Steyr Hunting 5 Auto

Awesome setup and nice shooting.

I live in Ahwatukee so I know exactly what you are going through. The insane heat is making it near impossible to shoot my airguns which is killing me. I have found the best time to shoot is about an hour before sunset or around 5:45 pm. It is the only time when I can find enough shade to hide behind so I can shoot without risk of having a heat stroke. Still hot as hell and uncomfortable but better than nothing.

Penchetta, very nice! Love the shooting field!!!

very good spot !!!!
ok .....I come ...hahahahhaha i love your home

Look that my friend and good day

I've run about 1000 pellets through mine, like a laser beam until this morning, blamed it on wind gusts but guess I'll have to clean the barrel
what do you use to clean?chemical and brush? Or just string line and patches? And you remove the barrel from the action?

Get yourself a Crownsaver from Mac1 airguns(inserts from the muzzle) to pull patches through from the breach and some Kroil. You will have our barrel clean in no time then it's back to shooting.

You can use a straw to get past the baffle and such in your ldc, it makes life easier.

Thanks John. 
I rarely clean my barrels but I'm throwing so much lead through the semi - auto that I do believe a cleaning is in order.
will get a crown saver - From Mac-1
i wonder if removing the barrel so many times might cause it's own issues?
CK

Thanks Penchetta 
i shoot my powder burners less and less -- one reason being the constant disassembly after each shoot for cleaning---
but with my Air rifles I rarely need to clean the barrel- almost never see a degradation in accuracy --
I only shoot JSBs in the pellet rifles- but will need a routine for the semi auto- easy to go through thousands of pellets -LOL- truly a fun gun!
is there any special placement needed for the barrel - or does it simply bottom seat? Also a index notch or rotational placement?
And then tighten the set screws?
ive watched the videos on the Steyr LG 110 barrel install but don't believe the breech block is the same in the semi auto?

Thanks Penchetta -- 
how often are you removing and cleaning your barrel?

Brilliant range there!!

Cleaning the barrel of the Steyr H5A could be quite tricky.. Not a fan of taking the barrel out, so I used to use cleaning pellets for mine.. They are kinda expensive so moved to a solution i picked up off one of Ted's videos..

Made a pull through using a nylon grass cutter line . I bend the sharp end of the line into an L after piercing it through a patch and pass it through the magazine slot, into the breech. At first its a little fiddly but once you get the hang of it, its very easy and really quick to clean. I have noticed this barrel does require regular cleaning tho. Maybe cus you end up shooting a lot more pellets. Its such and addictive rifle..
Will take pictures and share them here on my next clean ....

what range are the groups above. if its shot at 5o yards those are hughe groups for 50 yards??
