I really plinking with my Henry 22 pump. Iron sights, shoots straight and hits what I aim at.

I'm using my Calwell lead sled and I'm firing my brand new Ruger pellet rifle ("forward recoil"). On it is a air rifle scope that came with the pellet gun. I may have to upgrade the scope. Hack

Thanks Matt. I found that one also, but the reviews said I was terrible. Hack

I'm trying to see if my scope is worth a crap. Sometimes it hits the x and other times it doesn't. I'm trying to figure out if it is me or the scope that is a POS. Hack

Help requested - looking for a remote trigger puller I've looked high and low and can't find what I have in mind. What I'm looking for is a device that will remotely pull a trigger for me. The reason I want something like this is to make zeroing a scope easier - hands free, so to speak...

Yes, articap, I plan on sending it back. If it was lighter I would be keeping it. I really like how accurate it is. It weighs just over 8 lbs. And for me, handicapped as I am, the Blackhawk is a bit much. The other Ruger, with a wooden stock, only weighs a little more than 6 lbs. The...

Target shot with Ruger Blackhawk Air Rifle - with pics After, many pellets I finally got the scope zeroed and it appears to be holding zero. For a shooting rest I placed two tripods in a "line" and laid the air rifle across their tops (I have some rifle rests, which looks like Vs, that attach...

Dang, I didn't realize I did that. Sorry Hack

Thanks guys, lots of good advise. Hack

Thanks for the info. Rarely it will smoke. Mine seems to really like 8.1-8.2 g Crosman FP pellets. I picked up some 8 g Crosman pointed pellets and, like you said, they group well, but a left of my POA. Unfortunately the Blackhawk, at a little over 8 lbs, is a bit too heavy to be comfortable...

Going from a .177 air rifle to a .22 - here's why. I've decided to return my Ruger Blackhawk 177 Air Hawk air rifle to Sportsman's Guide and get a Gamo Whisper 22 cal instead. Here's what helped me decide...

I got me some of those Gold Gamos Raptors and do not like the way my gun shoots them. I have a Ruger Blackhawk Air Hawk air rifle and though all of them chronied over 1000 fps, they didn't hit where the scope cross hairs lay. It seems like my gun loves the pellets in the 8 g range. They group...

I did not get the Ruger air rifle I had planned to. I did not get the Ruger I had planned to. The one I got is called the Ruger Blackhawk. This gun is new for 2009. It still carries Ruger’s name. It’s made in China. It’s rated at 1000 fps. If you want to see one...
