How to Identify and Resolve Common Issues ?

We offer a diverse range of insights on identifying and resolving common problems in sports. Our sources encompass academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays shared by seasoned athletes. :

The air or gas expands and the compression increases density, creating a greater pressure inside the barrel. When you press the trigger, this compressed gas is released, which hits a hammer inside the air gun. The hammer then hits the pellet with a great amount of force, sending it forwards with speed and power.
As a general rule of thumb, in spring-powered rifles the head of the pellet should be the same size as the bore or land size, and the skirt diameter should be the same size as the groove diameter of the barrel.
All wood pellets have a uniform diameter, but length can vary from 0.25 to about 1.5 inches. Most pellet stoves will work just fine within this normal range.
A pellet is a non-spherical projectile designed to be shot from an air gun, and an airgun that shoots such pellets is commonly known as a pellet gun.
Airgun pellets are made of lead alloys; they can have different shapes and are fired with both, air pistols and air rifles.
A: Generally speaking, domed pellets are more accurate than pointed pellets due to being more aerodynamic. As air passes around the spherical shape of the projectile, it creates less drag which allows it to maintain its speed and consistency over longer distances.
Pellet airguns have the ability to fire considerably faster, even beyond 170 m/s (560 ft/s). Although claims are often exaggerated, a few airguns can actually fire a standard 0.177 caliber lead pellet faster than 320 m/s (1,000 ft/s), but these are generally not BB-firing guns.
There are two types of wood pellets: heating pellets and BBQ, or smoker pellets. Though they look alike and are both made of compressed wood, they are not same. BBQ pellets are food-grade pellets made only from 100% hardwood.
Rule of thumb: 1 lb of pellets / hour

On average, your pellet grill will burn through 1 lb of wood pellets per hour, but this also varies depending on the heat level and time of year. For longer smoked foods such as pulled pork and brisket, you`ll likely use fewer wood pellets.

Pellet and BB guns use compressed air to fire projectiles, and are also known as air guns for that reason, though the ammunition used for each is not always interchangeable. BB guns can fire at speeds of up to 550 feet per second. Pellet guns can be even more powerful with speeds approaching 1,000 feet per second.
The two main types of pellet mill are the flat die pellet mill and the ring die pellet mill. The flat die pellet mill was designed around the turn of the 20th century to produce animal feed.
177 caliber or 4.5 mm caliber is the smallest diameter of pellets and BB shots widely used in air guns, and is the only caliber generally accepted for formal target competition.
For industrial electricity generation, wood pellets are used as a low-carbon alternative in place of coal. Pellets are ground back to dust, the dust is combined with air, and the resulting mixture is fed continuously to a flame which creates steam to generate electricity.
A powerful . 22 caliber air rifle such as a Benjamin Discovery or Marauder fires a 14.3 grain pellet with a muzzle velocity of approximately 900 ft/sec. The firearm generates a muzzle energy of approximately 130 ft lbs of energy at the muzzle whereas that of the air rifle is only about 26 ft lbs.
There are three different power sources for modern air guns, depending on the design: spring-piston, pneumatic, or bottled compressed gas (most commonly carbon dioxide).
Round nosed pellets have the greatest penetration, even greater than pointed pellets of the same weight. They have a better BC in air than pointed pellets, apparently the same thing happens in soap!
Air rifle pellets in caliber 0.22” (5.5 mm) normally have a higher weight than those with 0.177” (4.5 mm). At the same muzzle energy of the air rifle, they fly slower, have a more curved trajectory, release more energy at the target and, of course, make larger holes (for example, in paper targets).

I have a 1997 Coleman 107 Hot Tub. While filling the tub it over flowed and the circuit breaker popped. Over the years I’ve done this a couple of times. I remove the side, let things dry for a day or so and everything is fine. This time, I reset the breaker and the spa went on. The pumps work fine, and the control panel shows the temp and the indicator light shows the heater is on. However, work never heats up. The local spa repair folks are crooks and they know less than I do, and I know NOTHING. Nonetheless, I’m going to try and fix the problem myself. Now, I need to know the best way to determine if the problem is the circuit board or the heater itself. I also need to know where I can get a repair maual. I’m tired of paying Goober and Gomer hundreds of dollars.
ANSWER : Check the terminals that lead into the heating element to ensure voltage is present (110 AC) if voltage is present upon start up the heating element must be replaced if no voltage is present is is most likely a control board issue. Go to this web site for contact info and possible repair manual aquisition.

Unable to read camera on laptop to load pics
ANSWER : Consider NOT connecting your camera to your computer.

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won’t run down your camera’s batteries.Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system’s drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer’s hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program, such as Picasa ( http://picasa.google.com ).

My mossberg 500 drops a live shell without chambering it after the first couple. I have removed the plug to increase the maximum shell capacity. I have kept it full loaded in my safe for several years, and the problem appears to be new. Would the magazine tube spring be weakened by storing it loaded for an extended period of time? I have purchased a new spring but do not know how to install it. It could also be a problem with the elevator I am told. Is this something I can fix myself?
ANSWER : Tom, it’s been five years on this one of yours. Do you by any chance still need it answered? Just asking because it’s a sort of long answer and I’m not quite up to typing it if no one needs the info 😉

Does ANYONE need help on a dropping shell problem with a Mossy 500?

We have a pop-up with the sink that folds down. We need to replace the sink drain from the sink to outside, but the only flex drain hoses that I can find have a hose only 26 inches long. I know that will not be long enough to go from the sink to the outside of the camper.

Do you know if any place I can go to get a sink drain system with a longer hose. The contraption (I don’t know what it is called) at the base of the sink drain has rusted off so that the swivel part of the drain system is gone. We currently have a garden hose connected to the pipe coming directly from the drain, but when we close the camper, it pops off.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks

Michele

ANSWER : Hi mj2181,I would say your problem should be solved easily with a hose extension , if you can get the extension and then use it , it should be ok for you and there should be no need to get a sink drain system with a longer hose.An example of an extension hose can be found on this link :- http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/part-number/7174401GS/0071/580?sid=SPDx20101101xNXTGHope this helps ,
