para90 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 (edited) rigged up one of they mk4 crombro s... hell how long have i been knocking off rabbits at low 9 lb s / bit of a shock to see the readings that low ,just shows the power issue is a bit of a mind game? any idea s guys ? its not loosing pressure as it still had 150 bar after a week,160 fill presure ..its a harrier x 22. had her a couple of years now but it was rarely used when i bought it . if i get the seals done how many pellets can i put through it before it would need done again ?,just so i can keep a record of it . cheers :0)) Edited November 23, 2010 by para90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFN Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 Worth checking to see if you've put in the pellet weight correctly or mixed grains with grams? - Just a thought, might save any unnessassary costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKPoacher Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 You only need around 4 ft/lb to kill a bunny. We airgunners tend to get a bit obsessed with getting the rifles as close to the legal limit as possible. If you check the data on Chairgun you will see that there is little difference between 9 ft/lb and 12 foot/lb in real world terms. I've de-tuned my Prosport to under 11ft/lb to give a sweeter firing cycle with less recoil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bunnies never complained Edited November 26, 2010 by The Duncan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
