yeah, or whether it seals on the dovetail... PTFE tape can cure this too...

Didn't gel with mine to be honest. Just didn't feel right in my hand. I found the balance wrong for my build. Saying that, It was very accurate, I...

And that may be why the old 50 is partially forgotten, many examples didn't provide much more power than the 30s.

That'd be nice, John, but any would do. The 30 is quite elegant so I think I'd be going for a 4x32 as opposed to something really stumpy.

Sounding good, Chris. Personally I wouldn't have thought that a slightly loose fit of the seal would cause an issue, but I'm not aware of HOW much...

I'd of replaced the seal before I re assembled. Possible that it's been worked on then some one has touched it with magic hands to improve it later.

Probably a .22 in the synth stock. Not sure of scope yet but something smallish and fixed mag I think.

I didn’t know that, they are accurate guns generally but shooting an 80s FT course was difficult with them, there was a time limit and the furious...

Never had any issues with the standard HW piston seals. Maybe worth replacing the seal? Or you could try resizing the seal first?

Investment by Gamo was probably a good thing for BSA. BSA are still in business manufacturing in Britain. Webley got bought by British owners and...
