What'cha doing air gun related today?

Those strings don't look right. Avenger and Avenge X regs are usually very good performers. Personally, I'd take some 1000-2000 grit sandpaper to the bellville washers and replace the orings. Worry about your settings after you get rid of that creeping.

Ok, haven't done that yet on any regulator but I have some metal to metal paste. I didn't buy an special paste. O-ring lube as well. And I have a Nova liberty that needs regulator work.

You don't need special anything. Use 2000 grit 3M automotive sandpaper if you are worried about doing too much, because then you won't. Use the same silicone oil you use for all your other orings on your regs orings too, it works fine.

Sitting here in Sweden thinking about the new gun that was delivered at home today. Oddly have not found anything airgun related near where I am at. Well meetings all week so no time for play.

Had a bunch of folk over today to help eat some leftover burgers and dogs from cookout/picnic yesterday. The secondary purpose was to corrupt, I mean introduce, some to the seductive wiles of airguns. So... I pulled out the best airguns I know, a bunch of pumpers, and let them experience. The seed of air need has been sown, and I look forward to watching it grow and produce fruit.

The Air Venturi Ascent was a major player in this, and has won over at least one as he had lots of fun freehand shooting it at targets and seeing success. That was with the pack-in scope still on it. Now it's time to wipe my leading ladies down and tuck them in for the night, and put my pinty 6-24x50 ffp scope on the Ascent to continue her work tomorrow.

For those in the states, may you have a blessed day of rest from your labors tomorrow.

Put the .177 barrel in the EscapeSS with a one size smaller top hat on the valve so I can test heavy slugs, hopefully tomorrow. Put the .20 barrel in the Talon.

Put my Pinty 6-24x50 ffp scope on the Ascent. Scope and rings is just over 2 lbs... with scope and moderator the gun is now weighing in at just under 11lbs. Take it later to sight in and test.
