I understand, and fully agree with the desire to keep the forum non-political. But I continue to see the above reference to agencies that are usually pretty obvious, and I don't understand that paranoia. Why should we hide the reference to a regulatory agency? I mean, what should we call the...

I think the moderators on this web site generally do a great job of keeping the members on point with appropriate discussions. Occasionally, I see instances of what I consider a bit of over-reaching in the editing. Specifically, and currently, I am referring to the recent thread, "Can I use...

I have three of these scopes with the same MOA-2 reticle, and would like to have one with Duplex. Like new condition, will add pictures. 

I notice that the Fullfield IV, 6-24X scope is side focus, with a minimum range of 10 yards. I'm interested in a 30mm scope, with simple fine duplex reticle and close focus, and this one seems to work. I haven't used a Burris scope in 20 years, but my experience with them is good. If anyone has...

As an old timer, I find many of the new scopes, those with a plethora of reticle variations, virtually useless in the woods, especially under low light. I have a couple of FFP scopes, with MOA hash marks. When using them to range distance on a target, they're great. But put them in the woods at...

I bought this scope recently from another AGN member, you can find his original listing in the Classifieds search. As he stated, the scope is like new. I mounted it and found I don't like the reticle. For me, it's a bit busy for a hunting reticle, but is fine for targets, focuses down to 10...

I just ordered a Sightron S-TAC 4-20X from Amazon, for $299. This is one of my favorite scopes, and this is a great price. So, if it's a scope you like, this is a good buy. 

I have a Royale 400 and love it. If I wanted to tune it down to, say the 12 fpe level, I could back off on the power wheel. But, that doesn't change the reg set point, so it seems to me to be a very inefficient way to detune it. Just wondering, has anyone played with tuning down with a lower reg...

I have an HW 100K in .177. It's a great rifle, and I shoot it a lot in the yard. It's FAC power level, so it's shooting 18-20 fpe, as it should. Since most of it's use is in the yard, I'm considering tuning it down, My question, can it be de-tuned to the 12 fpe level with the current...

I'm not one to post pics of groups, since it's just a picture of unknown origin and integrity. I've not been a fan of the FX liner/sleeve rifles, but love my old Royale 400 with the original, solid ST barrel. I'm not a long distance shooter, mostly 50 yards and under. The Royale has always been...

I have various old tools that were bought by my dad and grandfather. I doubt any are collectible, but I think they are US made, and I use them routinely. These pliers are an example, and are in my range box. There are some markings that might mean something to someone more knowledgeable. If...

I've had only 2 precision quality rifles in .177, and quite a few in .22. Both of the .177 rifles have been considerably more pellet finicky than the .22s. I expect it's just coincidence, but just curious if others have noticed any difference in the effect of pellet selection between these calibers.

I received a new Revere last week in .22. It is shooting very well. I noticed that the barrel shroud is free floated in the barrel ring, so a slight metallic rattle is heard when slightly bumping the rifle. Wanting to check for POI stability, I shot the circled group below, one shot per day for...

I recently received a new Daystate Revere in .22. I've shot a few groups in the yard at 25 yards, killed a couple of squirrels, and it is doing its job admirably. I don't know if I'll ever need to remove the barrel for cleaning, hopefully pull-throughs will suffice. But I like to understand how...

​It seems these three rifles come up rather frequently when a new buyer is considering a rifle in this price range. I am fortunate to own all three in .22, having just bought a Revere. Since one of my first PCP rifles was a Huntsman, I'm comparably familiar with the three platforms. It's too...

These are both product number 214106, APLR2, FFP, IR, MOA. Purchased new, will be sold in box with papers, as-new condition. Can be sold with or without 80mm Scope-Werkes focus wheel. No issues at all, I am replacing with Midas TAC scopes. They are on rifles now, will remove later and furnish...

I have a Royale 400 in .22. It's reasonably quiet, but not as quiet as the other rifles I use in the yard. I've tried adding a silencer using the Donny adapter, but that really screws up the balance, at least for me. So I'm thinking (which is often the first step in making a small problem...

I have a Veteran Standard in .22, and its velocity consistency is excellent. A friend has a new Veteran Long in .25, and all indications suggest he has a reg problem. As a matter of interest, I'm curious, how many folks have had problems with their Taipan regulator? The design and build of the...

I was looking at the published velocity of a .22 Veteran Long, and their site lists "85", that's it, just 85. Anybody know what that means, and how to convert it to FPS.
