    Recommendations for 22 cal pcp rifle

    Seems like a tall order to get 30 Ft-lbs AND 100 shots out of the box . Particularly in that price range. Following with interest.

    Custom Cerakote in Massachusetts/Connecticut area?

    When I worked in a local gunshop a few years back, we used to send all our Cerakote work to Friar Arms in Swansea MA. He did really nice custom work as I recall.

    Hand Pumping PCP?

    I got a hand pump when I got my first PCP ( Benjamin Marauder) some 15 years ago. I don't recall how many strokes it took to take it from 1500 to 3000 psi but it was ALLOT. As others have said, it gets harder when you get near the top too. I remember having to let my 200+# frame come down on...

    Why are FX carbon fiber bottles only rated to 250 bar?

    this is just an educated guess but maybe it's limits on the AMP reg? It may not have been designed and/or manufactured to see 300 bar on a regular basis.

    By the time I was 29

    That would be cool. I'm in the process of revamping my "range" adding steel /reactive targets. My "range" is 28 yds deep but I'm backed by nothing but woods so I can set swingers to 50 yds or so. I also shoot my rifles out at the RG New Bedford. Nice outdoor range for shooting paper and KYL's...

    By the time I was 29

    Right around the Tiverton /Fall river line. Not to divert the thread but are you aware of any AG shoots in RI? Pretty bleak down here (although I'm trying to put together some informal field target.) Glad to know you.

    What's your favorite Bullpup in .25 or.22 ?

    I've currently have two bullpups. One is a FX Wildcat III BT Sniper in .25 and the other is a Benjamin Akela in .22. Both are pretty stock/unmolested. I don't hunt but do find the handling characteristics of either bull pup pretty sweet. ( Even the 700mm barrel on the FX still produces a sub...

    By the time I was 29

    Man I spent allot of time (and money) in Thompsons! In those pre internet days, they were the only place around you could actually handle a quality air gun. Norm was a good guy too! Hated to see that shop close but when Sports Authority moved into town, they were just too much for him to...

    Son-in-law buys his first FX

    Nice story. As an aside now your favorite son in law knows what to get his father in law for Fathers day! :) BTW: I'm also a fan of the VP series in the FX line. I've recently purchased a used Crown VP in .30 and have a new Maverick VP in .22 on the way. For what I do, I see no downside to...

    Difference between Men and Boys

    ...or a well seasoned man just doesn't show her the new purchase. You know kind of like she does with clothes, shoes and handbags. In my house, everybody gets what they need. Some of us get what we deserve :cool:

    BSA R12 for the NA market?

    Just heard back from AoA. They say that the R12 is currently European released only and hey have no indication of if/when they will see a version stateside. They predicted maybe 2024. That said, I'm wondering if you could order a FAC version directly from the UK.

    BSA R12 for the NA market?

    This early video talks about an FAC version of the R12 to be released so I believe it is coming. I've been watching as well but so far nothing but crickets..... I plan to put a feeler out to AoA this week and see what they can predict. That said, I'm real close to just pulling the trigger on...

    DIY Camo Paint Job On My Synthetic Benjamin Marauder .25

    Yea, they all come out a little different. I have learned allot in doing several over the last year though. FWIW, I strove to go with a less dense pattern on this one as compared to some others I've done. The trick was to use a bigger sponge and well spaced blotch's. The good news about any...

    DIY Camo Paint Job On My Synthetic Benjamin Marauder .25

    Sterloc Pro

    If there was a way of transferring the Straloc Pro app I paid for last year, I'd sell it to you ( Cheap). Personally, I could never get it to work for me. WAY to complex IMHO.
