I feed the target rifles a diet of SV. SK+ or CCI SV, and for matches the 40X gets Lapua Midas+. Latest addition to *MY* stable( the 40X is my son's ) is an 1813 Super Match Anschutz. It is also fond...

Since primer ignition is so critical to consistency in terms of delivered velocity, it sure looks like more is better. At some point a light hit is going to be lighting the charge( and starting the...

Either a large one, or a field of great depth. I have used them with air rifles shooting pellets, and the 'whirr' from a flattened and tumbling ricochet can often be heard trailing off in the...

The Remington 40X is long since ancient history at the CMP. Win 52 bits OTOH... The barreled action is not so bad, but you'll need trigger, bolt and stock. Bolt is available as new production from...

From how well the holes are cut, well into super-sonic...1700 fps?

I *AM* going to make some of these this weekend. I'll be quite happy with anything near 960 fps. Mostly lead; just enough Tin to...

Well...not that I expected it to fit in a modified .25 magazine, but there is the 'NO' answer...:)

Ordered from FS Reloading last week, and finally get shipping notice a week later. Should have it...

and that is why I deal with pneumatics...:) they are quite effective at stuff up to Coyote and my .22 pellet shooter makes short work of red squirrels...:) the .25 does an even better job, and as...

It is a hot-rodded Benjamin Marauder. Started life as a 25 cal. It is running a TJ liner, 14" twist and .224/.219 groove/land usually run in centerfire work. It has a huge custom valve in it. These...

One thing to consider wid these wee boolits is the sprue cutter Lee supplies is for much bigger boolits; the hole is near gas check shank diameter. I got in on some 4140 sprue plates for these a...

But it does get the job done, and I am quite happy to be free of dealing with dive shops.

6 Pumps is a mild charge; likely around 550 fps for a stock rifle. At that range I have blasted clean through their noggins on 5 pumps though( sighted to 10m at that power, and nailing one off a tree...

IFF you want to run the pump count up a bit, both of those hit 20 FPE( 820 fps ) with JSB Exacts on 12 pumps...quite the cannon indeed.

I have a few Sheridans too. Let me suggest the full Mac1 Steroid treatment, including the extended billet pump arm. Even if you have *NO* intention of going over the OE recommended 8 pumps, the...

That is a big one...:) I acquired an RX2 in 5mm and it took some effort to cock. It soon started seeing 300-round afternoon sessions. When I am properly practiced holding it, it is accurate indeed,...

Where are you measuring the pellets? the head or the skirt?

Also, you will find that springers( either metal coil, or gas ram have a different power delivery wrt pellet weight than PCP's. Where...

The powder burner boolits are too big in diameter; pellet groove dia is .216-.217...not .224-5...

A 22 cal marauder should be able to push an 18 gr pellet up near 1000 fps with no mods...if you...

That makes perfect sense. I don't see an easy way to cure it though.

hey-Hey!!!,
I just got a 22596 and ran some low-tin/mostly lead boolits for my air rifle. Boolits *NEARLY* jumped out of the mold. I switched to a significantly harder alloy( the ingots ring, and I...

there is a serious shortage of good parts makers. hot-rod/modification parts is the only way I would do it. that is still a bit of change for tooling/machinery.

the only way to effectively regulate the air is to deliver two things simultaneously. One is have the reg upstream of a large enough plenum so the average pressure does not go too low during the...

That is the Real Deal....unlike my movie, 'The Real Deal', which was *NOT* the real deal...

Those older Match rifles are sweet. My lust is currently directed at a Diana 75. This is the hot-shooting, GISS System dual piston rig. They are amazing...just need to find one when funds are...

If only those things shot well. None of my 20 cal rifles like them, and it is a shame, as the ones I got in a red screw top tin weigh 16.1 grain...a significant weight advantage over the 13.7 JSB....

get 'em delivered elsewhere...bring several shooting, and one extry comes home.
cheers,
Douglas

The pre-charged are quite nice, though charging them is either a chore or requiring comparable cost to the rifle expense for the equipment. I sill have my fist Sheridan, and two more acquired since....
