I know most of you already know a lot of this info but thought we'd toss it out there for the best damn airgun community on the net. Maybe you'll pick up something you didn't expect
Choosing a Scope
Mounting a Scope

I just ran across this weird looking slug, and I wonder if anyone has ever had a chance to shoot some? It's supposed to have this hollow rear end which allows the round to flare and adhere to the barrel better like the skirt of a pellet.

I don't know if this new fangled ammo is even worth a try.

Thoughts?

In the tuning process for CPHP's with my new to me Impact Mk2 and these 2 just happened to sit in a tree at 37yds. Looks like it will shoot.

Anyone have any experience with the kaliburgun cricket tactical 2 45 in 177 cal curious as to your thoughts...?

I have a FX Dream tact in 25 I traded for a while back from a member on AGN here's the information I got from him 600mm slug liner H barrel, dual TP, titanium valve seat, huma gauges, dual power plenums, 2 mags and a Luth-AR stock and Donnyfl moderator. It shoots great no problems just need to sell it. Asking $1100 shipped...Thanks Terry

Comments on my Semi-Auto Air rifles - Updated​

So what’s changed in the approx 18 months since I started my Semi-Auto journey, and do I now have a different perspective on the guns than I had when I wrote my original post on the topic in September 2021. https://www.airgunnation.com/topic/...huben-k1-leshiy-2-and-steyr-pro-x/?referrer=1

Well, some things have changed…

My Edgun Leshiy 2 is now a completely different gun. Its changed from a 350mm barreled .25 caliber gun, with a 300mm bottle, first to a .25 600mm barrel, then to a 350mm .30 caliber rifle, and finally to its current incarnation, a 600mm .30 cal, with a 480cc bottle and a REPR regulator. The longer barrels are all FX Impact barrels using a Sub-12 Airguns adapter. After I put the REPR system in place I changed out the 300cc bottle for a 480cc FX bottle (without a valve) for a larger shot count. The gun is now a powerful thing, generating 95 FPE with a 50.2 grain pellet.
As for looks…well its totally different, but I think it looks great






I still love it, but it’s no longer a short, light, but not extremely powerful woods walker. The FX barreled versions are definitely (in my hands) more consistent and more accurate than the original versions. Whether or not this is due to the nature of the FX liner system, or simply to the fact that I am comparing a 600mm system to the original 350mm barrels I cannot say, since I have never owned a 600 mm Edgun barrel. There is no question that the 600mm barrels deliver more power, as that is the nature of PCP airguns and any 600mm barrel will do that.

I would still prefer a larger magazine capacity, and I still do not love the need to break open the gun in order to change mags (or, in my case, to use my speedloaders). It still is a great handling gun!

The other major change has been the addition of a Steyr Hunting 5A Scout to the stable.

I picked this gun up in the Classifieds last July. I have to say, much as I love my Steyr Pro-X bullpup, this little gem is simply the sweetest handling/pointing rifle I own. I paired it with an Athlon Helos BTR 2-12 scope and it really is just the perfect combination. Virtually everything I wrote about the Steyr Pro-X also applies here, except that I would say that the trigger may be a little better ( and by the way, the trigger on the Pro-X has improved over time with use). The magazine system is different. The Hunting 5 uses a “stick” magazine that holds 5 rounds, as opposed to the circular 10 rounder for the Pro-X.


In my opinion, while the Hunting 5 magazines have worked flawlessly, the Pro-X system is superior.
The accuracy of the rifles is identical. I can see no difference. I must say, as a guy who has, and loves, a bunch of FX rifles, that I I have become a bit of a Steyr fan boy. They are very expensive, they are not flexible, and they certainly are not powerhouses. But they are so very well built, so precise in their controls, so accurate, and just so damned nice to shoot that I put them right up there with all the other favorite rifles that I have.

So much so that I also have a Steyr pistol that I use to practice for my Bullseye matches in my basement (since my wife would object to my blasting away with my Pardini down there )


The final change has been to my Steyr Pro-X, and its really a minor one. I found that the Pic Rail that the gun came with was simpl,y too high for my comfort. While it worked fine, and i shot the gun well, I prefer a lower position for my scopes, or, to put it another way, a tighter cheek weld. So I took the Pic rail off and used a Dovetail to Pic rail adapter to mount the scope. The difference is shown below:
New/Now


Original


My Huben K1 has not changed. Frankly, is remains close to perfect. No leaks, no problems, massive power when I want it, easy plinking when that’s what I prefer. What’s there to change?

