Happy days bud , glad to have helped out . -
Thanks , been looking and there's only a few quid between the two , see if my local shop will do a price match . ATB

With both these rifles barrel twist is the question , faster the twist = heavier the bullets , the older model like I have is 1/14 so very much 55g is it but a super round never the less . Cheers

Thanks for the offers , I had my previous scope on these mounts the difference is the other scope was a 50 objective this is a 44 so smaller and perhaps not so much internal elevation . Could do with a 20 moa rail but it would not work with the mag feed so I was thinking adjustable mounts or rings with inserts , abit p***ed of really wanted a scope with half mil hash lines and cant get on target lol .

best logun axsor reg? fac
Outback 1 replied to riflehunter583's topic in Rifle Reviews, Technical Help and Tips
Huma are very good regs they are well know in the USA , When I was looking at regs I would have bought a Lane but couldn't get his site to work and no answer to mails . When fitting regs you might find the rest of the air flow system may need altering and the barrel length comes into the equation as well for the power and pellet weight . You need to think of what fpe you would like to achieve and then is it to much for the pellet weight . When I converted my second one I research a lot in the States and found that both the .22 and the .25 shared the same air tube and air volume and -

I have fitted two Huma regulators , both work perfectly when you learn how to set up the rifle to your required power . Cheers -

Nite site viper or photon xt 6.5x50
Outback 1 replied to Marctitty's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
Iv'e had both photons 4.6 & 6.5 with good illumination the 6.5 will do 200 yds , check out how small your target looks at that range through a night sight , When I buy again it would be a front mounted unit (DFA 750 ) or a rear mount Ward unit I think you would gain from having good quality scope , some thing with a screen no . -
Good shite .

Good effort there and good looking permission . ATB

.25 Air Rifle Power FAC recommendations.
Outback 1 replied to dixyhmr's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
I read a lot of American Air rifle tuning web sites , the general line of thought for air rifle pcp power pellet weight ratio for an air efficient rifle is twice the pellet weight in .25 cal i.e 25grn x 2 = 50 fpe . I run a .22 using 21.14 grn at 40 fpe 920 fps , so a .25 cal to be air efficient would be in the 49 /50 fpe . after that if your not worried about shot count go 30 + grn and push up the power to 900 to 960 fps . ATB -
Looking good there , I dropped on of my t20 its the same make as yours , if you want to put the postage on it as spare and sort it out . ATB

Philpot You can use them as day sights as well , Delswal you could always go the anonymous route nobody will know you had an air rifle . keep the good scope and rings though . NATIONAL FIREARMS SURRENDER: 13 – 26 NOVEMBER 2017

Hi Rowan , Clashmore turn right towards bona bridge Skebo estate , go down to the Mound turn right Morvich I think owned by a French guy . Al Fyeed ( Harrods) at Delny by Invergordon . Novar estate at Evanton . There are estates out towards Lairg at Rosehall ask at Invercassely Hotel turn right before river bridge . You should find some were in the Golspie Dornoch area if you go north its mainly deer . Good luck . -
Get your self the figure of 8 clamp from clive ward and mount it on the tube at the top it makes the weight better to not one sided . Cheers

I found it better to mount the T20 on the top of the photon clive ward does a figure of 8 clamp that's ok . When I was zeroing at 50 yds I was shimming the rear mount you may be ok on your zero distance . Philpot for what your looking for the 6.5 is the one for your requirements . Cheers

Were you like the tree man -
Keep a look on the Stalking Directory there is a full set up 6.5 Photon and a Ward set up has just gone . The .25 with a 65 yd zero would be very interesting about 2 Mil at a 100 yds ,

You don't say how your covering your ground Phil , Could you sit in a hid / vehicle this would give you a stable platform to shoot from , If you go this this method you could put small markers to help with the ranging and also put you in a position to work with wind direction so with zero wind influence it would be one less thing to worry about . I shot a lot with a 6.5 Photon this went between three rifles so may be you will have to concider setting up a rifle for night shooting there are complete kits being sold for £300 one now on the Stalking forum as people move on . Or there are sc

Aaaah the word tinkering . Cheers -
Hi Phil I have a 22.250 and have used it as a pest control gun , the barrel burning comes from 40 grn bullets at 4000 fps for getting the Red Mist effect on small quarry , Used with 55 grn bullets at 3500 fps ish a great long range vermin rifle , targets out to 500 yds in comps very do able . and small deer . Every rabbit you clip at ranges you can head shoot will be head less and them body shot if having to clear them will be ruined . the bullet weight and velocity on small framed game is only going to end one way . The .22 of a bipod is a better option or a 25 cal pcp set up p
