    Hawk 3-12X Vantage

    I had one on my 1720T but switched it out for 4-14X Sidewinder that wasn’t doing anything with the idea I would only shoot it at 12X for Pistol FT. I saw that most, if not all shooters at Morro Bay last week were shooting 12X scopes, I figured I had better put the Vantage back on. I did and...

    Playing Around With the Gen I

    Scott (motorhead) put a HUMA regulator in the Gen I many years ago. Of course, after doing that, the gauge only shows the regulator set point. HUMA came out with a Quick Fill Adaptor that replaces the fill port on the Marauders. It has a gauge that reads in BAR. You have to use a probe. I put...

    She Was Just Cruising For a Bruising

    Checking the Gen I .22

    Everybody is in San Luis Obispo this weekend so I have time to check the Gen I .22 Marauder. I had a tack driving Gen I .22 a few years ago and sold it to get into FT shooting. (Shouldn’t have.) The one I have now, I bought as a rifled action (without stock). I could easily see it was not...

    Time Marches On

    Turned 76 last Tuesday. Saw the quack yesterday. In addition to my High Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure and Type II Diabetes, now he is talking about reduced liver function, restricted abdominal aorta and possible blood clots in the legs. He also mentioned something about a echo cardiograph...

    What the Hell?

    Last Sunday we had our monthly FT match at Bay Point in Concord, CA. Yesterday we were shooting there on our weekly Wednesday airgun practice session. The range had not been used between the two days. While there, I was shooting at the far left side of the range and found a pellet, I have no...

    Tuning Teardown for the Gen I .22

    A couple of months ago I bought a used gauge port HUMA regulator for the Marauder. I put it in the .22 and, until I put the new scope on yesterday, I never fooled with it. I filled the rifle and started shooting. The gun came off of the regulator at shot #22 clearly indicating it needs a...

    TX200 @ 10 Yards

    I try and shoot field target (Hunter) twice a month. On alternating months I shoot the Gen I Marauder and the TX200. In May I did pretty well (for me) with the Marauder so June will be for the TX200. I do not shoot in the kneeling positions and elect to shoot the forced positions offhand. I...

    Memories

    A couple of months ago I found my old P-38 can opener. They used to come along with the surplus World War II C-Rations. Those of us who could not make it to the Chow Hall, were issued during them during our Southeast Asia (RVN) vacation. I was there in 1968 and 1969. No-we were not deployed...

    A New Toy For the Ol’ Man

    I shot one of these many years ago in Doc Beeman’s store. I think he called it the Beeman 850. But it is a Diana 6M. Duckfish had me shoot his last week at the Diablo Silly Wet Match. This one came today. Not a scratch. Not a blemish. It cocks like a new one. I will check the speed very...
