    Great News for Raptor Owners

    As man o fyou know, I've had very good accuracy from the Raptor Prototype I have after in stalling an FX Heavy bbl. for shooting slugs in my gun. However, it was not a happy time. It is well known that the Raptor suffers from a not so well designed valve and seat that loves to fail. Particularly...

    enjoying the new addition, the Uragan .25 with Slugs

    Testing this morning with the Uragan and my hand cast slugs in the rain. Hard to take pics! Steel plate is 96 yards, 5 shots. Lots of splash, but actual hits the size of a U.S. Dime. Every thing was crystal clear thru the Zeiss. Just not so much when trying to take pics. Knife Edit, Slugs are...

    New HP test for full power pcp's in. .22

     I was able to test the Raptor modded cc1 as well I gave it the same treatment. It is going to be a very effective varmint round, however, it would ruin far too much meat for a hunting round so treated. I again shot a 1 gal. water jug, this time at 50 yards and it just simply blew up. Both the...

    Designing a new Slug for myself.

    I posted this in the Air Pistol Section, and now am working on the same Principle for My Raptor In a heavier weight. I'm looking forward to testing if this unexpected Central Snow and wind ever stops. Being a Texan, anything much under 72F irritates me. LOL! I did get to try it out on a...

    Hp's in or pcp pistols

    There was a thread on the GTA recently with people having no luck with Hollow Points in their pistols due to low velocity. Some even reported no to poor expansion in lower powered (600) or slightly more fps), pcp rifles. This led me to experiment further. As many of you know, I design and test...

    Results with Artemis PP700 so far

    Always loved hand gunning, but didn't have a pcp air pistol. This seemed a good way to enter the type. I have been amazed with the accuracy of this offering.. First thing I notices when it arrived from wes Bob, was the barrel looked to be lapped and polished in the bore. Here is how it...

    Getting Leery with an issue at Pyramyd Air

    I have read for years what a great company PA is if you have an issue with a new AG. some go so far to say, "If you don't like it", you can return for something else. In years of dealing with P.A., I have never had a need to return an order of any kind. I find that I am now stuck in an...
