How powerfull is my Airgun

[NICKNSD 0]

I have recently purchased a BSA Lightning XL from someone on this site. When my gun comes, how do i test how powerfull it is? i know i could go buy a cronograph but is there any other method i could use for seeing how powerfull it is. I have been told that the gun is only two years old so i am not to worried about it been low on power but this is my first gun so dont have any experiences to compare it with. I would like to think that it shooting close to the limit but how do i tell or am i worrying about nothing? Anyones views would be much appreciated. This is my first real post and i am not sure if i have put it in the right place or not, so apologies if i haven't

Hi, mate.

 

If you've not got a chrono, then you need to find someone who has, gun shop, whatever.

 

If you've bought the gun and it's not been dicked about with, then don't lose too much sleep. It should be ok.

 

Cheers.

id be very carefull having a gun shop to test the power,reason being if its over 12ft lbs,the uk legal limit,they have the legal right not to return the gun to you without a fac, cheers mike.
