    Bargain block now loaded with Akela and Kratos

    It is a stunningly bad idea to put 4k pressure into a system designed for 3k. You are asking for a bomb at face level. A regulator does not magically increase the capability of the bottle and block threads. That Conner kid is notorious for trying to amp up guns by overloading the air system...

    Benjamin Gunnar listed on PA now.

    Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Mr. Racing. The Reximex brand has not penetrated the U.S. market yet, so there is little first-hand knowledge to be shared. I feel my Tormenta is lacking a bit in stock form for a .25 cal. My unregulated gun runs from 205 bar to 200 bar - then it...

    Reximex TORMENTA puts in the work

    September BONKS video. Reximex Tormenta and .25 AA, filmed with Tactacam 5.0 FTS. I enjoy filming my shots, but it does take some more pre-shot execution to make it happen. 36 shots today, I dumb thumbed 5. Blame it on late season allergies.

    Reximex TORMENTA puts in the work

    I am going to mount the Tactacam 5.0 and FTS on this gun for the next trip to the farm. It's so effective and fun to shoot that I have to share it with y'all. It'll be a week or so... standby for more :)

    Reximex TORMENTA puts in the work

    That was from 41 yards. I took a detour down an offset in the field that I have not frequented. It was pretty close to the boundary of the property, so I took my time to ensure any pass through (or pass-by) would be contained where I have permission to shoot. That little gun gets 40 usable...

    Reximex TORMENTA puts in the work

    Another quick trip to the squirrel-lands. The TORMENTA continues to impress me. I love a gun that makes you look good 😉. The .25 TORMENTA is a smooth shooting, pleasant companion that puts about 38-ish fpe into my targets. The Donny FL Tatsu in .25 is very nice addition to the system. This...

    KYL (know your limits) rack competition scoring question

    Hit vs Miss is a heck of a lot easier to rule on than "did it hit HARD enough" to count as a hit. The targets on rack in the video above cannot spin "all the way around". In the end, it will be the match director that sets the rules. At my home range, I am the match director, sole competition...

    A little perspective was called for, and I realized that I was going to survive that trial. Really, it helped me get a handle on some other issues that were causing more grief than was warranted. God does not grant patience; he sends tests that allow us to grow our own patience.

    LABOR DAY SALE AND FREE SHIPPING - UTAH AIRGUNS!

    No thank you. I would not sell these Labor Day special pellets for any amount of money. That would be beyond wrong to make a profit on UA mistake, IMHO.

    Wow, sometimes you just gotta sit back and tell yourself things will get better. Thursday night...

    Wow, sometimes you just gotta sit back and tell yourself things will get better. Thursday night my two work buddies and I went to the local lake to chase catfish and drift around on the pontoon. This was going to be the last trip of the summer (my first trip, for reasons...) It rained buckets...

    LABOR DAY SALE AND FREE SHIPPING - UTAH AIRGUNS!

    Utah Airguns came through for me - thank you UA! The package arrived today, with three tins absolutely smoked in shipping. The contents of those three tins were unaffected and were transferred to empty tins from the storage pile under my workbench. It looks like the freight company may have...

    State Laws on hunting with airguns.

    As both cavallo reservoir and elephant butte are state parks, I would suggest you don't do that without also checking with the state parks department :) I'm not just a stick in the mud bob, I'm in the mud the stick is stuck in!

    KYL (know your limits) rack competition scoring question

    I use my KYL rack most often after I change something on the gun or scope. Fresh paint and start at the large paddle. Once I feel that I am on centers, I move to the smaller paddles until I have a miss. Then I back up a size (or two) and get the POA dialed in to better match the POI. I swear...

    State Laws on hunting with airguns.

    Furbearer and Auodad are also permitted by NMDGF. Note, furbearer also includes mountain lions. At your own risk...

    KYL (know your limits) rack competition scoring question

    AFAIK, a hit on the paddle is a hit, be it a nick or a solid smack. A hit on the hanger bar is not a hit. There should be no requirement for a swing around. IMHO.

    Ever have one of THOSE days...?

    It did not take long... the Hades is a no-go for this gun as it is currently setup. I could chase down a better setting, but why change what works and is already set? I have 8K+ AA domes on hand - I'ma stayin' with that.

    Ever have one of THOSE days...?

    I did not answer you question... I have not shot the Tormenta past 60 yards, yet.

    Ever have one of THOSE days...?

    I have shot the Kral .25 Knight in benchrest competitions at 50 yards. The guns are capable with those pellets on the novice level. I have not shot pests at more than 150 yards, 120-130 yard is about the end of my confidence to hit and that is due more to the scope and mirage. Wind drift is...
