bazzab Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Hi all, I am a proud owner of a R10 mk1 .22 which IMO is a truly stunning rifle. I totally adore it, BUT am always worried about damaging stock, getting it soaked, dirty etc. So with this is mind I am toying with the idea of selling it and getting something tactical so doesnt matter if gets grubby, not worry about it getting knocked etc. So does anyone have any experience / input of R10 vs Scorpion etc etc?? Or any other tactical options to look at? Many thanks Bazza. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobby Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Hi m8 I have the mk2 and although it is a stunning rifle I treat it with the same contempt as my other( much much cheaper) rifles. At the end of the day they are a tool. Enjoy it scratches n'all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjpainter Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Though about getting yourself a tactical stock made? it'd cost a bit of money, but you'd keep the same gun and have the spare wood stock for when you weren't worried about brambles etc. from what i've heard the other BSAs are pretty good weapons, but i can't imagine they'd be a patch on their flagship gun...

blasterjudd Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 I had a T10 it was a great gun only diff between R10 was no buddy bottle otherwise identical in every way!! As you say stock on T10 is built for all conditions and any weather buy one you won't regret it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chandler Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 I never worry about hunting wear on guns including my R-10. I think it adds charactor and history. Maintenance and servicing yes, but I don't worry about brambles and rain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer-of-the-Futre Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 I'd go for the t-10 tactical. Look even better with a big bolt head and a nice bipod up front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blasterjudd Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Go T10 I agree with above. Got it yet ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitchy Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 i tried a bsa scorpion SE .22 it was brilliant it was in the tactical stock and erm the grouping with bisely super field and H&N field trophy were matched they were the size of a 10p coin from 100 yards away and it was with a bushnel laser range finder and the scope was a richter optic 6x40 was nothing much special only 70 quid scopes and i couldnt fault on accuracy pnly thing was the bolt was spring laoded na dit was a little hard to cock for my liking but im used to hw100 but in my eyes the SCORPION is more accurater then the r10 or super 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
