My HW97, with an opticaly centered scope, shoots low. (See 5 shot group at 30 yards) I have since zeroed my scope to it's max adjustment achieving a 75 yard zero. I have a set of West Hunter rings that are height adjustable, but the ring angle is fixed, so that they don't follow the scope...

As you may allready know, if you raise a ring you change the scope angle in relation to the rings. That concentrates the stress of the scope clamps to the edges rather than an even distribution of the pressure over the inside of the ring. I originally bought these West Hunter adjustable rings...

I had to put a flashligh on my front sight to get it done, but the old guy still has it. Lol "both of us" We grew old together. I raised up the rear sight almost a 16th of an inch, using 8 strokes. JSB 13.73s. I have been wanting to this but I decided not to put the older Streaks (65 & 55) up...

I'm thinking the problem with this valve is that it's either sticking, or the valve spring just needs to be beefed up? That is a carpeted floor by the way. 👍

The rifles have had the pistols jealous, so I did some maintenace. I leveled it, and added some SSP pistol targets. That is the thirty yard backstop. 75 yard backstop next!

Well, no Christmas tree, no kids or Grandkids, the wife’s sleeping, sounds like a good time to have a shoot. I’ll go PCP this morning with the gun that I’ve always wanted to like, but couldn’t, my first PCP, a Beeman Cheif II. The Cheif has been useless, so I pulled the scope from it and put it...

I finally stopped shooting this lil HW30 long enough to pull out the chrony to see how it compares to my 1965 Sheridan, Bluestreak. The HW30 averaged 490 fps, a bit more than the Bluestreak with three strokes at 466fps, and a bit less than the Bluestreak with four stroke.strokes, averaging...

Or do they? 😆 👍

Talking to shooters at the range I find them saying they aim with the dot center. How can you shoot small targets that way? I put the point of impact on top of the dot, and it works well for small targets, like a brass bead on the front sight.

I'm shooting the G2, .22cal today, doing some plinking at 75 yards, and noticed that my accuracy was down, which I confirmed with targets. I noticed that I could clearly see a spiraling pellet path as well. I am still shooting copper clad Baracudas which were accurate a few months ago. I guess...

I'm attempting a sear repair on this guy. It's designed to be able to lock the spring with the stock screw allowing access to the sear. The trigger is stamped tin with a hard metal inseart in the sear area. The stamped metal was bent there causing it not to engage. I hammered it back into shape...

I will do a propper leak test later, but I thought someone who knows these guns may have an idea by its symptoms. It leaks about 50 bar on day one, and is completely empty in a week, reading zero on both guages. Does that offer any clues?

The Louisiana gang in Kentucky, for a great visit, shooting, fine guns and hanging out!

A nearby powder burner club is inviting me out for a look see. Their range is out to 800 yards, and he was explaining his accomplisments, and vision to complete it. He said that members can shoot electronic targets out there. ?? Ok what are electronic targets? He said "basicly," that there are...

This Sheridan is out if North Carolina! I spotted it at a pawn shop, with a pretty low quality photo. Although I don't think it was malicious, it was a bit of a bait, and switch. The photo I was looking at was a pre 65, Bluestreak in nice shape. When I called to ask about the guns particulars...

Some of you may know that I have Gauntlet2 that I have been disapointed with since I've owned it. I have allready returned it, but Umerex was happy with its accuracy, and sent it back to me. I just thought that a rifle aught to be able to out shoot my pistol? To fix my problem I purchased an Fx...

Alright, on y'alls word I added a 2240 to my collection. I found it to be reasonably powerful, and accurate. So here's the but. The sights are aweful, and unable to reach zero. The best zero I can manage is two inches or so to the right. It consistently hits the paddle to the right of the one...

I am just getting into longer range for my rifles, but I've been shooting my pistols at their max range and having lots of fun with them for some time. Although I like to compare the experience with long range rifle shooting, its not exactly the same. I'm not using math or anything like that to...

I purchased a used Crown Mk2 .30 cal, 600 mm barrel, that came with no baffles or anything in the moderator. I don't know the original owner to find out if this was an intentional mod, or an oversight. Should I restore it, replace it, forget about it? Thanks.

I spent a couple days with it this weekend and got it pretty close to zero. I'm shooting 72 yards for now until I get some clearing done. I've had a few different experiences so far. One was that hanging my FX chrony on the berrel affected the POI down about 3/4". So I used a clamp style mic...
