    What springer did you shoot today?

    Nice shooting. Those rams are my worst target. Most days I shoot everything else clean, but those rams$%&. Now shot the same target trying to hit the first hole. You will be surprised how many you hit. It will make you wonder why you can't shoot a 30 everytime.

    What rifles have you bought twice?

    I bought a Diana 75. My wife who was not a shooter agreed to shoot 1 shot. Then she shot about a dozen more. She looked at me, sort of nodded at the rifle and said......You need to get one of these for you. So I did. We are having a ball.

    Centerfire v. Air…

    I jumped into the Springer game during the Covid extortion. For years I have shot in the neneighborhood of 50 centerfire matches per year, or more. Shooting good springers at 20 meters is similar to shooting a 6ppc at 100 yds. I still shoot centerfire but down to about 20 matches per year. I...

    Actually with the Vortek 12fb spring I put in last week I am getting 760 with no spacer and 10.3 AA. Yesterday the spring must have got setteled in as all of a sudden it started feeling really smooth and was shooting small groups at 20 meters.

    I have a friend who has bought several rifles from Carel. Not always fast but always positive at the end.

    Looks like they work fine. Nice groups. The 10.4 AA shoots very well in my one D75 and also my TX. I will be ordering dome to try. Thanks for the pics.

    JTS Pellets in .177 - a video

    I would try them because......The 16.08 in .22 shoot in the same hole pretty much at 20m in my D54 , 5 shot groups. At 100 yds I have shot back to back under 1.5 in 5 shot groups with them. So given my experience I will sure give them a try. The rings are notebook paper reinforcement rings. They...

    Any buy it for life air rifles?

    I will add this. I would part with my TX because I can buy another. I have 2 very nice, clean Diana 75s. I will never part with as long as I can still use them.

    Cold crony.

    Sorg in the cord is a common problem with the Shooting Chrony. It comes from wrapping the cord up tight and neat. Ask me how I know.

    I have 4 Stacs. 3 are 4-20 and one is 3-16 and 2 SVED 10-50×60s . Sam is shooting the light AA pellets in the blue tin. I shoot AA 10.3 or 8.4 in the TX or JBS 8.44. 10.3 AA or 8.44 JBS in the one 75 and JBS 8.44 in the other. In the D54 .22 its JBS 15.89 or JTS Dead Center in 16.08. I don't...

    N/A Weihrauch hw97 or Air Arms TX200

    Verydon. You didn't ask but I use Sightron and Hawke. Only thing I don't like about Hawke are the reticles. Too busy for my liking. I like just cross hairs and a dot. You can only shoot what you can see. It seems like the Airgun world hasn't discovered scopes over 12x. I shoot 20 or 24x. Sam's...

    Air Arms TX200 .177 custom spring ?

    I just use the regular 12fpe Vortek spring kit and tune it with pellet weight. I am pretty new in this game but I am going to make a statement I believe in but it will make some unhappy. But here goes. Quit blaming the gun, the spring, the scope, the mounts, the weather, the grease, the shims...

    Diana Diana 75HV Restoration Complete

    For shooting off the bench I find the 300 stocks are a bit too skinny compared to the 75. But they are still very accurate, don't discount them. 75s are a dream rifle in my opinion. What Nitro has done to his is fantastic.

    Good post. The 2 most consistent shooters in our group are myself and my buddy Sam. We are both long time centerfire benchrest shooters.We both shoot pretty much like we do in that game. Front rest and rear bag, free recoil. We try not to touch the gun when firing the shot . I very lightly...
