What did you do airgun related today.

Spent a lot of time this weekend moving scopes around on different airguns - quest for the "right scope" pairing with each and everyone of my airguns. Learning that i like lower scope height whenever possible - except - bullpups seem to be more comfortable to me with a higher scope height.

I just cleaned my barrel so i am ready for the next 2 days at the range.
Also bought what i need to secure the 4 lane shudders on the new shot shed, so wind can not get to them, a thief will have no problems,,,,,, well in that regard.
My M8 that host the shot shed,,,,,, well he do not like when people take liberties on his expence, so him i would worry about if i was a thief, maybe also the 2 rottweilers.

PPL already tried to steal building materials for the shot shed earlier in the year, that was not a success

Just remembered i forgot to buy materials to modify my rifle forend carrier, i have gotten a idea to increase shooter comfort.
And when old, comfort are very important.

Packaged up the Cricket 9mm to ship for a trade.

Received a Beeman 2027 pistol and a Beeman Commander in todays mail! Charles

I went to work and printed 300 targets "testing" the printer. Take that, job!

Yeah, I have a B&W laser printer too. But this is full color and the paper! Superb!

Last night I rem9ved the BSA sweet 17 9ff my Notos and put the vortex diamondback tactical from my impact m3 on the notots and put an arken 4-16x50 on the m3 that arrived in the mail. Also shot some iguanas with both pcps and swapped the m3 from .22 caliber to .177 caliber.

I'm trying to turn my Notos into a low power lizard killer. I cut two sections of the HS off and turned the reg down to about 1000 psi. Its still early in this process. I will see how it groups tonight.
I didn't have it set up the best for chrony, I was just hand holding it in pistol form today. Just some fast and quick to see approximately where I am. I am going to bump up the reg a little. I'd like to be at 10 FPE.

Now this is a useful post to the average shooter ,thankyou
Stan in KY.

I put a scope (UTG 3-12x) on my Notos pistol to get better grouping. This is set to 13 fpe currently, can go to 16's but losses shot count. Will get it zeroed this morning.

@ 8:30 AM put a 2nd coat of varnish on the home build gun stand . Later after i go to town i will shoot .

Where'd you get the buttstock? I'm digging the color!

Tuned the VK 13m5gr to 970fps out of the impact, getting minute of eyeball at 35yrds, and holding minute of squirrel head at 91yrds with 11mph winds.

Shot 90 pellets from My trusty JTS!

one of my HW100's had a leak, suspected the fill port O-ring, added silicone oil to fill probe and filled with air, did a leak check with my ultra sonic leak detector, no leaks detected, holding air, must have been a dry fill port O-ring.....

The buttstock is from Wess @ Airgun Archery Fun. I bought some FDE paint from Amazon and the barrel (.177 cal) is a take from my Kral puncher. I had to lengthen the 12 mm step to 40 mm long on my lathe.

That' wicked! Did you use the lathe to also make a probe or did you just take material off the factory one as well? I have a 1:14.6" .177 barrel I would not mind putting on my Notos

I forgot to say, also from Wess it's same as the pp750 .177 probe. I did make one for my 25 cal and also the experimental 30 cal.

After work moved the scope forward on my Ghost Carbine and shot three groups at 40 yards to reconfirm my zero…
