    Forgive the misspeak: the Benjamin Bulldog is chambered in .357 cal (not .30). I was greedily shopping for a .30 around the time I made this video and I suppose it was in the back of my mind. 🧠 🫠

      Well those usually shoot 1.77 or .22 pellets and just use the air from breaking the barrel good for small game but this could potentially take down larger game specially cyotes and idk about places where firearms are hard to get for hunting if these are a legal alternative but if they are worth the price but my gamo gets the trick done

    The first time I seen a PCP, it was a Hatsan Bully .30 cal, I was like "big deal, what's the appeal". My Dad got it and me being a gunsmith, I was a little leary. He set up a cinder block about 50 yds away and let's me take a shot. I couldn't believe it. Disintegrate is an understatement. This thing really rock and rolled. He just picked up a .50 cal one and I just couldn't believe the power. It was uncanny. I'm still stuck in the gun world, I've been on a .300 win mag and 7mm-08 kick lately and just can't justify adding another to an already expansive collection. It's hard enough keeping up with 25 separate cartridges and keeping them stocked. But PCPs aren't a bad choice, money wise. Once you have a decent pump, a little pony tank for travel, and some decent pellets, you're ready to go. Plus making pellets in SHTF situation is going to be easier than reloading ammo. Hell, you don't even need heat to make the pellets as you could swag them.

      @@Wildwestwrangler I’m as broke as a joke. I haven’t been able to work for the past two years. I’ve had to liquidate a lot of my toys. I had a hip replacement that developed an infection. My surgeon really wasn’t on top of things and it turned into a two year nightmare for my family and myself. I’ve had 7 surgeries since 5/25/21 on the hip. Went almost a year and a half without a hip joint at all. Just a medicated plastic spacer. Really really stupid ordeal. Handled all wrong. That surgeon was booted out of the group he was in thank the Lord, it gave me the opportunity to switch to another much better surgeon. He put my new hip in this past June. It’s going to be a long haul for recovery. My poor wife lost her job also due to missing so many days taking care of me. I’ll be paying my friends back for years.

      Actually you can do the same for a pcp! 😃. You’re correct about the valves and seals. There are two schools of thought on storage. Most believe it’s best to keep the air tank full to hold pressure on the seals but if we’re talking years, you could de-gas the tank, grease her down…and store. May be good to pack alongside a few extra sets of O-rings slathered in silicone grease and vacuum sealed as well. Breaking down the tank and oiling the inside would be good. (Air moisture inside could damage)
      But these guns definitely have their place in a post apocalyptic arsenal. When the days of no primers or propellants are upon us…all these babies need to run are air and lead! Happy shooting! 💨

      @@timschulte6371 that’s awesome Tim! I know you won’t regret it. Definitely more PCP videos to come. But what’s mine blowing is I’m not sure if there’s enough to the maintenance to make a video on. They are virtually maintenance free. I actually never clean mine, though some of them do come with swabs and a rod to push them through. One thing that I can say I do with habitual consistency : is lightly coat all of my hand casted projectiles with “Wiscombe’s honey”. It is a mixture of Hoppe’s gun oil and STP engine treatment. Mix 2:1 respectively.
      Every projectile sent down the barrel, comes along with a light coat of oil and takes nice care of your barrel and rifling. This is particularly important in the south, where we have a lot of moisture in our air, which can be a danger despite the pre-filters that come with our compressors. You may find there are a lot of naysayers out there when it comes to bullet lube and big bore air guns. Ignore them. I get nice tight groups and impressive distances doing this. Velocities are also not affected in any negative way. One extra plus of doing this is if you cast your own bullets, the coating will prevent surface oxidation virtually forever. Happy shooting 💨

    Some of those can easily and illegaly be converted to shot with as much as 200J. The conversion kits themselfs though aren't illegal, just the converted end result!
    Worth considering if you have a Prepper Mind in restricted Countries and still want to be prepared for the Worst Case scenario.
