FWB 700 universal shot count

Could anyone tell me what sort of shot count I should get from this rifle, I bought it a couple of months ago and have just found the time now to start to get to grips with it. I charged the cylinder to 200 bar and checked the velocity over the chronograph and it is on average 601fps, from what I ha...

Good advice I'll check and see what I got with the rifle and start with the biggest and work down. This is a new discipline to me so it may take a while to settle in to what is right and what is not, the foresight tunnel is 22mm and if my prone shooting tells me anything that more light is a help to...

FWB 700 Foresight Size

Just a quick question, what size of element do you use for 10m shooting ? I am having to buy some new elements and don't want to buy to many that will never be used, so an indication of the range you use would be helpful

Thanks

Hi Tim,

I thought it would, the perspex elements are only just over 16mm which was causing me to have to think before posting definitive info, and I know from a previous FWB300s with non removable foresight that the threads were not the same.

Thanks

I have just tried an anschutz front sight locking ring and found that the inside diameter of this and the FWB one are the same on my one at least so I am a now thinking that a standard 18mm iris will fit. Word of warning though, I did have a FWB 300s and that did not have the sane removable foresigh...

FWB 300su Foresight Iris

Hi All, Can anyone confirm that a standard 18mm iris will fit a FWB 300su foresight tunnel, Getting foresight elements can be difficult and an iris would allow greater freedom in different lighting. Just don't want to blow £100 if it won't fit and being an older rifle I'm just not to sure. Thanks Iain

FWB 300su Help

After re-sealing and springing the above rifle it is not possible to get the sledge to slide when in the stock, outwith the stock it moves, I am not sure where I have gone wrong as the pins came out without a fuss and all has gone back the same. All was cleaned and re-lubed with FWB grease and some ...

I have the precise stock and have been using it with my 1813 action and it is a cracking bit of kit. Would recomend that anyone looking for an alloy stock to have a good look at it.
