    Quietest - .22 or .177?

    Let's assume the same model air rifle (a Weirauch HW110, specifically), same length, same moderator, etc. - is one caliber going to be quiter than the other? I'm guessing maybe it's not perceptible. What say y'all?

    What's the fascination with "slugs"?

    Forgive my ignorance, but I'm just wondering why so many folks discuss shooting/tuning slugs. What's the appeal over plain-ol' pellets?

    Sight-in choices?

    How do you prefer to sight-in (i.e. "zero") your air rifles? Do you try to 1) optimize your maximum point blank range or 2) zero at the distance you most often shoot at and then dial/click or use mil-dot ranging for other distances? I optimize my MPBR on powder burning rifles, but haven't yet...

    Prismatic scopes for short ranges?

    Would a prismatic scope such as a 5X by Immersive Optics be suitable for shorter ranges like 5-25 yards? And, would a mil-dot reticle even be useful at those ranges?

    Small(ish) scope with side focus and MIL/MOA reticle?

    I'm looking for a scope with side focus and a Mil-Dot or MOA reticle for my Daystate Huntsman Revere. I would like to put the smallest scope on it that I can in keeping with the sveltness of the Huntsman. I currently have a Leupold 4X rimfire scope on it, but I'm not satisfied with the lack of...

    It's a MAGAZINE

    Not a clip! It's driving me crazy - why do the majority of airgun shooters refer to rifle magazines as "clips"? Misuse of those two words will almost result in being tarred and feathered in powder-burning gun circles. Please use the correct terminology - if for nothing else than to save my...

    Air Arms S510 Stealth Carbine - anyone?

    Does anyone here have the Air Arms S510 Stealth Carbine? It's on my short list of my next purchase, along with the Daystate Huntsman Revere. My question is is the moderator that comes with it removable? I have a hard time thinking of how to clean the barrel properly if it's not. You certainly...

    .177 vs .22 practical trajectory?

    I asked this question as part of another discussion, but I thought I would post it as a separate topic since it may be useful to others not participating in that particular thread. Anyway, what is the difference in trajectory between .177 and .22 out to a distance of 50 yards max? I...

    Tuning Daystate Huntsman Revere - tuning?

    Does anyone know if the Daystate Huntsman Revere in.22 can be tuned down a bit so that it is not so loud? I understand that it is somewhat backyard friendly with a moderator attached, but I'm wondering if it were downtuned to something like 20 fpe or less it would likely be even quieter. So...

    Shrouded vs. moderator?

    What are the benefits of a shrouded barrel (Mrod, FX Dreamline, etc.) vs. a barrel with a moderator on it (Weihrauch HW100/110, Diana Stormrider, etc.)? I'm sure there are advantages and disadvantages of each - but I don't know what they are.
