Very close to my house there is a ground field where I can shot up to 300 yards and being able to see exactly where I hit.

I have confirmed and re-confirmed that my Daystate Renegade HP NON regulated is much more consistent at over 190-230 yards than my Woverine HP HR, both with JSB 34 grain 25 Cal.

This is contraintuitive!!. The Woverine has a Huma Regulator inside and a big omega bottle and the Renegade just has a cilinder of 300 cc.

Variation in accuracy at long dstance is substancial among the two rifles !!!

I have been thinking for an explanation.... A lot!

The only thing that can make a lógical explanation is that at that distance is visible the difference in release of air made by a mechanical hit of the hammer to open the valve in the Woverine vs. the electronic release that the selenoid make shot after shot, with absolute precision.

I have seen the difference so many times that I can confirm that the difference is absolutely real !!

If someone has a better explanation, I will be happy to hear it.

Goes out to ThomasT! After seeing him post up some targets he designed on this thread- https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/bench-rest-8-x-8-competition-target.1269325/

I reached out to him to tweak on a target a member had shared with me(DAVELARSEN). I believe it was an original 50 yard partial target download from Thomasair.

Anyway, I requested correct numbering, and sighters both at bottom row and right side. The reason for this is I want to see while practicing while using a windflag, how shots must be corrected as you move up the row. I’ve learned just because you’re in the bulls in the bottom two rows doesn’t mean it’ll remain constant as you work up to the upper horizontal rows, and vice versa.

Anyway, Thomas did an awesome job, and a big thank you to him! I’ll be using these at a 100, also

Taipan Veteran Long in excellent condition. Shooting 33.95 JSB at 905.
Power plenum, digital manometer, DonnyFL Tanto, 8-mag holder, 5 magazines, custom cocking knob by mtnghostgunner.
Purchased this from CTairgunner1288 not long ago- one last attempt to get along with a bullpup design. It's everything the Taipan proponents say- accurate, powerful, great trigger etc. I'm just throwing in the towel on bullpups, cannot handle them well standing offhand, which is how I shoot ~85% of the time.

CTairgunner1288 did an excellent write up on the rifle here:

Will be happy to answer any questions you have, just PM me- can send you my number if you prefer to discuss by text or phone call.

$1250 shipped, CONUS only. PayPal or money order. Not interested in trading at this time.

MK1 in .22 with walnut stock, bought it used here two years ago, shot very little over that time. Installed the Huma Power Plenum XL Set With Tuning Regulator, also has two magazines and fill port. Asking $800 shipped (no trades), Paypal FF (US only).

Great Scope, been used for maybe a couple single day matches.

Super clear glass, it is a large scope but comes with all three turret types which are easy to swap and change between MRAD, MOA 1/4 and 1/8 moa.

Has a custom "Shark Fin" Wheel extension to allow for more distance between the further distances/ yardages.

Believe these were $999.

Asking $750 shipped and insured.

Good morning fellas AGN,
I’m in the process of finalizing a trade with cash on top from my end. I am going to use PP+3.5% for my protection with the cash portion. How would I go about shipping my gun to the seller before getting his gun? Please advise. Thank you.

Every fall, I purchase several spring rifles and get myself through the winter months by tuning them. Then I typically offer them for sale for the exact cost I have in them.

Offered for sale is a Weihrauch HW80 in .177, that has had the trigger completely worked over with all parts hand polished and adjusted, all powerplant components hand polished, and a new Vortek PG4-HO stainless spring kit and Vortek vacuum seal installed. As indicated by the enclosed pre-tune and post tune statistics, I was able to take the performance of this rifle from +1/2" at 18 yards to a 10 shot group average of only .34" with the AA 8.4 gr pellets.

The rifle has been shot very little and is ready to go. The only unfortunate encounter is that while on my bench, I accidentally allowed it to roll over on its side on a couple of screw heads, and marked the right side of the stock. I have filled the indentations but have not taken the time to find the exact stain match. These are visible in the accompanying photos.

AOA has this gun on sale currently at $549. I am offering it, shipped within the continental US, in the original packaging, for $500 net, including shipping, with no cost to you for all of tuning work and the Vortek components, as an offset to the minor stock dings previously mentioned. PayPal F&F or add 3%.

The original spring has been discarded and is not included - shown below for comparison purposes only.

All of the tuning info and photos of the rifle are as found below.

