    Diana Is my Diana 34 worthy of a scope?

    NA! I'm probably just basing my results on luck, but with three separate setups, all Dianas, 34, 36, 54, with the same results, it makes one wonder why would I do it any other way?????? But I'll take luck when it means, mount it, set it, and forget it! Best of luck to ya!

    Diana Is my Diana 34 worthy of a scope?

    You might actually try something that has proven to work, or you can keep sending scopes back, bending barrels that really don't need bent, risk never having a rifle that will leave you doubting it. I'd suggest doing as I did, and knowing this worked using an over 20 year old less than 100...

    I Have Finally Decided On my Hunting Setups,,, Took 8 Months

    Like it says, I started my hunting air gun collection 8 months ago, after buying the 54 Diana AKP. I have carefully selected 7 more springers to that collection since. and yes, only springers! That 54 AKP is the most accurate, and hardest hitting springer I own, and out to 50 yards on par with...

    Nice shooting! I think most Weihrauch rifles shoot better than most of us are able to shoot. You have a keeper!

    Beeman Weihrauch HW30S($4.40) for less than a McDonalds Happy Meal($5.69)

    Those are great numbers! 7.87 grain on my newer 30s was only 536.8 fps, but only had a spread of 4.35 for 10 shots, and under a dime at 20 yards. My most accurate luckily,, is JSB RS @ 632 fps with a 15 fps spread when new. But after 1000 RS pellets and many other kinds and rounds. Today...

    Beeman Weihrauch HW30S($4.40) for less than a McDonalds Happy Meal($5.69)

    Great job! Turned out great, how is the bore on that rifle. It is the only thing I see that could make a difference in performance from a newer gun. It is definitely transformed to a very nice rifle, and what a reward for your efforts!!!

    The 177 HW77K First Hunt

    I hunted with 22 rimfires for decades, and can assure you with literally 100's of squirrels taken, a high velocity 22 is a very POOR choice for squirrel ammo! And you hit the nail on the head, velocity is why! Decades ago, when I learned to use standard velocity ammo, I seen a dramatic...

    The 177 HW77K First Hunt

    I hunted with 22 rimfires for decades, and can assure you with literally 100's of squirrels taken, a high velocity 22 is a very POOR choice for squirrel ammo! And you hit the nail on the head, velocity, and to heavy of bullets, creating to much overpenetration, to transfer quality energy to the...

    The 177 HW77K First Hunt

    That Laminate screams Hunt with me, in my opinion, it also wears a 4-16x50 Airmax scope today.. That is a bad c-phone pick and the colors are not right in it. But I am so fond of this stock I'm looking for Cappie to sell his 177 so I have a little bro for my 22 cal. I'll find one someday, and...

    HW/Weihrauch Who shoots 22 Weihrauchs at 50 yards or more?

    Well Mined you, all my efforts are with my forearm resting in my left hand, on top of bags. I am only interested in the best accuracy for the way I shoot them, and mostly that is using anything I can find around me to steady my springers, from the HW77K,,,, (match to that mean green L.E. of...

    The 177 HW77K First Hunt

    At daybreak I had 48 degrees yesterday, but those are not common mornings this early in the season here. At 70 I don't take the heat well myself! So looks like this week I'll have to lay back a little. but really like it with the trees loaded this month, gives me a lot easier job moving in with...
