New Contest Starting Now! This Target Haunts Me
Tell us about the one that got away, the flier that ruined your group, the zero that drifted, the shot you still see when you close your eyes. Winner will receive a free scope!
I'd say .177 and .22 are still much more common than the higher calibers. The cost of pellets, pellet availability, pellet variety, and air efficiency all strongly favor .177 and .22. Most airgun shooters shoot airguns to plink quietly in their backyards and .25 cal is a bit overkill for that...
It is funny you mentioned the Delta Stryker. I paid the import fee for one before I even bought my March scopes. The scope I received had a very noticeable artifact on the reticle so I sent it back. Fair or not, it made me lose taste in the brand.
Actually, I have a March 2.5-25x42 and 1-10x24 (both SFP). I like both scopes very much which is why I'm leaning so hard towards the two higher mag March scopes. The 25x mag can do the job, but at 200 yards, little .22 cal sized holes sometimes get lost.
I can see why 34mm adjustable rings aren't widely available. It seems like a pretty rare problem that I've come across. Not many Airgun shooters x Not many who shoot to 200 yards x not many who use 34mm scope = not worth making.
Anyone know of a lightweight option for 34mm adjustable rings? I know of the Burris XTR and will try them in a pinch, but they are made of steel and are HEAVY.
Background for why I ask:
I'm looking to add a 34mm scope to the picatinny rail of an air rifle and shoot up to 200 yards. I suspect...
I'm thinking of purchasing one of these, but would like to see a pic of where the light is leaking in. Hopefully fixing it is only a matter of tightenin down a couple screws. Does this occur all the time or when shooting with the sun at a particular angle?
I'm thinking I would appreciate the finer adjustment as well. The precision that air rifles are capable of is pretty astounding to me. I can defininely see how in other shooting disciplines the extra turning would be a drawback, though.
Buying a few scopes and choosing my favorite has crossed my mind. I'm shooting paper almost exclusively. The gun is an air rifle shooting both pellets and slugs. Ranges with this scope from 25 to 200 yards.
