    Pellet staging

    commercial pellets are swagged, not cast. Got to be a nightmare trying to cast 8-14gr pellets with a hollow base. yes, there are solid base pellets but you need those to be dead on and dead soft for your particular bore. The thin skirt acts as a seal. Air units do not have the oumph at crack...

    bedding not "hard"

    old material will sometimes turn out that way. it might be quite awhile before it fully cures. there are mixes that get hard to a pliable state in about 4-8 hours but full cure will not be reached for at least 48 hours sometimes longer. Adding heat is not always the best choice- some do not...

    Air Force Talon air

    Butch in addition the stand alone compressors there are booster units that run off air supplied by a standard compressor- not that they are any real saving dollar wise but less failure rate than the chi-com stand alone units. Also those small 3-500 dollar units are not meant to fill scuba tanks...

    maybe the nut you got is not Acme ( not typically found in hardware stores) then there is the possibility that, if it was ordered, it was picked wrong or packaged wrong. (or it is a 12 count metric thread, diameters differ) It happens. Gm kept shipping the passenger sider door handel...

    br stock for a win 52c ?

    D's are single shot, I believe that the factory sport class requires a magazine, D's & the Elusive E's do not have such.

    Shooting The FX Impact MKII

    Pellets are almost pure lead- very soft. Easy enough to make a push through sizer out of a bit of tool steel. Course I have a small machine shop which gives a bit of an advantage in that department. but these are not rocket science, drill bit, import reamer, toothpaste ( cheap polishing...

    br stock for a win 52c ?

    over my term here on earth I have seen a lot of various "factory " class rules. Same with "sporter" . The over all problem is how far one can bend / strech the rules. There are 2 types of 52c's one is a match rifle with a meduim or heavy weight barrel- very common . The other is a sporter in...

    Beeman 400 (Diana75) value?

    had one for many years. Alas I drifted to the dark side, first co2 then pcp- mostly because of getting into benchrest at 25 meters and beyond. For its intended purpose it is as good as anything else including the highly regared FWB 300 units. The transistion from springers to CO2 to PCP was all...

    I need some help

    likely the best thing you can get would be the daisy 753s - this is a single stroke/pump pneumatic rifle not a springer. Springers are notoriously difficult to shoot off a bench. Designed for 10 meters ( 33 ft apx) .177 cal apx. 350- 400 fps for a 8gr pellet. This unit is what is most used for...

    Air Strippers - Do they work?

    any add on unit yes, ported barrel no.

    Air Strippers - Do they work?

    terminology not a scrubber, ported extension of barrel , gas diverter, or ported barrel . An added on barrel extension would look something like the various muzzel flash/ recoil reduction units for powder burners. all we want to do in a air rifle/pistol is divert the compressed air column...
