Bought an American Air Arms Evol mini 22. The most expensive rifle I own is now officially a pellet gun lol. Plenty of JSB diabolo jumbos in stock though! Look at these chrono numbers and the test target they sent.

I was wondering what it would do at 1000 yds.Wow 20 whole yards? It most have a monster scope on it…….
It’s got the latest Hawke, 1” tubeeven got the big side wheel lol. Yeah yeah I know 20 yards, but I can’t touch that group with my R9 springer. I actually ended up putting my old SWFA SS 3-15 on it. Focuses down to 6 meters so I thought it would be appropriate. I did swap the stock out for a Magpul STR with just a little longer LOP and the grip for a b5, which is a little more vertical. I will post pics a little while later.Wow 20 whole yards? It most have a monster scope on it…….

This is one of them tacops pellet guns.Where's the cold bore flier?
PSI or Atmospheres lol.MOA or Metric ,,,,,,,
So this is an interesting point. I’ve never handled one but the voodoo is super nice. I have several nice rimfire, but not that nice. They’ll do though.For that kind of coin coulda had a vudoo
I fill my pcp with a high pressure scuba tank works great.Any thoughts to how you are going to charge it? Did you buy a compressor too?
I'm not seeing the ubiquitous paddle so I believe it's air . Effin Wow .
This works if you have scuba shops around that will fill themI fill my pcp with a high pressure scuba tank works great.
Bought a compressor, hand pump, large and small carbon fiber tank.Any thoughts to how you are going to charge it? Did you buy a compressor too?
Wow that’s cool! Who makes that?
that is an Edgun Leshiy 2 (made in russia).Wow that’s cool! Who makes that?
You did my Magpul bipod 45* mod?
Was that yours?!?!! I remember reading a post on here about doing it not long after the Magpul came out. It’s been a long time ago but it was sure the inspiration for my trying.You did my Magpul bipod 45* mod?
On which caliber?I get good groups out to 200 yards with slugs and are able to hit my steel pretty easily at 400
That’s cool I’ve got an Evol 30 on the way.The 357 Slayer and the 30 cal Evol.
View attachment 7715442I really like the American Air Arms guns. Here is my collection, minus one new one I just got. They are awesome shooters and built better than any other airguns.
Only things I don't like is the POI can shift with them and they can be a little fragile with all of the parts that are in them.
Hey you woodchucks! Quit chuckin’ my wood! Pffft-thud.Ok I’ll play, my first pc airfifle Gamo Urban 22
It’s surprisingly accurate, and loves killing chucksView attachment 7715830View attachment 7715831
My method was much less sophisticatedWas that yours?!?!! I remember reading a post on here about doing it not long after the Magpul came out. It’s been a long time ago but it was sure the inspiration for my trying.
How did you do yours? I did mine in a mill with a DRO. I used and edge finder to locate the center of the leg eye and then went the same distance from there at a 45 degree angle that the factory cut at a 90. I just used an end mill with the same radius as the factory notch. Link your post if you can. I have several more to do. If I like your method better I may use it instead. Thanks for the inspiration.
if thats "high dollar"....youd piss yourself if you found out what i paid for my Anschuts 9015....Fuck me that shit is high dollar, God damn spare magazine is $98. Pellets are priced about where .22lr should be.
Interesting, how and why on the POI shift, random? Not trying to thread drift too much just curious.
Yep what Drumie said. Few airguns are built sturdy so POI shifts are a common problem. It's just the mind set of the airgun community that are more so hunters and want lightweight guns, plus most are simply not going to spend a bunch of money on a airgun, therefore that's what the manufacturers cater to. Some Co's are building more sturdy platforms nowadays like AAA for one. The old MAC1 USFT is way over built and a super simple design so it's very rugged as far as airguns go, well except for the thin barrel. It does have a thicker receiver than most firearms though and a free floated match barrel. I have a Thomas HPX that is very solidly built as well.Interesting, how and why on the POI shift, random?

I think it is the thin barrel liner in the Impact. That and along with the way the barrel is held into the gun. I used carbon fiber tubes to stiffen up the barrel and that helped a lot. FX now offers those to help increase accuracy.
The American Air Arms guns have tenson barrels in them. I can unscrew the barrel and put it back on and the POI doesn't change a noticeable amount.

There is huge difference at farther distances with an airgun using slugs vs using pellets! BUT you must have the proper barrel, twist, etc, to accomidate slugs or you won't have a satisfactory experience. Slugs are cast lead bullets or swaged lead bullets. Though slugs are generally going slower than 22rf, and usually have a lower BC than 22rf, they can do quite well pretty far out. Except for wind drift, because of the low BC/.072, 25 cal, 29gr slugs, that I use, these still put in groups equal to my expensive 22rf with match ammo in low winds at 200Y. It's cool because I can shoot these on my property and in the FS bordering my property legally.
I actually out shot my friend at 300Y a couple weeks ago with my Uragan King PCP vs his Anschutz 22rf with match ammo. Part of that is the low ES that airguns can have, mine does around 10 fps ES.
