Well got a new pathfinder today plan on using it as a plinker/ squirrel off the quad gun, something im not overly worried about scratching up a bit or breaking an expensive scope. I put a leepers 4-16 on it stock its set to 150 bar and is pushing 14 gr jsb to 840. With this combo i can use the ctr cross from 20-40 yds so that should work well pretty neet to if i turn the port adjuster down it shoots the 14 to 780 just under 20 fpe for another ft gun! Havent had it outside yet just getting things set up inside but its a cute little gun!

Here’s a pic for you louisCongratulations on a fine choice, I really like mine, am looking forward to reading your further impressions through use, of your new Pathfinder. Now post up picture of the new girl…
Got out for just a bit shooting at a dead tree at 35 yds pellet on pellet on a improvised rest with 14 jsb’s !!!
I think this might be a real good off hand gun too!

Really wish i could get the cheek rest a bit higher yet but i haven’t thought of a good way yet. I need the space between the bell of the scope and the pic rail i want to try to fit another sling attachment toward the end of the rail so the gun hangs 90* to my body. Might have to end up changing scopes but the height its at now gives a good trajectory.

Took mine out of the safe this evening and sent a magazine of JSB Exact Jumbo 18s from 25-50 yards to confirm trajectory and zero. 2 shots at 25 yards the rest at 40 and 50 yards. All would have been one shot kills on chipmunks or English sparrows. Can’t wait to unleash her again come Spring.

Well just to let everyone know where this is going. I took off the compact scope and got a 4-16 leepers which is 15” long and as you will see it fits ok with a medium mount and i was able to put a sling mt under the front of the scope and use the hole in the stock for the other. I also took off the foam pad on the stock and replaced it with a 1/4” piece of plywood that is held on by gorilla tape so now i have a good cheek weld and good view thru the scope.

Probably go to Walmart and try the cphp .22 for less if the Ben hps are working out .

In store or on line ? I've never seen the bens in any store ( Walmart..). Maybe a regional thing ? My Walmarts I can drive to (5 stores) just has daisy pointed .177 , Ruger pointed .22, gamo redfires and rockets .22/.177, crosman destroyers.177 , crosman parahanas, hunterpointed and cphp .22/.177,
That's it for walk in store.

I ordered them but assume they came from my local store cause they were delivered next day $12 and change and a couple dollars shipping

The 500 cphp .22 are like 6.49$ a tin in store ..
Well can't get them to compare maybe a better pellet?
I kinda liked the Ben's in 177 are a 750 count .. lol.
Oh well I guess I'll keep shooting the cphp's

Wronggg....none of my AA guns (springer or pcps) like those pellets. They are consistent in that all groups open up with them. Which is sad because they are cheap and common! I was 100% convinced my S510 (not fussy about its food at all) would shoot em fine. The bengis should be super consistent as per the Ham article on them, do let us know Solo1! Also....20 to 40 yards is dead on for the S510 as well. Such an excellent hunting scope set up! 1 inch drop @ 50....Nothing a little holdover can't fix.

The Benjamins I have are definitely cleaner than the CPHP I have, definitely less flashing on all pellets.

The tins of cphp I dumped yesterday had near no trash .. pretty clean . No loose dust or flakes in the he tin and the tumbling rag stayed clean ..
Every once in awhile I do get the late Friday shift floor sweepings tin ..
