BSA Magnum 240 .22 pistol

I would agree that the 240 Magnum is hold sensitive possibly due to it sitting so high in the hold. Once this is mastered however, the pistol is quite accurate if not as powerful as its name might suggest.

They are an acquired taste but the muzzle velocity of my .177 240 is a very healthy 500+ fps. This is higher than my HW45 and Diana P5, although these pistols are easier to shoot accurately. I love my 240 pistol though, it reminds me a bit of my Sterling HR83 rifle; in as much as typical English quirky engineering

JB told me that the secret behind good power and soft shooting with the 240 was correct adjustment of the breech seal
