Who Makes Air Rifle Pellets Practical Machinist

In this case, specifically paintball guns, but as many of them were originally built off of "pellet" guns, the mechanisms are of course similar. Of late, a fair chunk of my work has been to recreate now-obsolete seals, for guns now old enough that …

I'll pipe in here, since the OP asked specifically about the Evanix. I have the Rainstorm 3D Bullpup in .177. It would not normally be my choice of caliber in a PCP, but the previous owner could not make it shoot with any consistency regardless of pellets (largely due to pellet weight and going super-sonic) and sold it very reasonably to be rid of it.

I bought some air guns and lines a while back because my guys were eating the air guns slowly over time. First the tip, then the back clip, then the stem kept getting shorter and shorter. Finally the thing would get stuck and always leak. Took it apart to try and fix it and spent so much time pissing around I finally ordered a new one.

Air rifle pellets have come a long way and now the best pellets are being made of lead or alloy variations. The shapes have also changed, with the newest models having a relatively narrow waist similar to a wasp, broader …

I am considering a new pellet gun, but have no idea where to start. I want something over 1000FPS, .177 cal, no co2 or other bottled gas, and fixed barrel. Since I am running short on .22LR(under 15000 rds) I figure this will be a good alternative. What do you guys recommend? What do you...

Steve I have "several" air rifles. CO2, Springers, pump ups, and a pair of Evanix AR-6 PCP models. One in .22, and the other .17. I choose the AR6 for it's "six shooter revolver" multi shot capacity which was only beginning to be available as …

Howdy all. Over the past few days, I've been looking for a peep sight for a Husqvarna Model 46 rifle and there's a serious lack of options. There are several receiver mounted options that would fit Mauser actions like the Husqvarna, buy that would require a gunsmith to drill and tap the receiver, and they are few and far between here.

Attaching a suppressor to a pellet rifle has the same legal requirements that using one on a firearms does. That is because anything that will suppress an air rifle will work for at least one shot on a firearm. If you do not want to use a form 1 suppressor or buy one on a form 4, then I think the only way to avoid the paperwork and the jail ...

G, You may be correct. The assumption at the time is if it would shoot a 25 cal. lead ball, a .22 pellet would be no problem. Not to mention I couldn't find 25 cal balls. The rifle has great pressure and a dry fire sounds off a "crack" louder than any other pellet gun I …

.17 cal rods were not at all common in most sports stores when I got bit by the airgun bug. The Mono works and coils nice into a pellet shooters kit bag. I suspect it was used because a 1000 meter spool of it was fairly cheap and it worked as well as it had to. Makes for a product that sells well and at a decent margin.

Air rifle pellets are made from several different materials, but the most common materials used in pellets are lead, lead-based alloy, steel, tin, and plastic. Lead and lead-based alloys are among the leading choices; however, there are …

Will have to buy the pellet pot, but he says 40 or 50 pound bags of pellets are easier to haul down to the cellar than 80 pound bags of corn. I (my 14/15 yr old boy at the time actually) used (2) 5 gal buckets. :p I don't like the very idea of burning food. Corn farmers might make more money, but it seems like a sin to me, to burn food.

I have fired 22 pellets from 22 centerfire barrels in several cases, they did work. However the 22 pellet could get by with a very very slow twist due to the shotgun slug like design of the pellets (center of gravity ahead of center of pressure), and would be a lot more accurate with a slower twist.

Uses claim that it is not dirty, I have seen the bagged coal an it looks like black shinny peas. Just noticed at HD that pellets are 245/ton in bags. I did a study a few years ago for a potential pellet mfg and figured that cost to make pellets, using free wood, and before the cost of depreciation was 85 / to 95/ ton.

Some inline muzzle loaders use pellets with a central hole and AFAIK most of the other pellet and cake forms are either industrial use or to make it safer to transport. Packed powder will burn or deflagrate but if air space gets between the granules multiple wave fronts can cause detonation. The cake form tends to just burn in a shipping accident.

To more modern times, people found that the standard .177 pellet shot flatter in a 12ftlb gun than the .22, when high power .22 rifles were developed, the pellet was found to be too light and experimenters used the heads from .22 rf subsonics and had great results.The rifle developed by Howard Buckley is a single shot rifle ie no magazine ...
