Right I'm going to sell all my rifles & scopes etc....I love all of them, the Skan is a short range NV ratting & bunny basher, the FN12 Raptor light hunter has loverly trigger......Harrier steady work horse.....Mk1 well good as the day I brought it.

I am going to buy 2 new rifles, either 2 Mk2's with 400cc bottles or 2 MFR's. These will probably be made FAC by Ben Taylor in the near future. One will have a decent scope for hunting & HFT (no such thing I know). The other will have my NV kit.

I'm now stuck to choose, the MFR should be quiet, but how does it cope with FAC speeds.

The action is supposed to be quieter than mk2

The trigger is supposed to be better than Mk2

However the Shots per fill are lower, I shoot @ a club twice a week, so 20p a fill is not bad, also I have 2 12 liter 300 bar bttles so I'm fine there. But what about FAC?

If the MFR was £100 more than the Mk2 I would go for the Mk2, but it's the same price of £820 from Ben Taylor direct & Dowlings will sell ex-works for £750 for Mk2 or MFR plus my left hook tax.

Please also see my thread on which is quieter
