Re: FEINWERKBAU MODEL C10

Re: Eley Target 22LR Ammo Problems
Greetings, Take a box and weigh each cartridge. There is somewhere near 2.0 grains of powder, if I recall. Then take the "light" ones and test fire them. Perhaps a call to the Eley distributor and ask about replacement? Or, you could do like Western Cartridge did in the 1960's with a bad l...

Re: Bevel vs flat base
Greetings, I have several moulds that are bevel base and flat base. I have recorded X-ring groups at 50 yards with both designs at 50 yards with a mechanical rest. The important factor is the quality of the bullet. If you buy "commercial cast" once they are sized/greased it is difficult, i...

Re: How to break into Olympic competitive pistol shooting
Greetings, Buy a used Air Pistol. The type that has a lever to compress the air. Feinwerkbau 65 comes to mind. There are also offering from Pardini. Even a Baikal IZH-46. Avoid the ones that require charging with SCUBA or CO2 tanks for now. Then buy some quality pellets and start shooting. It's only...

The recoil springs are different.
The 32 spring has larger diameter wire and is shorter than the 22 spring.

Re: Is the Hammerli 150 a difficult pistol?
Greetings,
Buy the 150 at the "very good price".
Try it out for several months.
If you do not like it, sell it for a "very good price".
Sort of like leasing a car before you buy it.
The advantage of buying used, well cared for, equipment.

Dave

Re: Am I too old?

I was about your age when I started shooting competitively.
Two years later, I earned the 1979 National Collegiate Pistol Title at Camp Perry.
I did have an excellent coach.

Re: Scuba tank setup for air pistol cylinder refills
Greetings, Since the tank will be static, no diving and carrying it around, consider a 100 CFT tank. They can be filled to 3300 PSI and you will get a lot of fillings. Also, look into a used tank at the local dive shop. Just be sure it has been Hydro tested recently; or, have it done at purchase tim...

Re: Old vs new Pardini
Greetings, Accuracy with both the old and new Pardini barrels is roughly the same. The older barrels are not fully heat treated , about 80 HRB, and the chambers tend to erode due to the abrasive material in the priming compound. The latest Pardini Barrels I have seen and have tested are hardened to ...

Re: Anyone still using CO2 match pistols
Greetings, @porkchop I do not shoot as much and my SCUBA tank needed a Hydro test and I did not want to spend the money. With CO2, the pressure is constant as long as there is liquid in the cylinder. Yes, temperature will cause the pressure in the pistol to vary; but, I shoot indoors and the tempera...

Re: Anyone still using CO2 match pistols

When it is empty, just return it to the shop for a new one. No Hydro nor Annual inspections... The pellet velocity is the same with CO2 ...

Re: FAS SP602 Parts?
Greetings,
Music Wire is already hardened.
Once you bend the spring to shape, stress relieve it in the oven at 450 degrees F for 30 minutes.
I have lots of Music Wire. I can send you some short pieces via USPS if needed.
