.177 Tbt Shortstroke Prosport

[rlancast]

Finally tuned my Prosport with delrin guides, short stroke and weihrauch seal. What a difference, hold sensitivity has disappeared, accuracy is fantastic and the firing cycle is beautifull and quiet. Didn't really rate it before compared to my tuned .177 97 but it has been transformed.

Was hesitant before cocking the first time after what I'd heard but no problem at all. Will chrono tomorrow.

A very happy bunny ☺

It would be interesting to see how yours would shoot against mine, I have a very early Prosport that had a shorter stroke from the factory (the same as the mk1 TX200), mines running a Vortek O ring head and a Welsh Willy kit, which won't be much different than Nick's kit (apart from Nicks being cheaper in price).

Well, Pete, as you're in the South and riancast in the North West, and Nuneaton approximately in the middle, there's only one thing for it........well, two actually.......


Meet up at The Boinger Bash in June or next weekend for the Air Arms meet at Quigley Hollow!

Predictable as ever then, eh?

BOING!!

I can't recommend the bash highly enough. Great chance to try some cracking guns. Just don't let Tinbum shoot your rifle. He embarrassed me with mine

I was lucky enough to buy U.K.Neil's V'Mach'd Prosport with the prototype GinB thumbhole stock.

I've never shot a 'normal' Prosport. I am ridiculously happy with mine. If I make it to the Bash we are going to have to compare.

Just chronod and the power has actually gone up from 725 to 755 fps so pretty cool

Three Loctited grub screws. You need to supply your own Loctite (Nick cannot be trusted with the stuff, all the TbT mugs are now stuck to the ceiling.)
