    while a bit trickier to take apart than your regular HWs, they respond pretty well to a basic tune - I fitted a Tinbum kit to Valeboys a few years ago and it certainly tamed the twang out of it. If the gun has never been opened since factory, I would thoroughly recommend a strip, clean and lube. and while you are in there, it would be rude not to dress it up with some delrin!
    Its never going to be a 77 or 97, but they are still nice little rifles and certainly capable of modest accuracy.

    *edit - I just remembered I filmed the reassembly of Valeboys 57! I actually filmed the strip and fitting of the Tinbum kit, but youtube took it down because I had the radio on in the background !
