Was going over some old PM's looking up some info in discussions with other members when I saw the date / time stamp on some and it was like HOLY SH*T! That was 3 years ago? I remember it like it was maybe last year. Don't think so? Go access your PM's and scroll back to page 9 or more and see! Some will laugh, others will shake their head!

How can I edit or close a WTS posting?
I can't edit it but also can't close it. And there is no help post on top of the forum...

I have a .177 HW95 that I am considering swapping out the barrel with a HW95 .22 barrel from Chambers. Is this a good or bad idea? Will there be any accuracy or fit and finish issues? The rifle is basically brand new, less than a tin of pellets through it. Tom tuned it for 15 fpe and it shoots very smoothly.

OR

Start all over and sell the tuned .177 HW95 and buy a new from the factory .22 HW95 and have it tuned?

Which is the best option?

For Sale: 10 new, unopened tins of JSB .177 cal 8.44 grain pellets with 4.53 head size. $130 for the lot ($13 per tin) shipped to your door in foam cutout packaging. Payment via PayPal, $130 in my pocket, so send friends and family or you cover any fees. I will also accept Venmo or Zelle. Prefer local pickup in DFW but will ship in the US. You can contact me via PM.
Thanks, Jeff Cloud

Does anyone actually know the deal? Have extensive testing experience? Are they all the same thing, or do they differ?

I've read everything from "AAs are a special die only used for their pellets" to "single batch run normal JSBs" to "pure white label, same damned thing."

What's the deal?

This tripod case fits 6.8 liter tanks snug its nicely padded on all sides, here is a link get the 25.5 inch long by 7 inches wide bag https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L3RZGL3?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

For those that have made the plunge, and that own other great air rifles, how does the Skout Epoch compare in terms of performance and accuracy? Do you own anything but .30 caliber? If you had it so do over again knowing what you know now, would you purchase it compared to other high end alternatives?

Thanks,

Hey everyone.
I ran across a guy by the name of Allen Zasadny. I know by reading forms that people love him or hate him.
So after several months, I was able to convince him to let me shoot some video while he talked about his favorite things, airguns.
I spent several days camping out on his dirt road while he finished up an FX Impact for me. I might be new to air but not firearms. I live a mobile life style so an airgun would make a nice addition. I'm tired of Karen calling the Rangers just to tell them I have rights when shooting. (You know how people are today about scary guns)
Keep in mind this guy has been working on air guns for nearly 40 years and he is turning 70 this year so he likes his privacy. It took a lot of convincing to get him to agree to make the video. If you have ever talked to him and he seemed rude on the phone. Then you should put yourself in his shoes for a day. He is building himself a house, PLUS the guy is turning 70 this year. So selling and building LOTS guns are not the first thing on his list. (Trust me, I wanted to build him a website. He doesn't want to deal with what it brings) He is verry picky when it comes to taking on new work. At the moment, he does most of his gun work in the evenings and through the winter months when he can't work outside. For a 70 year old guy, he will work circles around you. He works as hard as a guy in his 30s.

So enjoy the information.
I can only hope it helps you understand how you should think about your airgun.

Fx Crown MK2 600mm shooting .22 25gr pellets 920fps at 100yd benchrest. Had some crazy flights. It would travel most of the way to the target in a nice arch then the last second it would spin off crazy to one direction or another by several inches. It was very erratic. Didn’t happen everytime. Only a handful of times but it was enough to cost me points.
Im shooting the stock setup and liner. Wondering if the speed needs to be higher or slower as maybe it’s destabilizing then? No issues at 50yd, stacks em.

Is AOA the only place to purchase EVOL magazines or are there any other recommended outlets to procure them?

-PJ

Im going to PAC and will have this with me!

Where are all the vids/reviews on this rifle? Doesn’t seem to be many on the internet and the ones on there are in another language…been thinking about pulling the trigger on one @ talon tunes, anybody in here have one? Just wondering if it’s worth the extra money or just buy a discounted older version one from Utah.. decisions, decisions

While digging in my powder burner safe I found this little jem I had, forgot how fun of a little plinker it was, it’s a custom marauder I got cheap from Will Piatt’s wife on here for like $200, custom heavy barrel, single shot only, .177, I should dig a little deeper in the safe I might find more lol, was looking through my safe to sell a powder burner or two to fund this airgun addiction but I couldn’t bring myself to selling any

This is the only photo I got last night as I shut my phone in the hatch of my focus and totally destroyed the screen.

Compare the size of these to that wheel barrow tire. They were taken at 35 - 45 yards with 15.89 hades out of my .22 huben last night.

Hi. Im most likely to buy a crown mk2 this coming week in .177.

Synth compact (400mm) barrel
Synth regular (480mm) barrel
Or the GRS (500mm) barrel.

I Will at some point in the future buy the 600mm barrel, I mainly shoot 30 - 75meters a few times on 100. Will the 400mm barrel handle that?

Ole

Well, let me paint the picture of what happened to me this Saturday. It is 1:25am now as I am typing this story to share.

The rain finally stopped around 1pm today and I decided to stop by one of my permissions to see if I can do some target shooting and maybe at a few pigeons.
I got to the site around 3:30pm, packed with my FX Crown and Impact. Upon arriving, I saw a bunch of pigeons resting on the roof of one of the barns. Unfortunately I have to drive up to that barn where I normally setup to target shoot into the field. They flew off and scattered elsewhere.

