    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...

    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........

    Tuning Diana Stormrider circular magazine constantly jamming.....

    A fairly new gun for me. The first hundred or two shots went through the magazine just fine, now it constantly jams. The gun only likes wad cutters, so that's what I'm using. I've tried Daisy, Rws 7.0gr, and Rws 7.0gr Match. It looks like the tip of the pellet is dropping or tilting. When I...

    Air pistol target from 'Commercial Row' at the Camp Perry National Championships

    I know, I know, it's just a target with a hole in it. The story is the venue. My dad was world class hand gun competitor and attended the national championships for many years. He was the civilian .22 caliber champion in 1971 and 1972. He was also the New York state pistol champion, indoor and...

    Does anyone have a source for tall dovetail quick release 1 inch scope mounts ?

    I just can't seem to find a pair. I tried tall Weavers with spring-loaded dovetail inserts, but the quick release won't clasp tight enough. Sheesh, I've been chasing this scope project for some time...... Thanks for looking !

    Best 'O' Ring assortment ?......If there is such a thing.....

    I was just thinking it would be a good idea to have an O-ring kit. What should I look at ? All I have is a Feinwerkbau Model 2, an FAS 604, a Gamo 440 and a Chinese Diana Stormrider. Do I need metric rings ? There are quite a few different kits on ebay.....

    Neat carry case for my G9 hand pump.......

    This pump always ended up on the floor of the car and I always worry about it getting hurt. I found this UTG 25 inch case on Amazon. The pump lives in the center compartment and the side compartment can hold other useful stuff.

    Are there 'liquid' CO2 and 'gas' CO2 cylinders (tanks)?

    I inherited my dad's FWB CO2 handgun. His CO2 tank was empty. I took the tank to Airgas and exchanged it. The certification on his tank was expired and they charged me 41 dollars to re-certify THAT tank and gave me an exchange for another 17 dollars. I couldn't fill the cylinders for this gun...

    How much pressure is suitable for storage ?

    Hi folks, I'm fairly new to PCP. I know when you put the gun away you should leave something in the tank. Full tank, half tank.....1/4 ? Or doesn't it matter as long as there's SOMETHING ? My max pressure is 20 bar.

    Should I expect better accuracy with a Gamo Hunter 440 ? (2nd. Update 11/30/20)

    I just put a scope on my Gamo. At 25 yards, resting on a bag, it seems like I can't do better than 5 or 6 inch groups. Is it a measure of the gun, or the specific pellet ?

    Can oxidized pellets be rescued ?

    I've come across a few tins of RWS match .177 pellets. They have oxidized and show that white powder. Just dump them, or can they be saved ?

    Need repair help for my air pistol. Domino FAS 604

    Hello folks, I'm new to the forum and this is my first post. Can anyone recommend a shop or individual that can rebuild (o-ring replacement) my FAS 604 pistol. It used to be a great shooter, but has sat for many years, much to the detriment of the o-ring seals. Thank you for your help ! Paul
