Pete No I don`t eat um. But I clean um and give then to my wife`s friend Alen. He eats all the Doves and Quail we get. He had a special request for the 2 I got today. He wanted both the breast and the hearts lol. I will eventually try a Quail,but the smell it gives off when you clean it kind if kills it for me (smells like fish for some reason) _________________ .22 Benjamin Marauder Join http://airgunspace.ning.com It`s Like Myspace for air gunners!   Posted: Thu Oct 08, 2009 8:25 pm sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho how well is that scope holding zero with the recoil?? i want to scope my b-26. it has the same power as your quest +- 1fpe. _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it.......   Posted: Thu Oct 08, 2009 8:47 pm Midichlorian Veteran Member Joined: 25 May 2009 Posts: 333 Location: Middle of the Desert sniper wrote: how well is that scope holding zero with the recoil?? i want to scope my b-26. it has the same power as your quest +- 1fpe. Seems to be holding up fine. I check the cross hairs every day with my lazerlight bore sighter. The scope makes all the difference. _________________ .22 Benjamin Marauder Join http://airgunspace.ning.com It`s Like Myspace for air gunners!   Posted: Thu Oct 08, 2009 10:39 pm sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho i should've asked... how many rounds through it scoped so far? i've not had much luck scoping springers. i killed a $275 AIMPOINT (off an AR-15 ) red-dot 2 years ago on my 12 fpe gamo 440 within 1000 shots which is why i ask... _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it.......   Posted: Fri Oct 09, 2009 2:25 am Midichlorian Veteran Member Joined: 25 May 2009 Posts: 333 Location: Middle of the Desert sniper wrote: i should've asked... how many rounds through it scoped so far? i've not had much luck scoping springers. i killed a $275 AIMPOINT (off an AR-15 ) red-dot 2 years ago on my 12 fpe gamo 440 within 1000 shots which is why i ask... Only put around 200 rounds,so still to early to tell. But BSA has scopes just for air guns. _________________ .22 Benjamin Marauder Join http://airgunspace.ning.com It`s Like Myspace for air gunners!   Posted: Mon Dec 21, 2009 8:55 am alphakilla Veteran Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 121 Location: Commonwealth of Virginia sniper wrote: i've not had much luck scoping springers. i killed a $275 AIMPOINT (off an AR-15 ) red-dot 2 years ago on my 12 fpe gamo 440 within 1000 shots which is why i ask... Dang...springers go hard. Last nite I had to buy a new 1 piece mount for my Storm XT. Luckily, I have airgun rated scopes that came with the rifles. _________________ Beeman 1073 Sportsman .177/.22 dual caliber   Posted: Wed Feb 24, 2010 8:01 am ledsmoke New Member Joined: 30 Jan 2010 Posts: 4 If you´ve got scope problems then I can recommend Nikon platinum Nighteaters like the one in this link http://www.opticswarehouse.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=NSP41644 Or perhaps the Hawke which come recommended also. Perhaps like this one http://www.opticswarehouse.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=HA31244SR6 Note that the Nikon has got better lenses but the Hawke has the optional SCB reticle (Small Calibre Ballistics) which I personally loved once I got it figured out and had put a few hundred rounds through the gun with the scope on. It rocks. Note that the hawke I linked to is with the specilised reticle which is designed by a FT champion. I dont know that personally, but if it is better than the SCB reticle then I´ll be in   Posted: Wed Feb 24, 2010 10:23 am Slavia Moderator Joined: 31 Mar 2008 Posts: 4382 Location: Waseca, Minnesota, USA Double check to be sure that quail and doves are in season and can be taken with an airgun: http://www.fgc.ca.gov/regulations/current/uplandgamebirdregs.asp#300a1b _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!   Posted: Wed Feb 24, 2010 11:02 am oddtodd Silver Status Member Joined: 30 Dec 2008 Posts: 2029 Location: Richmond, IN USA That's why I like hunting starling and crow in my state. Only time you can't hunt them is during deer season and you don't have to have a license. No bag limit, no nothing. Cool huh? _________________ Airguns: Two starlings talking "Larry, did you hear that? Larry??
