Pyramyd Air Cup 2026 - The Journey Begins With A Stutter

That’s awesome Bill, which caliber is it?

.22, I’m ecstatic. I’ve always wanted a Benjamin or Sheridan and now I have one.

That's awesome Bill! I hope you enjoy it!

I’m going to John. It was great finally meeting you. When I got back to the table with the G3, I scanned the tent looking for you, but unfortunately I didn’t see you. I was going to ask you if you would autograph it. I thought that would’ve been the icing on the cake. We jumped in the truck and headed back to Florida. Know one knows how delighted I was to win the G3. Americana at its best.

And another journey opens before you, congratulations! I'll be very interested following your work on it. That's a very sweet win all by itself!

Yes, I will reread your thread first.

I feel like a kid on Christmas Day. I’m on a high still, not just from winning the rifle, but the whole experience. It was a lot of fun. Elaine and I are already making plans for next year. If you’ve thought about going to the cup or any other Airgun event, just do it. You won’t regret it. The best part about it was the people. Thank you all for letting me share my adventure with you.

Congratulations! That bumpy road wound up at a bit of a nice ending.

Yes, it was. It was also a great learning experience.

I would probably have the same reaction if my rifle went haywire, yet it sounds like you can't beat the experience out there. It's on my list for next year. This is a great thread to read, one of my favorites.
Next time you go you'll be ahead of this I'm sure!

As much as you love airgunning, you will really enjoy it.

 

[Billm]

Congratulations . That is awesome, but don't have too much fun with it.

Never

Bill,
Ed and I came looking for you at the end of the banquet. He wanted to meet you before you left. I was actually sitting with the NY field target contingent and Stephen Archer. As I was thinking "that looks like Bill", Stephen goes "That's Bill M". Did you see Ed when Val had him stand up? I was sitting at his table. Shawn one of the people that built your rifle was also with us.

I think it is great that you won it. Get yourself some 18ish grain pellets, bump up the reg a tiny bit and have fun shooting it!

Safe travels home!
John
