    What am I doing wrong?

    Scope mounts are/were tight and secure. I pushed, pulled and twisted the barrel as directed and I did not detect any movement where the barrel mounts to the action. BUT... the following 10 groups were shot and POI adjusted by pushing the barrel in one direction or another. I very purposely...

    What am I doing wrong?

    1.) I refill to around 200 bar every fill and get 30 good shots. The first 5 shots on a fill often shoot a slightly looser group. This isn't a loose group. This is POI shift. Note the center row in my photo where I zeroed the scope. Each 2 shot group was pellet on pellet. I was aiming at...

    What am I doing wrong?

    I have the Gamo Urban 22 mounted with a Hawke Vantage IR 4-12 x 50 scope. My back yard range has the shooting bench inside my tool shed with target stands built at 15, 25, and 50 yards. The gun is a great shooter, but every time I take it out back for some shooting fun, I have to start the...

    Gamo Urban 22

    mwils111... Total PCP newbie here. I have no clue what these things are, but they sound really cool! Baffle core... new, quieter internals for the silencer? Who makes them for the Urban 22? Altaros reg... ok, I get this one, but will need a lot of research to figure out which reg and how to...

    Gamo Urban 22

    I got a new Gamo Urban 22 a couple weeks ago and I think I finally have it dialed in. The bore was full of crud and took a whole evening to get clean. I finished with a light coat of Renaissance wax and mounted a Hawke 4-12 X 50 AO. For the first week I was busy experimenting with different...

    Is Lead A Serious Concern For Children? Is Plastic An Option?

    Please stress to the kids the importance of: 1.) keeping fingers out of their mouths and off their faces after handling lead pellets, AND 2.) practicing proper hand washing after handling lead. Lead will build up over time in the body. Safe handling each and every time is critical.

    Sorting Pellets: Methodology?

    I jumped into PCP airguns a couple months ago and have reached that point where I want to squeeze as much accuracy as possible out of my rifles. I've heard mention of sorting or culling pellets and want to give it a shot. I know to pull out all damaged pellets first and have heard mention of...

    Suppressed and Unimpressed

    I will be out of commission until the middle of next week. Removing the factory shroud makes perfect sense. I had never given that a thought because #1, PCP airguns are new to me, I have almost 2 weeks experience, and #2, I saw the "Hatsan QE 1/2 x 20 UNF Adapter #A24" and ordered the QE...

    Suppressed and Unimpressed

    Well, my Ronin silencer arrived today. After a 20 round test run, I'm quite underwhelmed. I've been spending time in the back yard painting my shed, and the Hatsan BT65 is on a rifle rest pointing at my 25 yard target area. Today's diversion was to take a shot or two at a softball laying on...

    Hatsan BT65 & Straight Shooters Pellet Sampler

    My first-ever PCP is a used Hatsan BT65 QE I found in the classified ads in this forum. It arrived yesterday. I also received a Yong Heng compressor and a pellet sample pack from Straight Shooters. All together, these items made for a relaxing afternoon in the back yard. After sighting in, I...

    Used 60 Min. SCBA Inbound.

    Without doing the math, I kinda knew that, but other factors are at play. I don't even have a PCP airgun yet, although I have one incoming that should arrive next week. In the past 4 days I found a great deal on a Hatsan rifle, bought and received a Yong Heng compressor, a hand pump, and some...
