hi chris

cleaning your AAS410 basics a good wipe over with a oily cloth before and after being in the field,cleaning your barrel i use to clean every tin of pellets,but now i clean the barrel when i feel like it.referring to the mtc mamba 4-16x50 these are very good scope ideal for hunting and HFT comp shooting,very clear optics to.having the side focus is great too,not to far to stretch when adjusting.and magnification i use 4 for night shooting and 10 for day shooting and in low light/dusk i use 6

also keep an eye on the little grub screw on the back of the trigger ,it tends to come loose from time to time

 

and in regards to lubing your pellets si has done a video on it

 

here is the link

hi Chris

no lube in the barrel just gun oil,but i suppose it wont matter.just don't put it in and stand your rifle up as it will all run back to the breech

 

yes i use both mamba's 3-12x44 is on me .177 AAS410K & 4-16x50 is on me .22 AAS410K

 

putting a sling on your rifle is personal preference, i have slings on both my rifles

as long as they are done properly and tight, then you should not have a problem with them.

and always check them before and after you go in to the field,because thats when the accidents happen .from not doing your check test before you go out

 

hope this helps

hi chris

i fill to 170 bar 10 shots for checking zero in the field and then it should be on 160 bar,this should be on its sweet point. so you should hit ever thing from 15yds to 40 yds, with 0.5 mil dot for 10yds and 45 yds.

 

manual

i use AIR ARMS FIELD in .22 & .177 they work best in my two AA.

 

hope this helps!

Ah bless

[chris strilciw 1]

just 1 more question. can u clean ur mag and how?? got a tiny bit of blood in mine and para now it wont shoot right.

 

cheers chris

[Buster321c 1,010]

IF , and only if you do decide to unscrew it , be very careful of the spring and bearing inside . Just clean it with warm soapy water and a very small dab of grease . There are a couple of mods you can do to the mag , but tbh it wont make a great deal of difference .
