Air Arms S410 Classic in 22 complete with Hawke Nite Eye 6.5-20x50 illuminated scope with mildot reticle, and 6-9" bipod mounted on a front sling stud, and gun bag. A pre anti tamper gun which was overhauled by myself about 12 months ago. All new seals, new firing pot and valve, and new hammer spring. Also the trigger has been fettled (not by me) giving a much better lighter crisp break. Gun is currently running at 620fps set for JSB Jumbo RS and Falcon Accuracy Plus, both 13.4gr, making 11.5 ftlb. As can be seen in the photos it has a beautiful tiger striped walnut stock with an oil finish. Located near Eastbourne the reason for sale is using a STEYR in HFT comps. Filling adapter also included. £500 and I'll even chuck in some pellets.

Umarex air magnum 22 Stu Currently a bit stumped as to where a little plastic bit fits

Thanks, spotted that. Will get onto it.

Ok she's stripped down and I don't think I lost any bits!! There are springs! Going to get some seals ordered but I suspect the main culprit is likely to be the bottle seal in the bottom of the firing valve gone hard. Going to be fun getting it back together

Seriously need to get an armchair in the gun room... 🤔

Well here goes and apologies for the long post. We currently have a 13yo JR dog which is extremely placid which is very much Mrs C's dog, and we have my 7yo Patterdale bitch. She's not aggressive but she is the boss. Can happily ignore other dogs unless they start when she's on the lead. Usually bigger dogs as little yappy things are ignored. In short she's a terrier. Now we'd like another dog, the JR isn't getting any younger. Advice please on the sort of breeds we should be looking at to live with a neutered female Patterdale. I've done a little online research and all I've read is don't do it as you've got a Patterdale so you're ********. Small to med sized would be ideal. It would be a house dog. Many thanks for any advice.

True enough, if it was only 6 he should count himself very fortunate.

I get through 2-3k pellets a year and yes some are worse than others. You can use pellets with bent skirts, to a degree, and you're right the air will expand them into the bore. Run a few bent ones over a chrono compared to perfect pellets. You may find they'll run lower fps.

I use JSB Jumbo RS a bent skirts are par for the course. They're light and the skirts are very thin however it does depend, obviously, on how they've been handled before you get them. If you bought local I would pop back and show them the contents. Also JSB quality control seems a little overwhelmed over the last few years and you don't necessarily get one batch in the same tin. I've seen visible differences between the contents. Look at the flat disc inside the back of the pellet and you may some a different size. And head sizes, don't get me started, how you can guarantee 0.01mm on a lead pellet is unrealistic. I wish. Maybe 15-20% go for plinking or positional practise and some og those in the bin.

Tried it today and I think a full strip down and sort out is required. Not enough puff to push the pellets out. It's been in a garage for ages and maybe I was expecting too much for it to still function. 🤷

At least I know what to expect, thanks, and won't panic when the power drops off a cliff.

"You can change to HPA Air with a small Paint Ball air tank if you have the means to fill " Good info, thanks, yes I have a few pcp's so filling air is not a problem. Will do some research.

If it comes out of the fridge, probably.

Umarex 88 bottles. It's an old Umarex Air Magnum I won't be hunting just plinking. Just out of interest really.

As the title says, any ideas what fps fluctuations you get with changing temps? I know they drop but how much are we talking? It's a 22 if that makes a difference. Never used one before. Ta
