Within the niche that is prevalent in this forum FX is popular. In other niches they rarely figure.

O-rings, although very few. Not so much a spare - but barrel cleaning kit and oil to rub the gun down with.

Shelled?

Brilliant, but just a little disturbing

"Perceived value or worth". Which has little to do with what the item costs to supply, but everything to do with how much will be paid by the buyer. After all, don't we all strive to get the maximum for our employment or items we are selling on?

"I enjoy it!"


The controlling factor seems to be the programme using the 'zero' as a fixed datum rather than allowing it to be a reactive output.


I do weigh my pellets and select a single weight (+/- 0.1%). I have also noted when doing this that it is rare to get head size variation in single weight pellets. I like to understand the theory and maths behind the empirical data. 

There's a lot about the Smoothtwist that I'm not familiar with (just as soon as I can afford it I will buy one as they seem interesting). I interpret the "outer edge of the crown" to mean a part of the barrel that does not contact the pellet, in which case is it not logical to think no contact =...

I have been pondering the POI change due to the slight variation in pellet weight within a tin. I cannot see how to get Chairgun to calculate this, any ideas? I suspect the change in POI will only be a few 'thou', but I would like to know.

ncstan, aside your penultimate sentence, you make a very good point.

That's a very interesting anomaly, hopefully Coldking or CampFussell will offer some perspective.

No, I don't think you are too demanding in expecting a modern day (presumably you are talking PCP) rifle to group tightly at 50yds. But what is the importer/distributor claiming the 5-shot target demonstrates? Are they 'certifying' the gun, or offering it as proof of quality/accuracy? Or just...

What are you aiming at on paper - a dot, a cross, a circle? How are you aiming at it - centred, bracketing? I obviously can't be sure, but maybe it is something to do with how you are seeing the target. How about shooting at an actual size picture of your metal target.

This just an opinion, but then so are most other posts. Without a doubt the air rifle plays a part, it would be indefensible to claim an oversize barrel the pellet rattles down has no effect. Yes, we have seen a certain type/weight/head size of pellet is important. Nor should we ignore the...

The advice I followed with the hammer was to polish the rod the hammer slid on. The surface finish achieved with 1000 grit is quite rough. I used a car paint cutting compound, following by Autosol metal polish and a good clean afterwards to remove all residue. I thought about using a spray of...

A member at the club has a TX200 SR. The action recoils but it moves on a sled in the stock isolating the shooter. It is like shooting a PCP and somewhat befuddling at first as you are expecting the springer recoil. Impressed is an understatement, I am looking out for a perfect example.

I continue to use mine. It takes some time to get through a tin of pellets. As I also weigh the pellets, which is considerably quicker and easier, I only size the 'selected weight' pellets, thereby reducing the number I size. An observation I have made is that head size variation in a single...

I am unable to measure the 'pressure', what I can comment on is the effect on fps. My 12fpe Air Arms S400 had the typical unreg'd increase in fps before decay. After some fettlng (tuning?) the 'sweet spot' was about 35 shots (a pressure spread of about 70bar) with an ES of 10-12 fps. After...

james.dean, I have shared my very favourable experience with a Lane regulator. So we can benefit from your knowledge of the Huma please update us with your experience of installation, use, results on fps consistency and air consumption. I have used an Altaros regulator before - very easy to...
