Sons first hunt

Today was the fist time he was able to carry a rifle. As we entered the woods we heard a deer snorting and a squirrel barking. I’m pretty sure how it at each other by how it was playing out. We watched her prance off thinking she gone. Since several squirrel were barking all around us we found a fallen log to settle behind. About 15-20 mins later normal woods activity resumed. While chilling the doe came back about 60 yd out then sorta waltzed out of view again. Just to return about 20yds to our left proceeded to forage for what seemed like for ever. As she was walking away about 30 yds she stopped and stared right into our souls. Only to stomp her foot for about 2 mins. She then walked out way all paranoid paused and waltzed over the hill.
We saw 3 squirrels 60ish yards a way so we relocated near them. As we got to our next spot I could hear one cutting some nut open. Spotted the porker looking at us eating a nut. Waited for my son to see him. Gave him the go and his first squirrel. As we were gathering him up we spot in a tree two young raccoons sleeping. One looked down at us like keep it down and went back to sleep. We ended up getting 3 total. I one and him 2.
If you like playing find the sniper there is a doe in several of the pictures.

Airgun Sporting Association

Centercut
Yes, they’ve been around for a while post EBR.
For EBR the target sizes are slightly smaller.
  • Target Size Measures:
    • X ring ……… 0.200
    • 10 ring……… 0.475
    • 9 ring………. 1.250
    • 8 ring………. 2.000
    • 7 ring……… 2.800
    • 6 ring……… 3.580
    • 5 ring……… 4.36
    • 4 ring……….5.125
A few things I’ve never understood?

1. Why did they go with a different target size (a small difference, but still a difference) when EBR targets had been used successfully for years prior to ASA?

2. They had a chance to make this right with double shooting a target vice the -10 penalty. The rest of the BR World (USARB, N50, etc.) take the lowest of the two shots minus 1 point.
But they didn’t and stuck with the -10 used at EBR.

Coming full circle with my choices

Well sir, you are describing the symbol for infinity.

Now at over a thousand and counting, feels like I'm well on my way to that number. But could you please QUANTIFY it better for me, so I could have a clearer picture of my goal? :unsure:

As I understand it, the Milky Way is but one of more galaxies than there are little dots in this picture of it; and many of the little dots in pictures of the universe are actually galaxies bigger than our own (Milky Way).

So by my cipherin'... :unsure: ... I reckon infinity must be more than a hunert!🤓

Bushnell 6-18X40 - High Contrast - Made in Philippines

K
I have 2 of the Bushnell 6-18X40 high contrast scopes - made in Philippines. These were quite popular several years ago when I was heavily involved in air-gunning. I was very active on yellow forums in those days but learned a short while ago that that forum is no longer active. I am looking to get back into the hobby but also looking to sell off many accessories that I do not need. Will appreciate any inputs.

Can you actually do this? I would figure that the water intrusion can harm the gun.

I've done it. Dissassembled, dried, and reassembled when done. Water shouldn't intrude anything, other than end up on all the mechanical parts. As long as there is pressure in the tank, it won't intrude that either.

I wouldn't dunk it and leave it without cleaning everything up. Water won't harm most parts like those that are made of aluminum or stainless, but could cause rust on any basic steel parts. Hence why I say clean everything up afterwards. This is simply what I do when I am at whits end trying to find a leak.

PCP Airgun & Compressor ( modifications & repair)

Bigbuckairgunner39
Hey Guys,

I wanted to drop this information along with a few photos to show a few projects I’ve recently worked on.

Im based in the Nashville/Bowling Green area and I enjoy fixing/modifying pcp airguns and repairing and rebuilding pcp compressors.
I can service & or repair just about any quality compressor or airguns.
I also really enjoy building power house setups.

I have the tools to work on such things and also can Zero and mount scopes.
In the photos below you will find a couple examples of the customizations described above. I installed a time meter on my gxcs4 from day one to take the upmost care for it. And being the ergonomics of the Zeus were a disaster to begin with I turned my Zeus into a rifle worthy of the title. Not just a project half thought out…

I love working on guns and compressors just lmk what ya got and let’s get some projects rolling guys….

Im also in talks to have custom laser engraving be an available service as well….

Look forward to hearing from ya! Happy Shootin Guys!
You can reach me on here or @

Brocock/BRK  BRK Ghost & Barrel/Caliber Changes

bowwild
I may have just solved my issue? I removed the big ole bulky OEM moderator from the Taipan. Yep, it's louder, but so much nicer to handle at the shorter length. I have been hunting with rimfires for more than 60 years so I'm not really concerned about noise and I live in a rural area with unlimited range to shoot. So, I'm going to try to find a threaded end cap for the Taipan (weird threads my RYU wouldn't fit the Taipan) and shoot hunt with it unmoderated. After this squirrel season ends in February I'll have hunted with both the .22 BRK and the .25 TV. I'll know what I want to do for next year then.

I do see only 23" barrels for the BRK .25 and I'm not loving that.

Anyone know where to get a barrel thread protector for the Taipan Vet 2 HP?

Yaw Induced BC changes.

Nicely presented analysis.

Can actual yaw be measured using high speed cameras? (Or have I watched too many episodes of Mythbusters?). I imagine a Labradar combined with high speed video could get both yaw and ballistic data out to at least 50y.

I suspect it would take exceptionally detailed and crisp photos to detect yaw in the required fractions of a degree.

There is a system called flight follower which can take film of bullets in flight showing yaw behaviour which should be able to do it for pellets, if you have the odd £25000 to hire it.
