I would like to note that not all “newbies” are looking to make airgunning their end-all, be-all hobby, so reading and dissecting pages and pages worth of information is not germane to their intended use. The other consideration is the that a portion of the information “out there” falls into...

I’m shocked to read about any success with the Labradar and airguns. I was under the impression that getting such small calibers to register required a microphone or trigger attachment to even have a chance. I can’t comment on the accuracy claims or actual performance of the other chronographs...

I like the Send It. Looked hard at the Pulse- both for cost and features- but ultimately didn’t like having an internal battery with proprietary charger, as well as using so much smart phone based tech. The Send It is fairly fool proof to use, easy to see, and uses a replaceable battery. MDT is...

ZCO, some Tangent, and I believe some Zeiss V8 variants are 36mm. 35mm is a Leupold favorite. True, not a common size to have in the scope ring drawer, but available now from most higher quality ring and mount manufacturers.

I appreciate that. I see Optisan is very forward about being springer rated. Does GPO actually state that somewhere? Or Mueller for that matter? I know some scopes have quietly earned the reputation for holding up even though it’s not specifically advertised.

Hi everyone. I have already searched and read through pages of discussion on this subject here and elsewhere on the web, but having trouble finding a conclusion on two pieces of info: Is the 300 low powered enough for a non springer rated scope to survive? Is there a weight limit for mount...

I present to you, The Minimalist! I know we all work differently, but some of these benches give me daymares!

Some.. interesting suggestions so far. Are you sensitive to chromatic aberration? Would lack of edge to edge clarity, or total image degradation under adverse conditions disqualify a scope? Is a 100% clear image in the middle 90% of the lens at perfect optical center good enough? What do you...

Burst disks are supposed to follow the 3/5 rule.; 7.5k for 4500psi air, 5k for 3000psi air, 1800 for CO2. Can’t say if all imported products adhere to that standard, however.

Right about 2-3/8” from the bottom of the turret housing to the top of the turret at the same elevation setting. Yeah, I guess I was thinking you could figure distance to centerline or distance to the bottom of the objective based on published data. In most of my setups the objective would be...

If the fit is really that close in your case, it would also be worth noting that it is a translating turret, so it may be taller or shorter depending on your elevation zero.

Right about 1-1/16” from the top of the turret to top dead center of the tube. NX8 4-32. Not exactly sure if that’s what you wanted, but should be able to calculate most other measurements from that.

I may be able to offer some of my observations. However, the NX8 and ATACR lines are different enough from each other, and cover such a broad range of prices and magnifications that I’m having trouble distilling down what exactly you want to compare?

I appreciate the info. I have not had the opportunity yet to try myself, but knowing that others have had success gives me hope/confidence that rain won’t necessarily ruin my chances for logging velocity data.

“What exactly did you sell(one or two examples) that you can’t replace now?” Not totally irreplaceable like custom work, but as examples it’d be pretty rare to see a Theoben Eliminator with Bushnell Elite 4200 package, or a Falcon FN19 walnut skeletonized come up for sale- in pristine...

A derivative of your lesson, I learned to be careful selling quality items. Back in the early 2000s I liquidated a few REALLY nice guns to make hay for other hobbies. At the time they all were common enough and I sold at commodity prices. Fast forward to now, I would not have sold a single one...

With all the Xero reports, this has probably been covered, but it also makes for a lot of data to sort through.. so.. Does anyone have experience trying to record velocities shooting from under cover into light to medium rain? I am hoping to get range time soon, and collect velocity data, but...

Inverting the part off tool can help evacuate chips and works to a certain degree, however I would not advise doing so in most instances. Instead of your cutting forces being vectored through the tool post, carriage and into the bed, the force is now trying to lift the tool, post and carriage...

If your friend can handle coordinated motion, just not strength, this could work. FIRMLY attach PVC to a post, wall, bench, vise etc. at an upward angle. My pic was just a mock-up for demonstration- not secure at all. Insert barrel, and use the whole gun and its weight as a cocking lever. If he...
