Understood, and very astute of you to provide the two extremes of the MicroStrike…🙏

The group from a sub 12 fpe PCP? Simply sweet. That said the only model that holds true to the original Ranger is the new Compact. The other three models are reminiscent of the Concept XR lineup. So I believe that the new, longer Rangers are replacing the Concepts. The resemblance to the...

Great tuning review, but it seems a middle ground is needed. Like maybe see what 14 gr. pellets do at 700-725 fps? I believe that a more moderate power level like 17 fpe would yield a better shot count than the power tune. And still be able to kill small critters out to 40-50 yards. The...

Must agree as my Atomic gets it done too… out to 40+ yards…🙏

I was just checking last night and yes they are on back order… Of my four? Two Atomics, Ghost Carbine and Pathfinder? For my uses the Pathfinder is the most versatile of the three, it really is a sweet, light PCP. They are in stock here…...

Took the picture five at 35-40 yards, sending JSB Exact Jumbo 18s. At those ranges simply wreckage. The one miss? It took off as I sent the pellet…👿 Was there for a brief hour as I was on “honey do” time…🙈

Nice setup and sweet sweet image of your rig and prey…🙏

My expectations are that my stable is capable of more than I can produce. So on my best days in good conditions great groups. On my off days? WTF!🙈 I feel that the OP is geared to those who want that last ounce of performance without putting in the work… Or was it peak potential or some such...

Excitement is good if it stirs positive engagement…🙏 You started this good discussion and some may ramble “into the weeds” but I’ve found many of the replies quite enlightening…🙏

@pepi.gets.it.done , I actually have mounted a power bank connected to the Zulus for extended nighttime ratting…🙏 Thank for your thoughtful suggestion…

Good post. When my first HPA compressor died I pondered the units you mentioned above. Then I simply tallied what I have invested in my PCPs. That made the decision easy to go with a Daystate Super Legerro, heck some PCPs costs as much money these days…🙏

Peak Potential? Highest Potential? The level of performance varies according to the task at hand. Expectations on how any PCP performs “out da box” depends on the end user. Casual backyard shooters, plinkers, pesters and hunters? May have different criteria than competition shooters. Who...

@Pesty3782, that is some awesome sending on your part. Kudos to your skills, Sir…🫡

Being a boy again for a few hours… definitely fun…🙏

Shot nine starlings with my Atomic XR and then did some plinking in my backyard…🤓

I missed this the first time around “weak enough” all you need is about 4 fpe at POI in the kill zone and these small critters are toast. Many have been sold on mucho power, and as you stated opportunitites are missed because of too much power. I can always choose to try and get closer to my...

Tripod being absolutely necessary to support the gun you are describing …🙏 My compacts aren’t for benchrest or long range shooting. They are pesting/plinking machines and thats where they shine for me. Most come to air guns for the low power goodness that can be had compared to firearms. When...

Welcome aboard @Chief_Pellet_Officer …🫡

Proof of concept… My Atomic gets roughly 30 shots per fill at 725 fps for 17 fpe with CPHPs. I’ve yet to take 25 birds in one outing with mine. So shot count is not a consideration for me while pesting. Plus my SCBA is in the car in case I run into a starling murmuration… Took nine starlings...

Many, myself included have found the benefits of going towards smaller, lighter compact PCPs. I can actually take mine out in the field without a porter…🙈 Useful indoors and outdoors, easy to manipulate in tight spaces and capable to 50+ yards on small critters. At home I have the benefit of...
