    Underlevers: Kral N-08 vs. Chinese QB36-2 (Haemmerli 900): any good ?

    I want an underlever springer to achieve PCP accuracy for hunting, but without the cost and pumping hassle. Unable to find any meaningful reviews on the cheapo Kral N-08. All I know is that I have been positively surprised, many times over, by the impressive build + accuracy of the more...

    A 2-question poll for PCPers

    We all know that PCPs are complex, and relatively expensive, guns. For raw power, look elsewhere. They are fickle as well, and lend themselves to tuning. Frustration comes with the territory. So does satisfaction from great improvement achieved, often turning cheapo guns into smooth shooters...

    Slugs: H&N Grizzly lovers ?

    The Grizzlies are much lower cost than most slugs. Which guns shoot them (very) well, in either .25 or .22 ? My suggestion based on experience: the attractively priced Hatsan Flash Pup. My .25 delivers 1.5 inch groups at 50 yards. More suggestions ?

    Tuning Pros and Cons of SSGs ?

    I think I understand the pros of a Spring Stop Guide (SSG). It increases the accuracy of the hammer spring preload and stops the hammer from hitting the valve stem too hard. More important, it stops the hammer spring from bouncing, thus eliminating the ping-pong contest with the valve spring...
