Sheridan  Estate auction find Sheridan blue streak

Just my opinion - every Sheridan Model C, no matter its age, should have 1.
I don't know that it really makes much difference, but through the years when I handed my Sheridan to someone to shoot, I'd ask them to pump it hand into hand. The end of the pump, into the hand guard, closing your hands together for the least stain into that brass rifle. 👍

FX  FX Impact magazine modification

Great idea, thanks for sharing.

Another magazine solution I REALLY like the Manuloader offered by AGN member Shortcut.
I'm sure he could make one for the Impact. Essentially it works as a magazine that you index by rotating to the next pellet manually. The benefit is that the pellet has no spring tension on it. It is like a single-shot tray but much faster. The pellet is also fully enclosed which aids in direct lineup to the breech.

Benjamin  Strange Marauder Accuracy Issue

My vote goes to the hammer. Sounds like something is dragging the hammer when it gets into a certain position or something with the trigger. Because the odd shot is almost always about 5" low and the rest of the shots are so consistent, that odd shot must be coming out slow. I have the same airgun...Gen 2 Synrod, LW barrel, all still stock. I haven't seen anything like your problem, I just get a good tune with great groups and then they seem to start opening up and I can't figure out why. But I searched the forums and wound up polishing the hammer and tube it slides in with 2000 grit abrasive sheet to reduce friction. Then I coated the tube with a teflon spray that dries out and leaves no residue that can cause gumming up or collecting dust. Also polished the trigger parts. My other problem with opening group sizes was solved just last week. I broke the gun down (not any pressure parts) and decided to try more trigger pull. I think it was too light so I increased it somewhat, even gave it a little bit of creep and my groups size is right back where it was, 1/4 to 3/8" at 25 yds. Let us know what you find out.

Airforce  TalonP Lane Regulated vs Non Regulated

I have no experience with Air force guns, but have you considered lowering your reg set point to 2000 psi or even 1800 psi? You'd have more regulated shots but might sacrifice some power. You might also try a lighter hammer strike? Your shot graph looks like the classic cliff from too much hammer strike.
I only mention this because none of the previous posts mention it.
John, trying to reach you about the possibility of shooting on your range. Im in DT Santa Barbara and all my National Forest sites have been closed by the state. God Knows why. Anyway, no place to shoot anymore. I'm going crazy. If you could contact me at [email protected], I'd be so grateful. Cheers!

22 or 177 for hunting at 15 yards with sub 12 FT/LB air rifle?

The british pest controllers using their - only- 6 ft lbs air pistols very effective on small pests inside 15 yards. A lot of them use the crosman 2240, which seems to be a very effective rat killer for barns and gardens. Because of the low energy, very low danger of pass through and a very dead critter if you hit it in the vitals (head, neck, lungs, heart).

Brocock/BRK  sniper XR magnum

I was just looking at the BRK website and it lists the .25cal Sniper Magnum at a max of 55fpe. 30gr at 904fps is 54.45fpe on the calculator I checked. Maybe he can reach out to the guy from England that does the tear down and mod videos for air rifles and he can help him out in some way. Or look at something like the Ghost if he wants more potential.
Those numbers are just crazy to me being in stock form my FX is capable of 107fpe in the same caliber. I’m running 38.9gr at 1085fps now after upgrades to my FX.
Power is one thing, if it’s not accurate, but as I worked my way up it just continued to shoot really well.

Mollysleadshed. Precision airgun slugs

Hi there my fellow air gunners. Update for you guys. Yes Pro Slugs did close up Jon is no longer in business. But don't worry mollysleadshed.com bought all his hand cast and I just bought the casting machine and the swaging machine so give me a few weeks and I will have some swaged slugs on my website. Mean while if you want to you can email me a [email protected] if you would like to make you an order thank you for your patience and hopefully we can all make this happen together... Chad

fx drs issues

Not enough shots per fill. Too light...needs to be at least 10 pounds. Can't withstand being ran over by a Semi-Truck. Thats all I've heard. lol
I don't have one, but I bet it is WAY too nicely balanced since the barrel is nestled down into the stock instead of perched on top of an air tank.

