Last time I was on the range I had zeroed my scope and I was taking shots further and further out.

And then all of a sudden, I lost zero.

At the time I didn't understand what was going on but now that I'm home and have time to look closely at the scope, I see it had drifted in the rings until the rings made contact with a the flared-out end of the scope body.

Other than torquing the scope rings to the correct amount, what do people do if their scope drifts? Is there a reason to avoid a tiny dab of loctite on the scope body or rings?

For context, all my childhood I shot rifles only with iron sights. Scopes are fancy, rich-person handicap devices!

I bought a few buttons from ARH that I thought I might use in my old Barakuda. I assumed they were "peel and stick", but apparently they are not. What does one use to adhere these things to the piston skirt?

I'm new here. Any tips to trading on the forum?

Any suggestions for a compressor that would be best with minimal use? Something that doesn't need to be run often but will still be reliable.

What is the best optic that is price friendly that packs a lot of features short range a little long range

I have really become a fan of the 50gr H&N Slug II ammo shooting out of my FX Maverick VP .30cal. It just does a fantastic number on groundhogs and flies very accurately!

Is there a way to take the play out of the cocking shoe to make the breech seal seal better? Thanks Jimmy

All,

Parting with one of the .30 RAW I recently picked up. This is an original .30 with the large offset moderator, beautiful blue stock with lower rail and 3 RAW magazines. Typical RAW accuracy!

Looking for trades for other high end PCP air rifles…..

I have an unregulated FX Royale 400
If I install a Huma regulator, what do I do to provide the necessary venting.
Are there any other considerations when doing the task?

I'd really like to hear from folks that have done this.

Thanks
Edward

Got another Edgun in the flock thanks to a fellow AGN member . Put a few magazines through it to sight in the new Arken EPL 4-16. It is tuned for 15g Hades and is very accurate with them. My only challenge with it so far is getting used to handling the plastic mags and the mag disconnect feature, which I really don't forsee using much. The Bat mod sounds differently than I'm used to from a moderator (STO's). No really a muffled sound just a quieter pop and the sound of the hammer/valve doing their thing. Oh, and the sound of lead hitting the rubber mulch target is very distinctive even at 37yds. The trigger has a lot of 1st stage travel but still breaks clean, light and predictable.

Yesterday I had lazer surgery on my shooting eye.
A few months ago I kept cleaning my glasses, until I realized it wasn’t my glasses. Went got eyes checked. Cataracts. Right eye , my shooter eye. If I waited much longer I’d be using a white cane.
Today I shot a R9 and a HW98 both .20 cal. Wow WOW Wow. What a difference. Feel like Steve Austin. What a difference.
‘This evening I took out one of my favorite plinkers. HW77 .25. My glasses are on the table. I was awake and watched the surgery, amazing procedure. Got the whole package, can read as well. Here’s where is gets good.
For years I’ve been cutting cans in half in as few shots as possible. Mushroom size can is the official size. I was at 39, 34, 55. All over, the best for me was 27 at 30 yds. This can I dropped 21 rounds with Hades and the 77. And 35 yds. Only wasted 2 shots. New record
‘Anyone putting this surgery off, for me, massive difference. Don’t need the glasses any more either.
Lead is going to fly. Crow

This is near mint with the exception of some scratches on the shroud from removal. This has seen roughly 500 rounds. I sent it to the tuner and after getting it back it has sat in the case ever since. I don't have plans to use it so up it goes. 1 of my shot strings before it went to the tuner for build out.

Does Steve report or provide Video of events like the big three?, I haven’t seen a full report of a big event for awhile, or do you have to subscribe to his channel to view?

I took this shot this morning at work. The panthera has been sitting for weeks collecting dust. So I grabbed it and headed to work knowing the ground squirrels are running around on the property due to the panthera sitting at home the last few weeks. I got setup on a couple barrels that were a little wobbly but steady enough. I had a ground squirrel sitting just outside his hole watching me setup…….bad mistake. I recently bought the vortex range finder with the built in ballistics calculator which makes it easy getting shots off fast. I ranged him and got 80 yds and .9 mil drop. I dialed the mark5 .9 mil and took the shot. The panthera had been sitting weeks and has been handled but not shot even once and even has had a couple bumps to the barrel. Nothing drastic like slamming into a wall but it has been bumped around. No poi issue from the bumps or sitting weeks. The video speaks for itself. Quality is lower since I did this as a short on my phone. The high quality video will make it into my next full video.

Equipment:
Panthera .22 700 mm
H&N .218 34 gr. Hollow point heavies @ 1018 fps.

My FX400 22cal is regulated and I used to average 910 fps with 18.1 grain JSB pellets. Now I average 895 fps. Is my reg bad or what?

So I purchased an air gun from Utah Airguns. Received it and out of the box it was leaking air if filled past 1000 PSI. I was able to call Utah airguns, open a ticket, troubleshot with the rep, and eventually sent the air gun back for them to either replace or fix. When Utah Airguns received it, I got an email stating it was received and will take 3-4 weeks to repair. I find this unacceptable and tried calling in to talk to someone but it seems like it goes straight to their voicemail. I tried calling a few times at different parts of the day but no luck. Are they blocking phone numbers? If they are acting like this, I'd prefer not to do business with them. I'm pretty disappointed because so many folks has recommended them. But none the less, what are your thoughts?

I have been looking for a 22 cal LGV Master Pro for about 7 -8 years now. I always check AoA preowned guns every week for updates. Yesterday I checked and they had a 177 & 22 cal LGV Master Pros. I grabbed the 22 ASAP. That completes my set of 177 & 22 LGUs and LGVs.

So my Maverick went back for warranty right out of the box, the regs wouldn't go up past 100 or so bar unless they creeped up past.
Next I'm shooting after I get it back and the gun cocks but won't close/fully load a projectile or release the magazine, that's a magazine issue. Keep a allen wrench handy so you can continually make sure the screw in center of the magazine is snug.
Point of impact, I have installed the carbon fiber liner sleeve, tried a barrel band. Every time I pull it out of the case it needs the sight tweaked one way or another, then it holds until next time. Onto last night...
Installed new sight and rings. Went outside and set up a (large) target to sight in. Set up at my bench and load a round (now equipped with a CARM single shot tray)and fire. Seems really low but I dial it up and take another shot, getting close. Another shot closer still. Next shot, BANG! that made my ears ring, didn't hit the target. Look the gun over, nothing looks out of place, load another round....you guessed it. BANG! Now the gun won't cock, the charging handle makes the full motion but doesn't set the trigger. Check the linkage and a set screw is missing. Pull the cheek riser and probe is lined up with the set screw in the hole.
So I start checking tightness of screws, first one-power wheel is about to come out, I snug it down. Still won't cock. Move the power wheel from 7 to 6....it cocks, shoots. Back to 7, won't cock. Back in the house. Turn micro adjust screw in one turn and it will now cock on setting 7. Went another half turn in for safe measure and called it a night. To say I'm not impressed with the quality of such an expensive rifle when there are so many others out there is an understatement. FX won't be getting anymore of my money. I guess I'll know this platform forward and back before I give up on it.
Thanks for reading my rant