I set up my table and got my target box and spinners out at 50 yards to check my zero. I was shooting my Crown with 18gr AA pellets. After adjusting to the wind pushing from right to left, I was able to confirm my POI was spot on again hitting my 8 spinner targets in a row from 2-1/2" down to the 1/2" size. My Crown never ceased to amaze me with its accuracy.

Happy with my POI check, I grabbed my Primos Trigger stick tripod along with my range finder and proceeded to do some pigeons shoot. I quickly found a few of them gathering on the roof of the adjacent building. I slowly walked towards them and hided behind the concrete barrier and set up my tripod. Used my range finder and lasered them at around 45-55 yards. Turned my elevation turret to 50 yards, powered on my SideShot and had one pigeon in my cross hair. Quickly adjust the parallax to get a clear focus and chambered an 18gr pellet. I was ready to shoot. Well, not quite. My breathing was out of sync as I was both excited to be out shooting again and out of practice for a while. The cross-hair was swirling around the pigeon like a tornado.

I took a few deep breath and calmed my nerve down. The pellet was sent flying downrange and it smacked the first pigeon square in the chest. Some pigeons have flew off but a few were dumb enough to hang around. I quickly chambered another pellet and got on target. This time there wasn't any hesitation in my part and another pellet launched thru the 500mm barrel at 880fps. Another solid hit to the chest. What? Another pigeon still available to give me a chance of a "Hat Trick"? Another smack to the chest of the third pigeon. Wow, I was both shocked and pleased with the outcome. I was grinning with pride and satisfied with my tool and my marksmanship. These pigeons were later picked up by an eagle that was eyeing them from afar.

No, this wasn't the part in regards to my title. Let me continue.

As I patrolled around the farm, I came across a large deceased diary cow left at the back of the barn. I texted the farmer and he told me that the cow had broke her leg and died. What a tragedy and a lost to the farmer. I asked him what was to be done with the body and he told me that someone will pick it up on Monday. Wait a minute, the cow would be left on the farm for two nights. This was an unplanned and wonderful opportunity for me to use it as bait to hunt the coyotes in this location. I was trying to get my Coyote#7 at this farm back in March when there was a still born calf. So I asked the farmer if he minds that I come back in the evening and give it a go. I got a thumbs up emoji.

I continued to shoot for another hour and tagged two more pigeons with my Crown before taking out my Impact MK2 to double check my zero. Using the target box and my DIY spinners, I was able to verify my 50 yards zero was spot on again. The H&N 25gr Gen2 slugs were pounding the steel spinners with authority. I then set up the targets out to 90 yards as I never got to finish my zero test last time out. After a few POI validation, the spinners were spinning with the impacts from these slugs. I was feeling confident and excited to hunt tonight.

So I packed up and went home around 7pm. Did a quick walk with my dog and headed back out to the farm after a quick bite.

I got to the farm at 9pm. Parked my truck 47 yards with a direct view to the dead cow. Mounted my trail cam on the pipe facing the bait. This will help me monitor any activity that might happen in the night. I then setup inside my truck with the window opened. My Impact was fitted with my Pard007S with an external 850IR light mounted on the side of the rail. Chambered a slug and I was ready.

The first hour went by quickly as I was mainly taking a nap knowing that the coyotes might not be able to smell and locate this dead cow yet. Then 12am came around and nothing happened. I continued to scan the area with my binoculars and no sight of any coyotes.

12:25am I decided to pack it up, feeling dejected and disappointed. But I knew hunting coyote was very challenging as I need to have plenty of luck and timing. I was going to give it another try Sunday night. After everything was packed up, I turned on my truck engine and put up my head lights. WTF! My new 14000 Lumens head lights that I recently installed lit up the area in front of me. What did I see with these super bright headlights?

Yup, a freaking coyote walking towards me at about 35-40 yards. It was blinded by my headlights and paused where it stood. We were both startled and surprised.

So, the first word uttered out of my mouth was..., no, not duck and ya. I quickly turned off the head lights and killed my engine. Well, with modern vehicle, the console light lid up inside my cabin like a flash bomb illuminating me like a Fourth of July fireworks. Of course I couldn't see where the coyote had gone, but I am sure it hightailed his ass out of there as quick as you could say SH@T.

I thought this was going to be a good night consider how my day went. But now my cover was blown and if the coyote was smart, it would not be coming back anytime soon.

I will check on the trail cam and the bait tomorrow morning to see if any coyote feast on the large platter of steak.

Sorry for the long winded story, but let me know what your first word would be if this happened to you. LOL.

I have a Dreamline classic .30. For the last few months I’ve had the regulator pressure set around 100 (I know it’s low) with my scope perfectly zeroed. Today I decided to take the reg pressure up to ~145. I anticipated that my POI would creep up, as it has in the past when I’ve raised the reg pressure. Instead, my POI dropped so substantially that I don’t even have enough downward elevation on my scope to sight in. Is this unusual? My experience and instinct says that if anything, the opposite should be happening (pellet is traveling faster, dropping less for a greater distance, hitting higher.) Not sure what I’m missing. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