Now the question is what next. I am interested in the Western Airguns Rattler and Sidewinder, but I really want to see a little more on these before I drop big bucks on them, plus I need to rebuild my airgun bank account first . For now, I’m pretty happy with what I have and it’s easy to scratch my semi-auto itch whenever I need.

I have placed two different orders for pellets in the last two weeks with The Pellet Shop. The orders were filled on the same day and the pellets were so well packed that not even the USPS could do any damage to them. Thank you .

I own both a Leshiy 2 .30 cal (fx barrel) and fx impact in .177. Love both but looking for a heavy hitter for slugs for 100 yards plus (.30) cal. Was considering another Leshiy 2 but looks like the maverick may fit my needs more? Have killed multiple species of medium sized game at 75 and a bit over with L2. Just curious on opinions….

Selling my Dar Gen 2 177. Great rifle just don't shoot it much with all my other 177's. I am the original owner. Absolutely no issues. Stock wrapped in Mossy Oak Over Watch. Wood under is in like new condition. Comes with a Vector Optics Veyron 4-16x44 FFP, 2 mags, fill probe. Also added lower pic rail for bipod and sling studs. Added a photo of rifle before I wrapped it. Moderator in day pic not included. Shipped in original box. Asking $350/ No scope $250. Shipped in CONUS. PayPal FF for payment. Please let me know if you have any questions. Ed 520-965-7362

As I unboxed my Taipan Standard .22 today I was pleasantly surprised by the wood I received. I ordered the generic Beech stock trying to save a few bucks to put into lead since this is going to be a woods walker, barn blaster, squirrel squelcher and pigeon poking hunter. The stock displays some nice medullary rays as evidenced by nice quarter sawn lumber.

Looking to sell or trade my leshiy 2 350mm .22. It’s currently shooting hades at 910fps With a SD of 4.2. For a semi auto, that’s awesome!

I have many accessories for it, as of now it has a huma quad rail guard covering a jkwan blowback shroud (newer design with 1/2 20 mod adapter). I’ve used many moderators on it, and all seem to do well. OST of the leftover noise is from the action. It has the dogbone And collar still installed, and reg pressure is at 125bar to achieve the current speed with factory 1.2 jets.

I have factory 350 shroud with upgraded insert and striplin 1/2 20 endcap, jkwan magnetic scope mag holder, huma digital reg gauge, huma 1 piece fill probe, 2x .22 black magazines, factory box and accessories.

im looking to get $2200 shipped for everything or trades for evol (all models considered), or something else of equal value.

message for questions or pics.

thanks for looking.

Just did this at 96yds measured with rangefinder
.25 Impact Compact 33.5 NSA

Lightly used Donny FL Fat Boy 2.0 with extender and air stripper. I had this on my on my sub 12 ft lb USFT with extender and experienced a little clipping on the .177 insert (see pic). No issue on higher power rifles though. Has all three caliber inserts. Price is $220 $200 $190. Payment by USPS money order or bank certified check. I will accept a personal check but will hold shipping for two weeks. Send me a PM with "I'll take it" or questions. If you'd like me to call or text you, send me your number.

I’ve had many FX rifles in my short time in this hobby, and currently still own 3.
Out of all of them, I enjoy my dreamtac compact the most. The funny part is, I always thought it was an ugly little gun, and had no desire to own one. Then a friend of mine let me try his at the range one day, and after that, I HAD to have one!! It was smooth, light, fun to shoot, and above all, ACCURATE!!
I purchased a .22 of my own used here on the forums for the cost of a mid level pcp, and I’ve done absolutely nothing to it. I haven’t added accessories, I haven’t tuned it, I haven’t even cleaned the barrel. I got it, I loaded up a mag of cphp, and I zeroed in the scope for 35yds. I set it at min on the hammer, and 177/22 on the transfer port, and shot them at 700fps. It’s mouse fart quiet, and super accurate, not to mention DEADLY on squirrels and chippers.

