Got a call to see owner of Number 2 permission, turns out he wishes me to take out more rabbits on other bits of land he owns (other bits adding up to about 70 acres). He also has a mark 2 BSA Airsporter. Been left in the loft! Barrel and action rusty, should still work fine though. I tried cocking it, seemed to work OK. He said how much will it cost to get it working, I told him about £40 for mainspring and seals.

Got it home, put it over the chrono. Using Crosman Premier Ultra Magnums, Amazing Grace is doing precisely 9.51 foot pound energy! 9.51, apparently according to SFS, a good Airsporter will be making 9 to 10.5 foot pound energy. So leaving the internals alone for now, time to get rid of the rust!

Why the name? Well you get a 1959-1965 air rifle that has not been serviced for at least 2 decades, that is putting out 9.51 foot pound energy, what would you call her?
