    N/A Where do you shoot from?

    My back porch .I drink my morning coffee and shoot sparrows every morning. Shots to my back fence row are 35-60 yards . I rarely miss a sparrow at this range. My fav rifle is the Cometa Fenix USC Gas Ram .22 At 55 yards the 9" barrel is more accurate than I thought it would be.

    I increased my FPS and accuracy .

    I really like the rifle. I have just shot 300 pellets through it and I did have to tighten the barrel pivot bolt twice but I used loctite the 2nd time and it is still tight. The trigger is very nice and has a solid wall between first and second stage. The rifle is very accurate. The short...

    I increased my FPS and accuracy .

    I was thinking back when I was a teenager and how putting a racing stripe would make your car faster so... I added a white spacer between the butt pad and stock and I'll be darned I think the Cometa shoots faster and is more accurate . Can this be possible? :ROFLMAO: Fenix 400 USC Gas Ram .22

    I don't know about longevity on the gas ram in the Cometa but I do know the chinese made Trail NP I bought back in 2011 is still healthy. I hope the Spanish used a better gas ram than Crosman . If so I should be set for the rest of my life :). This was the old Crosman 3 weeks ago.

    What Prevented you from Shooting Today?

    Both anvils are Hay Buddens. That forge has double Z burners but I only run one to save propane. I built it with 6x9x18" interior but I have doubled the firebrick because I don't need the space. I built my shop 15 years ago. Thanks. I was lucky enough to buy all my equipment before the game...

    What Prevented you from Shooting Today?

    I was lucky enough to get out in the smithy and finish a few knives. Weather has been cooler than normal so I seized the chance to fire up the forge. Normally I can't fire it up June-Sept because its to darn hot. I did take my new rifle out in the shop while a blade was in the temper oven and I...

    Yes its a ball bearing instead of a chisel. Locks up like a bank vault. My Crosman uses the chisel design and its been good also.

    I have a Crosman Trail Nitro Piston that I bought 13 years ago and have shot that rifle thousands of times with no problems. That sold me on gas pistons

    Trigger is nice. Smooth first stage then a solid stop. Crisp break second stage. I am guessing 1.5-2 lbs pull

    Jon sent me pictures of that stock but when I opened the box I was amazed with how nice it was. These rifles are a great value. Build quality is really good and materials are top notch.

    I have had this rifle for two weeks and can't find anything I dont like about it. I use this to shoot sparrows and starlings from my back porch. Most of my shots are less than 40 yards with a few around 55 yards. This rifle will shoot quarter size groups all day long. I am shooting the Crosman...

    Jon set the rifle up mounted and zeroed the scope. My first shot at 25 yards was dead nut center bull. I couldn't be happier

    Thank you. I have been shooting a Crosman NP Trail for the past 13 years. My opinion is this new rifle is far superior. My groups at 25 went from 2” to under 1”.
