N/A  PCP Hold, does it matter?

Explain to me how Ted is able to shoot like this and hit the mark everytime.. ive been getting fliers indoors (12yrds).. not like ragged hole groups, like 2 through the same hole than 1 an inch off.. pellets: 177, Crosman Ultra Magnums 10.5, Norma 9.1, Norma 8.4, Crosman HP 7.9 All washed, weighed and inspected.. Rest: Offhand artillery hold, rested artillery hold, forearm or bag/holding rear, bipod/holding forearm, bipod/holding rear, front on solid rest/rear on bag.. Hold: tight or loose front hand or trigger hand.. Current Tune: 2000psi 820 fps 10.5g ES-23 SD-7.. 3 12rd mags.. Barrel: before and after cleaning and improving existing crown.. ETC. I am not an amateur, i started on break barrels for years and have a pretty good understanding of what im doing/how things work.. That being said, short range fliers like im getting, i dont buy it being caused by heartbeat, breathing, trigger pull, inconsistent hold and so on..

Ted has a bipod and the rear resting on a bag, one hand on the gun, sitting on the ground.. That leads me to believe there are alot more technical issues that are being over looked, causing fliers and blamed on the shooter.. SO, what are those technical issues? Tell me how you fixed/greatly reduced fliers on a gun.. How can Ted just casually glance down at the scope cam, hold on target and hit the mark everytime? multiple times the distance im shooting..

Meanwhile my hatsan at-44 10qe puts them in the same whole for the past 2000+ rounds, weather i take my time and focus on my shot process or try to shoot multiple targets quickly (i dont do that often i was just testing how bad it would shoot, but it didnt..) its almost boring to shoot because no matter what its right on.

It doesnt matter how good the shooter is if the gun isnt doing its part as well.. I am far from the best shooter, but Im confident those wild fliers are not me.. So what are the causes for them? in my rifle or yours.. I want to talk solutions, things that have fixed them.. not hear your negative comments and insults to make you feel good because YOUR gun is shooting "crack on" right now lol

Gotta love ted..

New member and airgun noob

Hi all, I'm Jonas from Texas. I'm just getting into the airgun scene. I grew up shooting on the ranch, but got away from it for years. Now I have a little land I can shoot on, so I thought I'd look into a BB gun to pop mice with. Yes, 3 weeks ago I was about to drop $60 on a Daisy 880. Then the Internet serves up this forum. Mind blown.

Now I want all the PCP bullpups. I know I have to start with one (and a pump of some sort). I'm loving the big bores I'm seeing. I'm not real interested in killing deer, but we do have wild hogs, and I wouldn't mind thinning that little herd out some.

I also like the PCP bullpup small cals. I don't want to hunt small game, but I would like to be able to take care of a nuisance coon or a coyote if I had to. Heck, a smaller big bore would probably be better.

Anyway, I'm deep in the rabbit hole and learning everything I can. I don't want to jump in cheap and waste money while getting a bad taste for the sport. But, I support a whole family on a teacher salary, too, so...I don't want to go wild when I'm not sure how much I'll really get to shoot. Thanks for reading!

Crow carnage U2 style!

A little back story…. On this one beautiful snowy day I was heading outside to do some outdoor chores. As I was putting my coat on I looked out the window and spotted a massive bird about 100 yards away up in the trees. I grab the U2 topped with an ATN 4k Pro and set my sights on him. First impression I thought it was a large raven or possibly a vulture but I couldn’t 100% ID the bird. After watching his demeanor for the next few minutes, I finally realized that I was looking at a juvenile eagle! What a majestic bird!!!
1740597321836.jpeg


So I put the U2 down and power down the scope. I take one step and all of a sudden a mature bald eagle swoops in and lands on the same branch!!!
1740598786486.jpeg

The juvenile takes off to another tree about 75 yards away and thats when the fun began!!!

Crows came in dive bombing and head hunting the mature eagle trying to get it to flee the scene! I couldn’t watch this as our national bird was being harassed, outnumbered and quite frankly, under attack! So I grabbed the trusty U2 and went to work!!!


After the melee, the mature eagle eventually came back and enjoyed the rest of his stay with no shortage of food 👍 5 crows came in and only 1 got away 💀👀

This is the first video that I’ve ever edited so constructive criticism is welcomed! I hope you guys enjoy it ✌️

FYI….NO EAGLES WERE HARMED BEFORE, DURING, OR AFTER THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO….EVER!!!

Tuning  .338 barrel blank

I picked up a .338 barrel blank years ago. Had been sitting a while before I got it. Bore is clean but plenty of surface rust on the outside. No big deal because it still fits inside a shroud I have. I'll and off the rust. Treat the surface and leave it full diameter for weight. I want to build a long range tethered rig. I have all the parts just no ammo. Who here makes or could recommend consistent size, weight in .338 for me to buy and test. I have a 280cc plenum so power isn't an issue.

