    Tuning a Britannia

    Did a Video on a sympathetic Britannia tune which may be of interest, all doable back in the day.
    Ended up with an extremely sweet shooting 8ftlbs.

    Thanks to shedtuner on advice about balancing transfer port/ piston weight.

    Vid on testing and some FT shooting to follow.

    Cheers,
    Matt

    Excellent video, just had a chance to purchase a Brittainia in the States this week. Only $2800! Guess I won’t be tuning one quite yet. But your videos on this rifle have kept it high on my wish list. Not sure I would be brave enough or have the skills to do what you did? I could easily empty the beer can?
