Broke with tradition and went out this AM (Monday), too late actually got there about 9ish, saw a bunch then they started to disappear, had some youngsters teasing me, my FX compact wasn't playing well with others, it was only 25-30 yards so not a big deal, running off of my tripod 18.3 AEA...

Well close, sort of. :cool: We have a member out in the Fresnoish area, been invited to go out there but.....I'm not dedicated enough to drive out there 2.5 hrs then back to rack up the body count. Hopefully soon someone else in my house will learn to drive so I can kill things instead of...

50m and 3 or so cm of accuracy out of a 15cm or so barrel. THAT I want to see. Note, I'm very loosely converting inches to metric in my head so accuracy tends to go out the window. Note #2, I do have some pistols but I don't use them very much and I'm no expert on the new ones. I trust mine...

You're out around the Fresno area if my old memory serves me right. My Raptor LOVES the AEA 30.2's so I wanted to give it a work out today, it's also fine with the AEA 33.9 pellets. It's normally very windy but as I said, a perfect day.

In my vast minutes of experience, are your speeds consistent? Is any thing loose, beside the wingnut? Scope on tight? Parallax assuming a FFP. Does this happen with anything but my favorite pellets? I've seen that where the bottom left is the first shot and something in the gun just settles...

Thank you, It was absolutely perfect today, zero breeze to swear at, cool air and warm sun. Hoping to get lucky again on Monday. I need larger stickers for my turret or way stronger glasses, new eyes or lenses wouldn't hurt either. Luckily I don' have an issue with the reticles in my Arken's .

Finally, went to my permission and the damn rodents were out, boy were they out. A true target rich environment. Everything from 25 yards to 125 yards. Luckily they'd mowed the weeds at the 125 yards so it was way easier to see the pesky rodents. Today I used my Raptor, 660mm 26in. barrel...

That's pretty much what I'f found, short of being crushed the bend skirts work well, some have said that the air pressure pushes them out in the barrel. I'm tending to believe that.

I've used mothballs and they do work, they are also very toxic in the soil.

You can live trap them you need to enclose all of the sides and leave the ends uncovered, pick them up during the day, they are heavy sleepers. You can relocate them but odds are they'll starve, they are very near sighted.

I'm moderately certain that their definition of 'straight' is significantly different than mine. They MAY be 'straight' prior to the lands being pressed in but I've got serious doubts that tube remains within .001" over 600mm I've rolled mine on a granite counter top, sorry but my certified...

Maverick .25 with a 600mm barrel, quiet enough with a Donny Mod, that nobody hears it 30' away, more than accurate enough at 125 yards. Wind will beat you every time but you stand a chance with the right barrel and slugs, 16:1 twist is good for slugs and pellets. Add a Carbon Fiber sleeve on...

Well this is interesting, you both are in the same state. Not really too far apart, give to take a day.

Thanks for the reply, I'm just looking at it for daylight use only and recording my misses on Ground Squirrels I'm using Arken glass currently and am happy with it but....because my ranges vary from 50 to 125 yards my Zulus is a PIA, so it's on my Sapsan which is 25ish yards only. If the...

Do you have a molecular sieve in the filter loop? OR even two of them, I have one as the 3rd filter, my first filter appears to catch 90+% of the moisture, the second catches the balance, the Sieve is for paranoia.

Accuracy is purely...sort of... a function of not having an excess of air volume, you want enough to get it out of the muzzle and that's it. There is a very sweet spot when the stars align and the birds sing....or die as the case may be.

You might not fry your family but you haven't met mine.

It's California, "thou shalt not defend yourself or your property".

On the leak, if you haven't already, check the fill valve, that little o-ring in there does a lot of work and it's under appreciated. You'll have a replacement in your collection, hopefully they aren't out of date. Now to the shooting, you just proved that FX has a POI shift. /snark

The idiots here think that the Yotes are so cute and cuddly, then then turn around and get upset when Brutus the Chahuahua becomes a snack or Fluffy the cat is MIA. They are getting aggressive in the South West Santa Clara Valley, Campbell, Los Gatos, Saratoga area. I can say that even my .25...
