    DNT Zulus 5-20 daytime performance

    Here's one of a "miss" during the day. Its the 3x12 with the microphone on. I went back and re-zeroed after the miss and it's back on target now! That squirrel got hit at 57 yards the next day, but I didn't record it!

    N/A Compacts Only

    Here’s mine at 27.5”. Western Sidewinder S in .25. Shoot mostly JSB Mk II 33.95g at 875 fps. It is quite accurate out to 100 yards and stacks pellets at 50 yards. I was surprised at how well the full auto groups one you get the hang of shooting it. I’ll throw a DNT or Pard NV or thermal...

    N/A Contemplating a Big Bore Bush Gun

    I will tell you that I love taking my Western Sidewinder S in the brush - 26.5" in OAL. Mine is a .25 but you could go to .30 which is the low end of large caliber, but it will put out a lot of power and is very versital wth slugs and pellets. Considering a Rattler for "big iron" but not a...

    New DNT Zulus first squirrel video

    Here's an untouched video using the 3-12 Zulus of a sparrow at 22 yards. The live viewing is just as good with my scope. I used the rig in the above photo.

    DNT TNC225R - Anything better for the price?

    @BlackICE - You are correct on the resolution. Here are the 2 specs side by side:

    What did you order / receive airgun related today? Thread

    Ordered an Epic ONE from Balistas with a 700mm .25 and a 550mm .177 barrel kit! The .30 barrel kit will be available in January and I will order it then. It was a birthday present from me to me;) I forgot that I also ordered a PARD Landsat 640 C to put on top of the Epic ONE!

    DNT TNC225R - Anything better for the price?

    The 5-20 NV on the TNC225R is the same as the Zulus dedicated 5-20, so you are getting the same scope with the addition of 256k 3-12 thermal. For small game at night thermal is the way to go! The multispectral are the best of both worlds. I have both scopes and at night take the TNC225R out...

    Zulus night vision scopes

    @Tincan - you will see mice in a haystack when they are close to the edges, but not if they are buried a few feet in. I use my ThermNight for squirrels during the day as the thermal spots them and then I switch to IR for the shot. For you and @imtrigerhapy I will say that the multi spectral is...

    Other GK1 vs Leishy 2 250

    I have the GK1 V3 in .22. At 310 bar fill, I get 40 shots before FPS drop off. I'm shooting 25.39 JSB Redesigned both Deep and Shallow (both shoot the same in my gun.) I don't "set" the pellets in like I do on my K1 and have never had any "pellet drop" or accuracy problems. I use both a 0db...

    Thermals and LRF

    The technology is moving fast. There are a couple of 1280x1024 sensor thermals on the market that are priced at the 1024x768 level! What is also becoming more available in thermals is the dual FOV. Great for acquisition and quick switching for final alignment! Unfortunately all those are...

    Thermals and LRF

    I don’t have an NV or thermal that doesn’t have an LRF built in. The shorter range shots - sub 25 yards - I almost use it the most for the correct hold over for pesting. I can get close to guessing distances during the day without a rangefinder but I’m terrible at night unless it’s a familiar...

    New DNT Zulus first squirrel video

    I put a 3-12 on my Cricket 2 Tactical 45 in .22 and it's my main night time grab for pests! Great size for a truck gun and very accurate. The 3x12 works better for < 50 yard shots as the target acquisition is easier than the 5-20 Zulus. Although I really like the ThermNight I have on the...

    HILL EC-3000 POS

    I bought their 2nd filter directly from Hill as well as the 50 hour maintenance kit. They were prompt and professional. For the EC-3000, they have always said that it was for filling up rifles and that's what I use mine for. Apparently the newer EVO model will top off tanks according to their...

    RTI How to Sling a Prophet or Priest?

    Here's mine. It can be converted to a single point like @igolfat8 does. This works for me when I'm hiking further before shooting. I also have an attachment for my back pack. No one at home to take a picture with me "slinging" it...

    RTI P3

    If you find that you have a bit of noise back at the breach when you shoot, put some pipe thread wrap on the 3rd (closest to the magazine) set screw. I found that it did quiet my gun down. Don't overtighten that screw as you may destroy the o-ring that's in it. It doesn't hold the barrel so...

    HILL EC-3000 POS

    I guess there’s good and bad in all products. I had one with a firmware problem and they fixed it and I’ve had no problems for 35 hours of use. I went through the Chinese compressors and had all I could take of them. I have a Coltri that I use the most. It took a lot of time to get to the...

    FX Panthers Hunter Compact FPS Drop

    Thanks @TMH - I found the view but now I have another problem that I had when I got the gun. One of the M4-10 screws (15) came stripped when I got the gun new, so I have never been able to take the barrel off. I guess I'll have to figure out how to remove it and then replace it. I may try...

    FX Panthers Hunter Compact FPS Drop

    I went back and forth on both the reg pressure and the hammer spring tension. I could not get the FPS over 714 no matter what I did. I was shooting 25.39g JTS pellets. I just went and fired it with no pellet in it. I put my hand over the breech and when I shoot it, I can feel the pressure on...

    FX Panthers Hunter Compact FPS Drop

    @Emu - No I was at 175 when I started; ran it down to about 155 (reg at 130); and then filled it to 245 and started fooling with the reg and hammer tension. I never go over the 250 rating.

    FX Panthers Hunter Compact FPS Drop

    I took my HPC .25 out today to site in a changed scope. I noticed that my POI was quite a bit lower than I expected. So I put the chrony on it and to my surprise it was going at 685 FPS where it had been going at 860! No air leaking that I could tell, but I’ll let it sit. I then upped the...
