Genob,
I am considering a build myself. It’ll be a new experience. Just curious…I see the port is drilled on an angle. Is there a benefit to this, or would perpendicular work as well? Thanks for humoring me. John

Today I typed in the Google search bar "Can a airgun be tuned harmonically"
It was such a great read , and I was able to finally able to understand the process of harmonics. If anyone besides me has a hard time on this procedure just type in the above quoted question , and you will find Clarity on the subject.

That's actualy the air supply from plenum to the valve. The external bottle/regulator will bolt directly to this chamber. The exhaust valve has a straight pathway up to the barrel channel. The cut out is for a marauder magazine and to the left will be the bolt activated via side lever. Sorry I didn't show more details as I am calculating bolt stroke to lever angle with minimum side loading when cocking it.

The hand shows scale. Theres no need to crop out my handGood morning!
I just thought I'd mention photo editing.
I don't know how that works on a p/c, but both of my phones have onboard editing to straighten and crop things out of frame, like our feet that always seem to get in our photo's.

Nice Group!
what a weird thing to do. Just looking at a few holes on a grid doesn’t give any context. Maybe just worry about your own photos.Upvote 0
Yeah man…my hand is covering all my tuning holes and sighter shots. Believe it or not I think about things before I do them. Thanks. It’s 2025 I can crop a picture if I want to crop a picture.I thought your hand was covering something?
Sorry, but I was trying to help.

Thanks for the lesson…I’m going to have to start making chips soon. Is 6061 the material of choice?

For the action yes, it has excellent machinability. For anything that will see upwards of 4K psi, I use ASTM rated 7075-T6.

Finished stripping the Rainson stock. Now it's much lighter color, will air dry for a day before applying clear wood sealer.

Wow, that is really nice. I assume you’ve done that before! I’ve got a new AEA Challenger that I’ve thought about stippling. The stock is super smooth and I really have to make sure to grab it tight to make sure I don’t drop it. I’ve never done any stippling before though, so it’s seems kind of daunting. Do you have any tips for a first timer other than doing a lot of practice on scrap wood, tools for the border and the stippling? Great work!