I have to say, of all my rifles present and past, I haven’t had as much fun as I have with this rifle. For some stupid reason, I tried to trade it not too long ago for a atomic or ranger. I always have the grass is greener disease in the hobby, and I almost lost a good thing. I broke it out again today to shoot it, and realized why I love it so much. I cranked it to max, and had it shooting the same cphp at 880fps and without changing the scope zero, it’s zeroed in at 50yds at max. So I have a high power and low power rifle at arms length that I have recorded both zeroes, added profiles to strelok, and honest, I could sell everything else I own, and be content.

Anyway, moral of the story, try out guns before spending your har earned money. You might be surprised to find a gun that fits you perfectly, but you would never dreamed of buying without trying first.

Also thanks to my good friends on here that steer me in the right direction frequently when I become lost!

700mm. Carbon lined, 25 cal. Wiki gauges, K&L probe holder fx donny mod. 1 magazine $1800 shipped with tracking PayPal F/F

This morning's shooting experience centered around checking out my Weihrauch HW80 .22 cal, purchased and tuned during the 2020 COVID period, to help me keep my sanity intact. I refer to it as "the Beast" due to its mass, weight, and power output.

Removing it from the vault, I first checked all of the screw tensions, with the hinge bolt barely moving, maybe a .20 turn or so on each of the side stock screws, and resetting the the scope ring screws to 15 ft lbs.

This rifle has not been shot all that much, so the barrel wasn't very dirty, requiring only 4 patches front and back, and a pair of .22 felt cleaning pellets doubled up back-to-back to make the rifling appear bright and shiny.

The installation of a Vortek PG4-Steel HO kit occurred with the purchase of the rifle and was installed immediately upon receipt of the rifle. The trigger was fully disassembled with all of the touching metal surfaces hand polished with a stone and emery cloth. Everything was lightly lubricated and adjusted to my personal preferences. This rifle, especially for producing right at 17 fpe, is very smooth, with just an audible "thump," minimum spring recoil, and no "buzz" evident.

In the original set-up, after testing several different pellets through it, it seemed to show a definite preference for the Hades 15.89 gr pellet, and that is that I have continued to use ever since.

Wiping the rifle down to remove any finger prints or smears, I proceeded to the indoor 18 yard test range. While I have springers that produce groups half of the size indicated, they are all in the <15 fpe range. Given the power output of this rifle, I find the groups to be acceptable and within a "minute of squirrel." I wouldn't hesitate to pull it out of the vault for any need inside of 50 yards.

I just received an order of pellets from Pyramydair this week. Oh boy was I excited! Grabbed the box and headed to my gun room to open it up. As I started pulling tins out my disappointment began, tin after tin had damage which was severe enough to damage pellets. I got all the tins out and flipped the box over revealing a bottom corner torn open and signs the entire bottom was crushed. Looked like an accordion.

I took a couple of pictures and emailed Pyramydair. This was about 9pm Wednesday. I got an automatic reply they received my email and by 10am the next morning a customer advocate replied with a case number assigned. A couple more emails and I receive this from them:

“Thank you for the photos. Our customer care team will open an investigation and submit a claim with the courier on your behalf.

The claims process usually takes 7-10 business days, and upon conclusion, you will either receive your original order or a confirmation email for a replacement order. Please note, replacement orders require an adult signature.

There is no further action required from you at this time.

Have a great day!”



Thank you Pyramydair!

The carrier failed on this one but 99% of packages received from them are in good shape so I’m not going to crap on them for this one package.

I have a classic huntsman left handed in .22cal. Gun comes with 4 mags. Tuned by derrick wall before I acquired it and confirmed with him that it was indeed touch and tuned. Pictures can provide via Messaging. Im wanting $ 750 paypal friends and family and spilt shipping cost! Would like trades!! Gun only no scope or moderator!

I'm really early in my airgun journey right now and am a huge fan of german and UK springers. I'm very tempted by PCPs, but don't have the knowledge and gun safe space for them yet. I'm wondering how others have made the transition from springers to PCP or vice versa. What drove you to go one way or the other? Do end up keeping both types of guns and shooting both?
