580cc and it saved a whole pound! Plus the the bottle feels much better to grip when shooting off hand and it moves the center of gravity back further so the balance feels better.
This is a tester. The production ones are being anodized as we speak.

Bro that looks so good it should come with a NSFW label!My wife puts up with alot, but that would probably be my death and/or at least throw shade on my airgunning for quite some time
Shot the 30Y .177 challege with my TX200 and we did well! Lubed the chamber and the first couple shots were squirrely as expected. Then I hacked out the foam in my Ghosts case to fit the Bipod....much nicer now, I can just grab the case and its got everything inside.

I had one charge from 150y to >40y in about 15 seconds like 2 weeks ago… just enough time to turn the camera on the Zulus on and fire a couple panic shots at him as he ran away.
It took longer for me to get my breathing back under control… although I’d argue I’ve never recovered. They really oughta put out some PSA’s about the dangers of coyote fever. My brain is basically only in auto pilot mode now unless I’m hunting yotes. Reality is no longer real too me until I get some serious fur on the tailgate. Idk if I’ll ever or even want to recover from this. Something about doing it with an air rifle just makes it even sweeter to me.
Don’t pray for me y’all I can’t be saved now but pray for my girl and our cute little dog. For some reason the enjoy my presence and like it when I’m home

Sounds like you got the right tool for the job!
Around here they would go quickly, for some strange reason nost have 3-9?. After I turned 60 I to sold my 4- 16. What have you gone to?
Mostly 5-25x56 or 6-24x50
Really happy with the CVLife FFP BearSwift, BearMight and BearPower scopes. Super sharp optics and tight turrets. Currently $200-$250 due to tariffs. Pre tariffs $100-$200. Was buying them on AliBaba but with tariffs Amazon is about the same price.
I have 5 of the BearSwift 5-25x56 and 1 each of the other 2. Have a couple Vector Optics Hugo SFP 5-25x50. They are good but the CVLife are better. Hugo on sale at AliExpress for $90.

Oh yeah? What are you in the market for? What kind of caller are you using?Today, checking on gear to get after some coyotes tomorrow night
Woodpecker sounds have been working for me a lot.
So has Tony Tebbe’s “black jack”… it’s a bunch of guys rabbit mixed with crow and raven. The sage jackals love it.
Throw in a lone female howl if nothing else is working.

Have you tried Athlon?

It’s a struggle. The Zulus has to be way better than this thing. Find it nearly impossible to get brightness/contrast/saturation satisfactory. Even put them all to 50 which I was told is auto. Point at leaves on ground massively bright. Point at a tree, beautiful and perfect. Point up into the trees with sky as background tree tops super dark. Trying but regular glass is so much superior to this thing for daytime. I guess field hunting would be ok. Woods where there is all kinds of different lighting is a struggle.

The struggle is real. I’ve never tried that model but I tried using a Triton Starstrike back in the spring and had many similar issues.
The Zulus is amazing, especially for its price, in my opinion. I’m just using a basic non LFR 5-20 and it has never failed me and I use it hard. I hunt day and night every single week unless something major comes up haha. At long range the screen does get a little washed out but it’s never prevented me from taking a squirrel out to 135-140y in the glare of the Utah desert.
Is it better than good glass? Nope. But it’s very versatile, easy to use and solidly built.
I don’t need to see the fleas on a coyote at 150y when I shoot him so the convenience of not having to switch scopes is worth it to me.
I'm sorry, I meant (checking on gear) is to make sure it's ready to go as for my caller , it's a FoxPro CS-24-C and for now I'm using_ female lone howl and rabbit in destress. Thank you Cantona256: for the info.

Of course bro… if your caller can use Bluetooth it’s worth investing in a few of those Tony Tebbe sounds if you haven’t before. I get owls diving towards the call at night when I play some of his sounds
I just use FoxPro and MFK sounds and I have a IcoTec gc 300. Believe it or not it is still effective. I am one of the few that hunt coyote in my area and I hunt on my posted land

I 100% believe it… I’m just using an Icotec 320+ that I added a decoy to. I only use Bluetooth if the stock sounds aren’t working. But I’ve called more in the past 3 weeks then most of the guys I know have called in all year. It doesn’t need to be fancy at all.
Good luck out there! I can’t wait to see some pics!
