PCP Rifle  SOLD .35 Kalibrgun Cricket $850

Selling this beautiful cricket .35 only because my buddy and I have no need for it. Primarily we hunt iguanas as it's our main job, but even in large game hunting we use our PB or the Texan .457 so it doesn't really have a place. Before today I shot it a few minths ago in a post I made where I shot a couple Egytian geese (neausance removal) I shot it again today and it was shooting the 68gr Hybrids betwee. 810 and 820, you can adjust the hammer to make 115fpe with this gun which is sending the 68gr at 870fps. It really likes the hybrids and the polymags, I haven't tested any other pellets as they wouldn't go above 800fps and being that this is .35 expansion is important for me. The gun is regulated to 200-205b and can be filled to 300b and it will give you 19-20 shots. I have 2 mags, they're both 8 round mags and the hybrids will fit, but not snug and the polymags are too long. The mags are pellets mags like your typical cricket mags are.

Selling for $850 Shipped, or also willing to trade.

N/A  First PCP gun

Hey guys, just getting into air rifles. Coming from the archery world. I have a Benjamin steel eagle break barrel, that I have been using for fun and taking out some pests around my property. But looking for suggestions for a good hunting PCP gun. I have been looking at the Gamo Urban, Air Venturi Avenger, and a local guy has a Kral arms Puncher Breaker. Just wondering which route to go.

Other  PCP Pistol/Carbine

Hello,

I'm looking to buy a PCP pistol/carbine. I'm looking between .25 or .30 caliber (Preferred), achieving 30-40 fpe, and ready out of the box or minimal tuning. I'm not sure if it's possible but hoping someone has some experience/knowledge that can name a few PCP pistol/carbine or share something close to it. I have the Notos and Benajmin PROD (with the tactical Buck rail folding stock) but both are in .22 and I want a high caliber.

I have thought about the Huben GK1 with buying aftermarket parts but I'd have to invest in a pump that can pump up to 5000 PSI..
I've looked at the RAW MicroHunter in .25, but from the spec sheet, it's not reaching 30 fpe
I've also looked at the Brocock Atomic XR Air Pistol in .25 but it doesn't list the max FPS/FPE.

Any other PCP Pistol/carbine I should look at?

  • Question
FX  FX

I have several decisions to make. I would like to purchase a new FX Wildcat compact m3, my question is should I get the BT or tube gun, and also am trying to decide whether to swap barrels on my Impact from .22 to a .25 and get the wildcat in .22 0r get the wildcat in .25. Either way I would like to end up with both a .22 and .25. I am leaning to the wildcat tube gun in .22. Any thoughts ?

My steam punk pellet trap. 👍

Had to make a new pellet trap as the old one started to show severe signs of wear. After some thinking I came up with the idea of forcing the pellet to fly through a bend to slow it down before it hits the back stop. Works just as intended. Catches .25 pellets as if they were cotton. I'm really happy with this little project. And it looks like a steam punk device that could have been in Brazil (the movie), that's a big plus! 🥳
Never mind the tripod, that was just what I had at hand for the testing. I'm going to mount it on something much stronger and sturdier.

Can we see some honest opinions

I like to shoot 100 M target rings with my Impact MK2 which I am considering outperforms the current M3 stock rifle with all of these my internal tweaking and upgrades. Not saying exterior cosmetics but the tuning capabilities and performance.

Whenever I am tuning I usually shoot five groups in a 5x5 target paper (at 100 M) and basing my decisions from there, and almost a full tin in a session.

Using a one piece rest or a front tripod with rear rest, no bipods and no bags where a user can induce more/less errors.
I have three .25x700 and two .25x600 liners, and with widely available off the shelf pellets (JSB 34gn MK1's and MK2's).

The average group size with pellets is about 1.5 MOA @ 100, yes there are a lot of MOA as well but I don't like to talk about best case scenario, lets talk average out of per say 125 shots per paper. With slugs I have not seen evidence so far those can outperform the pellets up to 100.

Watching these threads about custom built swaging dies both pellets and slugs and wondering about cost to performance ratios.

Anybody can share a honest story that the DIY (custom built) pellets or slugs can outperform the POI ?

From my engineering tinkering perspective I feel that the current mainstream pellets shapes are not designed to be shot @ 100 ??? be that a .25 or .22 ...

I am asking this question out of my frustration and not to offend any placebo opinions.

Tuning  I cannot recall seeing this before

Yesterday afternoon about 5pm I toke my gear and headed out to my gun club for some 100 M fun with my MK2.
About 32-34C and the air was "thick" already and soon enough a rain started just sipping, not heavy to soak but enough to feel more comfortable shooting out of shed.
After maybe a hundred shot I noticed a white "smoke" started coming out from muzzle and the eaglevision airstripper.
I am tethering from a larger 147cc scba tank...First thought that I was not careful enough last time couple days ago refilling the bottle for tethering and maybe the YH water separator let a larger amount of moisture to the tank. (I have the orange dual towers, btw, and for years these were working flawless). Last week I had an oring bust on that tank valve and I empty the tank for service and top it up again from bare zero... It was a bit longer work party and maybe me did a mistake?
To make sure an hour ago I went to a garage, removed the bottle from the bag and place it in a big bin holding it vertically, if any water inside to sit close to the valve.
Minutes ago I opened the tank valve for tests, and no white vapor is coming out with the released HPA. So that is off the hook.
How to call this phenomena?

