Would love to see pictures of your solution! ThanksHas anyone tried doing this and succeeded with the V3? I know this posts are likely talking about the Vulcan or Vulcan 2, but I'd imagine it's not much different. I've never heard of silastic but this is intriguing.

You need to try Ben’s LDC ones. Low density core HP HRBTI went out today to re-sight in my Epic One .25 with the 700mm unchocked CZ barrel. I have been trying varios slugs as this will be a slug shooter and today I shot the Griffin .25 60g boat tail HP slugs. My zero is at 30 yards and I have 4 1/2" horse stall mats stacked back to back with a piece of 2" mahogany behind them as the final stop. My regulator is set at 125-130 bar for now. My fps average was 768 for 10 shots with an SD of 3.1. I was able to retireve a couple of the slugs after shooting them I was surprised that they went through 3 of the 4 mats! Most of the pellets I shoot make it through 2 but not 3 with varing calibers and pressures. What surprised me is the muschrooming of the 2 that I found. The pictures are below. The grouping was very close to hole in hole with a couyple that went outside but not by more than about .39 inches. I have an opportunity to go coyote and hog hunting at a friends ranch. We went out the other night and saw 3 bob cats, one coyote, 25 deer, 2 skunks, 3 rabbits and one opossum. The bob cats and the coyote did not get within range that we wanted to shoot so we will go out next week and try again. I will certainly be using these slugs on the larger game!

I used Sportsmatch once and they cut into the rail of a nice R1. They didn’t move but I would rather the R1 stay mint. Live and learn, I sold those with the gun since they had made themselves part of the gun. I only use BKL now, they leave no evidence on these classics. I would gladly use something with a stop on a beater. I am between beaters but there is one on the way in the mail. That will be a different thread.That's very interesting. And I like BKL
The 14mm BSA dovetails are on the Maxi grip rails. The BKL and Sportsmatch rings place the scope too high. Best solution I found is to use Leupold Rifleman rings. Perfect fit with the stocks BSA come with

I like this ! one shot per dot then repeat . nice groups .These are my typical groups with my Impact M3 .22 600mm 18gr pellets.
No cherry picking straight from the tin 60 yards light head wind 3-6mph
one shot per dot x 4, started at the bottom and repeat round robin. Best group of the day was the top right blue dot.

Yep, dovetails work fine for me too.Never had a problem with my dovetail rings from BKL slipping on any airgun. Ive used them on my springers and on my .457 texan. No slippage. If you choose cheap scope rings, then they may slip.
Got it out, thanks againI've had a couple of them like that. They're kind of confusing. There's a wire that runs through the center of the pivot pin and the covers are pressed onto it. A little gentle prying while rocking them with a set of wirecutters will get them off and then you'll see the exposed roll-pin. It can then be pushed out.
I've never bothered to put the covers back on as they're cosmetic and I'm into just shooting the dang things.
Cheers,

Received rifle today, nice packaging too.About a week.
I just had to go double check again online lol I remember seeing something at around 7 lbs, but with looking at all different ones right now I thought I may have been mistaken. Did it the other day, thought I saw a brand new Daystate Huntsman Revere for $900 and went back wanting to buy it and I was definitely wrongI think you are correct...saw 9 lbs on one site but I think they were incorrect.
