    Topgunairguns

    Although I’ve done business with topgunairguns in the past, something is currently wrong. I ordered a guppy tank from their website using PayPal credit and I received notice of my order from topgunairguns via their automated email system and then - crickets. A week later when no shipping...

    Crosman CPHP target damage question

    I read somewhere on AGN that the CPHP pellets were not allowed at some clubs due to damage they create on targets. I can actually tell when someone is shooting them as they "sound" way louder (even at <20 fpe) when they strike the target or paddle and i can see the extra damage or wear and tear...

    9 years old - Again!

    Yesterday I had one of those amazing airgun days. First, I got to drive out into the countryside in Baldwin County Alabam. Second, I got to meet up with a a fellow Airgun enthusiast. Third, I got to play with some of the most beautiful Sheridan pumpers I’ve ever seen. Best of all I learned a...

    It's a BIG thing......really!

    This post could be put in any number of forum related topics, including hunting, but i thought i would put it in the General catch all place because it really does apply to all airgun disciplines. Two months back I started a similar albeit less informed thread called "reading the wind"...

    Reading the wind

    What I’m hoping to create is a discussion about how different people successfully read wind speed to adjust their POA around the KZ. This is a huge part of improving someones score. Seems like there are a crazy amount of variables. In my backyard alone the wind has weird swirling and shifting...

    The mystery of the tiny tick marks solved

    i have a few scopes that i bought second hand. a few of them had something in common - a tiny little nick / tick mark on the bottom of the beveled portion of the forward bell. Honestly I never gave it much thought, until this morning when I realized that this nick / Tick mark was the result of a...

    Little BIG things

    I’m somewhat detail oriented. i keep data cards for all m Airguns on 5”x7” index cards - a second set of these cards are kept separate from my Airguns for a couple of reasons: #1) inventory / insurance in the event of loss 😳 #2) quick reference to details in the event I have to break the gun...

    What did you learn today - Airgun related

    Today I learned that buying pellets on eBay may not be such a great deal. i was shooting way too many fliers and was thinking WTH. although I don’t normally weigh and sort pellets, I broke out the pellet scale. Apparently an eBay seller buys lots of pellets and sorts them all out and keeps the...

    FWB FWB300S curious question

    Today I had a chance to setup and shoot a new to me 10 meter FWB 300 S. Tyrolene. I installed an inexpensive Discovery 3-12 scope on it. I was shooting JSB 8.44’s. @ approx 560 FPS. Although a 10 meter gun, I zeroed it at 25 yards. What surprised me was when I returned my target to 10 meters...

    Finding YOUR Zero - shot by shot

    Every Airgun is unique and every different pellet choice presents its own ballistic challenges. Although I only punch paper for setting up my Airguns; this method of finding your optimal zero can easily apply to everyone. BUT it is a lot of work, albeit satisfying work, which results in a great...
