With me at the trigger, so down to my mistakes, it hit a 50p piece from 100ft 3/5 times prone, with no gizmos at all. It's a fantastic rifle and you should definetly keep it. Maybe you ought to get the fps checked out for sure before you start hunting with it, just to make sure it is fast enough to be humane, also use some good pentraters.

Your too polite Sam Vines ! 700 fps tops in .177 & 500-550 in .22 & thats with a little dieselling, Great gun, I have 2, for sale, One in in good condition & 2nd repaired stock & tap but still nice, but shoots OK with its square spring,

I was going to put a pic of them up & ask a valuation ( Anyone !! )
As an aside, I see a rear sight for a MK111 went on Fleabay for £35 + post, And a front sight is on there now,
I hope you take this in to account when you make a valuation, Thats £50 + post, just for the sights, ?
break the 2nd one, If enough intrest .

Cheers,