Hello everyone,

Received four tins of the JSB Monster Redesigned 13.43gr .177 cal pellets in yesterday and got to shoot a lot of targets this morning. I used my FX Crown MK II and shot all the targets at 30-yards. I first shot one magazine ( 22 shots ) at a test target using the original JSB Monster 13.43 because this is the pellets that I have found to shoot the best with this rifle. I then shot a second magazine at a test target using the new JSB Monster Redesigned 13.43gr and did a small amount of adjustment to the scope. Next I shot a #177 target ( first photo ) and scored a 189 and made just two single click adjustments to the scope, one for elevation and one for windage. Next I shot two 30 Yard Challenge targets and scored 198 and a 200 ( second photo ) and will post this 200 over on the 30-Yard Challenge thread. Several things came to my attention after reviewing all of the targets, 1) the Redesigned shot as good and I believe just a bit better than the Original, ( I will need to shoot more to have a fair evaluation ), and 2) and most important, please note not one single flier on either card. The miss shots, I have to contribute to my error, or at least a portion. I am very pleased with these new pellets will do more comparison testing against the Original style.

Have a great day,
ThomasT

Looking at ordering a cs700 stock but am struggling between the skeleton and standard stock. Which one do you like better?

Has anybody here used these? What speeds do they like? Are they accurate? I’m sure they are pretty hard hitting. Got out of shooting slugs and looking for a substitute for the larger critters

I have been watching this Tik Tok challenge closely. I will let you look up the latest incident which is going to hit national news, but kids have been doing this challenge all over the country (U.S.).

This will probably create more air rifle restrictions at the local level.

I am looking for some advice on which of these two pistol should i get. Mainly i would be using it for backyard target shooting. Probably would start using it for pest control. If you can give me some pros and cons of each of these pistol I would greatly appreciate it.

When many people see precision BR setups, they don’t really understand the challenges of the game.

This picture shows the 2 main challenges pretty well.

The first challenge is to get your equipment in order so it’s as accurate, predictable in the wind, and reliable as possible. No small feat. The left picture is a 25 shot group at 50y with only a center hold. This illustrates how a good setup should move in the wind. No unusual ups or downs….just a nice horizontal band.

The second challenge is to read your wind flags to determine the amount and placement of hold necessary to put your shot in the middle. The right picture is 25 shots in the same conditions holding off for the wind based on flag positions.

Nobody attains good scores with only one of the two components.

Purchased a Taipan Veteran Tactical in .25 from Talon Tunes (great seller and service ) but most important is how stellar this PCP is. I mounted a US Optics TS-6X with FX no limit 30 mm rings and 3 shots later it was zeroed at 50 yards. More play to come. This is a solid PCP, albeit the first gun I’ve owned that you cock at the shoulder. Lots of fun and very simple to use! A bipod really makes a difference with this beast.

This is the first time I've shot using night scope and I wanted to shoot at night before heading to the farm tomorrow night

It's a compact impact mk2 .177

I think my focus might have been a little off but I shot these just now in dark

35 yards

Two 5 shot groups shooting jsb .177 13.43 at 905 fps

The rats are going to hell tomorrow night

2 are untouched , 1 has 10 removed from it.

So 290 slugs.

I will take $40 shipped or trade for 2 tins of either jsb .177 13.43 pellets or .22 18.13 pellets.

PayPal ff or add fees

Pickup in ct or MA for 30 dollars

First off I want to give a HUGE shout out and thank you to FX Airguns for supporting this deep dive testing into a topic of big bore airgun terminal performance and choosing the right ammo based on the game animal you are targeting.

As big game hunting grows and more states across the United States legalize big bore airgun hunting for Deer and other large game animals, I have been wanting to make this video for the last few years as we see more manufacturers start getting into big bore calibers .357 and higher.

I am going to make a bold statement and FPE is NOT everything you need to consider when targeting larger game animals. You 100% need to understand the terminal performance of your slugs and ammo. In layman's terms, what is that slug doing at the point of impact and into and hopefully THROUGH the game animal.

I've been testing the FX Impact .35 cal liners since they were released a few years ago and slinging pellets it has been wicked accurate. As a big bore airgun hunter though I have been waiting for the Superior Heavy slug liner to see how it performs on medium and with the right ammo selection, larger game animals.

FX Airguns has really perfected the art of barrel liner R&D and they absolutely NAILED the precision with this new slug liner. I have also had the FX Hybrid slugs in .35 for over a year now and testing them in a lot of my other .35 cal airguns seeing the insane amount of energy dumping they provide. But when I was able to finally test them in this new liner I was shocked about the pin point precision they provide.

