after cleaning all the snow, yes snow, off my truck, we stopped on the way to mom's and picked up a benjamin 397 for the bargain price of $50.
(see my post in the bargain gate)

i've seen your pictures tom, if anyone understands snow, it's you!


i feel embarrassed to gripe about a mere 6" when everyone "up nort" deals with so much more.


so, i promise this summer not to complain about the heat or worse...mosquitoes.

Lightened the pull on a 2260 trigger assembly.

It's not a target trigger by any means but compressing the trigger return spring in a pair of tongue and groove pliers makes a huge difference.
It may not be a super crisp precise break, but a lighter trigger pull goes s long way.
People are going to recommend getting a one of those adjustable triggers or getting the aftermarket trigger group, but I honestly don't care enough.
The pull was easy to lighten, and I'm perfectly happy with it as is.

As long as it works for you I cant argue.

I removed the original suppressor from my Stormrider Gen 2 and installed a TKO that I had from a Discovery .22.
Then I went to the farm and checked the accuracy.  I had a nice nickel size group at about 30 yards (35 paces) after adjusting the scope.
(I dry fired the rifle without any suppressor.  WOW, that rifle was   L O U D !)

Once I get the gun built I'll decide for sure, but it seems good enough on current impressions.
I've found that for plinking the pull weight is the biggest concern for me, if a trigger is pretty great or I can easily make it great I will but I'm fine with just okay or good enough.

Started to make a pump aid for my hand pump...

Has me wondering what exactly a 'pump aid' is!

Using mechanical leverage to make pumping easier.  I twisted the base on mine, esp when starts getting past 2000 PSI. So this will also keeps everything lined up. So should make the pump last longer. I made slight changes to the way it mounts to the pump. So now clamps to the handle. Allowing the pump to pivot a bit. But I still need to get a new base for it. I thought attaching the weight would make it stay put, so I wouldn't have to put my foot down. But it doesn't and doesn't give much area to put my foot down..

Just finished wrapping the armada in vinyl gun skin. Its not perfect but I'm happy with the way it turned out.

Bright sunny day, bit of a variable wind, but wanted to see what a 45yrd zero on my SWFA scope would be. 
Starting a datalog book to keep track of all my settings with different pellets.
