thanx bud, the obvious place to find out such things now you mention it, im a member of that forum but can i remember my login details can i hell lol

hi all im just wondering what the consensus is on recoil reduction for an AA tx200. im aware of the v mach kit for example, anyone with experience of various kits your thoughts and advice would be much appreciated thank yooou =)

=) thank you guys , ive managed to get the indexing sorted after a fair bit of tweaking around, the pump i have been reliably informed, is fxxked, bad karma to the dude that sold me it =/

hi all, i just bought a pre owned AA s200 with the 10 shot conversion kits installed, it appears to glitch out periodically, ie not cycle / index properly, i hear there is a hex bolt you can tweak to tune the unit, can any one please elucidate ? also i got a stirrup with the rifle which has thrown me off a bit as im not sure its working correctly, seems like when i get up to around a 100 bar raising the pump feels really difficult and kinda spring loaded like its pulling you down ? no matter how much i pump i can seem to get it to really fill up, it becomes immensely difficult lol

i think i get it a bit more now, i was gettin a bit shpangled by the relationship between scope magnification and mildots, you've nailed what i was getting at with your message dekers. besides outlining certain fundamentals ive just gotta mess around with the kit i have over different ranges and take it from there =)

true being the mag where the distance between the dots is a mil i guess lol

was chatting to someone n was under the impression that increasing the mag had an effect on the mildots, kinda like stretching them out if that makes any sense ? lol

just been wondering at what magnification are the mildots "true" or does it depend on the brand of scope etc ?

the pursuit of consistency and accuracy over distance seems like a noble cause, one i hope wont end up costing me too much lol

cheers for the info =) im inclined to perhaps place tiny ao markers on the scope when im confident of the given range, that coupled with working out hold over with my mildots should keep me quiet for a while lol

so if im understanding this correctly, place a target at a known distance, then rotate the ao until the focus is clear, i would know it was correct coz if i moved my eye line slightly whilst looking through the scope the crosshair would "not" appear to slide / move over my POA ? =)

=( lol i guess it is just a question of trial and error then

thanx again paul, ive read a few things about parallax that made "some" sense lol, the clearest description of it yet was like.... your sat behind the wheel in your car.... directly in front of you on the dash is the speedometer. as the driver, the position of the needle is giving a true reading, but to the passenger who's looking at it from an un square angle, the needle would appear slightly out against the face of the dial. i use binoculars a lot, so im used to focusing on things at different ranges to get a clear picture, as im currently understanding it, when a object / target is clearly in focus at any given distance, the numbers on the objective bell should be the range to your target, only adjusting the focus on my scopes isnt as noticeable as adjusting my bino's, i guess i'll just have to play around with n get used to it, i only got the scope yesterday lol

nice one paul, totally makes sense, my rifle is sub 12. i think it was a vermin hunters vid on youtube where i heard about it, si pittaway, he seems to know his stuff, but then he does have all the gadgets and gizmo's to work things out in a very precise way. also wondering how crucial it is to adjust the parallax for different ranges, or would setting it also to 25 yards do for most situations ?

yeah just got my new nikko ao scope today, ive been using 6 x mag on it, next thing is to work out my mildots, the quest goes on =). i did read some where that if you zero at 25 yards then you wouldnt need to deal with hold under, anyone one know any thing about that ? potentially technical question i know lol
