    Titan Manitou .25 accurized

    Bought a nice Titan .25 in lovely condition. Couldn't wait to try it at our club range, but found it shot about one metre to the left at 20 metres even with scope fully adjusted. Looking down the barrel could see the silencer pointing way off to the left, the barrel was bent just at the cylinder/barrel bracket. Took barrel off and put it in the lathe to spin and try to straighten and managed to get it quite straight but I knew that just any slight deformation would throw the pellet off course. Taking measurements I worked out it was possible to take 15mm off the barrel without any detriment to silencer fit. Then I counterbored the barrel back another 15mm with a 7mm drill and re-crowned the bore with a correct shape mounted point. The rifle is now a little gem, shooting one hole groups.
