    If it's .22 I'd guess about 180, if .177 then 190

    You haven't used it for years?? That's despicable, and sickening

    I love my FN-19 .20 to bits. I find that 170 gives the most consistant power curve, although the cylinder is of course larger.

    Is yours multishot? What cal? I could be tempted, but i can't allow myself to be.

    Must...resist...!

    Gazo, you are a first class *****!

    Oh well, it would have been too light for me to cope with anyway. Plus the small issue of me not being able to either afford or justify it.