Wolf Airguns High Efficiency Moderator test 2, muzzle dB

Went to their site, just about everything is out of stock. Looked like only the Raven 30 was in stock.

-- Matt
Saw that the K-baffles high efficiency version has availability. Unluckily thisd one on the video is out of stock. I hope they can get it back to stock soon.

Backyard Pesting Dilemma…

I feed the birds 50lbs of chicken scratch every month or so, 20 bucks, A few years ago I wiped out all the sparrows , I had noting to shoot but paper targets and a few cow birds,,, I kept the feed out and gave all the good birds a pass, After a year or so the sparrows started coming back, In one of my big brain farts I just started shooting the male sparrows , The more I shot the males the more came, LOTS of hens ,, I have shot a few males through the winter not a lot one or two a day,,, March is almost here so I am going to start the experiment all over again... Sure need to find a close feed lot ...

Calling for a Pity Party...

Did I mention that my furnace has been out for 5 days now.
I’m on crutches and not very maneuverable cause also had shoulder surgery
So wife says no heat and I go on my butt down 2 sets of stairs. Hobble over
to furnace and open up . See problem right away . Igniter shot. Ok to
Amzon and order. 2days to arrive. I go back down to cellar to replace and notice
it’s longer by maybe 1/8 inch. Anyway standing on one leg struggle to get the
spring steel clamp on . Now I have to splice in cause the connector burned up
years ago. I didn’t get down and look if it was placed right. Closed up and told
her to turn it on. After the pre venting relay clicks and poooff igniter gone.
Was grounded on frame. Back on amzon for igniter. Comes Saturday, down to
carefully install . Get in, turn on, relay No light. Meter out , no V.
Ah oooo. musta burned controller up. Tested tried reset from lockout , nope bad.
Amzon again , order , not here till Wednesday…… continued

Airgun Technologies  Uragan 2 Things I've noticed

Hello all. One more time- thank you for opening this thread and discussion.
Encouraged by your experiences, I felt ready to go down this rabbit hole and start playing with the HS tension. Right from the start, the results are beyond any reasonable expectations.
So, here we are:

I have U2 .25 700mm, using 37gr (2.4g) Zan slugs @160bar approximately (1/4 turn CCW on regulator from factory settings).

Velocities before HS tuning were 938-946fps with approximately 40b airdrop for 1 magazine/ 10shots. That’s 4b per shot.

Encouraged by your posts, I turned my HS screw 2 1/4 turn CCW, because of that I had to dremel the stock interior for approx. 1.5mm. I fired 10 shots, then waited for 24hours, then fired another 20shots.
To my shock, on first magazine speed started at 475fps, but next day, on second and third magazine, it went all the way to 715fps. But ofc I wasn’t satisfied with that and I started to turn HS screw CW. At the end, for 3/4th of a turn. So, now my HS screw is 1 1/2 CCW opened from the factory settings.
I shot 1 magazine, then waited for 24 hours to allow the spring to adjust and then again, today, I shot 1 magazine. So…

On my last magazine, 10shots, speeds were from 920.6-926.5fps, so my ES was less than 6fps (before this tuning, usual was 8-10fps, if I remember correctly max ES was 12fps AND… now the airdrop per magazine (10shots) is approximately 15bar 😳😳😳 DAFAQ?!?

So… next thing I’ll do is to play around this setup.
My goal is to leave the regulator @160b, to find minimal tension for HS while achieving speeds from 900-1000+fps, depending on slug grains, while using minimal air pressure possible what would also be quieter than it used to be.

As for precision- I was focused on velocity/air pressure but I haven’t noticed any noticeable precision drop while doing so.

Guys, one more time big RESPECT 🫡, this was unbelievably well spotted detail in these overall fantastic airguns.

Thank you again,

S.

FX  The FX DRS, what do you guys think?

I like my DRS Classic Composite 600 mm .22.

It is more accurate with pellets at ranges between 50 yards and 160 meters, than my (2) Streamlines and AA S510 Extra. That's with it driving 14.3 gr pellets at 1030 fps, about 100 fps faster than the other three.

Other than louder muzzle bark, it comes out ahead of the other three. I may buy a second identical DRS.
