    Daystate Red Wolf shooting really bad

    Excuse me for not coming back to this thread. Two weeks back I experienced the most amazing eye-opener. I was struggling with my RW. AOA have been nothing short of amazing. In fact, I can't remember ever getting better customer service than from those guys. Anyhow, they played around with a lot...

    Replacement butt pad for FX Impact

    I am working on that. This is mainly for those who want to not deal with the difficulty the Impact has riding in a red bag and this works great. I will post when i have the version with Lop adjustment and adjustable post and ball. Chris

    Replacement butt pad for FX Impact

    I thought I would post some pics of the bag rider parts I made. Just got them back from the coating company. They are aluminium hard anodised and designed to allow the Impact to ride the bags better than the factory butt pad. It secures with the thumb screw and works pretty good. Sometime I am...

    Here are some pics of the hard anodised bag rider. Just got them back today.

    Bag Rider for the FX Impact

    Thanks you Mrshosted. I will be introducing a post and slider for those who do not want to use a rear bag. Seems like a popular request. I will have some anodised prototypes back next week. Will post a pic. I will look into the adjustable pull lengths through an adjustable shoulder pad. Right...

    Bag Rider for the FX Impact

    Here is what I think is my final prototype. I will make some up from this. Weighs a lot less. Slips in and out easily and secures with the thumb screw. I will hard-anodize black. It works great for me. I will add a removable post at the bottom so that one can do away with the sand bag if one...

    Bag Rider for the FX Impact

    I do not know what is a fair price. It is quite a bit of work. I was thinking $119. I really wanted to try be under $100 but the costs are a little high. Feedback is welcome.

    Bag Rider for the FX Impact

    The main problem with printing (besides looks) is the time taken to produce. It would be cost prohibitive.

    Bag Rider for the FX Impact

    That is accurate and appreciated feedback. It is heavy and I was just posting the concept. I plan to skeletonise it with slots that fit in with the Impact stock. Delrin is also heavy so that does not solve the problem in a big way. But I can assure you there is lots to be done to improve...

    Bag Rider for the FX Impact

    I forgot to add that it slips out like the factory butt pad and secures with the thumb screw.

    Bag Rider for the FX Impact

    I developed this as I was struggling with getting the FX Impact to ride the bags nicely. It works very well. I wonder if there would be any interest in this type of thing...

    Barrel Vibration

    I am shooting with the shroud on. Have tried it off as well to ensure the shroud was not the problem. It is not unusually loud. Very normal sounding. The barrel is very secure - no movement there. I suspect that the vibration is caused simply by some incompatibility between barrel, velocity...

    Barrel Vibration

    I was reluctant to post the make of the gun as I do not want to bring negative attention to the make or model. But I understand that it does make things trickier to diagnose. It is a Daystate Red Wolf. I am very new to tuning air rifles. Ask me about 6ppc benchrest rifles and I can tell you...

    Barrel Vibration

    The vibration in the end of the barrel was noticeable. I certainly can't quantify how much but it is distinct. Typically I would not be too concerned but I have seen some videos on YouTube where free floating barrels are perfectly still. I am not sure if the vibration is a problem, that is my...

    Barrel Vibration

    I have noticed that the barrel on my PCP rifle vibrates more than what I have seen on YouTube videos. When watching some of the reviews on rifles, one can sometimes not even notice that the shot was fired other than for the report. In my case there is a definite vibration. To make matters worse...

    Struggling with accuracy

    Well, I have some good news. i sent the rifle back to AOA and they shot it with several barrels, one of them a super accurate barrel and although they had some signs of improvement it never shot well. They too it upon themselves to replace the action and barrel and I got it back on Friday. I...

    Pellet Trap

    I will put two wheels on it with a handle and that way I don't have to carry a 50 pound box around. I do not want any metal in it because it is (1) heavy and (2) noisy. Silence is golden.

    Pellet Trap

    This is brilliant - never thought of rubber mulch. I will get some today and fill my target box with it. Quiet is key. Thanks so much for this tip! Chris

    Pellet Trap

    I am new to PCP (6 weeks) but loving it. I need to build a pellet trap for 30 yard shooting. I shoot 22 and 25 and I am sure I will get all the other calibers in time. - must be effectjve - must be as quiet as possible! - reasonably light would be nice - frontal view 24”x24” Any...
