What'cha doing air gun related today?

[RobbieGio]

For shooting my slingshot through the house I have just enough space for ten meters. Standing in the living room the shot goes through the kitchen, hallway, laundry room and back room to the back wall.

Very nice there, sir! I liken it to a mini version of RMAC. Use furniture, countertops, family, pets as the support and
barricades.

It’s been weeks in the process, limited time available, but I have my Bullshark 177 and P35 25 cal running and holding air.
The 25 cal I installed a Huma internal plenum and gained 12 fps. I’ll see this week what the shot count is like.

Found my Avenger empty (it's been untouched in the safe for a few months). I got it to 1k, but took longer than it should and seemed to stall there. I verified degass screw was tight and then left it for other duties. Instead of shooting it, I guess I will be tearing it down and learning repair.

Later in the evening had a nice long chat with a fella about airguns. He is looking at picking one up for deer hunting, and may have access to "old" scba bottles to up my air supply game... But, let him borrow my Texan here soon and see what he thinks.

I've been in Kansas the last few days at the Daughters farm. Did some shooting with the grandkids 760 and 1000. I didn't bring any of my guns this trip but wish I would have. They just had a new house set, so I didn't take pictures yet because the place looks kinda of dumpy till the front yard is releveled, and the farm fields are not the best, Alot of clay in spots. Going home today. Oh what I wanted to mention was how far I was able to shoot open sight with that darn little 760. I was shooting soda cans off a fence post at 120 feet consistently. After about a hour the 8 year old finally knocked a can off. She was so proud, she ran as fast as she could to the house to tell he mom and Grandma.
I almost cried ...lol

I love this. These are the moments that help spread the joy of airgunning.

 

[Soren Drost]

At my private range filming some shooting with my Daystate BlackWolf TAC .177 HP with slugs at 150 meters or 164 yards

 

[Florida_Man]

Zeroed my P35 and Bullshark. I do want to swap scopes on the Bullshark, from a 24x target scope to a Veyron 10x

 

[Florida_Man]

Swapped out the trigger guard on my Zelos.

I ordered a custom drop in unchoked .30 TJ barrel conversion kit for my Condor Slug gun that has the 3600 PSI tank. Bore is .294 the groove is .300 has a 1:26 twist 6 lands and a 15mm-1/2-inch outer diameter and I am very excited. I have wanted this for a couple of years but will still have a little wait for the final machining. The .22 slug barrel will move over to the Escape UL to make room for the .30 on the Condor.

 

[Florida_Man]

I shot about 30 25gr KO slugs with my Zelos. The first 6 were to season the barrel after a cleaning. It’s ready to go.
Some shoot slugs for long range use, I use them for expansion. Next to VK slugs, the KO’s are one of the best I’ve tested.
Zelos with 46 fpe KO’s is ready for the large pests that occasionally present.

 

[PapaT]

Did some shooting/testing of my 362 100th Anniversary from a rest. Peep sight helps highlight that I need to update my prescription.

 

[Hylander]

Mounted a new Vector Veyron 3-12x44 on my Zelos. Then proceeded to shoot a couple groups

 

[Danman]

Finally got out last night with the new HW50! First 'group' with it... usually I shoot paper for that. Been waaaay too long since I shot open sights clearly, lol. I painted these dots on the jug filled it with water and set up 15-20Y away....couldn't see the dots so I just held midway on the jug.
But a respectable first group, in the wind as it got dark, 11 pellets and 11 hits, offhand.
This is my first/Only HW and wow are they nice sights! Mine came set up with the thick v-notch and I switched it to the ball-on-a-post style that @Scriv mentioned he prefers. Will try it soon on a bench hopefull...

Looking to bag the red squirrel leaving black walnuts on my back porch. The Pathfinder is at the ready… TBD…

Very nice. I'm excited for mine to ship.

Changed regulators on my Evanix .30 Sniper X2 from Cricket with no plenum to Max-ATH with 50cc plenum.
Was 866fps average and 23fps spread
Is 884fps and 2 fps spread.
Both regulators around 2500psi.

Plenum is nominally a bit small for a 600mm .30 barrel which is a 27cc volume. Optimal is 3x-4x barrel volume on a direct flow gun like AirForce. But the variables in a poppet valve gun make calculating max flow volume too difficult. So 50cc will just have to do.

I could use a 20cm 120cc tube, U-adapter and a 500cc or shorter bottle (shorter than current 700cc) but I'm out of 20cm tubes. Replaced the Max-ATH on my Condor with the tube and u adapter set up. Which freed the Max-ATH. Then I noticed the Cricket on the Sniper so it got reused.

Got some tubes, supposedly, coming from Alibaba but there have been issues with the vendor. Appears mostly to be translation but we shall see.

 

[Florida_Man]

Trial and error getting my Bullshark tuned for KO slugs. I still need to try a little higher reg setting.
An agama presented on a concrete block under my bird feeder. In 177 they run off and die from this shot. In 25 cal 32 fpe, it died where it fell.

 

[FL22]

Plinking with my Wolverine .177 at 50y today.

 

[Luis Leon]

The red squirrel won today, alas the work week. Will be on the lookout come the Christmas weekend… Looking to gift it a JSB Exact Jumbo 18…
