My 25 has too much power for indoors, the 177 is about 40% less

I wish they carried more of the H&N pellets. I know you’re a Crosman pellet guy, but hey we like options.

No.. it's crosman still sells to me local in store not a mail order only or 500 mile drive in the hopes there sold ..

So in my opinion the others don't really need my business ..

Now on the midway pellets ... I see a lot of shipping horror stories on open time or damaged ...lol. Buyer beware on them ..

I hate that my local Walmart keeps them locked up with PB ammo so I have to try and find an employee, which usually means going to the auto desk and ringing the bell.
Last time I did curbside pickup to avoid all that since they can’t staff the store.

That rarely occurs . There's someone handy most all times , but you can't blame them for keeping them locked up due to all the shoplifting .. where my problem lyes is being late to the store and there sold out till the next truck unloads more ..lol. Not as bad now due to buy den omics . When they were cheaper and could easier but the whole brick .. ( full 6 tin box). ..

Take like norma . Beretta bought them and opened a big plant in Georgia. And they use to be local buy in big town . Now there not anymore. I asked the guy why there not selling them anymore and he said they order them and reorder them but your hey never send any , so he gave up .. he said only gamo, crosman , Ruger, daisy sends all he asks for no problem, the rest just don't .

The guy at Walmart also said there locked up cause it's / there a must be 18+ item / no minor's can just grab up and buy thing .. then I guess they can buy spray paint to huff no problem . Crazy

I get carded more often buying spray paint than alcohol. I have a mostly gray beard ,a receding hairline, and a general look that hope is a young person’s folly.

I ordered a Jet2 on Midway. Can I swap out the air tank with a Ninja bottle? I have one with a regulator fitting on it.

Midway.... just assume you will have to use pellets from there for plinking. They only seem to pack them well if your order completely fills a box.

This kinda makes me want to try to buy a thing or 2 from midway if any proceeds go to support this stuff

Back when I use to get reloading stuff from them ,but tapered off since.. I'm not big on mail ordering to start . Most is last ditch not found local stuff..

 

[Hateful McNasty]

Just to add. It looks the future jets are going to be regulated. (Jet2qer -- "quite energy regulated") .

My new Jet2 .177 is wearing a 4-12 BugBuster. It shoots MiesterKlugen very accurately. It unfortunately does not shoot CHP's, well. It seems to me .177 is a fussier caliber for pellet/gun choice than 22's.

Funny it .22 that hard to size for me. They tend to run big vs pellets available.
But I will say cphp in .22 are a tad small in head sizing. Soft catching them I find minimal rifling on there heads vs the skirts .. I guess a tighter leade is best overall. I also think the latest ( post covid) "airpower" velocity sports cphp ate a little lax on that then the old ( before COVID) cphp primer were.

When your dealing with holding company stuff it's that strive for the cheaper better product. ( That's cheaper for them to make and better profits for the shareholders )

They make great fodder for my Blitze

After shooting this rig for a couple thousand rounds now, I have learned alot. The pressure curve is severe on these. An excellent way to learn how to manage an unregulated gun. I 1st was shooting with no more than 120bar, indoors 5m. I added a silencer and it shot the MiesterKlugen 7gr well, chp's awful at low pressure. At mid pressure 120 to 180 bar it shoots H&N sport 8.18gr well, MiesterKlugens not great, chps ok. At high pressure 180 to 250 bar it shoots chp's very well, H&N ok, MiesterKlugens awful.
I have been filling the gun, shooting 2 mags chps, then 2 mags H&Ns, then MiesterKlugens into the yellow zone on the gauge. It is interesting that the point of impact doesn't significantly change when using the different pellets/pressure. This is at 5m shooting 5m targets. Next is test at 15m, same scenario.
Big pressure curve = bigger learning curve.

Not that sale price but can be added to cart

Of course in my opinion hatsan ruined it like there rest of there guns putting that QE cr@p on .. it was kinda gaugy enough without it .. then what was wrong with the non QE style?
