Yes...Waterdogs will fill. And they sometime have used scba tanks for sale. I fill my own so IDK what they charge. But I did meet a guy that works there while shooting at LBL range last year. Seemed like good nice guys to deal with.

I have a diabetic dog. First you need to get on grain free food. Yes always twice a day for shots, vetsilun runs me $43 a bottle. I have a 36lb schnauzer. So with special food, insulin,needles. It cost me about $100 a month total. Of course bigger dog will cost more. And as stated above she is now blind but gets around good.

Two Marlin 60s and a Cricket Percision Rifle.
My good buddy Graycrait on TGO has been petty curious about the cricket precision rifle. Have you sat down and tried to shoot any groups with it yet?

I checked their website out and I like the looks of their stuff! But I couldn't find them on Gun Broker. I searched Seller under Robertson, Robertson's, Robertson Trading Post and Robertson's Trading Post. Am I searching right?
Maybe this will get you there.

Do they have a website? I've never heard of them, but I don't venture past Nashville very often. Actually went to Bowling Green last week for a meeting and went via Carthage. Very pleasant drive. But I digress from the topic at hand.
Here http://robertsontradingpost.com/home.html
But look them up on Gun Broker. That is where they post all their inventory.

Robertson's is open to the public? I thought they closed their storefront and sold strictly online.
You have to call ahead and tell them the gun/gun’s you want to see and they will have them out for when you show up, there is no store front it is pretty much a warehouse setup. No random walk-in.

Let me get Graycrait to chime in. I shot his with grip safety and it functioned flawless and very minimal recoil.

I need just enough accuracy so that I can at least stay in Plinker4life's "rear view mirror" when we are shooting saltine crackers at LBL. If he gets too high a cracker count over me I get discouraged:)
Ol' graycrait can shoot pretty good. And can man handle a ultralight S&W .357 snubbie like a BOSS.

I am also familiar with PCP air rifles. You may have to go with a Fireman style SCBA tank setup as they will fill to 4500psi. The Sumatra air gun you have chosen will need to be filled to 3000-3300 psi. I dont Know if there are any SCUBA tanks rated for at least 3500psi? I believe the fill pressure on the crosman target gun is around 2000psi and that is why you can use a standard SCUBA tank to fill with.

Killer deal guys ! Those savage's are a lot of gun for the money in today's market. I miss the days when you could buy a pencil barreled model 10 in Wally world for $209.

Only down side to .177 , it does not buck the wind as well as larger calibers. But does shoot much flatter.

Check eBay for used scba 60min 4500psi tanks..... just remember if they are greater than 15 years old they are no longer able to be filled and require hydro testing every 5 years. You can find a good used tank for around $150 and a good fill setup is about $160 from expert HPA, this will get you about 60 full fills. The air Venturi tank for $300 new will only net you about 14 refills.

I went with an SSP (single stroke pneumatic) so I didn't have to worry about having extra air with me. Mine is designed for 10m shooting, so it depends what you want to do with it as well. I bought it to play with in my basement. I have suppressors if I need to shoot anything outdoors close to the house.
I just bought this FWB 601. It is in the process of getting a stock refinish to a darker stain as I am not into the light stocks.
Might fine tack driver there. [emoji1303]

Checking to see if we have any avid air rifle hunters on this forum? I own two FX rifles, 25 cal Impact, 25 cal wildcat and a 22 cal Benjamin Marauder.
I hear and see a lot of good things about the impact. Just could not justify the cost. I almost went with a Wildcat, but I picked up a FX Streamline because I am not real crazy about bullpups and streamline has adjustable power. Very happy so far with my purchase.

I agree ...... worth the pump time! But one day I will get a big tank.

Any of you guys shooting PCP airguns? I finally bit the bullet and jumped head first into PCP airgun's and really like the results so far.
The good is quality ammo is cheap and available. The guns are very Quiet and powerful.
The not so good so far is expensive set up.And hand pumping, but will be saving up for a bulk tank in the near future.
Current setup is a .22 FX Streamline w/ATHLON ARGOS 8-34x56 FFP.
P.S.may have Graycrait hooked also after a short plinking session today.
And my first love a Air Arms S200

The guys I used to shoot "custom" 1022s with generally look at shooting off the bench: 25yrds has to be 1/4" or smaller, 50yrds 1/2", 100 yrds 1" and 200 yards 2". I am blind and cheap (no good spotting scope) so went shooting 2" saltine crackers 200 yrds. We now call them "cracker guns" if we can put one together we can shoot relatively fast and bust successive saltines at 185-200yrds.
Like Graycrait stated there is a certain unexplained satisfaction of busting saltine cracker's on a 185-200 yard berm. Make's you giggle on the inside. I'm successful in hitting them 60% of the time. And also have a .22 setup for this sole purpose.

I have polished out a receiver. I tried scotch brite wheels , they do ok but still ended up hand sanding with 600-800-1000 grit with wd-40 then finished off with mothers polish and a powerball.
Good luck on finding a donor receiver... If you have a FFL that will not charge a arm and leg you can order a stripped ruger receiver from shooters discount for around $110.

Can't wait to see how the running boar barreled rig shoots.

I guess it is just right on the edge of too long. It will fully cock the hammer as long as the trigger is not depressed. But it may just be riding on the fine edge and barely engaging.
Any experience with ATN x-sight pro 4K?

Looks like a decent Day/Night scope may finally be at a affordable price point for me. Would love to hear any feed back from anyone who has one. I can get this model shipped to the door with a illuminator for $605.
Mostly will be used for backyard pests within 100 yards.
