I would definitely have a hard time but I think it would be my FX Royale 500. Just because it's so simple and easy to work on, if you have to ever.

Has anyone found a decent Picatinny rail to Arca swiss adapter for the fx dreamline tactical bottle?

I've looked at and reached out to saber tactical. They have a unit which might fit but they said it would not work based on customer experiences.

I DO NOT WANT TO DOUBLE THE WEIGHT OF THE RIFLE WITH A CHASSIS.

I did some searches on here and found the sand sport extension but it does not appear to clear the bottle judging by pictures. If it did I could use just about any arca converter plate.

The only option I found was from spartan but I'm already heavily invested in arca swiss for powder burners, photography, and long range optics. These do not work with arca, they have their own ball head.

I considered the tank clamp concept but do not like the idea of putting excessive torque on the connections for the bottle/reg especially with the first plenum installed.

The dreamline's rail is rather short rail to begin with. Most scamazon options require more rail to function properly and are questionable quality.

The gun came with a power plenum which helps with the distance from the rail to the bottle regulator but I still have not found much.

Hoping someone here has. I have the tripods and heads already but no way to attatch them.

I did look at the Yankees hill rail extension but it looks like I may need a riser... which is hard to find that short. Yankee hill makes ok stuff but they are not my favorite people and I do not want to piece meal this hole thing if I do not have to, especially since no one appears to list dimensions so I would have to mail order a bunch of stuff and use trial and error

Rabbits are running rampant in our neighborhood and looks like with the wife's blessing I may jump away from powder burners to dive a bit back into airgun land...used to shoot 10m paper targets competitively but that was 15+ years so lots of new stuff since then!

Traditional neighborhood on 1/4 acre lots or so, but not in city limits and no county ordinance against air guns so backyard shooting is legal but still trying to keep noise down as much as possible. Most shooting would be done from a mostly concealed patio area and longest backyard shot is realistically 20 yds....maybe 30 if I setup on the 2nd floor out a window at night.

My struggle is I know that when I go down this rabbit hole I'm quickly going to want something with more guts than the .177 that is right for my backyard and task at hand. Should I try and get something that is .22 cal and with enough adjustability and pellet choice can bring that fpe down to sub 20 and up to over 30 or is 2 dedicated rigs a simpler answer? Not many coons, few squirrels and no coyotes that I've seen but rabbits doing their thing like...well rabbits have caused a bumper crop this year.

Will be a PCP and initial budget I'm putting at about $1k but I already have the scuba tank from the prior venture and it was recently recertified so good there.

No preference between used or new but generally more of a buy once, cry once mentality so not looking for entry price point solutions. The backyard gun would benefit from compactness and I've enjoyed bullpup style ones in the past and have been looking at used Taipan or FX Wildcat or a new or used Akela. Several on the classifieds right now are intriguing me. What else should I be looking at in this area? If I went the 2 gun route, I'd probably justify to myself spending more on this one as it'd get greater use and could be used inside for precision paper punching

If I went the 2 gun route, the larger one would probably be a .25 cal in a longer platform, considering the Maruder or similar and would have 0 qualms buying used here as well and would probably prefer used to get more bells and whistles for same budget...what else in the .25 cal size and good to 80 to 100 yds should I learn about? This would primarily be small game/pest control though would like to try some field target matches if I can find some in my area.

So what says ya'll? Is a single gun with tuning or barrel sets feasible here...if so any recommendations? Or do you think separate tools for separate tasks is better and what would be your go to?

Ok so I got some rodents that are getting too smart for my traps. Has anyone put a digital scope on a Diana Stormrider and what would you recommend as well for mounting it

Your Advice for a NewB ​

A couple of years ago I collected all the advice, information, fixes, mods, instructionals, and links for the PP700 that I could find on the interwebs.
I must have waded through a 1000 posts.... Armed with that info I was ready to get a PP700.


Then I did a similar thing for the Tactacam 5.0 FTS setup. Done — and purchased it.


So, now I'm standing at the foot of a new mountain — a compressor purchase.

And my work week is so crazy right now that sleep doesn't seem like an option. Much less, doing another deep level research like the other times.

So, would you help me out?
▪ What advice do you have for me?
▪ Or which posts are essential reading?
▪ What mods or accessories do I need?


My situation is that I have to buy it locally in Peru from a guy that imports them from China.
I can't look at them (he lives on the other side of the country), but I can request photos.
Yupp, no warranties, no returns.... Fun fun fun....


Thanks!!

Matthias

Can anyone tell me where I can find the tuning guide on here for 25 cal Maverick. it is posted by AEAC.

THANKS!

I know the Prophet II is just about to be released, Gregor did a shot review on it and said the second one was coming,, Just wondering did I miss it somewhere ?

Thoughts on these slugs out of an FX Superior Liner? Also wondering how they perform at around 850-900 FPS.

I will start off, My back yard range was three wind flags, One at 25 yards one at 35 yards and at the end at 48 yards, I use two and three foot sticks hammered in the ground , On top I use thin ribbon like you make bows from, Wife has this stuff in her sewing kit,Comes on a spool all different colors ,, I use a thumb tack to attach the ribbon to the stick

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?
