I have the SA32/19 which has the 19mm optic lens and is great for the short-range use I intended it for - primarily ratting. If you are going to go after game that is more of a distance with your Texan, I would suggest the 35mm lens which is right at your price point (with LRF). It will give you a lot better definition in that 50-100 range for hogs or coyotes. My PARDS have worked reliably. The LRF with BC has always been correct for me. Documentation sucks, but they aren't the only one!

You are looking at a 384k scope in your price range. I have a 640k that I use for the longer range night hunting that there is a large difference in target definition than the 384k with the small lens, but the prices start getting much higher with them.

I think there are a lot more posts in this section if you search for them that will give you a wide range of opinions from use from other members.
Appreciate the information, I am fairly new to the whole night hunting thing. I started with NV and having only gone a few times I did get two yotes but that was with my .308 powder burner. Those shots were at 100 and 120 yds.

What did you do airgun related today.

Hot as hell is South Florida today. Thinking I’ll get me some iguana’s.
Where abouts is FL….we have an active airgun group here…shoot Fieldtarget, and benchrest…check us out online at Desoto Airgunners…If you have any questions PM me.. John

Regulator for m18x1.5 bottle

If the threads on the bottle are M18 x 1.5, then I'd recommend this regulated fill valve - I have it on a spare 500cc bottle that I use to fill my 10M Air Arms Alpha pistol (no gauge also) and it works great! Great value, and nice and compact too.
Awesome thank you! Seems like when I look them up all I find is just a standard valve. I have one that I bought that I thought was a regulator, but it just has 2 gauges. One shows the bottle fill pressure, the other is the outlet line but it doesn't regulate. It works for filling, bit not for tethering.

Muzzle crowns....industry observation

Here's mine, Taipan Veteran Long .22. Rough crown had a burr. Used brass screw and JB bore paste. Targets both at 50yds. Results clearly speak for themselves.View attachment 470949

That first Pic looks pretty rough for sure. Nice improvement!

Hatsan  Mod 95 .22 breach question

Good to know
The platform can be made to shoot much better. It has a 45 coil spring that’s to soft. Shorten to 40 coils add 1.125 delrin plug for space and Re guide with longer tighter guide. Re seal with tighter seal,( I made mine as all 27 mm seals are junk parachute ) and depending if it’s adjustable port set at 3.3 mm to 3.4 mm. Replace front two trigger screws with longer and the gun will transform into a calm 17 to 19 ft lb shooter.
The Quattro is a great trigger. Every bit as good as a Rekord at 1 lb and up as most hunting guns should be.
My re barreled .25 Turkish Tommy ( same gun as a 95). Is doing 17 ft lbs now

I may Re barel it again to .22.
I hated the .177 it was .. not shot wise just hate the caliber.

Zulus LRF vs non

The nighttime pest are going to be in 9big trouble” when that Zulus is mounted atop your PCP.
Yeah I'm looking forward to what I see with it. I know we get mice around our house. The dairy has some rats. Would be fun to start shooting some at night. Also looking forward to the video recording of shooting. Have never had that before but never wanted to drop the change on a camera setup. Just a bonus with this scope.

Crosman  Another money pit. My crosman 3622.

Now I moved on to the stock. I have 4 sporter style K98 Sako mauser stocks I got off ebay on an auction. They are semi finished, so plenty of meat to play with. Always loved the lines of those stocks, remind me of the daystate Huntsman stocks with the rollover comb.

I did just a bit of inletting to fit the trigger, and used a 3/4" drum sander to open up the barrel channel so the air tube would drop in. The bolt handle lines up damn near perfect with the mauser stock notch once I inlet the trigger channel just a little more, it will drop right in to the notch.

I had planned to mount my multi shot breech to this action, but im liking the slim look of the rifle right now.

Here she is with the scope back on it.

Man, I love that stock! Amazed that so little inletting is required to make rhe 3622 components fit.

Question about the Gen 1 Marauder trigger: OEM or aftermarket? If aftermarket, from whom?

Regulator for m18x1.5 bottle

Any suggestions for a regulator to put on my 4500 psi bottle? I'm going to buy a used 48ci tank for more portability vs my 3L tank, and want to add a regulator to the top of it and have a tether setup I can toss in a backpack. It's for a rifle that doesn't have a gauge so I want to be able to run it at its peak of its curve.

Thanks!
