On my travels today trawling the north west gun shops I came across an El Gamo Centre! It wasn't in that bad a condition - it needed a bit of work on the back sight, but it felt right. Needless to say it came home with me.
Over the chrono its doing a consistent 377-383 fps with H & N Match.
I wont be using it for the next round of the MPL but the inward scoring and the extra one point per card has got my competitive juices flowing. After a brief (VERY brief ) episode with a FWB 65 with the anti recoil locked off I shall give the recoiling pistol section of the MPL another try.
Ive also noticed most fall right through the loading port! I know someone a fellow Rivi member who may be able to make a steel/alloy version. He has, after all, made himself an auto pop-out single shot feeder like the HW100 for his Rapid 7. I shall talk nicely to him when we next meet.
