    Nice groups with my PCP .177 at 30 yards.....looks like hell at 50 Yards.......

    I appreciate that information. I think I've tried every other type of pellet at 30 yards (only the wad cutters were shooting well at 30) , except domed. Last weekend was my first attempt at a greater distance.

    That's a good suggestion. I'll try some domed pellets. Thanks.

    Nice groups with my PCP .177 at 30 yards.....looks like hell at 50 Yards.......

    I just have an entry level Diana rifle. I've been shooting at 30 yards since I got it. The gun will do 1/2 inch, 5 shot groups. This weekend, I moved out to 50 yards. Very disappointing. Such a mess, I didn't even bother to measure. My gun is unregulated and I'm using 7.7 grain wad cutters...

    Crosman Pellets

    I did get to try that batch of .177's I recently purchased this afternoon. My goodness, they don't like my PCP rifle at all. Getting 5 rounds in a six inch group at 30 yards was a chore. It looked like #2 shot shotgun fire. I understand that different guns like different ammo, but these are NOT...

    Who builds Sig pellets?

    Old thread alert ! I can't answer your manufacturing question, but I just bought some of these and they're shooting quite well in my Diana Stormrider......

    Crosman Pellets

    I was just about to start a thread on Crosman pellets. I just bought a mixture of wad cutters to see what my Diana Stormrider likes. The Crosman, I notice, have a seam. It goes all through the pellet like they were cast with a poorly machined two-piece mold. I figured they weren't even worth...

    Scope Reticle POI changes whenI move my head a little.......

    Here's the scope, a Pinty... I had that outter ring cranked all the way CCW (+) when I started to notice the parrallax. Normally it's about where it sits now. When I was goofing it around, I just thought it was something I had never noticed. I didn't realize that I had just created it.

    Scope Reticle POI changes whenI move my head a little.......

    Thanks guys, I appreciate the info...... I assume the objective is adjustable as I have a plus or minus I can dial around. As a matter of fact, I was screwing with this during this past weekend when I started to notice this issue. I had dialed the objective ring all the way out. Perhaps if I...

    Scope Reticle POI changes whenI move my head a little.......

    What am I seeing here? I noticed last weekend, if I move my head a little, the point of impact will change in my scope. It isn't an expensive 3-9 scope. Is this why people spend big money on optics? This is something I've never noticed before........

    High expectations Re: Accuracy, A hypothetical

    As someone mentioned previously, there are many variables. What came as a surprise to me, years ago, was how critical the pellet is. I was used to, basically ,22 cal. rifles, with chosen ammo making little difference. I grabbed a bunch of different pellets and was shocked when some could barely...

    Does any airgun store in the U.S. have an actual air gun in stock?

    With that Suez canal log jam, things are likely to get worse before they get better.

    Ever Shot a Pest Inside Your Home?

    Many years ago, a friend had squirrels in his attic. I stood up through the cubby-hole with my 22 using BB caps. My friend made chirping noises so the little fellas would pop up to see what the noise was. They popped up and I popped them. We musta bagged 6 or 7. The attic was a mess...
