Okay got a RPLY from Tuxing in regard to my broken compressor, they lige a video, why i dunno CUZ you can not see what is broke, i also just assume it is the HP #4 stage / cylinder or at least its valving.
It cant be the cylinder seal CUZ the it would vent thru crank case, but pressure is just 240 BAR and do not get higher.
and it do not vent to the air, that would be fizzing and immediately pressure drop when the compressor is turned off, and i do not see that happen.
So ATM i am gravitating towards valve issues, but then again i have not been able to find any schematics on the compressor, but looking at ( video of ) the coltri its a copy off there are valves for each stage.

But they will send me parts to fix it, just need to figure out what ones to send...... which i assume are hard to do without taking the damn thing apart.

SO !
I have ordered a new compressor.
CUZ no telling when the Tuxing one will be ready, and any day now it is prime season and i will be needing a lot of air and a lot of lead.

3 Good Shots at 200 Yards...There is one .510 N.O.E mold Hard Cast Wheel Weight lead in locast tree at 200 yards.. Could probably resize and shoot again...lol

Shooting 200 Yards on the New Range..I tried a double ball head tripod setup...I also shot off regular rest and bag...AHH CARRIER TUBE Screws stripped out again..I have to buy another one

It has been an honor to serve. Last Friday I hung up the belt. On to the next chapter.

Tuesday & Wednesday, big ass High pressure on top of little old Denmark.
lots of sun and minimal amounts of wind.
Barrel cleaned and extra boxes of slugs packed CUZ the range on my friends property will be getting a severe dose of lead.

Also i have gotten tired of pulling my barrel every time i clean it, so have whipped up a DIY pull thru kit that work with the same patches i use on the cleaning rod.
So always swift cleaning at hand CUZ this kit follow my rifle, and i will soon make one for my other rifles to follow them.

Planting Potaoes and Ryubarb today...A slight break in my health..Getting more tools to make it easier..Plum tree in full blossum..Spring is well on its way here in PA..

Been to the range ( of course ) having some R&R behind the rifle, making a new style target we been turned onto, we call it a needle target, you basically have to shoot a 4.5 mm shot thru a 6 mm hole to get a visual reward in form of a chalk stick behind the hole to act as a HIT indicator.
Seem to work fine but really at 50 M not that much fun, come Tuesday it will be moved to 75 M to rise the stakes.

Also put up a few distance markers at various stations, 55 M - 75 M - 100 M 118 M and finally way in the back 129 M
And of course the 93 M / 100 Y

All i have to share however is a screenshot of a string from the Two.



Okay i completely forgot, let me edit and upload a little video i also made,,,,,,, BRB

20 minutes later.


We had a visitor while shooting, clearly this is a old school Viking bird, not afraid of nothing.
Actually 15 minutes or so later when it had walked up past out 75 M and 90 M stations, i hit steel there within a few feet of it, and it did not at all take notice to this, okay not loud steel but i am sure this bird is not deaf.

Here my friend is shooting 75 M with the bird 10 M from the shot shed.


Finally. You know it is.

Best Birthday Present ever..I'm so happy to finally have my daughter in my life..

When my Uncle Tommy passed one of the things his wife gave me was his favorite neck knife. California has a dumba$$ law against neck knives so I made this leather sheath. I wish I knew more about the knife but it’s about as vague as smart criminal in a interrogation room. Only marking is an etched hawk/eagle.

First PCP- Daystate Huntsman .177 in
1998.
Got my first non-toy Sheridan 5mm in 1968
Got my first ‘adult’ airgun Feinwerkbau break barrel in 1979.
It’s been quite a ride and number of PCP’s since then! Life long hobby.
PS I don’t count Daisy BB, Crosman 760…

197yards Tethered 3625 psi..

200 Yard Range First time use....510 Texan and Free wheel weight lead NOE cast powder coat 450 grain 820 fps..197 yards. No sorting just sized and lubed..

Made my first homemade tool. Also, was my first time welding something outside of welding class. I needed an extra deep socket to drop the tank on my truck so I cut the socket and welded it to another one. Worked like a charm.

My Big .510 Texan Got a paint job on My custom Free Barnett Crossbow Stock.. Got the carrier tube changed out .. Also had a wire separate on my Donny Fl Emperor causing accuracy problem s..I removed felt and screen and accuracy back.. Also cleaned barrel first time since hand lead lapping...

Welp... My new PC grenaded, the CPU started dying 3 weeks after I hooked it up.

Amazon sent me a new one and it seems to be working well.

I'm healthy, spring is here, we are getting our country back and the Starlings are back. I just got back from the dentist, I finally got my bridge and I'm heading out to the shop to work on some airguns.

Life is good
God is good

If you’re into old school country like Marty Robbins then you’ll like this new song by these young fellas:

varmint knocker 30 cal. slugs are back in stock

Weather is great, gave many of my air guns a good workout yesterday.
Will probably do the rest today.
So far, all of them holding air well, a few minor tweaks on the scopes.
Lots of holes in paper.

Ooooooo Yeah !

Its lead slinging time.

9 racks of ribs rubbed and refrigerated.
9lbs of chicken drumsticks to be brined and rubbed this morning.
then fire up the smoker, chunk mesquite charcoal and cherry wood chunks.
5-6 hours later the ribs will be done.

Refrigerator died, again, so all the meat defrosted while on ice in the cooler.
I dont refreeze meat so smoking it was the plan.
my neighbrs and the crew at the office will all be happy.
baked beans and coleslaw too, of course.

So it seem like there is a chance that the shot shed in the future will see more than 2 shooters.
So to accommodate this potential risk, we threw in a #3 rifle lane yesterday, and modified the 2 existing benches a little ( shooter cut-out enlarged a little )
it could also be the #1 pistol lane, will have to be turned into a full blow bench and then my friend can shoot his damn pistol from that

If shooting wasent such a small sport in this country, we would probably have to get a " NO vacancy " sign to put up.

2 "new " shooters will turn up tomorrow, though the wind far from playing ball, my friend will have to play the range manager CUZ i am at home for a while as i have family matters to attend to.

Believe it or not, this is what progress looks like! FEMA actually showed up a couple of weeks ago and finished clearing the road as a bonus. I'm thinking about some quality bonfire time this summer.

Greatest rock song ever, Rolling Stones Paint it Black.
If you think otherwise you are wrong.
And I'm not that big a fan of the Stones.

my pc crashed Sunday just on new PC trying to get all my stuff back .
