Bolt arrived today. Installed.
pellets pain in arse to feed in with scope on. But then pellets were pain in arse with tx in beginning. Hopefully time and practice will sort that. Padded out base of grip and side of grip hoping it would stop stock movement. Hasn't will have to go to harder material. To windy to set up for accuracy test but volicity increased. ftt 14.66gr Unsorted Numbers. 531 fps ( I assuming I had air left in but pretty sure I didn't, may have been pellet, or chrono) rest of string 491,497,491,492,494,491,494,484, 494 hi 531fps, lo 484fps, ave 495fps that gives a fpe of 7.98@495fps. So 19fps gain ( prob be a tad lower if dropped first shot and reshot it) increase of 1 fpe with barrel change. Got to find an end cap for breech if anyone knows of one. Breech came without bolt or end cap. will sort piston, valve and port next. ( yep bit the bullet and ordered a debit card) Throw up some grouping targets when wind dies down. |

Ok, good idea. I will try and do that. I've done some mods to it too. I guess, watch this space.

Im no expert to be fair, but imagine both are good and an improvement on original. Both seat the pellet a little further past the transfer port.

I'll be reading it, be great for info the site. Probly drag a few to site of Web. seems that its a well loved model of gun. |

Good stuff. I imagine the longer barrel will get you more efficiency.
I bought a Crosman 362 a month ago, and I am very impressed by it. 4 pumps gets me just over 8 foot pound, and accuracy is very good too. Very similar price. |

Well got bored and drilled out the standard barrel band to within a mil then sanded it out to fit longer barrel and threw stock on to see how gun feels.
Light,steady, short, very nice to shoulder, quick to get on sight. really nice point of Balance. little bit of stock movement, I'll sort out. Hopefully the postie brings the new bolt tommorow and I can test it for volicity. Turns out gamo scope will fit till I get a picatinny adaptor, so I can clip a scope on and off. polished hammer some what. ( machining tool marks petty deep and didn't look like any effort to remove them) Piston tube surprisingly smooth hammer end. Look at pistion end of tube after i see what fps increase I get off barrel. If it works out and is accurate I can already see it as my primary gun for small bird/pest and close rabbit. I'm really liking it. already considering getting a second one if this works out and only putting top end parts on, now I'm starting to see what gun is about.For about the price of a gamo magnum I could have a totally custom gun.
