8 rifles, 3 shots from each at 30 meters. I’m going to keep doing it until I blow through the door. Then I’ll strip it and turn it into my usual target box and set this one at 60 meters. 

Is it a mini-fridge? I got a broken 9 CUFT chest freezer I was going to use for excess egg storage, but my wife joked that it might make a good pellet trap.

It’s a commercial undercounter cooler, like a mini-fridge, stainless steel. I hang a sheet of 3/4” plywood in front usually.

Wow that was a quick snow between pictures..  😜

Man I tried.  I’ve been working to better stabilize the soda straw barrel and shroud on my Crosman 2100.  I’m making progress and I’m encouraged that I’m on the right track.  Shooting 8gr Umarex hollow points, 8 pumps, I’m getting 1”  groups at twenty yards. I’ve got some ideas I want to try to improve the air sealing efficiency, further stabilize the action and beef up the pump arm.  The goal is 1/2” groups at twenty yards and anything north of 715 fps.  Today the wind was gusting from several directions and totally throwing me off.  But when the wind lies down it is showing some potential.

Carter, apologies for the delayed post on this but have an idea to stabilize the barrel on the 2100 (and similar). You could either do the "tape mod" requiring the removal of the shroud and wrapping tape around the actual barrel to fit snug in the shroud. Alternatively, if you carefully remove the front sight/muzzle cap and pack some sort of material around the barrel (down an inch or so) keeping the barrel centered you can pour in some epoxy. Leave room to reinsert the muzzle cap and let the epoxy set up (keep muzzle up for a day or so).

Most the air leakage on the 2100 is from around the bolt. There's fixes for that, but I haven't gone that far, yet.

Best wishes in getting things sorted out. The 2100 is a fun airgun with a ton of potential.

Here's the epoxy stabilizer on an old barrel, I believe from either a 2100 or legacy 1000 pumper...

Good ideas!  Thank you!  I’m now pondering replacing the transfer port seal with ice maker tubing, tacking the the shroud to the pump tube with a little 3M 5200, and wrapping everything with strategically placed pieces of heat shrink tubing.  Then putting a bit of latex caulk or thickened epoxy (with cellophane over it) in the receiver clamshells and bedding the action.  I plan to sleeve the bolt probe with a larger diameter piece of brass tubing trimmed and chamfered to obdurate the breech.  It won’t work as well as a custom extended probe with an O ring seal but if I get it right it will be almost as good.
I like your epoxy stabilizing plug.  Looks a lot better than wrapping the soda straw in plumbers tape.

sturdy steel containers are hard to come by here on the edge of the Earth, at least not without paying a lot.

Thats anywhere now a days.   

I went to a goodwill to see if they had any nice thick bottom pans for a frygong use, and there prices on that used scratched and dented stuff was higher then  brand new from Walmart.   Im like how are they helping anyone but themselves.


So i got the hat25 from the barnshop to clean the barrel on my way i stopped at the bench and got distracted so i hung up this at 30y and took some time killing shots.

Nothing great but for a gun set for indoor 10m it did pretty well at 30y  ( i think anyway)

Then i went and cleaned the barrel..

[A moron]

Well back in the barn...

392P Williams sight on a rest. Looking forward to scoping this one.

[shovelhead]

Oops. 19 yards

[Firewalker]

Good shootin Rob!!

[shovelhead]

Good shootin Rob!!

Thank you.That rifle is awesome for accuracy and power. I spent some time on the trigger, did the same for my C9 and
it shoots just as accurate (eyesight permitting).

Five rounds from a fresh tin of Crosman 14.3g Premier hollowpoints at 24 yards with the 22-caliber QB78 and the cheesy NC-Star 2-6 scope.  It's been a long road, but I think its finally there.

Ride on,

J~

I would be happy with groups three times that size with 10+ mph winds and at 35 yards! I was thrilled to keep a 4" group at 50 yards today with a 6-8 mph winds from the south using .22 cal cast NOE 19 grain pellets.
