Thanks for that link, I see Knibbs have finally updated their old website Smile I did notice however they have Lowther Walther blanks in .25 that are 26 inches in length for reasonable cost however unchoked and I do love BSA swaged barrels 

http://www.airgunspares.com/store/product/6099/Barrel-Blank-.25-Cal-26%22/

Those extra 6 inches over a standard 20 inch QB 78-79 at .25 Cal would make a significant difference to the FPE using CO2.

It was under $200nz delivered, that was including a couple of Hatsan breach seals.

Thats a complete bummer, I wanted a 24 inch QB .25 barrel.
What was the Knibbs cost? perhaps they still have some.

Hey, still good though - 15 compared to 5 ft-lbs...
 
I'll keep a little purse aside incase I get the chance to get ahold of one. I've been reading too many good things about the QB's to turn my head yet another time. I like the idea of the moderator on them too.
If you get a good price just PM or email me and I'm sure I can get some money to you asap... If you want to play with and tickle it up a bit, I am in no particular hurry. I'd rather wait and get a nice one and cross your palm with some coin for your troubles...
 
Cheers...
 
Oh if you want my email address just say so and I'll PM you...

Will do mate, should be able to get a price break on 2 or more.
Always happy to mod a QB, I can't do valves like mine as it was made for me, but I know a few ways to get good flow through the stock valve.
I tunned up Seppo's .177 from around 5fpe to over 15 with 10.?gr JSB heavies :-)

Hey, if you do decide to get one in, give us a yell. If you ever want to beef another one up to those above specs, give us an even bigger yell. That energy level really caught my eye...
 
I haven't been haunting to many airgun forums of late because of other things happening but I will keep a better eye on this one from now...

Yeah they do seem hard to find at the moment I'm sort of looking for one as a base for a gun for the misses and can't find any either!
The other "problem" is they only ever seem to be in .177 too.
I'm thinking I might have to buy another .22 from the States or even the parts to put all my spares together Smile
