Re: Adjust sight or barrel after a knock

Seems like the barrel must've taken a nudge, the scope needed moved the opposite of the amount of wind age I'd applied first time round . I just love the accuracy of the gun and scope combo, in today's gales, I had a 10p grouping of 10 shots at 25 yards.

Re: Adjust sight or barrel after a knock

was only able to release one of the Allen nuts, someone had already butchered the other one! Anyway I'll have a go see if it made any difference. I'd already rezeroed, so when I get a few shots tomorrow, it'll tell me if the barrel was off or not

Re: Adjust sight or barrel after a knock

Barrel isn't obviously out, so I'll crack on and re zero, thanks

Adjust sight or barrel after a knock

My S510 extra slipped out of my hand last night and took a slight knock on the end of the barrel. When I took a few shots with it later, it was shooting about 3" left at 20yrds. Should I correct it by re zeroing the sight, or slacking off the shroud support and nudging the barrel back to correc...

Re: Hawke tac 30 10x42

Received scope today, in really good condition, well pleased! The mounts that came with it are too low, do I need medium or high mounts, to clear the s510 magazine. Also the elevation turret doesn't pull out with as positive a click as the wind age, does that mean it's just a bit more worn than the ...

Hawke tac 30 10x42

I'm thinking of putting the above on my FAC S510, I have a variable zoom scope but leave it always on 10 mag anyway. I like the idea of the sidewheel, ballistic turrets etc plus the mill dot reticle. What are your opinions on the scope and fixed mag?

Re: 10yr old s410 xtra fac

Well, strange how things go sometimes! The S410 Deal rightly or wrongly was my gun (6 month old HW97kt Backline) plus £300 for an 11 yr old S410 and out of date 232 bar bottle. I was working away from home today, with the gun in the boot, to do some sort of deal tomorrow and I happened to call into ...

Re: 10yr old s410 xtra fac

Thanks
Have just established the date of manufacture as April 2004! RFD said wistfully, the wee guns only a couple of years old! That plus an out of date bottle should give me a fair bit of bargaining power, i would think. Im thinking £500 is about the right price?
