    Let us know how you get on.
    Well...not a bad barrel after all.
    Just solid with gunk...it was smoothboring.
    An hour to clean and about 40 patches and brass brush.
    Nice rifling impressions,smooth all way through now.
    Only managed 20 yds with AADF but it does the one hole.
    That stuff isn't half tough to shift...must be baked on cosmoline..lol.
    Happy days.

    Happy to be of help, mate - glad you got it sorted.
    Those brass or nylon brushes sure are cheaper than having an aftermarket reg or barrel blank machined up
    Enjoy yourself - Craig

    Artemis P700 sear adjustment and Hammer spring

    You tube has videos if how to smooth the trigger engagement by polishing surfaces, but the trigger still has a long 2nd stage.

    Remove hand grip.

    Find the screw arrowed in the photo.

    Screw IN to reduce 2nd stage travel to get a nice short crisp break.
    Screw it in too far and the hammer will not cock!

    I've turned the hammer spring nut clockwise to increase tension on the spring.
    Seemed to increase power a little, now getting 5.2-5.3 ft/lbs.

    Further testing to come.

    Nice accurate pistol!

    I can't post a photo in this section for some reason???, so I've put it in the For Sale section. I hope that's OK

    Few years back I had a M10 .25, everything about it seemed spot on, nice weight, good feel, high shot count, quiet, even quieter with the supplied mod, lovely trigger,
    problem was shotgun grouping

    I scrubbed & scrubbed the barrel to remove the gunk, but it just would not group so it went back & I was told it was the last one so couldn't be exchanged.
    Often wish I'd kept it & maybe tried a re-crown or even replaced the barrel.

    I've got two p15s. Both now in 177 and they're stupidly accurate. I've polished the bore/crown and breech areas on both with autosol. Open TP a fraction and eased hammer preload slightly. Both 11.3ftlb with qys pellets which are fractionally better than jsb and jsb neavy
    One came as a. 22 cal but that barrel isn't the best to be honest. Gave that one a Blean and polish but it never came good enough to hint, in my opinion. Perhaps I'll revisit that barrel for another go.
    I love mine and the carm mags are a superb upgrade.
