My wife DOES know how much my rifle cost - she bought it for me! Blaser R8 Success Mono LH with .22lr. .204 Ruger, 6.5 x 55 and .308
Sorted mine out. There was actualy a mashed up pellet in the rear of the action. Like in the probe housing preventing the bolt going forwards. Sorted now though so i am happy.
I had a little sleeve type mod fitted on my x2 to stop this think it can from the factory
You only have the rights you are willing to fight for
This happened to me and got told because I took a shot more than35% the pellet might go into the hammer system
This is what you need ,I think its the 3.5 one you need from memory ,cheap anti tamp tool http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/rolson-6-p...nner-set-n57fx

That's great to hear. I did read that they did not fit and the only one you could use was a Daystate pattern one.
I wonder why the guy on the other forum is overwhelmed with orders for the one he makes at £10 when the Maplins set is only a couple of pounds.
Just don't make sense.
When I die don't let my wife sell my guns for what she thinks I gave for them!!!
DS use the same bolt for .177 and .22, only the .177 probe end is smaller, (obviously..!) this leaves a gap under the probe when the bolt is pulled back, and pellets can drop into the action, if the muzzle is raised, jamming things up. I think someone once took out six..! If the pellet is half in and out of the breech and mag, it can get damaged, and you can't load it, or take the mag out. Gentle rodding may get it back, but if you're too hamfisted, you make things worse, so it's back to DS. They do the sleeving mod, but a while ago they charged for something that should have been fitted from new.
