Please welcome ThorMolds to our list of fine sponsors + HUGE giveaway!!!

Please join us in giving Thor Molds Inc a warm welcome!



Thor Molds Inc. is a company registered in the United States, with our production and shipping locations in China. Before registering the company, we had been operating on Facebook for 5 years. In these 5 years, we realized that we must have a registered company and website in order to better serve our customers. Our company mainly deals in stamping molds, we do not produce casting molds. There is a big difference between the two. Stamping molds have high hardness, and if used properly, they can be used for a lifetime. Lead is placed inside and then stamped into pellets using a stamping machine. High molding accuracy, without damaging the mold.

The dimensional tolerance of pellets produced by stamping molds reached+0.01MM, with very high consistency and accurate shooting

We also accept special customized orders from customers, but we do not accept orders that change the quantity of particles or bullet holes. We are a small processing factory, that accepts orders from all over the world (as long as your country has logistics services).

To thank Airgun Nation and all of its members we would like to giveaway 3 of our products:

(1) Press slug of any caliber (please refer to the website for details about caliber)



(1) 20 holes .30-45GR.



(1) 6 holes mini semi-automatic pellets mold





This giveaway event will run from May 31st - June 9th at 10pm CST. 3 winners will be chosen the following day. The 1st winner will get first choice, the 2nd second choice, and so on.

To ENTER - Simply reply to this thread below with the word "IN" and welcome ThorMolds to the forum.

Good luck everyone!!!


ATTENTION PARTICIPANTS:

This is a private giveaway that is open to residents around the world (except China). Please note that the winner will be responsible for any customs duties. Multiple entries by the same contestant will result in disqualification. Prizes must be claimed within 10 days of the event’s end.

Muzzle crowns....industry observation

I am not going to highlight any 1 particular brand with this since it seems to be something industry wide. The quality of muzzle crowns is not everything it should be on many AGs, on some there has been zero effort made to create one. Most do not own the necessary equipment to recrown barrels themselves. Yet there are many posts of every make and model with people achieving good accuracy, and fans of every brand out there. Out of curiousity do any of you own a rifle with a mediocre crown that exceeds accuracy expectations?

  • Question
300yd optic

Hi!
I'm building up my 1st PCP; an FX Panthera in .25 (600 or 700) with the expectation of doing some long range shooting. I have 2 questions for anyone with long range air rifle experience:

1) What is the max effective range of a .25 air rifle? (How far out can you reasonably expect to maintain minute-of-pigeon accuracy and still have the force to do the job)

2) What magnification would you prefer (a reasonable min/max magnification)

Thanx!

It was nice out today. Took the Bosler and Girandoni to a friends...

First time firing the Bosler. A new valve and new seals were made.

The gun shoots great and was filled to 600psi.

We were shooting .465 round balls.
My friend Larry who casts the lead was having fun shooting these things

Video needs editing later... but wanted the first shot of the gun on filmed

HW/Weihrauch  I just wanted to post this purely out of my insatiable need for attention.

So glad that I took the time to bring this rifle back to life. I purchased two HW85s from the same gentleman. One of them was functional, while the other ( the rifle pictured ) had a broken cocking shoe, a torn piston sleeve and a badly split stock on the under side of the forend where the cocking lever blasted through it when the cocking shoe let go. The stock was rough. Full of dents, scratches, and gouges. The metalwork was still pretty nice. Some light surface rust that left some freckling after I buffed it off.with the time tested OOOO steel wool and Balistol. Otherwise, considering its age and evident lack of care, the bluing was surprisingly decent.
I tore it down and thoroughly cleaned every part. I installed an ARH Hornet kit and lubed the gun with the proper lubes in the proper places, and then I went to work refinishing the stock. Took her for a spin tonight. Time well spent on this one...

Shortening barrel, accuracy effect?

Hello-

I am thinking of having a machinist shortening my barrel. Barrel is not choke, question is which end should I cut to have less chance of effecting the accuracy? I am thinking the chamber side because you don't mess with factory crown. What do you guys think?


I would like to shorten it a bit. Why not just buy a shorter barrel, not for $400 though. btw - I do not know anything about barrel.

thank you,

PCP Rifle  WTS AAA Slayer 357

American Air Arms Slayer 357. I resealed the entire rifle and went through it inside and out. It's a VERY easy rifle to work on! Much easier than the EVOLs IMO. Very well thought out design. It's just sexy to look at in person!

It has an adjustable balanced valve and to my surprise a self-retracting probe design for extremely efficient airflow. I don't have much .35 ammo, but I tested it with 68gn Griffin HP-DB slugs (1179FPS), 81gn JSBs (1150FPS), and 117gn cast ammo 1033FPS) from Hunter's Supply and it's a beast. Definitely sufficient for hogs, coyotes, and probably deer with heavier ammo.

This is NOT a toy pellet gun! It's more like a firearm in power. I'd keep it, but I already have my bases covered and with a stockpile of lead in other calibers.

It's in excellent condition, just some minors marks on the rail that I can touch up with BC Aluminum Black. No magazine, but they can be sourced and it's very quick and ergonomic easy to hand load.

Barrel is excellent. It uses a real tensioning system that's solid!

Stock is AWESOME! It's two-axis adjustable (pad goes up/down and it can extend or retract). The factory moderator baffles are aluminum (not the fragile 3DP that breaks on a second shot like the EVOLs).

Terms:
* $1725 shipped CONUS only where legal. Zelle (preferred)
* Not interested in trades

What a difference a bit of bling makes...

Being average size (5 '11", 180 pounds) I'm lucky that most "standard" rifle stocks fit me pretty well and rarely require modifications.

But I have large hands and while the stock on Crown was comfortable to shoot the grip was about 3/8" short for carrying one handed.

I needed to add a piece of walnut to extend the grip and decided on a whim to insert a white accent to dress up the rather plain looking stock. It looked so good that I added a white shim to the butt pad as well.

What a difference a bit of bling makes 😁

Too hot and windy to shoot so I thought I'd share a picture.

Cheers!

I Was Asked…

I was in the shade of a huge valley oak enjoying a nice breakfast burrito, my tailgate was down with my AA S410 on it. I had been hunting a property for ground squirrels for a farmer friend. It feels like I’ve gone back about fifty years out here. Maybe 8 cars went by in 4 hours…no leaf blowers blaring, no traffic noise, houses spaced miles apart, a river nearby…the perfect place for an old farmboy. A pick up truck came by, saw me, and pulled over to ask if I was doing vermin control. Then he asked how much I charge. I gave a giggle because he had it backwards. I should be paying for the privilege of hunting their property. The upshot, I got permission to shoot on another property! Life is good.

Sorry say but the new AGN app has blocked me out of responding to anything

I really like the new app ! But it doesn't appear to like me !
I can read threads but I can't respond.

I could get my conversations for a while but now I get this green guy when I try to open them.

Fortunately I can still have access through the old app.
