Is it the heavy barreled action in the standard stock? Was it new when you bought it? Dose it shoot OK. If it were me me I would be looking to replace the stock, although I think I prefer the Kepler stock over the Anschutz. There are also similar stocks to look at from G+E and MEC which span a reaso...

I use the BKL's on my Anschutz rifles when they need to wear scopes. I use the one piece cantilever on my early 1964 1411 as it only has the rear receiver ring grooved. On my 1813 I use the normal two piece double clamp rings. In both cases pop the Allen Key in and give it a quick twist and off they...

One of the problems that using a Gehman or other similar iris unit is size. I have a Fulton converted mauser K98 TR rifle with the AJ Parker rearsight. This is very similar in design to the PH ones. I also have thread adapter and use my Anschutz Iris/5 colour filter unit with it. I think this is act...

The Pardini GPR1 might also be worth a try. Although the lever looks to operate vertically it looks from the pictures that I have seen as if it is operated by pushing down on the lever with the thumb of the right hand (RH shooter).

Mark I took the time fully to read of of your links. in several places I note that you talk about power levels for air guns before they become firearms. You state that the Republic is the only EU state in which an airgun is considered a firearm if the energy is above 1J. This is actually incorrect. ...

Mark, until now there have been a lot of prone/positional shooters that have not worried about tuners, even for those shooting on the ISSF 50m target and equivalents. For those shooters factory batch testing with quality match ammunition has been the answer, providing ammunition easily capable of ho...

Although the rear rails are supposedly all the same for the German made target rifles the foresights are not. All of the manufacturers have specific and different sized front dovetails. Anschutz have two! pre 1989 and post (19/20xx models) that date. A Walther foresight will not fit an Anschutz rifl...

As far as self compensation goes that has long be recognised in the fullbore world. The Lee Enfield .303 designs are well known for it. Well as long as you are looking at an SMLE or No 4. These rifles were well known to compensate given the rather variable nature of military specification ammunition...

My daughter also has the basic LG400 Alutec. She has some risers from www.shooting-equipment.de on hers. The rear block is a little wide and the toggle link on the cocking lever just rubs against the riser. Also if you have the rearsight mounted towards the front of the rail the cocking lever can ac...

Bob your response with the two examples on auction sites is very much an apples and oranges comparison. The first is a $500 Anschutz 1407 from about 1965 with a serial number of 10557. The barrel is covered in rust, single extractor non adjustable butt plate and one stage trigger. In my opinion thi...

Felt recoil is actually a very personal experience, no matter what the math might suggest. I'm mostly a rifle shooter and always have been, but I did do a fair bit of pistol shooting when it was legal over here. I never shot IPSC so did not ever worry about making Major PF. I used to shoot Service P...

I seem to recall that with the introduction of decimal scoring you would not have normally been using both decimals and inner tens at the same time. My understanding of the rules then was that inner tens could be used to break ties in matches scored with integer value targets, where matches did not ...

The program begins tracking when the receiver picks up a signal, but the data is held in temporary memory until the shot is detected. Then a "window" of the memory gets saved based on settings in the program. The window will be from a short time prior to a short time after the shot is det...

Let me get this correct. You can shoot good small groups? Say around the size of the ten ring. When you put a shot out of this group you can call it? When you attempt to adjust the sights they do not seem to move very far, at least in windage, and this seems to have little effect on MPI? You have ha...

If she is quite peteite then I would suggest that the junior stock would be a better option fit wise. Using an ally cylinder rather than the steel will also help move the CG back. My daughter started out with a Walther LGR which is the SSP, but the club was able to move her to a 300 XT Junior which ...

Am I misunderstanding something here? Did he take 25 shots for each set while going from one target to the next? He had to move the rifle 25 times for the 25 shots? If so, it is a worthless test. Joel Well given that he is not actually clamping the action in a vice, but shooting from a relativly no...

I know that the forces can be difficult at times, and of course you are based overseas too. I had one thought reading this thread, you are in the middle of nowhere in Bavaria, but its the home of 10m air rifle shooting. Do you have no contacts into the local communities out there? if shooters in Ger...

I have been shooting an LG400 in the Alutec stock, and quite like it. I did handle the Anatomic version of the LG400 and I have to say that actually I prefered the feel of the aluminium. I dd not though get to shoot the rifle, just look at it in the NSRA shop at Bisley. The Air Rifle is my daughters...

Given the levels of adjustability that are possible with the current aluminium based stocks I really see no need for a custom stock on a match rifle. The advantage that the adjustability gives you is that it is actually more likely to fit correctly, and if you do put on a few pounds/Kgs the adjustme...

900 dollars for a 50 year old rifle seems really high,hope you checked the barrel and crown out,that L/H bolt conversion was quite common on fullbore target rifles converted from old military actions and seemed to work ok Thats about average in the US, for a rifle that in the UK you could possibly ...
