TX200 .17 New Out of the Box question?

Happy to say I received my .177 TX200 last Friday and shared it with my buds at out monthly Air Gun get together on Saturday. One friend said I could use some of his Tung oil to finish the beautiful walnut stock. I agreed and after the meet we went to his place and prepped the stock with 00 steel wool followed with a nice coat of tung oil. Wow!...
Now back to my original question
I cleaned the barrel with a few patches and that was it, clean. ran a few FX 8.4 pellets through her to make sure things were as they should be, all seemed well and good.
Took the action out and worked in another coat of tung on Monday. Buffed and worked the stock today and back together she went. Now it's time to see what she will do over the chrony. I mount my FX chrony just under the front of the barrel end and load an FX 8.4 gr for the start off a 5 shot group. What I was expecting was readings around the upper 800's like Steve on AEAC got with his .17 back 3 years ago. Not even close is mine. His 10.3gr are shooting at 810 and mine is 680???
Do I need to shoot a tin through her to break her in? Or ?
Any advice is most welcome.
Here is my 8.4 shot string.

Wildcat MK3 BT Compact .22

I thought this might be of benefit to some of the Wildcat BT fence sitters out there as well as any of you who may be frustrated with inconsistency.
After attempting to tune and harmonic tune my new Wildcat BT to the JSB Hades as well as other pellets I was ready to send it back and get a new one - until I watched Ted's video (Ted's Holdover), and heard him say something about keep shooting and shooting and at some point your ES/SD will shrink and become crazy consistent. I've watched more than one of Ted's videos and if nothing else I believe him when he says he's done something with X result. So I've put approximately 600 pellets down stream and ya know what??? Ted was right! Yesterday afternoon I sat down and ran my pellet selection over the FX radar again with some astonishing results. I shot 10 shot groups after several fowlers till it settled in - no more than 4 shots were needed. My settings are irrelevant to anyone else but I will share my chrony data with respect to each projectile tested.

JSB Redesigns Power wheel 7 - AVG FPS 854, ES 7, SD 2.3 NOTE: last week with the same settings my lowest ES was in the high 30's.
JSB heavy 18.13 Power wheel 5 - AVG FPS 939, ES 3, SD 1.1 I ran this 3 times throughout my testing yesterday with almost the exact results. 8@939fps and 2@937fps.
JSB Hades Power wheel 2 - AVG FPS 846, ES 14, SD 4.4 / Power wheel 3 - AVG FPS 902, ES 23, SD 8.3 second set just for a comparison.
FX Hybrid Power wheel 7 - AVG FPS 878, ES 9, SD 2.8 NOTE: last week my ES was no less than 23.

Now, I have not as yet harmonic tuned any of these however I was tuning for the Hades with MOA ish results out to 58 yards. The 18.13 Heavies were always the best with the Hybrids giving intermittent best groups. I hope that the harmonic tuning will now go much better.
As a side note; I was concentrating on the Hades because I had 2 occasions to use them within 30 yards at around 950 ish with absolutely devastating results. One chicken house raider was 21 lbs and the other was closer to 15 lbs.
I will now second Ted's advice, if you have a Wildcat BT and it seems like its all over the place and is inconsistent, shoot it, shoot it, shoot it and shoot it some more. I believe it will settle in, mine did.

SOLD JSB 25 cal Pellets For Sale!

Up for sale are a bunch of tins of JSB 25 pellets. I no longer have a 25 cal air rifle, so these pellets need to go. I will pack these with as many of the Pyramyd Air foam packaging as I have, and of course will bubble wrap everything safely, and mark as fragile. I have some small tins I will throw in to sweeten the deal depending on which you prefer.
20220809_220413.jpg



3 tins of the King Heavy 34 grain
4 tins of the 25 Gr Exact King pellets

Take them all for $125 and I'll throw in some 150 count tins of 25 gr and/or GTO non-lead pellets from JSB, and we can split shipping costs.

Methods: How do YOU make sure your "Optimum" zero is correct for 2 PBR zeros?

Wow, that IS a mouthfull... (chuckle)

OK, by using a ballistics program like Chargun Pro or Strelok you can plug in your data and the program will tell you what your optimum zero range is. Right?

OK, if you sight-in your scope at that "optimum" distance, how do you KNOW that you are truly sighted in at the optimum range?

There is VERY little difference in the POI within a specific range near the optimum zero distance, so it is hard to actually KNOW you are sighted in "optimally".

I mean, in my case, I set my kill zone at .25 or one quarter of an inch which is less than 2 widths of the .177 ammo I shoot.

Anyway, the only way I have come up with, and this is not always possible for many people, is to sight in the airgun at the "optimum range" and then set the target to the minimum and maximum PBR ranges and see if they are still within the kill zone and with the appropriate drops within the KZ.

THEN, I test closer and farther than the PBR (at measured distances) to see if the holdover/holdunder matches what I expect and/or what the ballistics program says it should be.

I guess my question is... is there an easier/faster way that is more precise or at least AS precise? I haven't even been able to find an article that refers to this, although I may have not used the correct/right search terms. (smile)

its intended purpose. As the original owner, it has never been fired by me.
It was test fired by Pyramid Air as a purchase option ($10.00 for 10 shot test fire) by Pyramid Air.

This rifle comes in the original box, all included paperwork, and applicable tools.

See description and specifications on the Pyramid Air website.

What next?

When Athlon scopes arrived on the scene they were the next, hottest thing. The Midas Tac line, especially offered way more glass than one could get- at that price- from any other manufacturer. Now, with all the price increases, the Midas Tac line is being priced out of the 'best bang for a dollar; even a Canadian dollar' region.

