EFT was the 1st day, but there was a shoot off yesterday for the top places....Top score was 34 out of 40. Caleb (Stache) won the shootoff against Justin Welch. Not sure who got 3rd or 4th place. Caleb also won the EFT top shooter award for the year.

Ah I'm beginning to understand all of that now. So, shroud, then inside of that is the barrel (liner) sleeve, then inside of that the actual liner. I'm having trouble finding liners that I know would fit the 380mm kit that's offered on ebay by c88machining - I think 500mm would be just too long for my purposes. I get that I wouldn't be able to reuse the Notos' stock barrel with a 380mm conversion? I'm curious about the slug barrel - is it more rifling inside than a typical pellet gun? If I could just find a place to browse actual liners (If I definitely need one) I could figure it out I'm sure. Thanks guys

Okay i have gotten on with the new nest for the Two, it is now flipped 180 degrees and have the scope facing down.
Still a very small case i have for it, so still had to cut some corners or at least one corner.
But this new foam A LOT better then the pick styrofoam which was already falling apart.

Still need to make a few cuts in it for stuff, but i have to source a larger cannister as the 4 X 18650 battery case i have used is too small.

Hi buddy, where did you get the rifle case foam from ?

Out here in the US it is generally pretty hard to get much available from fx in 177.

Not annoying at all. Just love the ones you are with . Lol.

I do but a well priced decent .25 that will produce 63-65 ft/lbs would be pretty awesome. Not easily come by in the new in box market for under a grand.

All Leupold scopes are spring gun rated and carry a lifetime warranty. All my scopes are either Leupold or Vortex.

Do not put a Vortex crossfire on a spring gun that is rated over 12 fpe. I own the Diana 48 that is the number 1 king of busting scopes and I have yet to break one. I use a Vortex Diamondback on my 48.

LOL my 48 ate a couple scopes too!

MDriskill · Oct 14, 2024

Welcome aboard, nice choices on the toys! Many HW fans here, me included. I'm also a peep sight addict, scopes are great but make a heavy rifle like the 35 even bulkier, or course.

BTW, this site has generous edit/delete options - often saves clumsy old me some embarrassment. You can go back to your original post and zap the extra pics easy enuff.

the shrouds are all gone and even if you got one they would be very old
i have tried to epoxy one and it did not work but maybe you could have better luck and i don't remember what epoxy i use
will it continue to crack, my guess yes it will until it completely fails
is there an option, not that i know of the barrel under the shroud is very ugly
the plastic on the model 6-6G-6M's is getting old and the rear sights will start to crack from age
so the problem you have is something i have thought about a lot over the years and i have never come up with a solution
i have seen in pictures someone made some aluminum ones but when and how many i have no idea
the part itself is complicated, could one be made with todays 3D printing maybe
all i have

I was afraid that was the case. Guess this one will get limited use.

Had a great time at EBR
Made a lot of mistakes, like setting a wind flag too high that it covered my row of sighters on my 75 yard target
Also double shot a target, and went off regulator because i didn't fill before the match.
i guess the nerves got to me and you just forget some things.

I tried to take some pictures, but got too busy with the set up.
A BIG THANK YOU to AOA for the event!!
Everything was run efficiently.

We did have something i haven't seen before...A BIG Dust Devil, about as wide as a car and taller than the buildings, swept through the range knocking down wind flags abd blowing the targets out of their stands! ..it was quite a sight!

I watched Justin Welch do a speed shoot for his 75 yard targets..he finished his 1st taget in 2:30...then took another minute to shoot his sighters.
He shot his 2nd target in 2 minutes...then shot his sighters...lol ..so less than 5 minutes for both rounds

Jeff Hernandez shooting was incredible to watch..very skilled at choosing his shots in the wind conditions
Mike Bricker was down -8 on his 1st two rows on the qualifiers, and then procedded to bang out all 10's for the rest of the card..Great shooting!
Thane was also fun to watch...his panda was super quiet as well as accurate..counld't hear the shots

The people there were super nice and engaging.
Meet a lot of new friends from South Africa, Lithuania and Chile...it's the people that make the event worth going and repeating.

I learned a lot from the experience..of what to do...and not to do ..i hope when i go again, i can improve on the scores and see the friends i made this weekend

Mike

i would like to read more reports like this . The experience gained . nice read .

Hello fellas I picked it up over the weekend , let me say thanks for your guys responses. Man this thing is Heavy! I guess that's why they are so precise? It looks well made . He said it did have scope mounts on it but he kept them for his newer RWS . I played around with it and really couldn't dial in many groupings at 25 yards using the flip up sights. What are people putting on here that will last? I can't afford to put a Burris or a sightron just yet but with this sled system does it still eat scopes? I thought about putting my Leupold VX on it for the time being but don't want to risk it .
This thing weighs almost double to my weatherby 223 . I guess it takes some getting used to.
Thanks for y'all's input .

Does any scope manufacturer have an illuminated retical that is green in color? Have difficulty seeing red especially in daylight.

coastal drifter · Oct 14, 2024

Anyone looking for a red dot for their rifle I would recommend this one, it was easy to dial in and amazingly accurate, I been popping expired tins of pellets from 60 yards even when they spin sideways. minute of squirrel all day long

igolfat8 · Oct 14, 2024

Great report Mike. Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

igolfat8 · Oct 14, 2024

That's just not right. You left coast guys get all the great weather and catered food fit for kings while the rest of us in the Midwest and right coast are getting hunkered down for cold wind, rain and all to soon that white fluffy stuff falling from the sky.

Corvid_hunter · Oct 14, 2024

Mods are not allowed where I live. On the Brocock website it can be purchased without the black mod part, so I may take the plunge and get one.

It shoots Zan 13 and 16 grain superb. JSB Knockouts also Ok but not as good as the Zan's.
But you will probably need some mods to get the 16 gr. Zan's to fly fast enough.

Thanks.

So, I’m a big believer in the Easy Tune system from “Shooting with Phil”. Keep the Maverick! You get almost the same thing as the Impact 4, except for the valve adjustment screw, bigger plenum and WAY easier to tune!
Oh, and the cost is $130!

Thanks. My Maverick has been easy to tune. My best accuracy so far is in 30 caliber with the 44.8 FX pellets at 890 fps.

I might end up buying a second Maverick instead of a M4. Lots of reasons to stick with what I have. The only things that bugs me a bit sometimes about the Maverick/Wildcat is the loud hammer noise at high power tunes. I don’t know if the Impact has the same noise with its different internal setup.

SteveG · Oct 14, 2024

Congrats Jeff! I couldn't agree more Mike. Outstanding performance.

UTG makes springer rated scopes (bug buster) and some come with rings, also (Hawke) with life time warranty

congratulations Jeffrey, Excellent performance!!!!

Peashooter · Oct 14, 2024

Had a parcel in customs limbo for about a week now, no need to pay as it is from another EU country, but it seem like someone think 4.5 mm pellets are illegal in Denmark.
If only they know how many 10.000 i have imported in the past years,and still have very many kilos here in the apartment.

Anyway UPS Denmark wanted me to bring the sender Krale into play too, and so i complied as i am a nice guy.

Talking to a guy named Jeroen there, and he is very helpful though of course NOTHING Krale can do in regard to my problem.
Anyway as i am going to make the same order again later today, he is offering to send it with another carrier just to see if that will help.
I dont think so though, but nice of him to offer a solution / other angle
