    22 cal Slug/lead bullet BC's

    I actually know Tom. It's weird because he's a very nice guy and easy to get a long with but CS is pretty bad and I don't understand the disconnect going on????? That was his best move getting in with AOA because he has to be at least a little accountable to Robert. Yes I feel sorry for those...

    22 cal Slug/lead bullet BC's

    It wouldn't be as fun without the doggies, right?! I haven't tried that scope. Honestly I've just been buying Athlon's lately because they are such a good value per quality and I get a good price on them. That being said I'd like to try every nice scope out there, wouldn't we all, right?! ;)

    22 cal Slug/lead bullet BC's

    My Western Mordax "Venom", which is a important model distinction from the standard Mordax, has a 300cc bottle on it instead of the tube so it gets a lot more shots per fill. How much I won't know until next week because the testing of it is something I'm reserving until then. You know how it is...

    22 cal Slug/lead bullet BC's

    I didn't have the best experience with the 30 cal EVOL either. I'm not shooting my Mordax Venom till late next week on my camping trip so we'll find out then. Hopefully the Submoa barrel in it performs. I got it from Tom that his new barrel honer is working well. Fingers crossed. My Steyr...

    The Olympic match pcp rifles and pistols I've owned, even more so my Thomas air rifles, have superior feeling triggers to the Tiapan but it's apples vs oranges since they are/relatively were back then, three times the price of Taipan. I never could get over the "cock the Vet behind the ear...

    22 cal Slug/lead bullet BC's

    Same here. Even though a friend of mine got so old he quit shooting, thus selling me cases of match 22rf for 40% of todays prices, I hardly shoot the rimfires. It's like a 1-5 ratio if comparing to the airguns. My Skout EVO is kinda like your Western. Man what a cluster of problems but that...

    22 cal Slug/lead bullet BC's

    Yep I know what you mean because it's easy to just grab the 22rf's we already have and go for it. A downside that got me with 22rf not but a few years back was how expensive the higher quality 22rf ammo became, the availability, the lot testing then hoping that lot was still in stock, and a...

    22 cal Slug/lead bullet BC's

    This is why I've gone to slugs for my more powerful pcp's, specifically the Altaros slugs, for the longer distance shooting and competitions. Way back many years ago here on SH I learned about environmentals and have been applying that knowledge to airguns ever since. . I can't help but...

    Which Heavy Duty Truck?

    I was going back reading the posts and thought I'd update. No problems with my 23 F250 since the high pressure fuel valve. Honestly this truck is awesome otherwise and has less than 9000 miles right now because I drive it only once a week much of the time. Leaving for 10 days with the 5th...

    Best Sub $750 optic for target and varmint - 2025

    Glad to know you like it. Mine ended up on my 17hmr however I don't shoot it much, but it's a good fit for how I use the rifle. Could put a different scope on it except I can't think what would be better. I like it on there and would rather not be switching scopes around. For my next rifle I...

    The next dip I think I'll buy DIA crypto also which is another company having great utility and potential. I messed up not buying it when the Economic Ninja said it would go way up and it's 3x since then.

    Stock Market

    Seems everything is up today so I wouldn't invest right now. August 1st is supposed to be a window when it's a decent time to buy because of the Tarrifs scare. Trump is tricky though and sometimes changes dates. Basically wait for the next dip which is what I've been doing. Growth yes, because...

    20GT

    Hmm, I wonder if I had a barrel that had soft steel or who knows what.

    20GT

    I wouldn't do it because I had a 20x47L and those 55's were blowing up not 300 rounds later. These were going 3830fps in a 9 twist. Fortunately 40gr vmax at 4100 worked fine though. I still have my 20x47 reamer and custom dies with 100 loaded rounds if someone wanted to buy them. 20 Dasher...

    AGT Uragan 3 video

    I had two 1st generation Uragan's and both were decent lacking any problems. Didn't have a 2nd generation. Do have a AGT Vulcan 3 and it is superbly reliable as well as precise.

    Oh XRP went to $3.55 a couple hours ago but of course went back down a ways. I think that's a record so far this year.

    Stock Market

    Darn well that's how it goes sometimes. Heck I invested a bunch of money in a new business venture around that time, an improved product over the competition, and lost it all, so don't feel bad. There really is a club of higher up buyers for huge corporations that are in with certain companies...

    I'm a late starter. Do you still have some XRP left, parents too, if so congrats?! Yeah ole Trump is right when he recently said all he has to do is say things and that affects the markets. Those tariff's scareiff's freaked the world out thus dropping the price of XRP and a bunch of others...
