    Centerfire v. Air…

    I shoot both. But dang, cleaning the centerfires every time you shoot is a pain. I got 3 to do now. Airguns, just shoot and maybe every 5 times run a patchworm and ballistol. Black power is ever worse as you have to clean quickly after you shoot.

    N/A Bye Bye Scopes!

    I cannot see the iron sights without this thing on my tri-focal eye glasses (top left corner of my right dominant eye). https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01D1AJZ06/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 However not needed for peep sights. Funny I see better in a scope without my...

    Small + QUIET to kill rats at close range ?*?

    I saw a video of a rat terrier killing dozens of rats in a stall fast plus a video of normal mutts doing it. Dogs are much faster killers than cats and no runaways to stink in your walls. See if anybody around has dogs that are rat killers. Saw a video of a mink used to root out and kill rats...

    Do You Shoot At A "Range"?

    I shoot at home. I got a 10 yard and 30 yard range but residents behind the target and to the sides. I am in a City. However, I only shoot my low powered springers and pumpers there and seldom my louder RWS 350 or Xisco B28. 75 minutes away is a shooting range and hunting club. My shooting...

    N/A Traditional Airgun hunting

    I have the RWS 350 with a Gamo sling and a 4x16 scope that I use for squirrel hunting. However it is very long and heavy and harder to shoot consistently. I am taking a Primo adjustable tripod and a Teflon sheet taped to the tripod. However I am testing it against the FWB 124D for ranges up to...

    Williams on R7 and manufacturer sight on FWB 300. Cannot afford a better peep sight.

    HW/Weihrauch Using a peep sight

    I read that you get your eye as close to the peep sight as you can, just look at the front sight and the target and open both eyes. However, I cannot shoot good groups with both eyes open with my HW 30 or FWB 300. I do better with one eye closed but not super precise groups. If I just practice...

    HW/Weihrauch Weihrauch HW Model 35 .177 caliber Rifle

    Beautiful and stock design is setup to shoot great with iron sights. Still remember the pictures of the gun and the hunting pictures from the 70s ARH catalog. Man, I wanted one and the FWB 124 as a kid. Fond memories when I shoot and one of my favorites.

    HW35 or HW50

    Barrel could be bent if the gun was fired open. Also I would not like my new gun to have been dry fired. I would have them replace the gun.

    RWS Did I damage my gun.

    I bent the barrel using just the padded vise as described on this thread. Barrel cant looks a lot better but still a slight bend upward. I shot it this morning and it still shot high at 25 yards but able to adjust scope close to bottom. Have about 1.5 full turns left before it bottoms out. Hope...

    RWS Did I damage my gun.

    So you put the pressure in the middle of the barrel with it supported on both ends rather than clamp the receiver side and bend the top of the barrel.

    RWS Did I damage my gun.

    Barrel is definitely bent. Shooting over 14 inches high at 25 yards, Tried to switch the droop compensation mount backwards but the impact point went too low to adjust up with the scope. Have to bend the barrel down or see if a zero droop mount will work. However, the action opens when you bend...

    RWS Did I damage my gun.

    I was cleaning my RWS 350 and I accidentally hit the safety and touched the trigger and the barrel slammed shut. Luckily no concussion or sheared finger tips. I did shoot it after and it seemed to shoot just as hard. I need to check with my chrono. My question is even if the velocity does not...
