Nice looking rifles John I do like those fatter silencers. The bloke that I bought this off gave me the original. It's seen better days though. Do you find the back end to be really long on these? I could do with my neck being 4" longer for my one. Also, how do you stop the tophat from moving? I read that the 2 grub screws shouldn't be done up too tight because they can damage the threaded tube that the tophat sits on. Hi Jonjon The correct way to set the power is to adjust the tophat until the power is what you want it at then a feeler guage is inserter between the rear of

I've worn a few beef hats

You say the nicest things Moxy..... Phil Yeah, Moxy. How very dare you The rest of us might be scrotes but, we're not lurkers

Good news mate It'll be a well earned rabbit stew soon
-
If you've tried absolutely everything else - clean barrel, leaded barrel, different scope, checked the crown, checked all the bolts etc and it's still off - I agree with Stealthy and VM - Send it back for a refund. Good luck.

Good luck with the chicks mate Be nice to see some pictures on here when they start hatching.

Aye, I know you like them a bit different mate ...... I think that's what attracted me to this one. Like I said, I just hope I can get it to perform.
-
It's very different mate - I'm still hoping that's a good thing
-
Get in that posh camper and come and have a play Phil - I know somewhere that you can even lob your fast .25s about

Cheers Dave It's an interesting thing. I normally prefer rifles with a bit of wood and blued steel but, for some reason this caught my eye. Fingers crossed it'll come good.
-
They do look like a very capable bit of kit Good luck with the test mate - let us know how you get on

I'm going to have to try some different options for the scope set up - at the moment it's a long way above the barrel - I don't know if this is what's making it difficult to zero but, my last 10 shots with JSBs needed a 2 mildot holdover at 20yrds just to be roughly on target. I think perseverance is going to be key with this one. If I can get it sorted before the warmer weather gets here, I reckon it might be a good rifle for ambush/hide hunting

It's a single shot, which I don't mind. It's solidly built and simple, which I like. So far, I've tried AA Field and JSB Exacts - it seems to prefer JSBs but, I will be trying a few more pellets through it. It's early days but, it seems to have a couple of issues...... There's a tophat in the breech to set the power level. It has 2 little grub screws to hold it in place but, because of the way the Breech closes and locks, it's interfering with the top hat and loosening it which keeps changing the power. I reckon some Loctite will help. I've also read on one of the American forums

I really didn't intend to buy any more rifles this year but, this came up for sale on another forum at a good price. I thought it might make an interesting hunting rig It's a .22 Gunpower Stealth. It's got a Verminator bottle and butt, new Steve Pegg internals, a custom silencer and, what I think is probably an Atlas copy bipod.

I wonder if desertbred is dual citizen of iran and britain or just british I don't know. That's his business. Not sure why you keep mentioning him. He doesn't mention you. He does. Me and DB have had many long chats about Axum Felt shy to like your post lol thanks for backing me up lol * ooww how sweet* lol Of course he doesn't have chats with DB about you. He's taking the piss. Stop flattering yourself. I might not always see eye to eye with DB, but he's consistent in what he says. He doesn't keep changing his tune to score points. Unlike you. Axum, sorry buddy - I was just bein -
It's yours Phil If he can't get on with it, pass it on again mate. Atb

Kind of mate - I did think it could make a good hunting rig
-
Umm, yes I bought a project ..... I'll put a post up about it later

Sounds about right mate - I reckon my eyes are slowly getting more fussy
-
This came on a rifle that I bought. To be honest, it's not great but, it might do ok for someone with better eyes than me. It's an Excelvan 3-9x56eg. The red/green IR works, it's got bikini covers and, to be fair, it's quite tidy. Anyway, I'm not going to use it so, if anyone wants it, it's free
