Don't take this the wrong way, but you want a lot of performance with a lot of limitations. 200 yard accuracy, not a lot of money, don't like the aesthetics of the best long-range gun, no tether, and you don't cast your own slugs. Without a doubt you're going to have compromise somewhere. I...

https://spyderwebtargets.net/products/st-24xl-archery-crossbow-target-no-speed-limit This is the target that I purchased, and it works perfectly, as advertised. No bolts destroyed, no pass-thrus, and able to extract them enough without damage. This is not a broadhead-friendly target, however. I...

400 grains including the 100 gr. tip

To summarize and helps others, using a 450 fps and lower-rated target WILL NOT WORK. If penetration goes to the fletching, it's over and you can take another $25 and throw it away. Speculating on what COULD work or what MIGHT work is expensive and time consuming. I can verify that the...

So, the 24" Spyderweb target is as good as advertised. It stops my bolts cleanly and efficiently. It allowed me to shoot some groups through the chrony and watch both the accuracy and the speed. First time I've ever been able to shoot a group at a target. Filled to about 2600 psi and did two...

This is not an expensive item at $20.00, but it's junk none-the-less. The attachments completely stripped out when installing and it's useless now unless I cobb something together. On top of that, if you use broadheads the shroud is too small to completely cover them so the blades are exposed...

Thanks, RM.5, Wimp, and everyone else! That's EXACTLY what I was looking for. I had never chrony'd my 909 up until now and the speed outdoes my Yellow Jacket YJ-425. If I had done a bit more research a couple of years ago (and been more willing to spend the extra money) I would have purchased...

I'm trying so hard to dial in my Sam Yang 909 with arrows, but I cannot keep the arrows from being destroyed or lost. I have the best Yellow Jacket compound/crossbow target that I can buy and the bolts still either blow all of the way through or go so deep that the only thing stopping them is...

I'm going through a learning curve on gardening this year. Glynnis and spent thousands on water troughs for planters, tons of different plants, 15 yards of bark, a crushed granite courtyard, you name it. But my pride and joy are the berries. Blackberry, two varieties of red raspberry, golden...

Things have been a little all of the place lately around here. Busy with work, squeezing in some fishing days, doing some plinking around the farm, and Glynnis is getting knee replacement surgery tomorrow. Yesterday Glynnis was practicing some song lyrics (she sings in a rock/blues/country...

I have the .25 MKII using NSA 26 gr. slugs and the 700mm slug liner. I haven't checked my FPS in in about two years, but last I checked I was in the low-mid 800's. I've never chased maximum FPS with my gun. I have varied little from the stock tune. Others have 'pressured me' to beef up my...

Yesterday was mostly naps (Friday night was the monthly poker game with the fellas) and getting gear ready for a fishing trip coming up in a week. When doing boat work, I always keep an eye out for any critters that need ventilation while putzing around, and often I keep the FX MKII on a rolling...

On the second time out this year, Steve O and I closed the deal on a turkey. We're still trying like heck for the goal of both of us getting a bird on the same morning for a photo op, but through a comedy of errors from misfiring guns, spooking birds, wounded ones getting away, you name it, we...

Yes! I make them on the grill with a slathering of homemade spicy plum BBQ sauce.

I've been working on some murals and mosaics in the shop the last couple of days. To take a break from the constant drone of the tile saw, I took a short (50 yard) walk through the commodity barn and surrounding area for some Euro action. I wasn't disappointed as there were about 15 birds that I...

The incessant rain has been highly annoying. In addition to the amount that NorCal has been getting, it's been a timing issue that whenever there was opportunity to get out either in the field or on the water it's been pouring or flooding. Yesterday and today are beautiful here. Chilly in...

Texan .50 with Diamond stock

A couple of buddies and I are looking at possibly taking a roadie to Texas. Two of us are airgun guys, one is strictly rifle. We're looking for a place that's either high or low fence, has multiple species (pigs, whitetail, possibly exotics), has accommodations and guides, and is reasonably...

In addition to the many other pics we took, this one was the most amusing. A very large gopher kept poking his head up in the middle of our display booth. There we sat with $15K worth of airguns, tanks, ammo, etc. watching a gopher mock us from 5' away. If that's not emasculating, I don't know...

To follow up, the booth was great success at the Independence Day Celebration. We engaged with the general public for hours and had varied and interesting conversations. It's interesting to note that this is an old-fashioned parade and BBQ, not an outdoors show, gun show, swap meet, etc. We...
