    N/A epic 2 light or Taipan vet 2 tactical

    Primarily for pellet use maybe occasinal slug use. I like both companies. Which of these 2 do you prefer? now the light has edge in weight for easier walking, the vet has weight for the bench. However, both can do it all. I know the epic 2 light has yet to be released, you can see it on IWA...

    Opinions and Observations

    Budget and not so budget guns garner attention - and deservedly so, for providing decent shooting ability while remaining fiscally sound. Now, for my airgun curiousity, what are the smoothest operating, great accuracy, not to loud options for PCP rifle in the 600-900 dollar range? If you have...

    Knowing the properties of your ammo

    Not sure if this is the particular forum but, whatever. I dropped this PIA from a tree notch with no backing except my neighbors garage, however, I knew a polymag would not exit the squirrels body. It’s designed for minimal penetration. And it does that job extraordinarily.

    Apolo pellets, what's the story?

    Mostly interested in their makeup , mostly lead, or fairly high zinc like AEA/JTS?

    N/A Quietest 30 cal platform?

    Not looking for quick, flippant answer. This is 2 fold question. First, quietest report, ldc or not, and not having that “ping” under your ear. Now, I’m thinking the taipan slash will meet those standards, but , what else is there? RAW ? I’ve had an Evol, any others? Vulcan 3 - great gun, but...

    Metallurgy JSB/FX- JTS- AEA

    JSB and FX are same company both are pretty soft lead. AEA appears to be a harder mix from china. JTS - now I have heard conflicting comments about these. Some say they are very close to AEA in makeup, others say they are re branded FX/JSB? Which of these brands are hardest - softest. I’m...

    Taipan Slash

    Only saw short video on YouTube by a Czech guy had to subtitle in English- it struggled. But what impression I got was valving similar to Huben, but different, 2 safeties, auto load? Not sure what that was. Ballpark 60,000 CZD or about 2,500 U.S. Big number, if accurate, but you know quality is...

    Macavity Arms The MA3 and MA8

    Ok, shot show gave a short glimpse of these. Now, the MA3 appears close to the MA2 except sporting a laminate stock enabling a more rigid mount for bipod use, I believe it also has an external adjustable regulator- can’t swear to this. Ballpark 500ish. Now the MA8 looks to promote all sorts of...

    Out of the darkness

    Much more philosophical than precision, I always feel a spiritual uplift when the days become noticeably longer, even just a bit. Just getting out of that Dec21-Feb 21 stretch , "the dark time" just begins to give me a general uplift. I know I'm 6 weeks and a wake up from exiting another butt...

    N/A 30 cal options

    Looking down the road for 30 cal pellet and 30 cal slug guns. Not a fan of FX, Daystate- electronic, skout- electronic, I know that’s a lot right there. But, for pellets, a non bullpup design appeals and pellets allows for using a shorter barrel to help with OAL. Since its purpose is pellets...

    FX gauges , original or alternatives?

    Years ago, FX was notorious for iffy pressure gauges. Even today, many use Sekhmet or keller. Are these aftermarket brands that much better? Do they justify the cost over OEM?

    Epic teardown and barrel slugging of epic 2

    My buddy Steve just uploaded 2 great videos on the epic 2. Since there was so much info, it made for an extremely long single video. So we decided on 2 seperate vids just under 30 minutes each. Steve does all the recording and editing work. I don't know how to bring these youtube videos here...

    JTS, AEA, JSB , H&N

    Currently many feel JTS - AEA are out performing JSB and H&N and so forth. Issue for me is the lead configuration because I shoot atomics/ hades for pest work. The JSB/FX domes match the best with the guns current tune. If JTS made a hades equivalent, maybe I’d look into it.

    Projectiles, purpose? Necessity?

    This came off another post I read dealing with terminal effects on game from different caliber at modest power levels. As with many of these threads, is super easy to trail off on specific instances of power and caliber applications. One member I respect, L.leon is a huge proponent of modest...
