I have two Notos and one PP750. I also have three drop blocks and 2 CF bottles( 220 and 360)
I have two aliexpress regs, and a Huben Notos dream i bought from Haj. One reg I al going to work on clocking, one I sent to Wes with my Part 66 for him to clock, and I have the Notos dream to work with in the interim. The notos dream will eventually land on a Notos project because it has a built in plenum.
The PP750 is the rifle I am running the notos valve on now until hopefully I can clock the aliexpress correctly, or I get one back from Wes haha. The 177 PP750 doesnt need the plenum size, and I want it to be very compact in the end, so this reg won't stay on it.

Today I tuned the reg to the factory setting of 1400 psi and attached the 220 bottle and filled to 4500 psi. I took 54 shots and still have 2500 psi in the bottle. I ran through all my 3d printed mags, two 15rd Carm and two 12rd Maple.

I started with a Huma mod 30 22 cal 4 baffle sets, my groups tightened when I changed to a Tatsu.

I adjusted the reg, filled to 4500, and shot about 100 pellets with my PP750 177
Recorded the 100 pellets with Labradar LX.
I also compared SST to Carm 15rd and Maple 12rd mags. I didn’t see a difference in the front rest only shooting I did. I will do it again on a double rest. I have the trigger adjusted down to the minimum that allows cocking and the safety to work. It will stay there as long as I’m just doing 10m indoor bench shooting.

it’s putting out about 9-10 fpe right now with 10 and 8 gr pellets.

Swapped all the scopes around since I got the vector 10x44 and I'm shipping the vector 2-8x32. V3 had the Arken, but with how tall that gun is, the new 10x44 with the rings it came with suits it much better and it much lighter. The U2 went back to wearing the arken as it's not as tall and it's a near perfect placement and it's very well balanced and the Akela has the 4-16x44 Vortex tactical diamond back as far forward as I could put it.

Also shot some iguanas, and "spotted" a coyote lol.

Today I played around with a 3 D printed side wheel. It is nice because it come apart and has a magnet that holds it together. That way it fits in a case. I don’t prefer the nautilus style wheels because of the pointer gets weird. But it is nice so I tried it and decided to sand and paint it. It looks cool but I just don’t like the pointer. So I noticed it was made in parts and I knocked the parts apart. I then noticed I could attached my Rowan Engineering metal round side wheel to the quick disconnect and bang. I have a removable side wheel. The only problem is it’s sitting out a little further than I want. Pick picky I know . Does anyone make quick disconnect removable parallax wheels? I am looking for a new scope and want the wheel to be easy to remove and replace for travel.
 
I finished putting the Buck Rail Tactical Kit on my .25 Avenger and took it to a buddy's barn to take down some pesty Starlings.
I received the aluminum side cocking lever for the NOTOS and will install that today.
I also received a care package from Rocker.. a plethora of stuff for the Crosman lego guns. I'll sort through those today and use what I can for a few things I have in mind.

Let me know how the cocking lever goes. I'm thinking of buying one for my PP750

Initially he was 98yds away, I got him with the radar. I tried calling him in in, but he didn't care. So I got on youtube and played one of my go to calls and he immediately turned around and started walking. He wasn't more than 30ft away before he turned into the bushes.
