Question re velocity adjustment of Steyr LG110

After years of informal target shooting, both AG and small bore, I have developed an interest in both 10m AG and FT. My question is whether there is a high end rifle out there that can be adjusted for the different velocities required. For example the Steyr LG110 and the FT version appear to be very...

Another couple of options, which many of the purists might disagree with, are the CZ American or Varmint with a little Eric trigger tweak, a Biathlon Basic, or a Russian CM. All can be had for less than $400 and provide very accurate shooting.

Question re optimum 10m Air Rifle velocity

I have just begun to introduce myself to 10m air rifle shooting. As part of this effort, I picked up an AA MPR with the SS butt hook and shroud, and added about 1 1/2 lbs of weight.

I just received my MPR and have begun tinkering with it. I would like to add a little weight to it and wanted to get your suggestions. For example, are there already weights available that can be inserted into the internal rail? If not, what about a "hardware store fix," such as the right ...

Just picked up a Diana 100 -- a couple of questions

I think my airgun habit just radically changed.

1) What maintenance is required?

2) It presently has a circle front recticle, which is fine for 10m targets. But a post would be good for backyard sniping. Are other recticles available?

Thanks
