I’m fairly new to the discipline, although I have shot at several Gp events. So I have become intimately aware that good doping data is critical.
I’ve been practicing, and collecting data on my gun/pellet combo.
I’m currently gathering data for each yard between 10 and 30yds on my Daystate Revere, and have run into a strange phenomenon. The scope is zeroed at 23 yards, everything shorter is held over, everything longer is held over until I get to about 29 yards. I’m finding that I have to hold UNDER by a fraction of a mil dot.!?
after 30yds its back to over. What am I dealing with here? parallax error, pellet instability, shooter error?

Ok Impact guru's I've got a quick question.

I've swapped out the bottom rail so many times that I forgot if all the screws should be the same length or not?

I just swapped out the Scandanavian Arms rail for the K&L Gen 3 rail and I noticed that 2 of the 4 screws are shorter than the other 2. The 2 shorter screws don't bite much. I'm thinking the SA rail may have come with 2 shorter screws, but I can't remember (and I don't see any spare screws laying around).

Are all your screws the same length?

Does anyone know who might be able to repair this pistol??

For those of you smarter than me. Is a 32X at 16X easier to focus correctly than a 16X scope?

I’ve got a Umarex gauntlet with a dovetail receiver I’m wanting to convert that to a weaver rings what’s the best adopter out there for getting the job done preferably something American made

Going to be hard to find a PCP that can beat a Ruger MKIV. What kind of ammo are you shooting? A subsonic or short .22 would be best. A good backstop is a must. I put cat food at the base of a big tree for skunk dispatch. Maybe a Quackenbush? I bet they are load as hell!

I’ve been looking for info on this for a couple of days and I believe I’m overlooking the post(s) that address it. I’m looking to mount a light spotting scope to a taller tripod to view pellet holes in paper targets as opposed to adjusting my scope’s magnification ring or kneeling down to use the tripod pictured below.
Anyone use their Trigger Sick Gen 3 tripod to mount spotting scopes, binoculars, or other optics? If so, are you using any sort of adapters other than what’s pictured and linked below?


What’s the stability like for this sort of application? Is wind a large factor?

In everyone’s opinion who makes the best 308 caliber for the airforce texan

Is this compressor OK just to use for guns

What is the best caliber for big game deer especially

I’ve been trying to find one for my airforce Condor for sometime now does anyone know where to find any considering they don’t make them no more

I’ve been looking into this gun is it worth the money and what are your thoughts is it accurate

Where is all the Air Force lovers at I would love to see some of your thoughts on the guns and mods

Has anybody else got a Gamo phox mk2, a theoretical question to ask- what is the maximum power achievable from a Gamo phox after first adjusting it completely counter clock wise- then 15turns clockwise, can’t seem to find an answer

I want to reach this forum member Gunsmith. Any help will be appreciated, thanks

Has anyone bought and used the extended warranty on Amazon for a compressor? I'm wondering if anyone has had issues?

Hello all,

I have some questions... This will likely be a long thread and in my past forum exploits I should know not to make this long of a post because people stop reading about 1/4 the way through, I have highlighted questions. I've been searching for answers for the last week with Google and this forums search function... here I am without answers.

That being said. I am looking to buy my first PCP. I have a Crossman/Mendoza r77 springer that meets 40% of my needs but when facing nuisance critters it just does not have the performance. I donated a .177 Crossman wad cutter to one of 4 racoons the other night and it appears all I did was ruin his evening for a while.. So the problems...

First a racoon or opossum are very determined critters. In the past I just used 22 LR or 12 gage to hunt or remove them from the buildings but since most encounters are in concrete and tin buildings its been the 12 gage with very strategic firing lanes with me physically running after them or setting up ambushes. I can no longer use the 12g because the buildings have been filled up with shotgun sensitive items and desirable animals along with me not being young enough to run them down like I used to.

I tried doing some searching. For power requirements every forum/article parrots at least 25 FPE for coon.... thats all fine and dandy but no one appears to have minimum FPE to gage effective range. So...

Does anyone know the effective FPE of a projectile against a racoon at distance?

22LR looked to be effective on racoons up to about 200 feet back when I hunted them with dogs but its a lot of work to reverse engineer the data . Especially without B.C. of the ammo I used over a decade ago. I know around 39 grains at 900-1000 fps or whatever 22 CB short someone handed me in the dark in suburban areas to be quiet.. That is going to be a problem with my gaging this whole deal.

