Re: Draft Notes on Working with O-rings for Air Guns

Greetings All,

"Two snaps and a twist" for Gwhite.

A very detailed document that will come to the aid of many Air Pistol shooters.

This sort endeavor is what I enjoy about shooting. The willingness to help others without expectation of reward.

Re: Resurrecting dated premium ammo

Greetings,

Try Pure Lanolin or Lee Liquid Alox.

Wet your fingers and spin the bullet to recoat.

I did this a while back. Yes, time consuming; but, better than tossing the ammo in the trash.

Use it for Training.

Cheers,

They "look" the same; but, I suspect not interchangeable.

Re: WTF is THIS ???

A rather high end pistol for the average "Cowboy/Plinker".

Perhaps training for the Running Target event, if it still exists.

Re: Eley Target 22LR Ammo Problems

Greetings, Take a box and weigh each cartridge. There is somewhere near 2.0 grains of powder, if I recall. Then take the "light" ones and test fire them. Perhaps a call to the Eley distributor and ask about replacement? Or, you could do like Western Cartridge did in the 1960's with a bad l...

Re: How to break into Olympic competitive pistol shooting

Greetings, Buy a used Air Pistol. The type that has a lever to compress the air. Feinwerkbau 65 comes to mind. There are also offering from Pardini. Even a Baikal IZH-46. Avoid the ones that require charging with SCUBA or CO2 tanks for now. Then buy some quality pellets and start shooting. It's only...

Re: Is the Hammerli 150 a difficult pistol?

Greetings,

Buy the 150 at the "very good price".

Try it out for several months.

If you do not like it, sell it for a "very good price".

Sort of like leasing a car before you buy it.

The advantage of buying used, well cared for, equipment.

Greetings, Since the tank will be static, no diving and carrying it around, consider a 100 CFT tank. They can be filled to 3300 PSI and you will get a lot of fillings.
