So I’ll ask, but let’s not hold our breath.

Hi Roger,

I'd love to compare the power and trajectory of the .25 vs the .22. I hope Crossman is generous.

I'm going to bring my Diana 54 springer with iron sights also, I don't imagine there will be a long line of shooters waiting to try that one out with all the PCP rifles available :lol:

It looks like this is shaping up to be a really fun day. Let's hope Mother Nature smiles on us as well.

Update
I got a call back from Chip at Crosman yesterday.

He called just as I was about to hit send on an email to them.

He Introduced him self and we talked for a while. It was his 2nd. Day with Crosman, he will be working on social media marketing.

He asked how he can help, and asked him about the stuff I mentioned in my previous post, and cc’d him on the email. He will see what they can do ;)

We asked and they will see what they can do for us, so let’s keep our fingers crossed :)

Spoke to Crosman again today :D

Looks like it is shaping up to be a surprise Sunday, for all who will be attending the event :?: :?:

They are sending me a few things to be handed out at the event. And they are working on loaning us a .25 for the event. (If they can get it here in time for the event)

So if you are a lurker that may want to join us for the fun shoot. Please become a registered user on this forum and reply to this thread. If you are a forum member in the Sacramento area please sound off and join us.


If you are new to Airguns, and don’t have one yet you are still welcome to attend. Most of us are willing to share our airguns with others. This allows you to experience a bunch of different airguns in one place.


If you are a powder burner shooter and you want to get an Idea of what modern PCP airguns are capable of at 50 yards and beyond, join us. But this is an airgun only shoot, so please leave your powder burner and all that expensive ammo at home ;)

Hi there,

Looking for a clarification on the directions, if I am traveling south on Sunrise BL do I turn left or right on HY 16?

See you there. Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Thanks,
Scott

Hi Scott,

Heading south on Sunrise you go left on Highway 16 towards Rancho Murietta. The turnoff of onto Ione Road is only about a mile or so past the second entrance into Rancho Murietta.

See you Sunday,
Jim in Sacramento

WOW Crosman sent us some stuff for Sunday:

Lots of .22 pellets...

Hats, shirts, and a few pellet pouches.

OH yea, they loaned us a Marauder, It is here. Unfortunately only one tin of 200 Benjamin .25 pellets :o

Talk about the Dark side calling, Only 200 .25 CP pellets, Must not unpack Marauder until Sunday,,,,

I hear voices from inside the brown box saying "Open me up and shoot me, You know you want to :twisted: "

I fear trying to fire just one shot would cause the whole tin to disappear. :oops:

Must be strong, must not open the brown box :?:

Could not resist, I opened the box, looks nice, and feels good.

I also opened the pyramidair order box, and found a tin of .25 JSB pellets, and some tins of .25 Kodiaks in the safe so all is well :) We can shoot away on Sunday.
