To add that old scopes can suffer terminal damage from the recoil of spring guns.

@ratchersyes it was uncomfortable, you had to mould yourself to it at 6' and yes it did want to sit up if you opened to taps in a right hander.😁 Wasn't really happy below 80 and she'd have a little drift when pushed. What a bike. 😍 I.O.M in 1990 for the GP.
@BobbyHcurrently using an old(er) Steyr conveted to 22. We're a special breed 22's in hft, stubborn or stupid I haven't decided yet.

Guessing 22 by the size of those tins.

What,like this you mean?

Wow, what a post. Stunning pictures. You're very lucky to have had the opertunity to make that trip.

That is very nice indeed, highly desirable and right up my street.
Sadly I cannot at this moment in time.
Good luck with the sale, I hope you don't regret it.

Clean the barrel. Some like to to be clean and will throw fliers if not. May take a doz or so pellets to get back on song afterwards.
Worth a try.
-
As above it can be done to prove a point but you really want something a little larger.
69gr GGG match through a 1:8 twist barrel will get there in 223.

There's also Emley Moor FTC which is quite close.

Have a look on the well know site for trading guns. There are loads on there for sale. Just refine your search

You probably mean alan123shooting on here. He does some amazing work with guncases and is a really nice guy to deal with.

That's the fella, thank you.

Have a search on here for motor cases. I'm sure there is someone on here that referbs them and would be the man to ask about a invisible job

My word that is pretty. I could spend hours just looking at it. I'm sure it's not to everyones taste but it ticks all my boxes. If I didn't have my CG I would have been sorely tempted.
Hope you get it sold soon.

Was going to suggest Bob Pattenden too. Been printing stocks for a while now.

Nope he'll just keep appealing till they vote him in then he'll pardon himself. If he doesn't win the presidential election he'll incite a civil war.

Ideally I want to get something with diopter sights just for a bit of interest.
Have a word with @ditchman
He did an post on a diopter sighted springer if I remember correctly. Very nicely done job it was too.
The FWB 300(?) was a side lever operated spring gun with diopter sights and a recoiless action. But has been mentioned 6ftlb only and heavy as.

Not that Im a boinger but doesn't the wight absorb the recoil bit like a sporter shotgun. Guess Scottie was right....

Having not read this thread for a while apologies if this has been posted previously

Currently the Pandora add telling me I don’t know what it's like......

There were variants of the 1200's which had detachable magazines. Basically a M98 mauser, if I remember correctly, bottom metal and magazine conversions are available. But speak to the folks recommended in the above post first.
I'd be interested in seeing the results if you go down this route.

it's also done it to me twice since i've been a member (which is only a couple of weeks) and i did exactly the same as you.
if you've saved your preferences how does it keep having a pop to change 'em again?
No idea, it's doing it again after a week even though I saved my preferences. Putting me off bothering to visit the site tbh
