Hello,
I have a PT70ft on a 700-stock for more than one month now and I'm very satisfied. The gun carries a big Nikko. The original dovetail is fitted with Jon Harris mountraisers on top of which I've placed a Weaver-'bridge' with a drop of 0.5°. Very important : with this weaverrail, the scope needs no more shimming! The mounts I use : Warne Medium 30mm (quick release)
I raised the palmshelf with an aluminium piece and I placed a bipod underneath the palmshelfholder.
Within short time the FWB will be equiped with an alu pellet-lever and the Nikko will get a new sidewheel and marker, both Jon Harris-made!
As for the shooting characteristics : yes, this weapon is rather heavy but I don't see this as a disadvantage. On the contrary, with this setup it feels very stable and it gives me a lot of confidence. The accuracy is stunning.
I get the best results with JSB exact 4.52.
The rest can be resumed in 3 words : practice, practice and practice...
Below a link of some pics of this beauty...
