I did try some copper plated 10.65 gr H&N domed pellets a couple days ago. They were more accurate than the Crosman 10.5 CPDs. There are a number of reasons this might be the case.

1. They might have less deformation loading into the magazines. They seemed to be…Read more

It was decent the way it arrived, and I think it is currently one of my most accurate PCPs. I think it may even be more accurate than my Cricket. Of course that was made by BAM, not Xisico.

Also, I would note that both of my Marauders required a fair amount of work to get…Read more

Haven’t really done anything else with the compressor. Will update here when I do.

Turns out they looked up the wrong tracking, and didn’t actually ship my parts. They sent me a photo of the current shipping label, and the carrier has actually picked it up.

I just replaced that.

Then I finally ran the compressor and actually increased the PSI in my tank.

I read all the reviews saying it wouldn’t run on a 20 AMP circuit. I figured I’ld give it the benefit of the doubt since my shop has all 20 amp circuits that…Read more

I went ahead and ran the compressor upto about 3500 PSI (same pressure as my tank was at) and then opened the tank valve. The o-ring around the base of the fitting with what looks like a check valve on their drier / bleeder assembly blew out. I took the fitting out, and it looks like…Read more

Actually I haven’t used an AC strike in years (maybe a decade or more). Most are DC now.

Well, I just finished making the mounting bracket to keep my air drier vertical and mounted it. A few moments ago I ran the compressor under load for the very…Read more

I am not concerned about the cut off carrying the current. I am concerned about the collapsing magnetic field of the relay coil creating an arc in the cut off ruining the contacts over time. I am less concerned about the contacts in the relay because it is easily replaceable. Its the same standard foot print as…Read more

On the PCP side I’ve also got a couple modded Marauders, and am currently modifying my B50.
