    Ranging Game

    For the people using parallax to range, how long does the whole process take you to be accurate with it? 5-10 seconds? Longer? I've never had a scope with side focus before so I don't know.

    Ranging Game

    How do you guys range your target? I have a laser range finder that I typically carry with me but I'm interested in finding other, possibly better ways. Maybe some of you carry your range finder differently, perhaps a more efficient way (idk?). I'm kind of interested in how they do it for field...

    Marauder modifications

    Ive been looking into getting an Airgun Revisions .25 marauder. The guy putting these together seems to be the best and for $499 I don't think I could even come close to what he does to these.

    Marauder modifications

    Im looking at buying a Benjamin gun, most likely a Marauder but the Akela is appealing also. People talk a lot about adjusting hammers and installing regulators and so on. What have you guys done to yours? If I did buy one what should be first on the list to change? What can I change to make it...

    Atomic XR, Year One…

    I used to not like these types of little guns but seeing everyone on here using them has changed my mind. They're really starting to grow on me. I like the idea of just having a nice and little gun as a woods walker or for around the house shooting. 6 months ago I would never even think about...

    3x custom Styer LP1 pistols.

    Wow those are good looking guns. They kind of remind me of Han Solos DL-44 pistol.

    Next gun on the list ?

    Ive been really close to buying an Airacuda max in .25, but then i looked it up on here. Im glad I didnt buy it yet. It seems like its got a lot of QC and design issues right now. From what Ive read a lot of guys are having to mod themselves it in some way just to make it shoot right.

    Don't wanna toot my own horn!

    No, I get it. .17 is moving at about 2550 at the muzzle. This means 245 fpe that a 17 grain at the muzzle and about half that at 50 yards. I just figured a .30 delivering 65 fpe at 50 yards would be pretty destructive given the large diameter. Idk, I guess I might just be overestimating what the...

    Don't wanna toot my own horn!

    I know velocity is the biggest factor here but I just imagined all the fpe that a .30 carries would possibly do something similar.

    Don't wanna toot my own horn!

    What does a .30 cal do to a squirrels head? I'm surprised it's still attached. I remember I once took a 17hmr squirrel hunting, way too powerful. I only ever shot one with it and decided to move back to a .22 lr. I would imagine a .30 would be about the same right?

    Slugs in a regular barrel

    So I've been looking around trying to find some slugs that might do well im my Beeman Commander. It's a pretty cheap gun but I'd like to make them work and fool around with them if I can. Im aware of barrel diameters and slug weights and that guns can be super picky. From what I've seen Fx...

    Current scope(s), Next scope, and Dream scope???

    I have a Hawke Vantage 3-9×50. It's been on 4 centerfire rifles and now rests on my beeman commander. (Hopefully not for too much longer) I've shot with some wicked nice scopes before but I feel like once you start getting above a certain price point theres just too much diminishing return to...

    Looking to upgrade

    I'm not too worried about a compressor or an optic, and ammo is just an assumed cost with the hobby. I already have a hand pump that I use and don't mind and I have an optic that is much nicer than the gun that it is currently on. Aside from that my main use for the gun would be hunting/posting...

    Looking to upgrade

    Im limited mostly by funding really. I dont have thousands to dump into several guns right now and would like something that can be tuned low to shoot quiet and easy inside a backyard or really strech its legs on some of the nearby farms. Or maybe change calibers or pellet type for cheaper than...

    Looking to upgrade

    I have been shooting airguns as long as I could remember. I started with a simple gamo springer in .177, then a crosman in .22. I never graduated away from springers until I was moved out and living on my own. I bought a Beeman commander in .22 about a year ago. Im now looking to upgrade to some...
