Maori Haz Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 Right lads, sort of a problem Got a nice AAS200 atm, but problem is i don't think it's up to the 12 ft lbs mark. Problem is i don't want any jackass fixin it, i want to keep under the legal limit, but as i live in london i can't find any decent gunsmiths with a chrono and the skills to push it up that bit until its about 11.8 ftlbs. atm i reckon it's on something like 10 ftlbs or even less. it made me worry because earlier i shot a squirreel in the head and it didn't die straight away as usual, and in general it's not feeling so powerful Any help would be much appreciated. I live in surrey so i'm tempted to try and take it to Bisley or somewhere . Haz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loopy bunny blaster Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 if you do a lot of shooting it will be worth buying a chrono yourself. there is a power adjustment screw, but if you dont have a chrono i wouldn't bother touching it . you might send your gun up into illegal power.

darren m Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 first off get it chrono,d , beg borrow or steal one failing that buy one , there are some really well priced ones out there ( chrombo ) . also look at your charge , the s200 as quite a power curve ( low at the top and bottom good in middle ) there is a inlet screw adjuster , but theres more to it than that if you want it consistant . how old is the gun , have you ever had it chrono,d before , what fill pressure is in it , what pellet are you using .

Mark M Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 Is this gun only rated to 11ftlbs anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loopy bunny blaster Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 mark, it may come 11ft out of the box, but it can easily be put to 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loopy bunny blaster Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 there will be sites that can show you with pictures, that will be easier than someones description Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killer rabbit (r1000) Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 :( have a look on the right hand side just above the trigger for a stamp in the metalwork (2 digits) which indicate the year of manufacture. if it's 07 then there will be no adjustment facility, if it's 06 then there should be a small allen screw just above & forward of the stamp - this will give you a small range of adjustment, if it's earlier than 06 then you should consider buying a chrono (if this is the case, pm me & i'll guide you through the adjustment procedure) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maori Haz Posted August 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 Right yes it's an 02 model, and there is an adjustment thing above the trigger! Theres just one Problem does it matter if there's no gas in the gas cylinder Pm sent! Haz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyber Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 NO MATTER WHAT, do not put your gun at over 12ft/lbs without a FAC. you can get an instant 5 years in jail for possesion of a firearm and is it really worth it? NO, I didn't think so. I actually recieved a chrono today (£40 posted) and it is excellent. My Ranger is set at 11.4ft/lbs and also If you are going to be adjusting the power, you should not adjust it so it is over 11.5ft/lbs as this is a safe limit. If you are caugt with a rifle that is shooting even as little as .1ftlbs over the legal limit you could still face a jail term. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
