So what did you Order / Receive today ? (to feed the "Beast" that lives within)

[BrokeWinger]

Hatsan Bullboss .25 in Hardwood.

Literally just took it out of the box. This thing is absolutely gorgeous. The finish on the wood is smooth as porcelain, yet looks like its been loved for a hundred years.

I read some reviews that mentioned the synthetic stock was kinda flexible and didn't feel very solid.  Though I prefer the look and durability of a synthetic stock I knew the "loose" feel would not work for me. I figured I'd get the Hardwood version and just strip it and stain it black and do a thin rubberized coating over that. The black stain in case any of the coating would get worn/scraped off.

However, after seeing it... No "F"ing way. I love the finish on this gun.

Haven't been able to shoot it yet, the package delivery Nazi's have not bothered to show up with the pellets I ordered yet. And the compressor to charge it with won't even be shipped for a couple weeks yet. It did come charged to just shy of 200 bar though. Which kind of surprises me. Seems dangerous to ship it that way.

Anyway, I don't know how she shoots yet, but it sure feels good in hand. She needs a name! For now I'll call her Boss Lady I'll find a better name in time.

I am in love with the looks and feel of this airgun. My wife is gonna be jealous.

I believe they are wadcutters.... at least that is what Vogel states.
I only saw the one listed under the "Creedmoor" brand on their website, other than name brand pellets from other manufactures.

I will confirm when they get here unless Eric chimes in.

Never tried Creedmoor pellets.
Where are you buying them from?

 I buy them from https://www.creedmoorsports.com/.    They are made by Vogel and really are a quality pellet. My favorite wadcutter is Meisterkugeln but these Vogels are just as good but only come in the 8.17 grain variety.

Are the Creedmore pellets wadcutters?

Do they have any domed pellets?

As far as I know, they only make wadcutters .  Very very nice ones 😊

On their website, Vogel only lists wadcutters, and that is what I am hoping for.
 Vogel USA bought the tooling from Germany.  http://vogelusa.com/pellets.html
The winter indoor matches are soon approaching so 2000 of these will fit in nicely with my Meisters.

Strolling through Walmart for groceries... Flambeau hard cases were on sale again for $10.
Grabbed 2, will go back later for the rest.
FYI... MY Walmart still had pistol ammo on the shelf AND the airgun shelves have been reorganized and increased in size!

I unexpectedly found two awesome air pistols at a local gun show and couldn't resist.

I am now the proud owner of an RWS 6G recoilless spring-piston pellet pistol (!) and a Crosman C41 semi-auto CO2 BB pistol.

I scored the 6G for $200 and the C41 for $15. The 6G may eventually need a new breech seal if I can't rejuvenate the leather original with some oil, but other than that the guns are in pretty much "like-new" condition.

I think that the person selling the 6G took mercy on me regarding the price when he realized that I understood this air pistol's quality, reputation, and place in airgun history.

The C41 leaked just a little at first but seems to have stopped, possibly due to the drop of seal conditioner that I put on the CO2 cylinder I put in it.

Photos!

SCORE is right!!!
Congrats Whirly.

Thanks! Re: "SCORE is right!!!" - I know!!!

I've already replaced the leather breech seal with a spacer for a Crosman springer and one of my hundreds of spare o-rings that I keep around for just this reason!

I think that the synthetic breech seal is preventing any pressure loss when firing. Once the sun comes out, I'll measure the FPS with a few kinds of pellets!

Firing this gun is incredible. Perfect trigger and no recoil. I might actually be able to hit something with this airgun!

My $20 collapsible Tippmann stock arrive today (early !) and tis nicer that expected.
Solid aluminum and locks up tight. Should be a nice fit to the Mellon adapter for the 2060 rebuild.

That looks really nice - I've been thinking about something like that for my 1300KT.  If it works out like it should, I will definitely be copying you.

I fed the beast today as well.  I mean, I really fed it.  New Beeman P1 from PA and 4 tins of H&N pellets.  Early Christmas for me

I didn't order anything, but I certainly hit pay dirt!  My X-TRAC remote for my ATN 4K Pro quit working.  Tried a few brand new batteries in it and it wouldn't pair with the scope any longer, so I contacted ATN Customer Service about sending it in for repair.  After a couple rounds of troubleshooting, they sent me a battery to try, same result.  It was like the remote just didn't have a strong enough bluetooth signal to pair with the scope.  In any event, ATN is sending a free replacement.

During all these e-mail exchanges, I noticed a banner at the bottom of the CS Rep's email about receiving free stuff for doing a review of their products on Amazon.  I already had the scope and recently acquired a pair of their BinoX HD binoculars, so I did a couple of reviews on Amazon and sent the Links to the CS Rep.  This is where it gets good...

I was expecting a ball cap or key chain or some other low value item, but nope, the CS Rep sent me a list of items to choose from and told me to pick 2 since I had done 2 reviews!  So, not only do I have a new remote on the way, I have their SuperNova IR Lamp and a Battery Pack for the Scope coming!  KaChing!  Those 2 items list for close to $300 for both of them on their website!  I was truly blown away!  I just received the FedEx shipping number and they should be here Monday!

Saw those on ebay as well but I think you got a better deal!

 I just sold off an air rifle .  Been looking at Avator's grips on Twisted Sister and really liked how they came out.
  Anniversary's  week after next, my wife saw me looking at them and said "Go For It"!
 So got a checkered set coming.

May need  to order one myself  ...

The Super Sears I use are from Magnum Air Power.

I really like how they behave in my BlueFork trigger assemblies---a very sensitive single stage with no slack nor creep.

The BF trigger blade does have a set-screw (polished the tip of the Loctited screw) and I have adjusted mine for a very crisp break.

I just scored big time, I bought a new unopened box Hertzer Delux shooting bench for $45 off of Craigslist. (sorry, can't post links yet) It took less than 2 minutes to get it from the box to a fully solid bench and chair. Rock stable on a cement floor. The gun rest is solid as well. I'm sure it will help tighten up my groups seeing that I no longer have to shoot off a rolling waist high ice chest and 5-gallon bucket any more!

I just ordered the wadcutter mold in .217 from NOE . . . been waiting for this one to get in the store for quite some time now.  I'm sure they'll be fantastic pellets for my pistols

I got tired of setting up my Chrony F1, so I bought one of those Ali express 30 $ ones, that clamp on.
