    Tuning Does size matter (moderators)?

    Thanks for your replies. First, I want to say that there does not appear to be any clipping on the moderator. It would be strange if my .30 did not clip but a much smaller round did clip. Regardless there seems to be zero indication of that. My original assumption was that a 30 caliber hole...

    Tuning Does size matter (moderators)?

    This may be a dumb question so forgive me. Let's just say I have a .30 cal rig setup with a moderator specifically bought with and for the .30 cal. Months later I decide I don't need that much power and get a.177 barrell. I use the same moderator but noticed groups are speratic where they were...

    Hunter Class - new shooter on a budget.

    @gfhickman I'm also looking to get into FT and have posted a question that got buzz stirring and for me to get worked up. Nevermind that. I had an UTG 4-16 scope on my M3 for backyard plinking and it did the job. While looking into HFT and reading so much about the focus (parallax) wheel I...

    Why aren't there more M3's in HFT?

    I'll get in contact with you over the next few days. Let me get my new barrel and scope on. I appreciate the help. Also the comments from everyone. It's always good to hear other opinions. I didn't mean to offend anyone with the ashamed comment. Sorry again if I ruffled feathers.

    Bipods/Rests BOG field pod

    Anyone interested? Make me a reasonable offer. They go anywhere from $85-$120. It's like new and only used a few times.

    Why aren't there more M3's in HFT?

    I do have a Beeman P17 I bought on Amazon for a few bucks. It's very accurate for what it is. Should I get into pistol FT instead? 😆😆😆

    Why aren't there more M3's in HFT?

    Thanks for that. Again, I apologize if I took the comments the wrong way. It just seemed that people were saying, this is me loosely, "the M3 is a bad choice. Go with something else". I think people missed; that is what I have and I don't have another 3k to drop on a pellet gun. My wife is...

    Why aren't there more M3's in HFT?

    I know the .30 is not used. In my original post I started, I bought a . 177 kit and was wondering and worrying I would regret it. BTW I just got it today, put the CF sleeve on it. Tomorrow I will take the entire valve assembly apart and make the "fix" and put in the new barrel. Maybe it will...

    Why aren't there more M3's in HFT?

    I knew my original question would be stirring up a s*** show. From the research that I've been able to do, with a few helpful comments from you guys, it appears that the M3's flaw is in the cold shot. I'm not going to get into it here but there is a 40 page thread on the flaw and how to fix it...

    Why aren't there more M3's in HFT?

    Forgive my lack of expertise and experience but if huma regs are better wouldn't it make sense to replace the stock regs? In theory that would make for a better rifle and better at shooting cold. Has anyone replaced the stock regs and had better results? Regardless, I feel that the "cold bore"...

    Why aren't there more M3's in HFT?

    That does make sense. That was the first good answer. I do have to dry fire about 10 rounds before I can even start shooting at targets.

    Why aren't there more M3's in HFT?

    Here's the thing. At least in my .30 cal I'm stacking pellets. How is that not accurate or consistent?

    Why aren't there more M3's in HFT?

    I have been looking at this subject for a while and cannot find anything or anyone that can give a solid answer. I've looked through the results posts and it appears that Palmyra indoor FT has a few people that shoot M3's, but that seems to be it. I'm kinda stumped. I have an M3 in .30 and I can...

    PCP Rifle SYNROD 2nd Gen .25 cal $300 TYD unitl 9/30

    You get all that's in the pics. Thousand+ rounds, 3 mags, single shot tray, pitney scope (illuminated), hard case. It is in great condition. If there are any scratches you couldn't pick them out. I also have the end caps for the scope. Tuned and ready to go for >5/8" groups 8 shots at 25yds. See...

    Shooting for score is so much more stressful than just shooting groups

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that since I can shoot great groups I can become the next BR champion. It is a world of difference. After shooting my first card I was pretty disappointed. However, I will accept this new challenge and try to learn from everyone and everything. Thanks for...

    FX Impact barrel cleaning. Which direction?

    Thanks everyone. I guess I overthink things sometimes. I shot this morning and all is good.

    FX Impact barrel cleaning. Which direction?

    I was thinking about using the flexible straw from hi-c to put in the breech end to hopefully clear any rings. Problem is I don't know where they ar or if there are any. I guess that was my original question.

    FX Impact barrel cleaning. Which direction?

    I cleaned with my moderator off. No reason to have that on. The weed whacker line I had to cut a sharp 45 to feed through the cleaning pellet. I was worried that the sharp point would poke things until it got past whatever it may damage. I have to twist and work it until it passes through. I...

    FX Impact barrel cleaning. Which direction?

    The straw is an ingenious idea. Just have to find a flexible one to bend up in the breech.
