    How much clearance?

    I have an Airgun Capital LDC in .25 cal. and .30 cal. The .30 caliber is too fat to fit and hits the tank. I measured the cones and the openings are (on average) 0.32". The Zan slugs I am using measure 0.29" or less. I tried firing several rounds through and it is very quiet. I am sure this is...

    QD_Fox magazines

    I found these guys on Ebay when my Avenge-X magazines were causing jams (they were used). I ordered a pair (two for 29) and they arrived quickly. The quality is great but the design is what won me over. I was always jealous that FX owners had such easy-to-load solutions but not any more!

    FX FX STX Superior Liner, 700mm, .30 caliber in a Zelos

    I have ordered a conversion kit from Paul of Paul's Urban Hunter on YouTube. You order your own liker and I chose the FX STX Superior. Can anyone recommend some slugs it might like? The FX Hybrids seem to be an obvious choice and I have them in the cart but I would like to order a couple more...

    ThermNight vs Hydra

    I have been looking at the ThermNight since it came out. The ability to flip back and forth from thermal to NV without losing the sight picture is attractive to me. On the other hand, you have tied your thermal to a single rifle. The Hydra also looks good and can be used as a handheld or a...

    Pyramid Air refurbished

    First, I like PA and have had great transactions with them. I am considering a couple of thier refurbished parts. I checked with them and was told that these do not come with a waranty. If you search for "Pyramid Refurbished" you will, of course, find some posts about problems but that can...

    N/A How are you guys cleaning your bores

    I am looking for something that will make it easy. I am using weed eater string and patches but it is a pain to work with.

    Other 177 project suggestions

    I have an extra Snowpeak bottle adapter valve and I am looking for a way to use it in a build. I have a range of calibers but no PCP .177. Can anyone think of a way to use this in a .177 build since Snowpeak m60s in 177 appear to be unavailable indefinitely?

    N/A Has anyone heard an update about the new Karma line?

    They expected to release the new EQ late last year. It is a non-sls version of their rifle. It is on my list if they become available, otherwise I will be looking for a Snowpeak m60b in 177.

    Airgunarcheryfun

    Has anyone heard from Wes since he sent out the bottle adapters? I would like to get in touch with him and have tried using the email form on his web and by responding to his emails to me.

    Pard NV008s (no LRF)

    This day/night scope is reported to have a ballistic calculator. Does anyone that has this scope tell me how you input the distance?

    Crossman 400 repeater

    I just ran across this in the back of a closet. It was my father's. We think it is about 60 years old.

    Umarex .25 Umarex Zelos 100 shots per fill?

    108 actually. The regulator was set at 2000psi and I have the hammer spring adjustment set flush. I am shooting a little over 900 FPS. I have about $200 in the upgrade.

    Umarex Zelos Bottle Conversion

    I have seen several posts questioning why you would do this. I understand that the Snowpeak M60B is basically the same thing from the factory, I cannot speak for others but I did it because the Snowpeak was and still is unavailable. Plus I was able to use a larger bottle. I present to you the...

    Other Do I need a .177?

    Probably not but I want one! I hoped to justify it by using the price of pellets but the maths just do not work out. Quieter? No again. My Zelos in .25 is so quiet that it sucks in sound from other pellet rifles going off in the area and makes them quieter. The only justification I have is that...

    Bravo3D Zelos Baffles

    I purchased the Bravo3D baffles a few days ago and they shipped the same day. They arrived in the mail yesterday and I used the video on the website to install them. It took MAYBE 2 minutes. The baffles are all uniform and the one that needs to go in first is a different color and has an arrow...

    Digital scopes (not thermal) with or without LRF

    I really tried to do my own work on this one. I have searched this forum and YouTube for information and have come up short. My intended use is daytime fun ( I can't really justify it but I want to play with one) and night time pestling. Budget is under a grand. It looks like there are a few...

    Tuning Zelos Chronograph Results, Nate Chrony

    These were done with a 25 cal. Umarex Zelos with over 200 pellets through the barrel, the regulator set to 2000psi and the hammer spring flush. I used a Nate Chrony that is reportedly calibrated at the factory but I do not have another chronograph to use for comparison. In all of these shots the...

    Pellet selection for tuning

    My chronograph should come in today and I hope to do some tuning this weekend. I have watched dozens of videos on YouTube about tuning and watched reviewers make their first shots with rifles they have acquired. They generally have a wide selection of pellets of differing weights and brands. Is...

    Umarex Tuning in general

    I have seen a few Youtube videos about tuning. They were all for rifles I do not own, but I think I can still apply the principles. I would like to go over my understand of what I have learned and hope some of you will correct me if I am wrong. Rifles I own Umarex Guantlet 2 SL 30 (Hammer...
