Resources Field target is an arms race price test

[Iowa Airgunner]

I went to the range to test my Diana 48. There is something wrong with my scope. Kinda got a fish eye look to it and it won’t hold zero.

Scope eaters !!!!! Your not alone sadly

This is with a 19 ft lb spring. I think I might go to a 12 ft kb spring and a different scope.

That is what I was about to do before I bought my HFT that is modified. The 510 was actually in my cart to purchase when someone mentioned the magazine is loaded from the left side and interferes with the side wheel. The 500 is a single shot that I personally like better. I think the HFT trigger is better but I’m not sure about that. I’m sure the 500 trigger is fantastic.

The 510 is a left side loader but the S500XS loads from the right
and
rowan engineering makes a nice 8 shot rotary magazine.

Just get a solid springer rated scope

It is a good Leopold scope. Not sure what’s going on. The recoil is annoying. And I think with a 12 ft lb spring the gun will be shooting under powered and very stable. It has nothing to do with the scope.

I get ya, but, is the leupold springer rated?

 

[Iowa Airgunner]

I will have to check, I’m sure it is. It has never been on anything but a springer for the last ten years . I took it off a 22 springer I decided to shoot open sight.

maybe leupold has a lifetime warranty like Athlon? or Sightron?

 

[Iowa Airgunner]

not even sure it is the scope. I was trying to hoot from a bag and then sticks. It was fine to 35 yards . Dead on. Then it was like two dots up or down and at fifty yards I could not hit the 2 inch spinner target.

arms race price test​

Not that I could be constued by anyone as any kind of extremist about anything, but I'll take this opportunity to demonstrate that even the most demure, level-headed, sane individual can step outside their natural bounds and propensities if/when given ample motivation. Here we have the least expensive airgun to capture the most State and National Champion titles; three of each.

The original rifle sold for $21.95... in the 1960s! Sixty years after the original gun sold for $21.95, the pistol conversion continued it's winning ways last Saturday by prevailing over multiple PCP pistols selling for over fifty times it's original price.

Did I pass the arms race price test?
