stealthy1 3,964 Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 Over tuning is not allowed on this forum, but if you do, its a suck it and see job, tweek it until it starts to fly a little, then tweek it back until the accuracy returns, dont know why you would want to though, they're a good enough gun for the size of quary you will be able to put down with a 177 pellet Quote Link to post

aaronpigeonplucker 32 Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) that's very risky mate as if the police get hold of your gun there not going to test it with light pellets like AA Fields, they're going to choose the heaviest pellet they can get there hands on and if your 0.1ftlb over the limit you'll have a fine for owning a firearms without a certificate. i would tune it down to something more sensible like 11.5ftlb. i'm not sure why nobody has posted this before but i would turn it down immeadietly before its too late.

Phantom 631 Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 12 ft-lb's, mate, unless you've an FAC. Cheers. My Meatloaf impersonation Andy "You took the words right out of my mouth" I agree with Aaron, but I do know they DON'T just use the heaviest they can lay their hands on, they have to use a variety of the most common, light, medium and heavy under temperature and humidity controlled environment, which is why they only have one testing centre.

Heavier pellets dont always produce more power, Ive noticed this myself while checking various pellets for consistency. Kyle Quote Link to post