It's 25" finished so I'm guessing mid 200fpe is about max power. That would need a slug around 125gr at 950fps.

PCP Rifle  SOLD AGT Uragan .25 (reduced)

Selling my .25 Uragun capable of shooting the NSA 34 grains at 1100 fps. Its a monster of a pcp and was able to place mid pack out of 13 shooters at my local NR22 match. The Uragun has a huma regulator and turned by the man himself Derek Wall. Asking $900 shipped CONUS with the Donny, three mags, and a single shot loader. If out of the US, I'll work with you. Accept PP FF or add 5% for G&S. I'll throw in your choice of an Aztec 5.5-25X50, Vector 3-12x44 FFP, or Discover 10x44 to sweeten the deal. I will also add an FX 30mm no-limit rings to the deal

I just shot the Uragan over the chronograph and its shooting the NSA 33.5 for 28 shots Av-962 ES- 10 SD-5. JSB 34 for 29 shots AV- 987 ES-9 SD-4. When I first got the Uragan from Derek, it was tuned for NSA 55.5 grains but I wanted a lighter flatter slug.

Beeman  Does anybody NOT not like .22 HW barrels?

Anybody out there NOT not like (i.e., LIKE) their HW .22 spring gun? Seems I've heard more complaints about loose fitting pellets and mediocre accuracy than accolades.

I haven't shot this Huntington Beach R1 in over a year. Had to remember how to hold it, lol. First group was not so good, second group was better, this third group was decent enough to post and maybe start a discussion with. Five shots in a 3/8 inch c.t.c. group at 23 yds. with a sixth "oops" shot. I know it can do better so may try again tomorrow. Problem is it isn't a hold one would use in the field.

Who can post pics of some great HW .22 spring gun groups for motivation? Gotta be a few tack drivers out there.

Bootleg Accu-Tac?

Hello folks.
So I just opened my box to on this bootleg Accu-Tac bipod that I bought for the heck of it, It was $20 shipped from EBay hah. A tad less than the $420 for the real ones. I know that you get what you pay for but I couldn’t help it :)
First impressions: I’m pretty surprised to be honest. China has came a long way in not that many years… Everything is aluminum, brass, or what looks to be - shocker - cheap round steel, not squared for the lug. The lock up mechanism works and is surprisingly stout. The legs pull , move, and snap into position positively, I wrenched on them a bit in opposite directions and they held steady. The leg extensions do as they should and lock solidly into place. It has spring retraction of the leg extensions. I forgot but I think the real ones are the opposite. The tension knob is a bit questionable as to how it will hold. The feet are smooth slick plastic so no grip there on smooth surfaces.
I’m waiting for the weather to turn so I can get out but wondered if anyone else has tried these bootleg bipods with any luck? Or any horror stories?
I’m just going to use it on a table/etc so it’s not going to live an extreme life.
Enjoy your day!

Air Tanks  WTS 88 cu ft ( 60 minute) SCBA tank $235

Selling this "new old stock" tank. DOM of 01/ 03 , this tank is 22 years old ! But to look at it , it has seen little use . In fact , it has never had it's first re-certification .
Needless to say , this tank has been a back up unit that was never put into service. I replaced the SCBA valve with an air gun fill station , after thoroughly vetting the tank . Selling for $235 plus shipping to the conus only. I use Pirate Ship and do not pad the shipping costs. I use these tanks as well as my friends. They are good to go !. But , you must have you're own compressor that is capable of filling a large tank . No commercial entity will fill this for you . To comply with DOT regulations , the tank will be shipped empty . Use at you're own risk ! Not interested in trades or offers at this time. Please deal by PM. Thanks for looking , Herb....................................PS , this is the last 60 minute tank I have to sell.

Brocock/BRK  You're all time "go to" air rifle ?

I've probably posted this before, but my all time favorite air rifle is the Brocock Bantam Sniper. I've had a standard version, bought from a member here a long time ago, and even though I've toyed with selling it, I've never gone though with it, as it is just too good. I've shot some of the best groups I've ever shot with this rifle. I can pick this gun up, even months since shooting it, and it will hit right where you airm and the velocity is right on.
Time passes and guns come and go and I found a good deal on a Bantam Sniper HR Magnum 22, and since it has a different polygonal rifled barrel on it, I thought I'd give it a try. To say it shoots as good as my standard is a gross understatement. It is one of the best shooting airguns I've ever shot. It is consistently easy to shoot one hole groups. After trying and finally settling on a scope for it, a Hawke Airmax 30 SF 10X, I was able to shoot two back to back < 1" groups at 70 yards, resting my elbow on the retaining wall in the driveway, with a mild breeze blowing. Holy cow! this thing is easy to shoot. It was shooting quite hot when I got it, sending 18.1 gr pellets at 990 fps, so I turned it down a bit to just under 900 fps and it can do an es of 6 fps. What a rifle!

I dolled it up a bit with a cerekote stock and barrel shroud I had and some decals.
I know, nothing is right without a picture, so here it is.
