I shot the Marauder in the morning and the DreamTac in the afternoon. I've got a bunch of 7.5gr pellets I need to test in the 1701P and the DreamTac, but I've been having fun and haven't wanted to settle down for any testing.

well, that 362 barrel did work good on the 2240, but it was too heavy and didn't balance, so I went back to a short carbine.
Now sporting a 10" barrel and the ldc. lol
So much better!

I Designed a new ManuLoader magazine for a Peashooters Epic 2 rifle in .177 - and 3d printed and finished 4 pcs. for test. (Really hope it is four working magazines, and not four magazines for the bin.

On the topic of 3D printing, almost done with my prototype impact buttstock to add SubMOA buttpad/hook so I can turn my impact into a WFTF rig.

Today I put my dead head test plug in my Tuxing Compressor it would only fill to 3,000.
I'm seeking help under a post with the exact same problem.

If it's like a Yong Heng compressor, most likely the high side piston ring ( carbon ring) is worn causing blow by. It's does not like to run above 65 deg C. I don't use the recirculating pump anymore, I run a straight hose from the faucet and just let it drain to the lawn.Today I put my dead head test plug in my Tuxing Compressor it would only fill to 3,000.

I put a scope setup list together.
Rifle scope sighting adjustment, POA = point of aim & POI = point of impact.
Rifle scope sighting adjustment, POA = point of aim & POI = point of impact.
- 1. Start with the rifle/scope securely mounted on a table/bench where it will remain stationary with NO movement.
- 2. Use a paper target that is set out at 25 to 100 yards from rifle/scope.
- 3. Fire a 3 shot group without moving rifle/scope using the same (POA) for each shot.
- 4. Look through the scope and locate the center of this 3 shot group on the target (POI) and make sure that the rifle/scope is NOT moved.
- 5. WITHOUT moving rifle/scope, adjust crosshairs on the scope to the center of this 3 shot group. The scope crosshairs will now be pointing at the center of the 3 shot group fired by this rifle/scope combo at this sight in range
- 6. Repeat steps 3, 4, & 5 to confirm or fine tune the accuracy of the scope adjustment.

I'm using a 40 gal tote filled with 20 gal of distilled water , and some Royal purple purple Ice , and antifreeze in that water. I'm using Seco Lube 500 oil , and watch the temp Closely. Even when I filled my 6.8L it never got hotter than 122 °F. I would have thought that it would have lasted more than 4 months after all it is rated to fill a 6.8L I'll pull it apart , and inspect it though.
What oil do you use in the YH.

I picked up a Benjamin 312 today. I had been looking around for one a found this at my favorite airgun smith’s shop. Couldn’t leave it behind. And yes that’s the messiest room in the house. My wife refuses to go there.

Forgot to tell you to check the one way check valve 1st, if it doesn't seat good, it can back flow to the low side too. The high pressure piston and seal ass'y was like 14 buck from eBay.

Very nice. What model 3D printer are you using and what software is used to create things like this? This looks to another hobby I'm interested in getting into.
