Hi new boy here from Hawkes Bay, interested in all types of airgun shooting. Heaps of experience with powder burners but reasonably new to air. Just having fun with a BSA GRT in 177 and a CR600 in 22. The CR has recently had major mods to bring it up to a 12ftlb gun. The BSA is getting a new trigger soon as well. Looking at another possible gun in a Weirauch, not sure what model yet.

Welcome to the forum, it's great to see some new names. Did you do the Cr600 yourself, or did the gunsmith have a perm? .22 at 12 ft/lb has such a delicate sound as it hits.
Put up some pics if you can.

Yep after the initial idea was raised one of the guys on the FB page did a video so was pretty easy to follow. Also helped if you had access to a lathe but not essential. Before mods,

yep still running co2, shot count is now down to about 20-24 but thats ok when your shooting pests 20 shots go a long way. It loves to drop pigeons out of the tall trees. extremely accurate at about 25m.
