    A Horrible Bloody Day

    Well today was not a good day for the pests and bird feeder rapists. I've had some squirrels around for a while now and had cases in the past they tore up feeders, spilled seed, etc. In the past I've warmed their bottoms up with a Crosman 2100 and 3 pumps with a bb or pellet. After a couple...

    Another One In The Dirt

    After taking out some other chipmunks last weekend this morning I got another. There was another one that disappeared and also another I could hear further away doing that irritating shrill chirp they do. Taken at 25yds with the Diana 34 Panther with Air Arms Diablo Field. Why mess with...

    Tangos Down!

    Obviously the chippers are back into infestation mode here again. Last month I took 2 out. Today 3 chippers were eliminated. The first one was a 20 yd target. 2nd was at 22 yd and last one at 25 yd. The last one was the hardest due to being smaller and very hyper. First 2 were solid through the...

    Seal Replacement changes air rifle preferred pellet

    I'm a little baffled here and wanted to pass this along for sake of understanding. Have a Stoeger X20S2 and the factory seal was dinged up pretty bad. I shot it with factory seal for a while and finally got a replacement from ARH. -Before The factory seal was very loose in the tube, was a harder...

GUN: Stoeger X20S2 .177 ("Hoss") MEDIUM: 14 oz.Plumbers Putty (room temp 68 degrees) Pellets Tested: H&N Barracuda Hunter 10.34gr...

    Quest for reasonabley priced .177 easy shooter that is somewhat accurate

    I'd like to pop a question to everybody. I've been fairly disappointed in air rifles and see a lot of factory-induced damages to piston seals when I have opened up every single air rifle I have. (Hatsan 95, Crosman Stealth Shot, Stoeger X20S2, RWS Diana 34) So with that being said I see no...

    German Fever

    Well after striking out on a Terrus purchase (grinding and binding during cocking/loading, and HORRIBLE accuracy at 10 yds) it seems this German bug is in my blood bad. I've took a look at a few more within my reach (after the 21st of Nov) 1) Diana 34P Compact (Matte Finish Synthetic) 2) Diana...

    Hatsan 95 Project/Learning Time

    I have a Hatsan 95 in .22 that has never really impressed me. Over time I ended up having a problem with the front stock screw getting stuck and sort of stripped out. I've decided this gun will be a learning item. The goal is to build a spring compressor, take it down and examine the powerplant...
