Thanks for verifying. Kind of what I figured.

I picked up a 499B over the summer for fun. I set up a 5M range in the house getting ready for the time change next weekend. I haven’t shot the rifle a ton but have been shooting it. I am curious how often, if at all, the barrel needs to be cleaned. I cleaned it after I got it for good measure. Sinc...

I have a nice CF tank but would get this had it been available back then. https://gxpumpofficial.com/collections/gx-pump/products/gx-e-cs2-pcp-air-compressor It will fill that pistol in under a minute and you won’t have to screw with going to get your tank filled.

The USA competes in 10M pistol. Without looking it up I believe we earned spots for the 2024 Olympics. If you did not see any USA shooters in the 2024 Olympics on TV it’s because none of them made the top 8 in qualifications so they did not move into finals (medal round). They only showed finals on ...

Since you are shooting in your home I assume 10M air pistol. Is there really an issue with lead contamination when shooting an air pistol? That’s a question for the general audience. I would not be concerned myself. If it was a powder burner with a primer I would be more concerned.

As far as a pellet trap you can get one of those Champion .22lr bullet traps or just make one. To make your range semi modern get a Wyze camera of Amazon for about $30. Get it up close to your target and sync it up to your iPad on your shooting stand. That will give you a real time view of you shot....

I think all the publicity from the Olympics that 10M pistol recieved caught the industry off guard.

My opinion about this, I do not want to break it in. Have a pair of Gehman trousers for more than a year, using them daily, that have yet to be folded and just stand them vertically in the corner when not using them. As far as coats go, shoot with it, and it will naturally conform to your needs, tr...

Grippy makes a good point. Didn’t think about that.

To my knowledge just the color scheme. I have the regular Expert with walnut stocks. It’s I nice pistol. I have a friend with the Blue Angel Expert, and even though I like the traditional look, his is pretty awesome looking. Given a choice I would buy the Blue Angel if price was similar.

Do you want it for 10M air rifle or just a PCP to shoot? If it’s for 10M air rifle just keep watching this site for a good used one to come up in your budget. A new one will be north of $1500. If it’s for shooting in general then there are a lot of options for $1000 or less new.

I bought Ways of the Rifle a few years ago from Champions Choice or Creedemore. If they are coming out with a new version that may explain why it’s out of circulation. A new version is probably a good thing if it brings it up to the standards of their air rifle or pistol book with updated info, colo...

Nothing wrong with that. I am 53 and that pretty muck looks like my groups most of the time,

No doubt there are some cheap, crappy compressors but some are pretty decent. Just don’t fill tanks with them. They will have no problem filling your pistol air cylinder directly one minute at a time. You are correct though if you plan to fill tanks you need a good compressor which means big dollars...

I wouldn’t bother getting a tank. Especially for a pistol. Get a small compressor and just fill the gun with it. Look at a GX CS2. It would be perfect for a pistol. I bought the battery version of it recently (GX E-L2) to use on the road instead of hauling around a tank. It has pretty well convinced...

I would add the two CMP locations in Aniston, Al and Camp Perry in OH.

Old post but just came across it. My biggest complaint as a parent/spectator is very cramped and limited area to watch the match. Second, and a very close second is lack of A/C. My daughter shot on the Granbury HS team and now shoots in college. I have to say that at Granbury HS there was plenty of ...

Contact Neal Stepp as ISS Shooting in Fort Worth.

His agent has cut several lenses for me.

Cheers,

Dave

Neal Stepp is a wizard when it comes to lenses. He has made a couple for me. He can even take you old set of glasses and have lenses made, not just monocle lenses.