A lot of airgunners are coming to the .357 caliber from smaller calibers of airguns. As you get up into these "big bore" sizes, that pin point slug on slug precision you expect in your .22 and .25 pellet puffers or slug slingers starts to get exponentially more difficult with heavier and higher caliber projectiles. But again, FX has figured out the secret sauce.

One of the innovative things they did in releasing these very LIGHT for caliber (low sectional density) hybrids slugs is not only does it allow you to sling them very fast around 1000 FPS and with the new PowerBlock and Tungsten Hammer around 1070 FPS, you are dumping a TON of energy in a VERY short amount of penetration.

The Hybrids are a perfect choice of ammo if you don't care about anything being left to salvage if you are hunting for meat with small game animals. It is the PERFECT pesting ammo for larger small game like Prairie Dogs and predator hunting. It dumps over 150 FPE turning into little flying discs of death.

But what got me into big bore airguns .357 and higher was the ability to take larger game like Deer. So I set out to test the effects of hollow points vs. solids in this energy level of big bore airgun. In the last 5 years I have harvested over 2 dozen deer with big bore airguns and have learned A TON about terminal performance of airgun slugs.

My #1 thing to pass on is penetration is KING and expansion is a extra feature if you have enough FPE to get through the important parts and out the back door. Two holes in your game animal will yield a higher probability of recovering that animal and you AT LEAST need to have enough penetration to get through both lungs from all shot angles that you might be taking.

This video is basically the visualization of these concepts and anyone wanting to use the FX Impact M3 .357 on larger game animals needs to watch this video and absorb the information fully for the most ethical hunt possible. Again, HUGE shout out to FX Airguns to work with me to bring you this important information.

Have you ever asked yourself:​

How did I fall down the rabbit hole SO QUICKLY ​

(1) For years I was content to use a handpump to get my PCPs ready for killing.

(2) I had meant to buy a cheap backup pump, but then all corona-hell broke loose, and for two years(!) I couldn't get any airgunning gear to Peru (that'2 where I'm working right now).
Moral A: Buy AG stuff now, Zdon't procrastinate on spending money.


(3) Murphy (with his law) is a US citizen. So, I thought I'm safe living in Peru.
But — he has a cousin in Peru, his name is Fernando, and Fernando's Law is plucked from the same family tree as Murphy's Law.
So, yes, you guessed it. My hand pump broke.
Moral B: No matter where in the world you live, make sure Murphy doesn't have any relatives living there. Otherwise, you're screwed.


(4) I then MacGyvered my AG shooting — to pospone the inevitable to the last possible moment:
I literally shoot my PP700 until the pressure in the air cylinder was so low that it couldn't hold the valve shut anymore, and the pitiful rest of air escaped in one long pfffffft!
But not before propelling one last JSB into the body of a feral pigeon.

How I managed to keep my scope adjusted to the ever changing MV? ➔ Tactacam in slomo showed me the exact pellet drop in mil, and I adjusted for it before taking my next shot.

Moral C: If the forces of nature and the powers to be gang up against your airgunning hobby: Improvise!



(5) The pfffffft announced the inevitable:
I had to buy an airtank (since handpumps sold in Peru are a bad investment, $100 for made in China junk).
It cost me dearly. Ouch!
My dear wife was nice about it.
Moral D: It's nice to have a nice wife when you're an airgunner.


(6) That wallet-devastating trip down airtank alley was just a few months ago.
I certainly did not expect to find myself looking for a compressor NOW!!
That was slated for the end of this decade....

But here we are — looking down the precipice of compressor alley.
Just months after splurging on my first air tank.

Moral E: When it rains, it pours. (That's even true in the desert where I live, go figure.)



(7) How did I get myself into that conundrum?
When I was going to get my first refill of my shiny new tank — I almost dropped it on the tile floor....
The local dive shops have jacked up their prices as if the Corona China Virus made air a scarce resource.
Or as if Russia's tanks shut down the air pipeline to Europe....

Moral F: Don't trust the communists, no matter if they come with Russian of Chinese flavor.

---

So, now you know how I slid down the rabbit hole much much quicker than anticipated.
You know there's a moral in that as well....


Your turn:
What shoved you into the AG rabbit hole?
What lubricated your rapid descend down into it?

Matthias



PS: If you think that you are not going down the rabbit hole — well, my psychologist has a term for that. He calls it "denial."
