Re: FWB 2800?

Certainly looks to have a few details that distinguish it from the current crop. Can't wait to find out more details.

Re: Scatt USB or WS1

I have a WS1 purchased in Mid 2013. The first unit I got the sensor/transmitter had a problem with the battery after only using it once and then charging it. The blue LED that is supposed to tun off once charging has completed was still on after 12 hours of charging, the sensor then did not work at ...

Re: Balance Tips?

I think you should get someone to stand behind you and check the barrel is plumb in line with middle of your feet. Get them to keep checking it over the course of a match/training session. If your right foot is slightly behind the left then base it on the middle of your front foot, which most of the...

Re: remove or leave pcp cylinder on the rifle after firing

Interesting... I have noticed many people at a particular local club, after firing and before storing the rifle will do the following: a. Unscrew cylinder sufficient turns to break the seal; b. Cylinder remains loosely screwed into rifle with remaining air still in cylinder; c. Cock and fire the rif...

Re: starik tube/tuner

It makes you wonder why aren't the match barrels sold by the big 3 manufacturers tuned when they leave the factory? They are all designed for the same purpose to use the same type of ammunition of about the the same speed. Are Anschutz, Walther and Feinwerkbau making their barrels the wrong length?

Feinwerkbau FWB700 FWB2700 Trigger Cheat Sheet

When adjusting the trigger on the Feinwerkbau 700 Air Rifle and 2700 Free Rifle I found the English instructions in the supplied Operators Manuals a bit confusing initially. Perhaps something is lost in translation. So this is my attempt at putting them into more familiar terms (at least more famili...

SCATT WS1 (Wireless)

I know the SCATT USB is popular. But I don't see many people talking about the SCATT WS1 which has a wireless optical sensor. Does anyone own one of these? How are they? Have you had any problems etc? Thinking of purchasing from http://www.scattusa.com/ and getting it shipped to Australia as their p...
