    Crosman pellets

    Looks like all Crosman pellets are now made by Gamo in Spain. I purchased five tins of the .177 HP, 7.9 gr. pellets from Midway yesterday. Walmart has the new CPHP in stock but they are listed at 7.6 gr. I didn't want to try them after trying Gamo pellets several years ago. My problem is...

    PCP then springer?

    I started with an FWB 124 in 1978, did a short stent into PCP but never liked messing with HPA so I'm now back to only springers and a couple of Crosman pump-ups. An R7 can go through a lot of pellets in a day with little effort.

    Squirrel hunting preparation advice

    I try to setup a trajectory with a one inch kill zone out to about 40 yards then I don't have to worry much about hold over except at very close range, yeah I've shot under them at less then five yards. Shooting up into trees you don't have to worry about holding under until you reach your...

    WEİHRAUCH HW98 .177

    The 98 is just an 95 in a different stock and a barrel weight. I had and sold one that was shooting 7.9 gr. pellets at 915 stock. I shot several 3/8" groups with it at 50 yards. There was some spring noise but the weight really tamed it.

    Calling starlings lol

    There was a time I could make that starling distress call and it worked extremely well when they had young in the nest, but now with upper dentures I can't even whistle.

    Let’s talk ergonomics and/or maybe just feel for a second.

    Due to the ergonomic of the short PCP rifles I have owned, I have went back to spring piston rifles. They are heavier but hold much steadier then the short and light PCP. I find the Beeman R9/HW95 to be nearly perfect as to ergonomics. Yes, I've given up power, magazines, and a smooth firing...

    The virtues of single shots:

    I grew up with a single shot .22lr and a bolt action .410 shotgun. All my rifles now are single shot, spring piston and pump up air rifles and Thompson/Center powder burners. Not have a quick second shot has made me much more inclined to take a good shot.

    USPS

    Our mail man is great. Our house is a half mile down a private lane from the mail box. If we have a package he brings it to the door. Wish all were that competent.

    Tuning When did you decide to start working on your springers?

    I purchased an FWB 124 from ARH in 1976. It came with a manual that described how to tune it. After a few months I ordered the lubes and did the tune. Of course I have a degree in Machine Design and had access to a machine shop. Been working on them ever since but no longer have the access...
