    Took A Coyote That Was Threatening My Dog

    Thanks for everyone writing in about the ups and downs of hunting animals. For me anything larger than a Racoon gives me a bit of remorse. Ezra mine is the Pard TD32-70. I absolutely love the optic. Everything is designed for quick engagements. Compared to my ATN Xsight 5 lrf that I foolishly...

    Took A Coyote That Was Threatening My Dog

    I empathize with you very much. When your pups are your family and your wife is scared to go outside at night you gotta do what you gotta do I completely understand. Nice set of rifles you got there! 90 grain in 30 cal? NICE. That slug must have pretty good BC? 750 MOA at 100yards? I have also...

    Took A Coyote That Was Threatening My Dog

    Ahh close, using my pard td32x70. I absolutely love that scope. If I had to go to war I’d be taking that optic no question. I’ve heard allot of great things about the Thermnights like everyone else though. I use Picture in Picture for day mode/thermal. To answer another question from Ezra...

    Took A Coyote That Was Threatening My Dog

    Boy this one was full of emotion. This is why I got into air guns. So I could quietly dispatch threats to my family. I took the pup out, and I can see a brown figure absolutely zooming toward us through the woods behind the brush. Coyotes are a thing here, fairly large ones. So I knew the score...

    Squirrel hunting preparation advice

    I would highly recommend a Balistic range finder that also takes angle into account. This takes the guess work out of it in the field. Zero to whatever your heart desires. I have a more closed off shooting area so I zero at 25yards. However a good ballistic range finder that tells you what to...

    FX FX Maverick Compact .30 Cal - First shots review

    I’m guessing you mean dual regulators not dual plenum adjustments correct? I just think of my first stage reg (on an M3) as a step down reg. These do really work imo and give you better consistency from a fresh fill all the way to going off the reg compared to one single reg. So setting the...

    N/A SE Wisconsin PCP

    My apologies I live in Oak Creek. So Bristol is not too far at all! BAGA huh? They are air rifle specific? Just curious. I am also NOT in farm country hehe. All I know is I shouldn’t be showing up places un announced at a farm or I might be the one getting hunted ;).

    N/A SE Wisconsin PCP

    I am resurrecting this post from the grave as it's specifically talking about where I live. Do any of you SE Wisconsin folks know of any permissions that need hunting? I have mostly shot out of my back yard which has been great. Lots of game. However I really do want to stretch the legs of my...

    Pest Thwarted

    Yes, I agree this happens to me every so often to me where I will have to take a few possums. You sure did unload though, what’d you use a hatson blitz w/extended mag? ;)

    How cold is to cold?

    Yeah, I have to be honest. Here in Wisconsin I find myself actually feeling bad for the tree rats when it’s below zero. They are already suffering enough ;). Just feels cruel to shoot them besides.

    Air Rifle Coyote

    We have a bit of a different relationship with coyotes at my house :). It consists of a phone call from my wife saying come quick I can hear coyotes out there shoot them before they get Winnie! (Our dog). I was only too happy to oblige. Tonight though I saw them through the thermal but way too...

    FX Drs .25 tuning

    I don’t know if this helps you, but when I bought my drs .25 cal the dealership (the pellet shop) told me to assume around a 150 bar reg pressure. That feels about right. I have an M3 and a drs .25 cal just like you sounds like. Def pellets for shot count. I don’t get through a whole mag firing...

    FX Bhaur's analysis of POI shift in FX guns

    Hmm, I have an M3 Impact in .357 and while I would agree it’s not a “truck gun” I also don’t think with regular usage you’re going to see massive poi shift. I also think my saber tactical rail plays a roll in keeping that fairly tight for me though, as well as really cranking on the suppressor...

    Other Point of impact changes everyday - cold weather?

    Unfortunately if you live anywhere near the Midwest it is just going to be a fact of airgun ownership that they don’t do the greatest in cold weather. I would recommend getting a gun with two regulators, which I do believe the pantera has. This may or may not make a difference. Best thing you...

    Fx impact m4 .177 long range!

    Nice shooting, you really piled them high! Your M4 there sure isn’t standard either. Pretty interesting air tank skin/cover… like the carbon fiber you used on the shroud too. It’s very unique that’s for sure!
