Go UConn !! Class of 1983 - it was a very good year !! -Ed

Those of you that have owned a Dreamline and a Crown Mk 2 at the same time know that you can use your Dreamline barrels in your Crown - they just look a little “skinny” in the Crown. Bullet Central sells a Carbon Fiber shroud in 500, 600 and 700mm lengths. This shroud lets you slide your...

Hi AGNers, I was reading in the Shooting Tips forum on this site and saw this: 1- Proper Grip: The first step to the trigger finger being able to properly pull the trigger is to ensure that the grip on the rifle or pistol is correct. For rifles this means that the trigger hand is firmly...

Temps are getting cold in Connecticut, so I thought I’d “winterize” my Prophet by swapping the .25 LR barrel for my .177 barrel. I won’t be shooting and walking my brother’s 100 yard range in the winter - so I figured it was a good time to switch to my favorite backyard caliber. Swap took less...

Had today off from work - beautiful day in mid 70s (!) in Connecticut - so I played … I had created a “40 Yard Challenge” target card. Tried it with my RTI Prophet Performance V1 .22 LR - set a new personal best. My Prophet .22 was tuned for 100 yards - shooting 25.4g MRDs at 912fps. Since...

I thought you folks might find this interesting… recent results shooting the 30 Yard Challenge in the Target Shooting forum… Yesterday I broke out my 1st air rifle, a Gen 1 Umarex Gauntlet .177 . I had not shot it in about 8 months (always holds air, lol). I put a newly acquired Sightron SII...

I had not shot my .177 Akela in weeks…. was texting with a friend who also has one… motivated me to pick it up… ….but a storm was rolling in. Set up a 30 Yard Challenge card anyways… 3 shots to zero with new tin of 10.3g FX pellets… … shot a 190 7X… no sighters - 24 straight shots from the...

Has anyone here on AGN disassembled a Wolverine trigger in order to polish compoonents? Any steps guides, photos, things to watch out would be appreciated. Thanks, Ed

Quick FX question… Can you use a Crown superlight barrel kit in a Dreamline Classic? -Ed

So you want a .177 Cayden… and they only come in .22… I recently bought this Reximex Daystar .177 from an AGN member via the classifieds here. It is essentially a Benjamin Cayden .177 – with a nicer shaped stock than a Cayden, IMHO. It was bought for his wife, owned briefly and sold to me – she...

100 Yard Sight In day…

So you wanna shoot your air rifle 100 yards…? I thought that I’d share my story of how I did this for the 1sttime this past Friday. I apologize for the long story, but I wanted to journal this for myself – so I can look back on it as I get better… Background: I’ve been shooting airguns for...

I thought you fellow HW110 owners would enjoy the results of my experiment tonight. My HW110 .22 caliber started life as a “FAC” full power model with 30ft/lb hammer spring shuttle and 600mm barrel. The factory regulator setting was 150 bar. I’ve since tuned it down by installing the 410mm...

I took the shroud off the barrel of my Wolverine R HP .22 and noticed the end of the barrel is threaded. The diameter across the threads is about 13.8mm. QUESTION: Is this M14x1.25 ? It would be great to know the thread size. I’d like to use the threads to attach a moderator to the bare...

Just wanted to share this info for those RTI Prophet Performance V1 owners that want a smoother cocking experience… Especially for .177 shooters….but probably great for .22 as well (I’ll test soon). [edit: I tested today - it worked great in my .22 LR Prophet v1 - I can easily get 960+ fps with...

This is stuff that has impressive build quality, reasonable cost and has helped my shooting from the bench… Clamp Saddle Tripod Mount for Shooting,ARCA/RRS Quick Release Plate Hunting Rest Enchance Your Accuracy, Hunting Gear Clamp for Tripod Ball Head Mount,Hunting Saddle,Tripod Rest...

Recently bought a Daystate Wolverine R HP .22 off a forum member. He had less than 100 rounds through it. I got it out for a little pellet testing today. This thing has a pretty hot tune from the factory: 893-896 fps - JSB MRD 25g 970-972 fps - H&N Baracuda Match 21g 1020-1023 fps - JSB 18g...

I’ve got a HW110 .22 that I’ve tuned down. It was originally “FAC” - about 29 ft/lbs with JSB 18.13g. I dropped regulator pressure to 112 bar and replaced hammer spring shuttle with lighter UK spec shuttle. I’m now getting well over 100 shots on a fill at 680-700 fps with 14.3g. However, it...

So how far can you optimize an Akela using all stock parts…? On another forum (GTA) I was the originator of cutting the stock 3.5” hammer spring down to 2.57” on the .177 Akela. That spring length worked so well that I never optimized further. Lately I polished most every part in my Akela...

I’ve got a Cayden .22 and Akela .177. I bought these inexpensive rifles to tear them apart and learn “airgunsmithing”, lol. I’ve refinished the stocks in TruOil and did massive testing of optimizing hammer spring lengths. I previously did a trigger polishing on the Cayden - I got it breaking...
