    Thinking of replacing mid-grade ammo 22lr shooting at 50Y with PCP

    I think my next purchase will be a Daystate Delta Wolf. That gun is amazing. It has a built in chronograph at the end of the barrel. You can just type the speed you want, and the electronic does the rest.

    Vudoo is almost ready

    Have you shot it before bedding the gun? I'd be interested to know if there's any accuracy difference before and after.

    Thinking of replacing mid-grade ammo 22lr shooting at 50Y with PCP

    A typical FX rifle costs between $1000 and $2000. Then you add a compressor and a tank to fill the gun for another $1000. After that you buy good pellets that can shoot in the 0.3s at 50Y ($15/500 pellets).

    I think you have even deeper pockets if you're still shooting 22lr :)

    Thinking of replacing mid-grade ammo 22lr shooting at 50Y with PCP

    I bough my FX Dreamline Tac from Utah Airguns. Had I seen your recommendation, I would have probably give Ken a call. Having said that, I'm pretty happy with Utah Airguns. They installed a power plenum on the rifle (wasn't specified on the order nor their site) and did do a function/chrono test...

    Thinking of replacing mid-grade ammo 22lr shooting at 50Y with PCP

    This airgun thing is getting ridiculous. I basically stopped shooting all powder burning rounds since I got into airguns. Last week my compressor died after a few months of use and I’m waiting for the customer service to fix it in the next 3 weeks. Meanwhile I’ve purchased a hand pump and I’m...

    A rifle everyone needs

    I don't think the price is unreasonable. A high end gun like this will set you back $4500 Add another $3500 for that scope and mount. Then add another $1000 for accessories Then add the ammo You're already in the asking price zone. But all this is a mute point as the rifle is currently out...

    Thinking of replacing mid-grade ammo 22lr shooting at 50Y with PCP

    Shot the FX at 50Y outdoor. I also took my Anschutz 1710 HB to compare against the FX. The Anschutz is a proven shooter and can do in the mid 0.2s with Center X on a calm day. The FX shoots better outdoor with the heavier 18.1 gr on max power (indoor it didn’t shoot any better than the lighter...

    POTUS Twitter account suspended but Iran’s leader has his Twitter

    Still need to get my head wrapped around the fact that Iran’s leader is allowed to have a Twitter account, but the president of the USA is not. https://twitter.com/khamenei_ir https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump

    Not sure to follow. Are you happy or not with your decision? This post suggests you have some regrets. But your latest post indicates otherwise.

    Thinking of replacing mid-grade ammo 22lr shooting at 50Y with PCP

    Mission accomplished! The gun is shooting in the 0.3s at 50Y. This is indoor and yes there is a noticeable airflow. Also, as you can see, my shooting position is not very stable with no rear rest. That explains the vertical strings. With this setup I simply can’t group better than this with...

    Thinking of replacing mid-grade ammo 22lr shooting at 50Y with PCP

    From factory it's tuned for JSB 18.1gr at 900 fps. I just shot these 5 shot groups at 30Y with JSB 15.89 gr at 880fps. I'm very impressed. I'm using a mid-size Caldwell shooting bag bag with no proper rear rest. With that setup I can't shoot any better than this. I think this is one of the very...

    Thinking of replacing mid-grade ammo 22lr shooting at 50Y with PCP

    I can get decent accuracy with the BSA. I've settled on the HN Baracuda 4.52 in 10.65 grain. At 40Y it's a consistent 0.5", but at 50Y it opens up to 0.75". My initial mistake was that I had lowered the regulator to 110 bar to get more shots, but the accuracy is better with 130 bar. I don't...

    Anschutz 64s

    That rifle is a 64 SBR and is magazine fed. It has very nice trigger that can be set at just at a few OZs. It will likely be very accurate (more accurate than a Tikka) at 50 and 100Y. $850 is a good price.

    Anschutz 64

    I have no personal experience with the 1716. It is replacing the 64 action model though. If you do a quick search on rimfirecentral, you'll find a lot of good info.

    Anschutz 64

    The 64 action isn't as solid and refined as the 54. But the practical accuracy of 64 will be similar to a 54 action. The benefit of the 64 action is that you can buy it with the very nice 5098 trigger and is superior to the triggers offered on the 54 sporter rifles. I have posted some targets on...

    Is There a Real Sub-MOA .22 Rifle?

    All my 22lr guns are sub moa, at least up to 50 yards with mid-grade ammo. No exceptions. If not, I either work on it, or sell it by disclosing the issue. I had a new Savage Mark2 G I bough for $200. Didn't shoot well. I send it to a gunsmith to get an accuracy package ($250 I think), and it...
