Re: HFT 500 air blast

You seem to know what your doing, have you had the barrel out? I would check to see if transfer port lines up with it, look up hole in bolt housing. Rog

Re: S410 .22 pellet preference

I don't bother to wash pellets, but I do lube them, either daystate rangefinder or Napier power both in spray bottles. Rog

Re: S410 .22 pellet preference

AADF 5.52 16gn for my S510 and I zero at 25yds, always worth trying first, JSB is a good alternative as well, but in my S510 it's AADF all the time. Rog

Re: Springer scope. What you all using?

Just put a Leapers 2-7x32 ir on a HW95 .177, from J S Ramsbottom £39.98 with postage, didn't even have to zero it, ok straight out of the box, amazing value, just the job for a springer. Rog

Re: Barrel band?

Slightly different with MPR as you have a proper barrel fitted, and I like the idea of leaving grub screws loose, can't believe I hadn't thought of that, I would still float the barrel though, and the barrel band on MPR 10m sporter/ precision & biathlon are all different from FT. Rog

Re: Barrel band?

It's all about performance, not over worried about how they look, the pellet has got to go where I want it to, keep the band on in case you knock it but open up the hole where the barrel goes, easy enough to test, benchrest with band on, then try with band off. Rog
