You'll probably want to do some work on the trigger.


Ned..

Hi Maximus,leave the trigger ALONE, there's far to many 'FAIRY's' fiddling about with triggers. Between us, my mate Colin and I have 6 and NONE have had some 'FAIRY' pratting about with the trigger. <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D-->

Fit yourself too the trigger, strap on a neat Logun Silencer, use H&N Field Target Trophy's .22 or .177, whichever is YOUR calibre. IF you want more shots per charge, take a trip down to Joe Young's in Harrogate and he will fix it for about 180 shots per 250 bar charge. <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::cool:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::cool:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::cool:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::cool:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::cool:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::cool:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::cool:-->

Last but by no means LEAST keep in touch with Range Right and buy the FT stock from them WHEN they have some in. The FT butt, with its adjustable butt pad and raised cheeck piece FITs the MkII Rifle, as does the LONGER fore stock. <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)-->

PS. Don't forget to take your own personal GILLY with you, then you can rest the front of the Rifle on his or HER shoulder. He He He.

I've had a FAC Career 707 Target (.22) since xmas, and I love it! It is big, it is long, and it is heavy, but it knocks those bunnies over that my FAC Rapid just can't reach!

hi there, well ive got a mark 2 career 707 rifle, its very nice tool, problems im getting with it is i can only get 2" groups @15yrds, yet i got a stealth with career 24" barrel which groups brill @ 60yrds, been in the process of trying diff pellets for last few weeks, bismags and exterminaters brill in the stealth(career barrel) but like a shotgun spread in the 707, cleaned the barrel, checked gun out every thing seems fine, i supose its finding the pellet it likes,by the way i dont find them that heavy though..once i find right pellet ill be happy with it ...?????????

[corkscrew]

orson

bad groups could be caused by the pellet being damaged when breeched. my rifle was set up for accupells.
if u change pellet from what it was set up for and that pellet is longer it will get damaged,unless of course you alter the pellet stop length.

regards Seggy

You should try one in .25 cal <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D-->, This one I'll keep,

[orson]

thanx corkscrew, but ive done the pellet stop for differant pellets,, its so smooth loading into the breech it would be impossible to damage pellets , that was the first thing i checked cos when i first bought gun it felt as if you had to force pellets into breech,also if i load pellets one at a time im getting same results, im sure the chap i bought it off was using aa fields?????
thanx kevin.
