    Bell Target anyone?

    If you recess the target face behind a plate with a target size hole the box will be contained the shards of lead. Take a look at azrover's photos. We shot bell target in the winter until the pandemic, loss of members, and the icy road to the club house put an end to it. Bell target is fun...

    Have you ever shot someone's target by mistake?

    I have done this. Shooting my first small bore silhouette at the Black Canyon range in Phynix. Driving down form Idaho I was worried that I might not hit the chickens, and I went over that first shot in my mind 100 times. On my first bank of chickens the cross hairs settled of the first bird...

    Daystate Daystate magazine

    One magazine per rifle seems to have been a Daystate policy for some time. I have a .25 Air Ranger, and two extra magazines cost $260. Those older .25 magazines are quite frustrating to use. The newer magazines, the ones with the door, look much better, but I would be tempted to look into CARM...

    Eaglevision barrel tuner

    Hi SAZ Instructions? Nope, "Contact us" Nope. For such a well-made product, customer relations is batting zero. Air Ability Has become one of my favorite channels. Well thought out and good delivery. I don't think I should take it upon myself to describe the proper installation sequence...

    Eagle Vision Harmonic Barrel Tuner, Muzzle Break, Air Stripper-has anyone tried this?

    I won one at the EBR 13 raffle. It is the unit without the muzzle brake. I put it on a .25 Daystate Air Ranger, and I have shot one series that shows a tighter group with very little adjustment. I like it. Ron

    Largo Salada Field Target Club

    Last Saturday, David Read and I shot a field target match hosted by the Largo Salado (Dry Lake) Field Target Club. The club’s spark plug is Chris Ruano, and he did a wonderful job setting up and running the match. Dave and I drove down from Pocatello, Idaho the morning of the match and it was...

    Why .22 and why .30

    The rifle I shoot the best with is a .30 FX Boss. I have had it for about ten years and for me it is worth the extra air and pellet cost. I shoot both benchrest and EFT with this rifle. I find that is easier for me to see the shot holes at 75 and 100 yards. Also, it is easier to track the...

    EFT, who wants it?

    Thanks, Dan. "Sagebrush" is descriptive of the landscape. We also like themed/historical lanes. We put 4 steel and 20 foamboard buffalos out of a grassy hill side for our buffalo hunt lane. the last buffalo hunt in Idaho took place not too far from our range.

    Eaglevision barrel tuner

    Thanks. The Viking Airgunner, above, and Air Ability are the only two I could find. Both are good on how to use the tuner, but what is lacking. Up North Airgunner has a good video on how to attach the Eaglevision muzzle brake that helped. I think that a product of this subtilty needs an...

    Eaglevision barrel tuner

    I won a Eaglevision harmonic barrel tuner at the EBR banquet. Thanks to Eaglevision. The unit is very well finished, and I think it is going to do some good on my .25 Air Ranger. No instructions were included in the kit and the “contact us” option on Eaglevision’s web site does not work. So, I...

    FX The Boss

    I have shot my Boss at Several EBRs and EFT Grand Prixs in Utah. The only thing that holds it back is me!

    AGT Vixen shooters

    @ Keesbo, What is that "mag" in front of the trigger guard? Looks interesting.

    AGT Vixen shooters

    I have the long version in .22. I shoot it in the EBR Speed shoot because of how close the bold handle is to the trigger, and the 12 round magazines. I shoot the speed shoot and the Steel Chainage with it and the only problem I have had is when I try to push my times, I will short stroke the...

    EFT, who wants it?

    What’s in a name? A hit in a match by any other name would be as sweet There are several field target matches with a suffix before the FT, but they have a few things in common. Distance to the targets up to or beyond 100 yards. Powerful rifles up to 80 or 100 foot pounds. Fall when hit targets...
