    RTI Reducing FPS (on RTI Priest -> Prophet conversion)

    I've got a .22 RTI Priest to Prophet Conversion that's slinging pellets a lil' fast (920 FPS at 90 on the reg), resulting in lighter pellets becoming unstable & spiraling. Here's the question - what's the most air-efficient way to reduce the FPS? I'm going for a low-power tune to minimize pass...

    Is there a term for this "click consistent" sweet spot between the near & far zeroes?

    Most of my targets are in the 28-40 yard range. Hawke Chairgun shows that a JSB 15.9 Diabolo with Near Zero set at 32 yards gives a relatively flat trajectory (within about a quarter inch) for the 22-40 yard range. (Right image) I believe this is called an "Optimum Zero Range" (Hawke Chairgun)...

I reported the post, asking the...

    Miami Beach Iguana Removal Budget Quadrupled to $200k

    The City of Miami Beach Commission quadrupled their iguana removal budget from $50k to $200k. The City of Miami Beach is even looking into putting a bounty on them; they're apparently forming an ad hoc group that'll be taking bids. (This isn't for all of Miami - never mind the state) YouTube...

    Iguana: Minimum Acceptable Caliber, FPE & Kill Zone

    Airgun Depot outlined the minimum acceptable caliber, FPE & kill zones for various game nearly 8 years ago, but it doesn't include iguanas. It would seem obvious that minimums increase with the size of the iguana and that shot placement is key. My opinion is that a .22 would be the minimum...

    Dual/External Regulator & Adjusting Reg Pressure

    After completing a bottle mod with an additional external regulator on a .25 Air Venturi Avenger, could the bottle then be removed without purging all the air from it? I understand that the high-pressure air left in the gun would still need to be bled out the typical way, but I'd like to...
