My little review on the hammerli ar20ft

[scubaman]

Well happy with mine as well. Managed to pick up one 4 months old for a song.

Only mods done to mine are cosmetic really....
Had the shroud milled away but NOT for any POI shift issues but so I could fit the UK Neil air stripper I found on a certain auction site.
After the milling was done then a simple carbon wrap on the barrel for protection.
Next is a 3D printed adjustable butt pad , again from the same auction site.
Butt hook made for it as well.

As to accuracy, a fellow club member picked it up and shot a three shot cloverleaf group at 55 yds , to say he was impressed is an understatement.

Cheers,
Scubaman.

I want laminate grip, hamster and cheek piece but can't find anyone that would make some

[Hawkeye20]

Went out with my ar20ft and put the silencer on and zeroed in and still amazed how unbelievably accurate it is, can't wait for Hft round tomorrow and see how I get on with it then

[scubaman]

For the laminate stuff you could try some of the 'independent' stock makers on the forums. Wouldn't mind a set myself in fact.

Cheers.

Well done a round of Hft today and shot ok but could to better, I found I had some parallax error but got home and had a little fiddle with the cheek piece and put the scope forward a little, think I have sorted it out but will go out and shoot some targets and see if I have or not

Smashing bit of kit. Got mine second hand a couple of weeks ago while my ultimate sporter was back at Air Arms for warranty.

Someones worked on mine, super light trigger and the cocking mech has been smoothed and lubed.

Ive modded mine with brians hook -://competitionshooter.co.ukand a trigger and a scope wheel magnifier from Andras -://www.maestro-design.co.ukalong with bits from rowan engineering, and michael tawn - http://www.tawnadoairguns.com supplying a RAW hamster and some sports match adjustable mounts for the new scope, all who have been superb to deal with.

As far as the grips go, I've got a full laminate kit being made by warren edwards who is a real master. Ill put some pics up when i get them on.

Brilliant, accurate rifle that doesn't cost the earth.

I have chopped the shroud so it's level with the cylinder, tuned it and what not, can't falt it, how much is the laminate kit costing?

My very good friend Will Geke aka Welsh Willi of Woodfeild GCp got one when they came out first, on its very first outing with it we both attended a shoot at Worcester and he came 2nd and we got to meet the legend that is Mr Jim Tyler- BTDT. The gun was/ is great value for money and Will can shoot it consistently well. For me its to big and hevey, but I have a damadged hand and arm and only 40 % use of it. Will is a big bloke and its like a toy in his hands, hes modified his to take a silencer and it is trully silent. Enjoy.

Have you got any pictures of yours as I was thinking of removing the shroud and getting the barrel threaded

[pruddasfinest]

Just fitted the wood from Warren Edwards.
Photos really dont do these justice.
The grip needed a bit of modding to make it fit, no big deal, easy to do. The guns not finished yet and will look a lot smarter when its done but the wood is a big step in the right direction.

[pruddasfinest]

Got the wood from Warren yesterday. The grip took a bit of work at the back to fit but nothing major and wasn't too hard.

[Hawkeye20]

Man that's very nice well done mate looks cracking rifle. I had my stock/shroud thing powder coated black yesterday and must say looks really good, il have to chuck some pics up of mine

[pruddasfinest]

Cheers. Be good to see the pics of yours. I'm thinking of polishing my shroud or painting it.
Got a following and trigger from andras (maestro-design.co.uk) yesterday to go on my Brian's hook (http://www.competition shooter.co.uk). They're a great idea and very well made. Well worth it.

Went to Stu's at swarland yesterday in the fog and rain on the hill.
Thoroughly miserable weather didn't help the shooting either! Hitting spinners and knock downs with ease but couldn't get a decent grouping at 54yds.
Had a few good groups ruined by a couple of shots going waaay off for no apparent reason!

The pellets I used all looked ok but nearly every target had a wild one in it.
Cleaned the barrel last night. Chronod it today and found it was well over 12 but luckily mine has no anti tamper so I turned it down a lot.
Was hitting the little yellow spinner at 94 yds at smiths today and it was hitting the spinners at the other long range points fine.
Mil dots were putting the pellets in the right place so I'm none the wiser!
Got some jsb exacts to try as well.











This one was ok!

I love the trigger but in Hft your not aloud butt hooks that go under your arm, my gun shots hole in hole at 45 but I do get some flyers but I think that's down to pellets, I brought a pellet sizer and going to try it out as I think it might have a impact if they are all the same
