    Arken EPL 6-24x50 review

    Now even older but still relevant! I’m looking at this very scope (hunter reticle) to replace a 4-16x44 sfp for hunting and came across your post, would you mind helping me out with a couple of questions? how is the eyebox at higher maginifications? my current scope on 16x is very tight...

    New scope

    Hi all I’m looking for a new scope for my p3 pesting rifle, threw on a 4-16 mtc I had on another rifle, but as that one will have to go back I’m looking for something new for the p3. As this rifle posesses long range capabillities I was thinking about putting a 6-24 ffp on it as shots will...

    Head shot thread

    Did you stew the entire bird or just legs, just breast,…? I have to try that, put it in a pie. Would be a lot easier getting the metal shot out as well with a strong magnet once the meat has stewed down! (many of the birds we take have steel shot in them from botched attempts of other hunters...

    Light vs heavy slug expansion

    Thanks! I’m working with .25, that would be 34 grainers, sadly defeating the purpose… I’ll keep my eyes on them though, thanks! honestly, price is a non- issue as I’m not using them for plinking, I might shoot about 50/60in a good year, a 100 for testing and getting in the groove. plinking is...

    Light vs heavy slug expansion

    Thank you all for your answers! I might have to try some hades ! I’d love to try some lighter slugs to see if they make for an even more humane kill. if the shot is good it’ll meet thin bone on impact so should expand quick and hopefully ensure what I’m looking for, quick and humane pest control...

    Light vs heavy slug expansion

    hey everyone I’m in the beginning stages of my higher power pesting quest and playing around with slugs. I‘m partial to a lighter slug as, according to my logic, they would expand more violently, lose power faster (less chance of harmfull ricochet),… I’m not too worried about range right now...

    Head shot thread

    They are the best eating “goose” there is to most of the guys I know that take them, me included. (Taxonomically they sit between goose and duck) I personally have not plucked one but use the breast for smoking (has a roast-beef quality to it) and save the legs to make rilette, a meat spread for...

    RTI Rti p3 problems…

    What speed are you sending them at those settings(I’m getting 892 rn, shooting 33.95 jsb king )? I’m trying her again saturday and trying a different mag as well. Works perfectly here without ammo or mag in.

    RTI Rti p3 problems…

    Hello everyone I have a problem with my new (less than 70 shots) p3 .25 : started shooting this morning, 3 shots perfectly fine as usual. shot again an hour or so later and shots were lower power, landing 25cm low at 40m. Adjusted power wheel up 2 clicks and down 2 clicks to where it was, shot...

    RTI .25 Rpb barrel preferences

    I love the performance of the king heavies (have not tried the mkII) atm (.3 inch at 50 yards 5 shot group) , at 120-130 (reg is still very new so shifted by itsself from 120 to 130? Very new to pcp’s…) I’m getting 892. Maybe I’ll have a play with the power wheel. ( the guy at the store set it...

    RTI .25 Rpb barrel preferences

    I tested both the .249 nsa 25.9 grain and the fx hybrid 26 grain on my jsb king heavy tune At 50 yards the hybrids showed more potential. I just shot one 3-shot group of each so more shooting to be done but the hybrids were touching (barely) and the nsa’s, though stable, shot about an inch...

    Moderator caliber

    I’m looking at the huma’ 30, just wondering if it would make a big difference in sound if I use the 30 cal one instead of the 25 cal. Mods on airrifles are a serious grey area out here so I’m wanting to make it as close to factory od as possible. The 40 would be quite obviously my first choice...

    Moderator caliber

    Hi all I’m getting a mod for my .25 cal rifle and was told they only have .30 cal in stock. I’ve heard about people buying ”one size up” to avoid baffle strikes etc, but is the difference in sound moderation worth waiting on the correct caliber? I’ve never used a mod before so very curious...

    RTI .25 Rpb barrel preferences

    Hey all I’m about to pull the proverbial trigger on a .25 rti p3. As it will be my first “high power” air rifle I’d love to get some reccomendations on where to start ammo-wise, both pellet and slug. at the moment I’m not planning on tuning it for max-power. Does the rpb barrel prefer slightly...

    RTI P3 owners, I have some questions for you.

    I realise this is an older post but am looking at getting my first rti rn, the shop still has some prophet 2.1 performance models in stock as well as the p3 Performance, it’s a 230 usd difference… is the p3 worth the extra bucks in your opinion? I’m looking at a .25 performance either way...

    RTI Rti p3

    Thank you, it might be worth the drive and the extra bucks then… would you mind describing the tuning process for me? Afaik (only did a basic tune on my leshiy classic), I set the regulator to get a certain speed with the hammer spring adjuster way down. ( rti p3 with the new valve might...

    RTI Rti p3

    thanks for the feedback! How does it compare to an fx-maverick? The vp is about 200 bucks cheaper and a lot more available out here than the rti-models.. (at least 3 hour drive single) vs 30 min. Drive.

    RTI Rti p3

    Hello everyone as the law for the use of airguns in pest control is changing where I live I can no longer use my leshiy classic for legal quarry over 2kg… I was looking at a p3 performance ( only version available) for this. How are people feeling about the .25 and .30 versions for use with...