FX  DRS Classic .25 , loaded 3 slugs into barrel, how to remove

Hi all
i've done bit of a rookie error with my first air rifle, without going into detail i've loaded 3 fx hybrid slugs into the barrel. is there a way i can remove these? maybe a long piece of plastic that i can slide down the barrel to push the slugs through? or is it safe to just fire these 3 slugs out.

Theoben  Theoben seals

Whilst on the British Airgun Forum I saw that Brit Seals would be making various replacement seals for Theoben. I confirmed this with Brit Seals - they will be making a few different seals for Theoben airguns. I was instructed to "keep a keen eye out". Details as to which seals would be offered was not given me. Also, I believe that Brit seals ships to the US.

Halo’s? Alright, maybe.

Let’s have at it, lol! But definitely stay constructive! This is not a halo- whenever it shows, hit job. To me, IMHO, they are slugs with big hollow point. Ok. We have tons of slug options. I, however, love specialty ammo, polymags, nuclear- what I call hades and atomics, along with hunter extreme and hunter, CPHP and so on. Notice no standard dome pellets. Which shooters use successfully with pests. I just key in on the enhanced hunter/killer pellets. Hit with a brick, but not go through the roof of permission or neighbor house. Like slugs would. So after that ramble, where is the halo going? Not sure I “Feel it” with them.

Greetings From West of Rainbow

Just dropping a greetings thread from a forum newbie. I joined in 2020, but have never posted.
My name is Mike. Eventually my user name will be Moke. I've just requested a change.

I'm from northern San Diego county, at the most northward point, Fallbrook (the big town in the area). I like to think I'm from Rainbow Ca, as I live within the Rainbow Creek canyon tributary to the Santa Margarita river. So, West of Rainbow.

greetings all.

Scope problems?

Start off zeroed, 50 rounds within an inch at 35 yards, come back in an hour shooting 3 inches low, adjust, back to 50 rounds within an inch. Come back in an hour 3-4 inches high, back and forth back and forth, up and down, up and down. Its as if the heat of the day affects it that much.

I think I need a better scope.

This is what I bought, its 2 weeks old.

Daystate  Daystate has just moved up to #1 in my book

I have been having fun with the cooler weather the last few days here in Oklahoma City and been sitting out on the back porch, with my Starling deeks spread out over the yard and shooting my .177 Daystate Mk4. I am shooting on Power 2 and this thing is like shooting a laser beam. The trigger is so good it is fast becoming my favorite back yard rifle. I also own an Airwolf .22 with that same great trigger and deadly accuracy, shot after shot. The bolt action is so smooth and the Rowan single shot loader makes this type of shooting a pleasure. The Minelli wood stocks on these rifles is a work of art. The two rifles are at the top of my list of backyard friendly rifles. Silent but deadly. Starlings don't have a chance. BTW, I think everyone should have at least one electronic Daystate in their collection. I found both of these rifles right here in our classifieds and though they are older rifles with the MCT technology, they are all you need to have a blast sniping those Starlings.

Brocock/BRK  New rifle came with 300cc bottle, not the advertised 480cc!

I just got my BRK Sniper XR Sahara in .22 cal. As I was shooting it, I noticed the bottle looked small for the advertised 480cc. Sue enough, on the bottle - 0.3L. My first thought was that I had messed up and it only came with a 300cc bottle, but low and behold, when I checked, it states right there on the store's web site - 480cc. The bottle on the web site's picture even looks longer relative to the end of the barrel, compared that the one I have on my rifle.

The store I bought it from is closed, so I will of course, ask them in the morning. This is a brand new rifle bought from a reputable dealer, so I'm sure there is some logical explanation.

It's just so weird! Did this rifle once come with a 300cc bottle and I just got sent and old copy? Shot count was one of the main reasons I went with this rifle!

  • Question
FX  FX liner lock nut (jam nut) sanity check -- how tight?

I know the answer to the question "how tight should my jam nut be" is going to depend on liner length, caliber, fpe at the muzzle, whether the rifle is using o-rings as spacers between the liner and the barrel housing or a carbon fiber spacer instead. There are probably a lot of other things to take into consideration that I'm not even thinking of. And I know that a lot of the answers are going to be given in terms of how many turns after hand tight rather than torque specs -- either one is fine with me. I just need a sanity check.

I've got an fx maverick 30 cal sniper with a 1:18 twist liner and a carbon fiber spacer between the liner and the barrel housing. I'm shooting nsa 54.5 grain slugs at about 950 fps, but might go to 980 fps. Either way that's in the 109 fpe to 116 fpe range. The liner is trying to spin the slug to the right, but if the jam nut is too loose, then the liner will slip (spin) to the left. I want the jam nut to be tight enough to prevent the liner from slipping, but I don't want to bend my liner. I can't really tell if the liner is slipping or not and there doesn't seem to be any way to know for sure.

Currently I'm tightening my jam nut 1/16th of a turn after fully hand tightening, but I'm wondering if that's really enough -- is 1/8th of a turn OK without bending the liner?

The FX motto "not too tight -- not too loose" causes irreversible insanity.
