    Inaugural outing with Walther Parrus .22

    I bought mine fromAirgunDepot.com for $270 shipped with a 10% off coupon they sent in an email. The scope came fromAmazon for $62 shipped. You should be be able to find at least a 10% coupon code online to save some bucks. I saved the local 8% sales tax by buying it from AGD, even though...

    Benjamin Trail Hunting

    H&N Field Target Trophy 14.66 gr. Also like the JSB Exact Jumbo 15.89 as well. They are VERY accurate in the Benji's for me "]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v664/flyfishohio/Gun%20stuff/Harvest%202015/image_2.jpeg[/IMG][/url]

    what fails first on a stock 1322

    Keep one pump of air on the gun when finished shooting. This extends the life of the seals. You will wear out before you wear out the pistol. LOL!

    How to sight in a break barrel air rifle.

    Go buy a tube of Loctite blue (or equivalent). Remove the three stock screw (two front and one behind the trigger), and wash them in alcohol or lacquer thinner to remove any manufacturing oils. Apply a drop or two of Loctite and reinstall the screws, seating them snugly. Do the same thing with...

    FORUM vs. FORUM

    I'm on a couple of air gun forums, and I just talk Airguns. If I want to talk about politics, religion or other mindless topics, I go elsewhere. When the mud gets too sticky, I walk away for awhile and go into my other hobbies of fly fishing, ham radio, woodworking or a few other interests I...

    scope

    I bought the CenterPoint 4-16x40AO from Wal-Mart for $69 plus tax, and it's on my Hatsan 95 vortex. .25 cal sitting on an Instapark 5-screw one-piece base from Amazon. I've put about 100 pellets through it, and it's holding up nicely. I've had good luck with the CenterPoint scopes, and they...

    Hatsan 95 Vortex

    Im taking my Hatsan 95 Vortex .22 out for some squirrel action tomorrow, so I compared the CPHP pellets to the H&N FIeld Target Trophy with the following results. Guess which pellet will be taken in the morning? LOL Here is some Chronograph data I've charted comparing three .22 cal guns I...

    Best Beginer Airgun

    I have all three caliber of the Hatsan 95 Vortex. Couldn't be more pleased for the price. Midwestusa.com has them all for $149.99 now. No telling what they will be on Black Friday. I use the .25 for squirrel hunting, and it does a dandy job. Very accurate right out of the box. It's a crapshoot...

    Hatsan 95 Vortex

    I like the H&N Field Target Trophy 19.91gr (top target) and the H&N Baracuda 31.02gr pellets (lower target). Both are 5-shot groups. This target was from a couple of days ago in my basement range at 38'. My Hatsan 95 Vortex .25 cal gun was broken in with H&N pellets, and and hasn't seen anything...

    Hi! Looking for advice for a rifle.

    I own the Benjamin Trail NP in .22 cal. It's a great shooting rifle. I have some chronograph data for you to review to compare the Trail NP to a couple of other air guns. My Trail NP is in the shop for a new piston right now, but Crosman is outstanding about service on their air guns. [/url][/IMG]

    Welcome to AIRGUN NATION - please introduce yourself here!

    Greetings everyone. I'm a 65 year young lifelong firearms guy, and have had pellet guns since I was a kid, but until recently, they were cheap .177 cal break barrels. Back in August I bought my first "big boy" air gun, and now own 5 of them...all three Hatsan 95 Vortex calibers, a Benjamin...

    Hatsan 95 Vortex in .25. Update with pic.

    I own all three of the Hatsan 95 Vortex guns, and hunt with the .25 because of how flat and consistent it shoots. I group 1/2" 5-shot groups consistently using the 31.02 gr H&N Baracuda pellet. The H&N Field Target Trophy 19.91 gr pellet groups 3/4"-1". This is on my 10m basement range. Here is...
