4D188B9E-675F-4388-951F-A8E02A6BC8C2.jpeg. 10am short hunt. 3 shots. One at 40& 2 at 25. And yes I have much nicer looking rifles to choose from but the 90 is what I consider my grab and go gun lol. That rifle has character kinda like me 😂. But it will put meat on the table anytime I take her out.

It's not the dog in the fight but the fight in the dog. Nice job!

I've got one in .22. A buddy got it and kept it about 3 months. He didn't care for it and sold it to me for a song. It's basically mint and I've yet to put glass on it. I need to get the extra gear to adjust the pressure. I'm still in decent shape at 49 but it is the hardest rifle to cock that I own. It's also built like a tank. I don't own a .20 in anything but would like to.

Definitely need to let a little air out and just a very small bit at a time. Pump and gauge are a must for setting it up for accuracy and ease of cocking

I picked up a 25 because AOA had no 20s in the HW 90. I also need the fittings and a bike shock absorber pump. B.

Make sure that pump = or exceeds the bar rating on the ram

So 26 bar you'd want a 400psi pump I guess ,right? Some shock pumps are up to 300. So check specs ..

My RX1 in .20 cal would be the best hunting pellet gun I have. Very accurate and has taken many a pigeon. Bought back in the early 90’s and still works as good as the day I bought it. An absolute tank.

Interesting that the Beeman guns I have from this era are still (IMO) some of best break barrels available.

RX1, R1, R10, R8

Will probably add a R7 if I can find a vintage one with the Goudyesque stock style.

I agree with you about some of the best! I don’t own a r10 yet. Maybe someone will offer one for sale on this site. Ebay prices are pretty much to high.
