    fill probe issue

    I appreciate the replies! I did try it with it cocked as jarmstrong suggested--same result tho'... Perhaps the problem may be that the tank is at 0 psi and the pump isn't the same as filling from a scuba tank or something like that where I could open the valve and get immediate, sudden full...

    fill probe issue

    wamf is on it! I added the Huma regulator and the quick fill with the Huma gauge some years back. I bought a BSA probe (somewhere said it was the right one--don't remember where I saw it). To me, it seems like the probe is a hair too small, and if it was a tighter fit the o-rings would seal...

    fill probe issue

    I'm trying to fill the tiny tank on my rifle (CZ 200S) with my new (early Christmas) pump (CS3) but the fill probe is leaking so badly I can't get much pressure in the tank. I ordered a fresh supply of 007 0-rings (Sterling) and I'm using silicone grease on them. The probe is a BSA I bought ~6...

    Air Arms T200 Ammo

    sjs, First, let me say, great choice for your first! Mine is an absolute tack driver. That Czech barrel... Mine really liked H&N 8.18 gr wadcutters when it was “factory tuned”. Tip: you can get a better deal on these from a website called Champions Choice. They sell them branded with their...

    88 cu. ft. Carbon tank question

    @lenweber2 You are touching on the relevant issue— pressure vs volume. Just because the pressure in the tank is at 3000, 3500, 4500 or the like does not mean that the tire will suddenly be subject that pressure. The volume of air is a function of the valve orifice size and/or the flow rate...

    lets talk low power tunes vs high power for backyard

    The AA T200. Perfect choice for the OP, imo. I added a HUMA external regulator and a moderator. My best tune (adj transfer port screw): H&N 8.18gr Match; avg767 fps; SD 2.53 fps; ES 9.0 fps; FPE 10.69 H&N 10.65; avg707 fps; SD 1.95fps; ES 7.2fps; FPE 11.83 I mostly shoot the 8.18gr...

    Who makes your favorite open sights?

    My favorite rear sight is the Airforce Adaptive model. I use mine with a Merit Master adjustable iris aperture. Love this combination.

    Stressing on 1st PCP

    @airranger— good call on adding the reg! Mine’s the HUMA external and I really like it. Before reg: ES 18 fps; SD 7.6 fps over 50 shots Post reg: ES less than 10 fps (6 to 9 typically); SD = less than 4 fps over 60 shots. Highly recommend the HUMA external. Takes up no reservoir...

    Stressing on 1st PCP

    Love the look of Cricket Carbine like the one CampFussell has. A great rifle for the money is AA 200T. Very tunable even for a newb like me. Mine’s a pure one hole tack driver out to 40 yards with JSB 10.3. I added a better bolt and trigger shoe, mod, and a HUMA reg. Very efficient on air...

    What bar to set a Huma reg for a .25 Wildcat

    Bob_O, re: your point #2– would it possible to “witness mark” the frame and air cylinder before removal and reinstall to align the marks? This would eliminate the need to measure the probe depth? tnx, Matt

    HW35E .177 , pellets that shoot well....

    Try the H&N 8.18 Match Rifle. These are wadcutters and have proven very accurate in my 35. For a heavier pellet, my go to is the 10.34 JSB. Matt
