That's an excellent feature b/c unless you're looking directly at the read-out the moment you fire, you'll miss it.

RAW REPORT

I'm not going to. First off, there's no instruction for doing so in the owners manual Further, I don't think that's a fix. I'm getting plenty of fps; it's just not adequately regulated. I've been reading many accounts of RAW reg issues. Disappointing, to say the least.

Just got back from the field where I went to zero my RAW after a full shot string and resultant data entry into Chairgun. I had her zeroed at 47 yards as a tentative zero. Chairgun says the optimal zero range with the actual data I obtained is 39.3 yards. Seems the zero is effectively the same. Three shots confirmed this with all three entirely in the red without any turret clicks 
. So, I had the rest of the afternoon to actually hunt, as I had already affixed a Chairgun Scope Cap View print-out to my scope cap at that zero.
I also was able to see how many bottle fills I get with my Omega 12 cu-ft 4,500 psi CF tank. I got two complete re-fills (160 bar to 250 bar) and two partial re-fills (one @ 160 bar to 220 bar, and the second @ 160 bar to 200 bar). I could have got an ever-diminishing number of partial re-fills, but that would be ad absurdum. Overall, a wonderful day (except for an encounter with a whackadoo homeless dude who took issue with my rifle, although he was trespassing on private property I had permission to be on.) Luckily, the encounter happened just as I was packing up for the day. He rapidly fled the area after I called for backup from the property's security team. Where do they get these people, and why do they kept sending them to me?!

Got the new Canopy up to keep my soon to be HMx out of the elements when out shooting. Still need 4 more anchors but the cement blocks will do for now.

Will you adopt me? I may have to find a new shooting spot. The homeless horde has infested my now ersatz Happy Hunting Grounds, and not all of them play well with others. Thanks Obungler >:-("Imold"Got the new Canopy up to keep my soon to be HMx out of the elements when out shooting. Still need 4 more anchors but the cement blocks will do for now.

Hey, Tony! Are the "homeless horde" smuggling in drugs or is it people now? Maybe there should be an updated version of hunting regs put out? You know, new game animals listed, invasive species, suckers on society and the like.

I know what you said is a joke; but when I night-hunted, I often would spot eyeball reflection with my NV spotter and upon zooming-in, would see it was a homeless person lying down in the brush. Those eyeballs look just like bunny eyes with NV!

Actually, the homeless don't bother me per se. I've been immunized to their presence after having lived in San Francisco for nine years before moving down here on the border. What grinds my gears is that I jumped through all the hoops: I got my hunting license and got written permission from the land owner to target shoot and hunt on the land. I treat the homeless as I would anybody else; you leave me alone, I'll return the favor.

I finally got my new modem installed and retrieved the pics of my RAW from my iPhone. I'll attempt to post one here as a test. If it's successful, more to follow

Here goes. (I wish I would have taken some pics of the receiver in the vice as I adjusted the trigger):

Yeah, I lucked-out. The stock blank cut well; mostly green on the outside. Martin said that's rare; it's a crap shoot what's going to show on the surface. The more I have her, the more I'm appreciating the beauty of the Forest Green laminate. And since I've had her out in the field a few times now, I realize that she's not that big a deal to manage. I'm going to keep the laminate and forego buying the walnut sporter w/o the adjustable cheek-piece. Cooler heads have prevailed once again

I really like how you are using the bungee cords to hold your rifle, in all the years I've never ever thought of doing that, I've always just dealt with being careful when I have my rifles in my holder on the bench..Nice...
