i have one....about 2 years old.now. Its a great compressor for the money. I also have a Supercharger. The Air charger is 3x faster and 2/3 the cost. Tops off a 88cuft tank from 3000-4500 in...
Congratulations Ron!

Jan...Huma makes a internal reg for your gun that works properly. They also make an external reg that’s about 180 euro for DIN valve tanks.
You can also just let your big tank get down in...
Well, so far it’s not more accurate. I wish it was. It may be more accurate than some unlimited rimfire guns...but it’s certainly not as accurate as others.
I can hold velocity spreads around...
Thanks....
Here is a rough breakdown of what you can expect to spend.
Rifle. 4250.00-4500.00
Bullet die. 550.00
1 ton arbor press 75.00
Sizing die holder 30.00
Sizing dies. ...
Thanks, guys.
That kind of card can be shot in the right wind. Averages are around 16-17x in most normal conditions.
Pete, the gun is tethered so you can shoot until you get tired of it.

I posted a while back about the start of my journey with getting an air rifle to shoot slugs/bullets. The lofty goal was to compete with unlimited class rimfire in a meaningful way. I’ve leaned a...
There is no single correct answer to that question....and no simple or fast way to arrive at the correct answer for your particular setup. Somewhere between probably 850 and 1000.
Also, you are...
Nice job, Jan!

Hi Keith, This is just what I’ve seen in air rifles. May not be the same for Rimfire until you get even further out than 100y. The top 100y air rifle shooters shoot as fast as they possibly can on...
There is a direct parallel to this in air rifle BR. 25-50M is the precision distance. If you attend a precision match, the same guys are always winning.
Extend the distance to 100y, and now...
That’s correct, Paul.

Hi Jack,
No sir...it’s a completely different target. The rings are bigger and the pellet class will be scored with a .350” plug. The Rimfire/Slug class will be scored with .224” plug.
Here...
Thanks, Landy😀
Thanks guys....this is a group effort from myself, my wife Matti, Joe Friedrich, Lou Fontana, and Dick Strever.
Mike
Thanks, Paul. I think you and your competitors will enjoy it. We hope to have everything up and running real soon. We will keep everyone posted.
Mike
The problem lies with the pellets. They are the limiting factor. 3x the drag or more than rimfire....they work fine, but just blow like crazy at 50.
Instead of waiting for the world to come...
Guys don’t use strippers in FT because they increase accuracy....they are used in FT because of the muzzle brake effect to reduce rifle movement during firing.
Mike
Yes...it’s just an expensive activity when done properly. Not really different than most equipment based competitions, I suppose.
The USARB implemented a stock type class where cost of scope...
Pete...it’s pretty difficult to take the the equipment out of a game that so heavily relies on a piece of equipment to get the job done.
If everyone dumped their ammo into a big pile and stirred...
250 is just a number. There will always be guys that work much harder and get a little more. It’s the reason that competitions exist.
The only way to “level the playing field” is to add...
There would be no way to shoot semi competitive against Rimfire without slugs. It’s the only way. Slugs have also been legalized for use in the USARB Unlimited division.

If you get a pcp at about 12 fpe....1 pump on a hand pump equals about one shot. I had only a hand pump my first year and it served me well.
If you got a 10m type gun...which are around 6-7...
I think I understand what you are asking...and No I don’t think the snaggy barrel was related to the lead used. I think it was due to it being a crudely made barrel with no hand work added to it to...
