      Sold my house

      S&W Model 29

      Not a paid endorsement; personal review. I always loved the Dirty Harry movie series & that beautiful S&W Model 29. I've had several over the years. I read many reviews on this one and decided to try it out. Oh boy, was I NOT disappointed. The bluing on this pistol is deep and shiny...

      Scope tinkering

      I was thinking about the 2022 National Match today and started looking thru gear. For fun I pulled my Cabela's Covanant5 5-25x56mm scope off my 243 and plopped it on the Beeman 100 because I noticed it had a 15yd side focus range. It has found a new home; makes shooting at match heads...

      Lets Play Another Game

      So, one of my old Army buddies and I were talking about shooting air rifles. He goes on a yarn about striking matches with a Sheridan .177 at 20ft as a kid. Being used to his stories, I laughed it off until he challenged me saying I couldn't do it with all the new fangled stuff. So this morning...

      Let's play a game

      I watched Airgunner TV on the Outdoor channel and watched those guys do some competitions, which looked like a lot of fun. All this SARS-CoV-2 has us doing the social distance and web meetings, lets take it to air guns. So here is the game: 10m distance use either .177 or .22 keep track of...

      Christmas Eve Long Range Rain Test

      Laying around avoiding putting a new gas tank on the ford 8N, I started recalling Christmas at my pawpaw's house and shooting my Daisy 1894 BB gun at some extreme distances. I still have that BB gun, its been rebuilt a few times and retired to the honor rack. I did however break out the Beeman...

      Easy Gong Target

      I picked up a gong target from an outdoor store from the discount bin and had some PVC laying around from a plumbing project. A little 550 paracord and I can ping the gong in the back yard. Less than $20 in the whole thing. Not recommended for BBs but pellets pretty much fall within a few feet...

      Anschutz 8002 modifications

      I've been shooting the Anschutz target sights for a few months. My eyes ain't what they used to be so I decided to mount a scope. As it turns out, the 8002 went out of production a few years ago. As a pawn shop find its fun and accurate, but I ain't spending a fortune on it. The front block was...

      A Father's Day Range Tribute

      My wife and I spent some time at the range today shooting a couple of family heirlooms. Her father's Ruger Mark II 22lr and my father's Ruger police six 357. We fired 38 special reloads in the 357 since full loads are regular hand punishers. She used to shoot with her dad in their back yard. I...

      A Trip Down Memory Lane

      Looking over the Henry Rifle selection I found they manufacture single barrel break open shotguns. I cut my teeth on an old H&R Topper in 28ga. then my dad traded that off as I got older for an even older 12ga. That thing was eventually replaced with a Winchester Ranger pump shotgun and that too...

      Tradewinds/Krico Project

      I traded into a Tradewinds K-608 chambered in 223. It was made by Krico in Germany and is a beautifully blued rifle with buttery smooth jeweled bolt with a metal box magazine. When I received it, it had incorrect scope mounts which were no where level and the plastic bolt dust cover was split...

      Barn Find...rather Pawnshop Find

      A couple of years ago I was in a pawnshop I frequent and this Anschutz 8002s was on the rack. I looked at it, came home, and did some research on it. Low and behold when I returned, it was gone. Oh well, I thought should have bought but anther one slips by. I recently was in there again and the...

      Crosman 2300 build

      This is not a paid endorsement, just my experience. Several years ago I ordered a 2300 from the Crosman custom shop. It was essentially a 2240 with some added features. I was very happy with it. In an effort to get all things air to .177 around here, I recently ordered some parts from Alchemy...

      Hatsan PCP review

      A few months ago I picked up a Hatsan Flash QE PCP .22cal. I have put this rifle through normal paces of shooting. I am surprised at its performance. It is an absolute hammer at over 900 FPS and exceedingly accurate. Magazine is a little wonky at first. It is almost backwards from the...

      Ruger No1 Accuracy Project

      Greetings, I started an accuracy project on a Ruger No1 in 7mm RM. I got it to shoot 1MOA but only using the 175gr bullets. Anything less was about 1.5-2. Thus far I completed a Jard trigger install to 2.4lbs from the 5.2ils factory trigger. Switched the rib for an EGW picatinney rail. Am...
