    PELLETS WEIGHT

    If you open your favorite ballistic calculator and play around with the pellet weight, you will see the affect on the trajectory. Weight doesn't seem to really matter for hunting. I personally think that pellet condition (bent skirt, etc) has the largest effect on consistency.

    Daystate Regal xl or FX Streamline

    I love my Regal Huntsman XL. It is absolutely beautiful and quiet enough to be neighbor friendly. Mine absolutely loves Crossman Premier Hollow Points, so shooting it is inexpensive. I paired it with a 10x42 SFWA scope and regularly take head shots on rabbits at 43 meters (the distance from...

    Pellet Box

     I picked two up, only to discover they seem to be total junk. Some of the pellets fall through the holes or will go in cockeyed and get stuck, both issues preventing the lower pellet tray from raising up. Has anyone else bought one of these pellet boxes? Do you have any of these issues and...

    Loss of Power Update

    So I received a chronograph as a gift recently. I used it to confirm the bolt o-ring replacement helped but did not fix my loss of power issue. With the o-ring replaced I was still only pushing a .22 10 grain pellet at 760fps. Yesterday I bought all the o-rings that I though I might need and...

    Loss of Power

    I like the idea of putting oil on the o-ring but the Huntsman manual seems to be very clear about not putting lubrication on anything where it might get in the barrel. Thoughts? LUBRICATION: The bolt shaft should be lubricated with a small amount of light grease. Do not allow any grease to get...

    Loss of Power

    Thank you both for you answers. I did place a piece of tissue over the breach and it did indeed move when firing the rifle. I took the o-ring off and it did not appear to be damaged so I placed it back on the bolt, but reversed the face when doing so and low and behold, the tissue moved much...

    Loss of Power

    Last night I shot a rabbit and quickly pulled back the bolt for a second shot but the bolt would not engage forward and was stuck back. I pushed and pulled about 10 times and the bolt pushed forward. Luckily the rabbit did not need a second shot and I put my rifle away. After work today, I...

    Any One Using a Fixed Power Scope?

    I have the SWFA SS 6x42 and have taken a lot of rabbits, from 6m to about 50 meters. The main factors in choosing the 6 power, for me, were the huge 7mm exit pupil size and the ~7m field of view; I do a lot of my shooting at dusk and need to be able to locate and see the target.
