air gun mount for sheridan 20 caliber..
« on: April 17, 2008, 08:14:19 AM »
HEY AIRGUNNERS...  I have a friend that is interested in scoping his sheridan pump 20 calibre .. he is not adverse to a dot sight either... the problem is first :
how to mount it to the small barrel of the airgun, and second ; what is the source and recommendations for the mounts, sight and rings, etc.
He is just getting back in to the game and this is what he has...
also : what source for a bunch of pellets would you suggest ?  he will buy several thousand once he sees what his gun likes again..

I am thinking of dusting off my 177s in pistol and rifle ... but am seriously thinking about a larger bore gun at around 25 or 32 caliber - I like the idea of a 32 as an inbetween gun and am just getting a 32 mag pistol ruger... so the weight of the bullets etc seems pretty good... around 75-115 gives a few choices... I realize there may be no 32s out there.. and I may have to go with another caliber... I am just curious ... I did like the sumatra for an out of the box gun as it has some proponents here and elsewhere, that speak well of it...
25 caliber would not be too bad to go to..
I am thinking that a gun that needs a slightly larger bullet could benefit by one of the 22 type accurizer items out there that sizes the bullets you put into them exactly to what you neeed ... it works great with 22s...

If any other person needs this info : pyramid air has two items on site for this mount solution... one is a b square the other is a different brand... one clamps onto the barrel and then the mount grips to that and the rings to the mounts...
the other uses the screw holes on the sides of the reciever near the bolt handle....
there were no two peice mounts seen..
additionally, there were rings that fit these weaver mounts in various heights L: Low to high..
also available in 30mm and one inch..

update.. also found a benjamin sheridan two peice mount that did not block the loading area so much.. the only problem is to set the scope back far enough for proper eye releif.

Set the mounts and scope way down the barrel - scout style - and use a pistol scope.  Thats how most are set up (I got mine that way)