If you agree, can you tell me which scope/line can replace the Midas Tac; as I need a new scope?

Where should my next scope purchase be focused (pun intended), if not at another Midas Tac?

If you do not agree; why?

What makes the Midas Tac line still relevant, in light of the huge price increases?

PCP Rifle Recommendations

I am new to Air Guns and am looking to make my first purchase. I am looking for a solid rifle that is accurate as well as reliable. I am looking for a rifle in .25 caliber; it will be used mostly for squirrels. I have been looking at the Marauder and the Air Force Condor as well. I just want to buy a rifle that I don't have to mess with much; as far as putting more money into it. What is the better between the two and are there any other recommendations in the 1000 dollars and below range that would be a good solid out of the box rifle.

NLA Kalibrgun Cricket .25 (lowered $)

For sale: Cricket .25. Includes 3 mags. Tuned by Charlie at Georgia Airguns. Hands down this has been my most reliably accurate and powerful kit. I am second owner and unfortunately didn’t get any paperwork but it runs about 860 on heavies. Holds air forever and no issues. This has been my primary shooter for 4 years. It’s not a safe queen. I tried to get the most accurate pics of all scuff marks. Trigger is very light and as smooth as any bull pup I’ve shot.
I recently joined the dark side (fx impact) and have to make some room.

$750 includes what you see plus the probe (not pictured) and a Plano case…and free shipping in the lower 48. PayPal pls. I’ll split fees so everyone feels safe. I will gladly FaceTime or chat via phone as I don’t have a ton of cred built up on this site. I’d appreciate a review when we are done as I have a ton more to sell this fall.

No scammers and no drama appreciated. No I won’t take your wire transfer from Dubai so your agent can come pick up. I’m sorry your wife thinks you have too many guns, you probably do but I’m not accepting lowball offers. I will, however, ship it UPS the day after your PayPal payment is received. I may even throw in a can of pellets.

It’s a cricket. If you have not owned one this is an amazing gun. If you have owned one, you already know this is an amazing gun.

Shooting a Springer...for Dummies

Hi Y'all,

Since so many new airgunners are frustrated by the lack of accuracy they get out of their springers, I wrote an article for the American Airgunner blog detailing why the specific hold matters so much when shooting a springer. There's also a pretty stark demonstration of hold sensitivity in there.

Its catered to new shooters, but I wanted to drop it here since AGN has quickly become the go-to knowledge hub.

You can check out the post here:

What’s a good simple.22

I’m in the market for a .22 that I can get 35-45 ft lbs out of with 17-23 grain pellets/slugs. I’ve looked at the FX Impacts and they look like a nice rifle but I’m afraid it might be a little complicated for me. I’d like to have to have at least fairly good accuracy out to 100 yards. Also I shoot left handed. Is there a fairly simple solid rifle that fits what I’m looking to do. What’s you guys opinions. Thanks

Good Out of the Box Shooters (PCPs) - Share Your Experiences

After reading many threads where members ask questions seeking advice concerning which gun to purchase for hunting/pesting, a first PCP for backyard plinking, or wanting to tryout benchrest styled shooting I saw several posts where tinkerers, competitors, and mechanically inclined members are advising Rick Fat Thumb, Mr. Cubicle, and Joe Hammerfist to purchase their favorite first tinkerers’ toy. So it dawned on me this morning to search for a thread listing and detailing members’ experiences with good “out of the box shooters.” I didn’t find much in a quick search, so I felt compelled to create a thread for it.

In the context of this thread a good “out of the box shooter” should be a gun that is relatively easy to setup for a person completely new to PCP airguns, shoots with consistent accuracy, and maintains the potential for relatively reliable precision once the shooter learns what it takes to shoot more precisely. Considering that this is a thread that will likely benefit more people new to air gunning, let’s aim to keep the cost for rifles under $1200 and air pistols under $600. The suggested guns should meet the following criteria:

  1. The guns must be PCP airguns.
  2. After unboxing, affixing an optic or sights, maybe giving the barrel a decent cleaning to remove most of the manufacturer’s grease, gassing up, and sighting in your scope (if applicable), the gun should shoot accurately and relatively consistently within a reasonable distance for its build out of the box. This entails something like 10 yards for pistols, 25 -35 yards for low-powered compact carbines and bullpups (maybe < 20-25fpe), and 50 yards for moderately priced entry level and budget rifles on up into up into the lower middle-tiered PCPs. It should do this without having to be tuned by a distributor or gunsmith.
  3. It may be regulated or unregulated.
  4. It should be a gun built to last more than a year without the accuracy being compromised. Maybe share with us how it has held up after a year or two.
Other things that may be helpful-
  • Guns you’ve had your eye on for a while are great, but guns you have experience with are preferred.
  • Specify what the gun’s strengths and weaknesses are. Are there known issues or problematic parts?
  • Suggest what you believe good primary and secondary uses are (e.g. a good pesting tool for animals “xxx” size to “zzz” size, good basement paper target puncher, etc).
  • Be sure to discuss the sound level and weight.
  • Finally, parts and diagrams should be relatively easy to access.

What effect does closing down the transfer port have on the dwell of the valve?

Hey Folks,
This question has me thinking.
Let's say I'm shooting slugs out of my Crown mk2 and decided to shoot pellets. Without changing the reg pressure , or power wheel adjustment but only close down transfer port from high to medium or low. What effect does the excess air have on the dwell time of the valve or does it? Does the back pressure increase the dwell time or just what happens to all that extra air. It's in a sealed chamber, does it work against the return spring for the valve?
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Mike
