry the part $59.99. Might want to get one...just in case. https://www.pyramydair.com/product/air-arms-cocking-lever-tx?a=4053

    Diana Diana 48 - Journey Update w/ happy ending

    Wow. First time seeing that for me too. Sheared off at 3 attachment points. What's the serial number? ....just curious...I don't own a 48 but I do own 2 RWS 54. I assume their cocking arms are similarly attached. I guess I'll give my 54s a rest ...till the dust settles. Hopefully Hector M...

    West Coast Weather

    Switched to shooting indoors. 15 yards max, wife wasn't home. After about twenty shots...the sun came out. Looks like this weekend should be sunny-cloudy. Guess it's back to shooting outside. Got lucky. Didn't lose power. All windows still intact. No flooding. Also had a 3.5 Richter earthquake...

    Diana 54’s and 56TH… What to do???

    Keep the accurate one. Buy both. Shoot and compare groups. Then keep the accurate one and sell the other one. If esthetics and ergonomics are also important...then find the more accurate action/barrel and if needed, switch stock (to I assume the 56). Then sell the other one. Or as...

    Cheapo Amazon Chrono OK

    Yup that's the one I'm using. Seems to work ok. Mine is in m/s ...anyone know if it's possible to have it show results in ft/s ? The only thing I would modify is to tape or glue a block of wood in the middle just high enough to protect the back light. ... Guess who was dumb enough to shoot out...

    need TOUGH scope for Beeman Kodiak Magnum springer

    I agree with post #11. A recoil-less mount or a Sportmatch Dampa mount would work. Wished Sportmatch or any scope mount manufacturer would make a Dampa/anti-recoil adjustable Dove tail to Picatinny riser. That would solve a lot of my problems.

    How far with the big Dianas?

    I don't play this game. I mostly stick to low power under 12 FPE springer. But You might want to check out some of the Hatsan. Like the 135 ($300). It's easier on the pocket book. ....Unfortunately, accuracy not on a par with the RWS 54 ($725) and 56.

    Other If you were to run out of air,

    What about SSP and MSP? There were some quality and very accurate SSP...too bad no one is making any nowsaday with these PCPs dominating the landscape. Granted (in general) they are only for short range and low power. MSP...hmmm sometimes I feel like a steam engine languishing in the era of...

    need TOUGH scope for Beeman Kodiak Magnum springer

    I could be wrong but isn't there less moving parts on a digital scope compared to a "regular/erector tube" scope? Additionally, a digital scope is not dependent on mechanical means to hold zero Again, I could be wrong but most electronics today are designed pretty robustly to absorb impacts...

    N/A Reduced cocking effort on RWS 54 ?

    I hear you...it's a hassle to cut and grind new ends. what about just heating and collapsing a few coils? I've collapsed coils on my stove top. Just another option.

    Quality Scope with PARALAX of LESS THAN 10 YARDS?

    Leupold 50ft focus adapter. I've used them before and they'll bring the focus close to 10 yards. This could potentially widen the field of "quality" scopes to shoot around 10 yards But at $62ish...they are not cheap and You'll need a way to secure the adapter if the diameter or thread size...

    New Diana 54 Air King Pro - Factory Lube

    I've also taken my HW97 apart. You do have to be careful threading that end cap back on. Here's.a trick a friend of mine told me to prevent cross threading....without the set up under pressure (spring taken out), rotate the end cap counter clockwise slowly against the receiver tube. Eventually...

    The Evolution of Airgun Optics: Traditional Scopes vs. Digital Aiming Systems

    I see a lot of positives/potential with these electronic scopes. 1. no erector tube/ turret mechanisms to wear out and or bang around by recoils. 2. Ranging is more accurate with a laser (especially with dark targets, no more using the parallax wheel to range ...like in Field Target...

    Does anybody no anything about this air rifle?

    There's actually a lot of real world info on this rifle. Found three reviews on Youtube. Airgun Detective, Airgun web, and Airgun channels 1.Airgun detective shot a 0.22 caliber and reported a 0.36 inch grouping at 20 yards. (and he hit a 2.5 inch pellet container at 40 yards, it's a shame that...

    Game Changer in Benchrest Scopes

    It appears all crosshair adjustments are made electronically instead of mechanically (as in an erector tube)? So it looks like no more optically centering the scope before hand, no more using drooper mounts or adjustable mounts to align the scope to the barrel (for those break barrel with...

    Differences? Nikko Diamond Sportman vs Hornet ED
