So in August I decided to get my first PCP, a wood stock avenger. Bought a good hand pump with it—used it one time, I thought “this sucks”. Now I need a compressor so ordered a Nova. Shot the heck out of the avenger for a few days, bought 10 mags for it. So now I want another PCP, bought an Eagle claw carbine. And I need 10 mags for that too. Shot the heck out of that too for a couple weeks. “Now”, I thought, “I should have a more capable compressor” —by now I’m going to the range 4-5 days a week, staying there all day, going through about 3-4 tins of pellets every day. So ordered a Hill EC3000, outdoor range I go to has 110 power so perfect solution. Hill compressor stays in the pickup all the time. All the while of course reading, researching and lusting for more, buying a crap load of pellets now and then (telling myself it’s good to stock up). So things are going swell but I need? more. My need was satisfied by a HW100. Wow, cool, now I’m spending even more time at the range but all is well, it’s summer, I’m retired, etc. Because all this started with a department store springer I’ve had for years, now I have to research a good springer. So in my safe now is a HW97. Holy moly is this thing accurate and fun—the old nitro piston went to my nephew. But of course I can’t have just one, so a TX200 keeps the 97 company. Now with winter coming I should have a better arrangement so today ordered a Great White tank, Hill compressor is no good for filling that all the time so now it’s gonna be a compressor accordingly. Thinking AV 4500 or Alpha Carette? This, along with all of the scopes, rings, maintenance stuff, field targets, chrono, spare orings, PELLETS!! Now, what’s next?
Yikes!
