What springer did you shoot today?

Jump to latest Follow Reply
I finished up the re-build of my Diana 75. Test fired it, got it zeroed at 10m, and I'm going to give it a workout this afternoon when the temps come up a bit more. I've worked on some complicated guns over the years, and the 75 ranks up there amongst the most complex of firearms or airguns. The Giss system is some amazing engineering.

Thanks! I'm building another .177 electric springer conversion, an H&K MSG-90. It's a replica of the German 7.62x51 dmr. I've finished machining the new .177 barrel sleeve, the magazine and spring/gear system modifications are next.

Knocked off a little early. Wanted Kim to shoot the 300S now that kinks were worked out of the sights. Put a big smile on her face. Started saying maybe she needed one. While she was doing that I got the MK1 HW77 zeroed so we could shoot together for a bit. Good time was had by all.

Through my eyes, that 77 is to die for. Great setup. Crow

Sprinkling a bit here in Northern California so shooting indoors.
Going to try and shoot FT again this week so I am getting some offhand practice with the TX.
I have been shooting the PRod lately so picking up the 11 pound TX is a bit of a chore for this ol’ fart..
I shot a few to warm up then five more.
I seemed to have dropped one from the group a little bit,

This was my last buy, a HW98 .20. Had such high hopes, but started as a dog. Persistently shot it as much as possible. View attachment 405997Today you would swear Mother Teresa touched it or something. And with JSB’s 13.?? which it shot accuracy like an Uzi, now impressive. Champion. I took a 97 to shoot as well but the 98 stole the show. Getting dark before 5 is driving me crazy. Crow

Another morning shoot. I’m still shaking talking about these guns HW77 .25. This gun at 47 yds was amazing.

So easy to watch your shot. Great fun. As well this HW97th .25 it worked like a charm.

There’s nothing I would change, except become a better shooter. Here’s 5 shots at sow’s head, 47 yds.

My thumb nail about a dime. Lost my dime. Last up another Pro Sport .22. Has the Vortek kit. This gun is in my Air Gun Hall of Fame. So are the other two.

I have an ARC kit for the .177 PS. Hopefully install next few months. Great lines on this rife. Crow

I really enjoy shooting the 77 and 97 in.25. Most fun for plinking of the 4 cal. Crow

Thank you. I got lucky. The walnut on the 300S looks to be nice. Believe it will be a looker when rejuvenated.

I have the 300 as well. It has the sweetest trigger. Crow

Try the 20.06 FTT's in your .25's. My WebleyTomahawk zips them out @ 720

Today i had a wonderful time blowing leaves (at least i keep telling myself that ) 4 hours on the zero turn and 2 hours with the Stil .
Yes there is a disadvantage of living out here in the woods . did shoot 6 shots with the IZH 46 then darkness hit .

I’ve got an hour cleanup and done. Hallelujah. I have the Stihl Br 800. Too powerful, almost spins you around. And you feel it at the end of the day. Price of the woods. Crow

Busy day. And the sun sets earlier. But found a bit of time to shoot the XS28M .25.

I’ll try and find that lead. I’ll try it in the HW80 or HW90. The 77 or 97 is nowhere near that. Thanks Crow
