Still no confirmation in this thread regarding maximum slug length allowed for .35 Impact M3?

The 9 Umarex arrows from Pyramyd Air have been fine, with 3 of them being used extensively, including penetration of sandbags maybe 6 times. Bent some 150 grain field points meant for a more narrow shaft and bent base of blades/bent and dulled tip on a SEVR Robusto broadhead with blades screwed...

Put about 12 rifle arrows down range today. Very nice working on knowing how it shoots with varying ranges. Found some 150 grain field points to attempt to match the SEVR Robusto broadheads. Mistakes are too expensive busting up those tough (but not invincible) mechanical broadheads. Plus they...

Appreciate that rangur1. Kind of wondering if some members here bought one of these early on, thinking it was something different and capable of taking down large game, then had trouble pressurizing it (cock it first time then decock after pressured up) or the scope was fuzzy (adjust ocular...

This is a fun rifle: that is if you are prepared for its nature. It would be very interesting to hear from other members about their experience. We've heard complaints; some definitely justified, and others might just be early efforts and distaste with those initial outcomes. I am attaching a...

Couple weeks ago I stayed home to get the FedEx delivered AirSaber from Pyramyd. Umarex shipped this unit with a precisely designed plug inserted at the end of the shroud and holding the inner tube in dead center. It is labelled to be used during transport. The picatinny rail on the top of the...

Second that motion. Is the picatinny rail a proper dimension? How are the arrows holding up after repeated firings? 

Well. Thought a little update is due. Still holds air great. Shoots more accurately than me. Electronic gauge still works, but only use it for checking amount of pressure beginning and end of shooting session. The bolt assembly locking mechanism seems to vary as it locks. Sometimes there is...

Do you shoot a lead pellet at the same time with a felt pellet? Which is loaded first, lead or felt? The Kitrobaskin household uses Ballistol as well.

String trimmer line works for me. Used heat to make a bump at the cleaning end, then shrink tube over the bump to get the right size for the patch to press against the interior of the barrel (.25 caliber in this case)

Been shooting the Umarex Buckmark over a month. Pyramyd Air sent me an email; said they just got two units in. So easy to mount a Red Dot. Our 10 year old can cock it. Nice adult sized grip, too tiny a trigger curve and way too heavy pull but consistent. Plenty accurate but can't shoot off a...

Hey, not a stupid question at all. It is so interesting to read the different perspectives. I was kind of waiting to see if some member would write that the cost of a compressor or other means to compress gas should be included in the mix when compared to the self contained cartridge.

Nerf Rival offers indoor shooting, though glasses should be used in case of mistakes. Those little foam balls can hurt. 5 years old is pretty young for pellets unless super close supervision, don't you think? 

Efficiency? An air rifle does not use primer, powder or brass case. The energy and resources required to manufacture and assemble those components make the air rifle much more efficient. The previous post comparing the cost of shooting with these two methods is revealing don't you think? Or is...

These somewhat large hands like the indentation for stability and repeatability. Moving through the forest in hand yields more confidence. 

Predator is worth a look, perhaps slightly better performance in our rifles than the H&N Trophy green. The green Barracuda was not good but it could be our tin was dropped, because the .25 Barracuda green is pretty nice in an EDgun Lelya 2. Gamo copper round nose was a severe disappointment in...

Also: Got 4 magazines, so able to have 3 on board and one in position for shooting. It is straightforward to keep track of pellets in the magazine while loaded. As far as indexing the magazine when first inserting, it is a simple matter to place it into position, then pull back on one of the...

On fifth tin with an EDgun Lelya 2. Just so nice. When shopping for a .25 bullpup, could not find enough information about disassembly of Taipan. Maybe that has changed for the better. This is not an issue with the Edgun, with Eduard and EDgunWest supplying plenty of how-to videos. My Lelya...

Hats off to FW for the write-up. Just wanted to mention that the category of airguns also includes BB guns. They can be a lot of fun and the ammunition is cheap. It could be said that skill in off hand shooting is reliant on plenty of practice and BB rifles can give that for sure. Got to watch...

Was testing a powerful springer sold cheap from a neighbor and decided to compare accuracy with the 499B at 20 yards. Target was card stock thick paper on a cardboard box thoroughly filled with rubber mulch and covered entirely with duct tape to resist moisture if rained on accidentally because...
