jordy123 0 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Hi, just got a used BSA super 10 and seems I have a blockage in the barrel, new to this airgun game and was after some advice on clearing it and also preventing further occurances, I have been using BSA pellets and seem to have problems with them catching on the skirt around the bottom, what would you guys recommend, cheers jordy!

Phantom 631 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 For removing the blockage? Place barrel in a vice on bench (protect the barrel from the jaws of vice with paper or cloth) then use a length of 5mm wood dowl and tap the blockage out with gentle taps from a rubber/wooden mallet. To prevent it happening again, make sure there is enough air in the cylinder to push the pellet all the way out and towards its target; finally stop double loading. Says me who is constantly pulling the bolt back and driving it forward again A serious habbit I have to break before I put a 10 shot conversion on or else Im gonna wind up with a stick of lead in my barrel 10pellets long As far as I am aware, there is only one gun that wont let you double load (and am open to correction on this) and thats the HW100. Phantom PS work the dowl from the deepest end towards the shallowest. What I mean by that is if the dowl fits down the muzzle end bu 10 inches but only goes down by 3 inches at the breech end, place the rod at the muzzle and begin the tapping back to the breech. 1 Quote Link to post