Opossums aperantly require the 50 BMG because I've hit them with my car at 70 mph and they've rolled along just to get up and wonder off after the inconvenience... but I think what would work on a coon would apply with proper shot placement.

I'm a firearm guy looking at the airgun world the same way a GM mechanic looks at a Dodge vehicle. These both go down the road but what does that do and how does it work? Exterior ballistics is something I research while reloading for my bigger firearms and I research it a lot.

I reached out to Utah Airguns with my dilemma and they recommended the FX wildcat and the FX tact compact both in .22. The wildcat is is a bull pup and whether or not its the same or not. I HATE bull pup triggers and ergonomics on firearms. The added barrel length may be helpful in this case.

With the nature of the engagements in buildings and the availability and price of 22 LR ammunition offerings locally I am investigating possible replacement of the 22LR with PCP. My other uses are starling removal from my house area, squirrel hunting, rabbit hunting, and general plinking. I'm hoping for a crossover because this FX rivals the prices I've paid firearms including 22LR race guns.

The compactness, folding stock for cow stansion traversal and adjustability of the dream-tact compact is appealing along with its modularity similar to the scary black rifle making news regularly. However when it comes to the scary black rifles. I build them for one purpose and leave them set that way. Its only downside is that the dream-tact compact is 1 pound to heavy and doesn't have much for 2 point slings and lights. Any ideas?

What I can not figure out is if it will do double duty without out major modifications.

How much can I get out of a tune by just setting it to low and changing the hammer spring without touching the screw?

So this unit will apparently turn down with the dial. Seperate from that adjustment screw. The manual doesn't get to specific on any of this.

What is the average velocity of this thing with its preffered pellet on low? It appears everyone buys a small gun and tries to tune it like a big gun and this information is hard to come by.

Because I need to turn this down for inside buildings to reduce over penetration and ricochet I was contemplating a lower weight slug as a possibilty while the twist rate (unknown) may not stabilize this perfectly and at this velocity if the slug doesn't tumble or break the pellet probe the added weight might increase the FPE enough to be effective at 20 feet against these ornery little thieves at low velocity.

So my other questions on this unit are:

Is it worth while to carry a seperate stock tank while hunting? Or so these lose a lot of pressure when changing them? I do not like the bottle.

What is the stock twist rate?

What is the stock non adjusted trigger pull weight to break at the second stage? It appears to be not adjustable for take up weight just travel. My favorite 2 stage trigger is 2 pound take up on the short travel distance with a 4-5 pound second stage break. This allows for finding the trigger and feeling it set with thin gloves on. It gets cold here.

What is everyone favorite method of a compressor that doesn't require a mortgage or and addition to the house?

Is there a cost effective optic brand that doesn't lose zero? Otherwise I will stick with my home states brand of Vortex.

Thanks in advance.

How long are your Yong Heng compressors lasting? I’m on my second one. The first one lasted 3 months.

Hello AEAC Fans!

This will be the first of several RMAC 2022 videos I'll be sharing.

On the way are lots more shooter interviews and lengthy RMAC Vendor Booth interviews, as well as an EPIC long interview with last year's RMAC winner Keith Gibson, where he spills all the juicy tech-secret & tune beans on his RMAC 2021 winning FX Impact!

Enjoy!!

I was wondering very new to the fx impact, and was wondering if the 34gr pellet, and the 34gr slug would shoot equally at same tune, I'm shooting 25 cal.

When viewing "Threads", if I click on a post then use my browser "Back" arrow, I end up back on page 1 instead of going back to the page I was on. What's the trick to go back to page 3, or 4, etc.?

I have just received my FX Impact M3. I have read numerous articles and hints…. I guess I’ll just come out and ask..I one put an carbon fiber tube on the inner barrel, and then puts a tensioner tube with barrel support on is it necessary to go the full monte and put a barrel harmonic kit on?
This is just one of many questions to come, I would like to say thank you in advance for all the folks that have already started to travel down this road And have input to give.

Has anyone fitted a 28mm regulator gauge onto their FX Dreamline Classic in an Aeron CZ chassis? Factory size is 23mm and I’d like a digital gauge and have only seen them in the larger 28mm size.

Hellow everyone, I am new to this site and pcp air guns. I purchased a Benjamin marauder F&T with a Lothar Walther barrel. I have a sparrow infestation and my 35 year old Benjamin pump is wore out. I am wondering
Is there a designation on the rifle itself the shows it is equipped with the Lothar Walther barrel? The model number on the box shows BP2264RLW But the model # on the rifle just shows BP2264R. Thanks
