My way around it was coincidental but effective. I have a 1913 Anschutz too and a set of Gehmann variable height sight risers for each, same as these . I've taken the top part of the Anschutz risers and used them with the bottom FWB part to allow use of my older Anschutz sights on the rifle. Not the...

Hello Spaceball. I know that Bruce at Potters in Shepparton has a selection of Varga odds and ends from when he bought the business so you might find a solution there. From memory he has a pretty comprehensive set in the larger lens diameters. Another thing worth considering is that plastic lenses f...

Henry, Kenny's pics show perfectly my before and after scenario I reckon if you loosen the sling way off - 2 or 3 holes at least - then experiment with placement of the stock within the hand before tightening it. Obviously try this in training time! You'll find a happy medium but if the sling is too...

A few months after I started shooting I compressed my ulnar nerve in left elbow and wrist (RH shooter). I had become used to it taking 15 minutes for sensation to return after shooting and one night I just over did it - I knew it was bad when my hand was as numb the next morning as it was 15 minutes...

I can verify that the 7020 sight WILL fit the action dovetail on the FWB 2700 smallbore rifle and I think the 700 has the identical dovetail.

I'll chime in here and suggest saving for the KK300 Alutec or the FWB 2700 Supermatch - both being the free rifle alloy stocks. The sport rifle timber/laminate stocks from the three German manufacturers are all geared towards a "normal" build. The further you are from that, the greater the...

Hello Fernando. I'm curious, are you left or right handed? I am right handed but have a loping pulse out to 9 o'clock. My best trace lengths are getting down to just below 40mm but the challenge I have faced was how to detect the pulse since it's only visible through the sights when more than twice ...

I've used the low temp thermoplastic spheres before on my prone rifle stock. Excellent material to work with. Localised reshaping can be done using a hair drier to heat specific features in the grip. No waste, no sanding required. Get it wrong? Just chuck it back in the pot of water!

Just as a follow up I wanted to add that I've found a new rifle, but not quite what I was expecting. Having decided I would invest in a KK300, I came across a little used FWB 2700 Super Match and decided to grab it. I shot it for the first time last night having spent a bit of time at home doing dry...

Do a couple people constitute everybody? As Rutty suggests they have to used in a considered manner or they can cause more frustration than they prevent. In my own prone rifle training experience it took me weeks to recognise that the floor surface was causing irregular reporting with the sensor. Ru...

Dead thread revival. I found this discussion because I had an infuriating evening training in the hallway last night. The Scatt appeared to lose zero, but would still give reasonably consistent trace lengths etc. I changed tack and positioned the notebook screen to be in clear view from my position,...

Thank you all for the info. A mate has just bought one for bench shooting and I think I will hang out until I can get to handle his before I jump. He currently has a FWB 2700, Anschutz 2013 and an older Match 54. He has used my rifle. He described the Walther trigger as phenomenal.

Hello all. I'm contemplating a change from my 1980s vintage Anschutz 1913 to a new Walther KK300. The impetus for the change stems mainly from two things - the 1913 trigger and wanting grip adjustment that I don't currently have with my non-factory alloy stock. Also I'd like to upgrade buttplates, b...

I'm very interested in trying the spreadsheet if you're still about on the forum.
