    Patch Worm

    Disregard. I had a bad email address for him. Found the right email and he got back to me almost immediately. Shipping delays are squarely on USPS.

    Patch Worm

    Is Patch Worm still in business? I purchased a cleaning kit, but still haven't received it and my email inquiries have gone unanswered. Are there other recommended cleaning kits?

    0.22 cal hunting pellet for HW95

    My HW95 Field Pro should be arriving soon. I've read that every barrel is a bit different and has it's own 'preferences' for pellets, but could someone suggest a couple 0.22 cal pellets for hunting with said rifle? Thanks!

    HW95L Field Pro vs. Beeman R9 Elite Combo

    I apologize if this is a dumb question, but beyond the slight difference in price between these two, is there a compelling reason to choose one versus the other? (assuming I'm looking at a 0.22 cal in each)

    Choosing a HW

    That's interesting. I assume Weihrauch makes the barrels for the 0.22? Why would the barrel accuracy on the 0.22 be less consistent than the 0.177?

    Choosing a HW

    So I've settled on getting a springer and specifically, a Weihrauch. Now it's just a matter of which one. My intended use is primarily for pest elimination anywhere from 10-30 yards (sparrows, tree rats, the rare groundhog that ventures too close to the veggie garden). I live in a...

    Springer for learning

    I'm a complete novice when it comes to air rifles but done a fair amount of reading re: artillery hold, pellet preference of rifles, scope adjustment, etc. With what seems like so many variables which affect accuracy, I'm trying to maximize my chances of having some success and not getting...

    Forgive my ignorance, but what is a 'Prod'?

    Quietest PCP under $400?

    I need to dispatch some pest squirrels from my yard and don't want to disturb the neighbors. In the sub $400 range, which rifle is considered the quietest? Benjamin Fortitude?

    Sometimes things work out

    Thanks everyone. You were right...the gun was dieseling. Smelled like I was behind a truck for a while, but it's quieted down substantially. I appreciate all the responses.

    Sometimes things work out

    Currently using the Crosman Premier Hollow Point. Is there a heavier one you would recommend?

    Sometimes things work out

    Got out of work a bit early today and put a few pellets through the rifle. This thing is LOUD. Sounds like my 0.22 rifle going off. I'm going to have to find a way to quiet this down or I'm going to attract a bunch of attention from the neighborhood.

    Sometimes things work out

    Thanks to everyone for the input! And a special thanks to oldspook for putting together such a comprehensive guide to entry level springers. I'm itching to get outside and shoot this thing, but waiting for it to quit raining.

    Sometimes things work out

    I've been trying to decide (read "obsessing over") which air rifle to purchase as my first...(see my previous thread), and today my brother gives me his essentially BNIB Ruger Black Hawk 0.177. Did a little research, and seems that it is a Chinese made clone of the RWS 34. But it's free, so I...

    Choosing my first

    I like the idea of having threads present to easily install a moderator. Can either the Diana 34 or HW95 be retrofitted with a moderator? Can barrels be 'threaded' after the fact?

    First, a big Thank You in advance to all advice offered. I know the "help me choose a gun" threads are quite common, and probably get a bit tiresome, but please, Help me choose a gun! 😉 I've been doing a lot of research, learned a bunch, but all the information gets overwhelming for a noob. ...
