thread 3(?)



no pasta this time, i didn't save it

also, the daisy 880 i picked up is straight as a fuckin arrow. no bounce back with pointed pellets and a solid wood target. grouping minute of squirrel at about 15ish yards, i took a couple potshots at the smaller diamonds on my target and still landed just about where i was aiming at closer to 30 yards. this will be fun for can obliteration and small game

Bought an Impact Max Elite from Walmart for $150 bucks and ran through about 5000 pellets of various brands. Fantastic for plinking and varmint control

nice. those walmart air guns are pretty good, they have a lot of great brands to pick from. none of the fancy stuff, but a lot of gamo and good-tier crosman

don't want a $1800 Steyr Evo, but I do want a quality non-CO2 10m match pistol. What get for 700 bucks or less?

for example, looks like used MatchGuns are like 800

Does PCP really offer that much of an advantage over single stroke pneumatic for that purpose? You can buy an Air Venturi AV-46M for under $700, which is a clone of the Russian IZH-46M (pic related) since those got blocked by sanction almost a decade ago.

when will we get mag-fed, co2 pistols that run pellets at enough fpe to be used for hunting? idc if it gets 25 shots for 12g canister, the speed would make up for that and co2 with pellets is still dirt cheap compared to actual rounds

I got my crossman vantage in 22 sighted in yesterday. Can't wait for squirrel season. Actually downgrading from 22lr. How many of you have done this and had success?

pumping ruins my 10m concentration 'flow' idk. I'll look into the 46m, thanks. As long as Rink makes a grip for it I'll be happy

Yep, that's the magic of pellets. Soft lead flattens or goes into wood and sticks. BBs bounce like hell since they're so absolutely rock hard.

crosman 1377 was bouncing like crazy at close range. probably because of round nose pellets

is it normal for the barrel on a 13xx pistol to wiggle, or is mine fucked

Find someone who ripped up some old office carpets or whatever and cut up disks of it. Stack it in a bucket. Turn bucket on side. Perfect target. Turn up right and put lid on. Doesn't even have to be brought in when it rains. Warning that whatever the backing of carpet is made of turns to dust and gets messy when you dick with it (aka: shoot it).



Wiggle how? I have a steel breech kit so I can't say for sure but it's pretty solid.

>Wiggle how?

literally just wiggles at the end where it meets the front sight post. moves about .010" in any direction you push it. i can't imagine that's great for accuracy

My 1377 doesn't do that; that's all I can really say.

Also IIRC the barrel is fixed in the "breech" by a single screw. Been a long time since I had a stock plastic breech though.

What are you looking to hunt? There bolt action CO2 powered pistols similar to the Crosman 2240 can use magazines.

superglued it. wiggle be gone. simple as
