Michael5 2 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 I live in Northern Ireland and got myself an hw97kt last year , I'm now looking to find myself a pcp to put on my FAC , could anybody recommend an Fac pcp that has plenty of shots per fill in .177, my price range is within £500 to £900 ( that is including charging equipment ) .

Big bald beautiful 1,231 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Rapid, daystate. Quote Link to post
AirgunGuy 362 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Theoben Rapid mate but better in .22-.25 as .177 will be unstable depending on FPS Quote Link to post
Michael5 2 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Do you know how many ft/lbs the BSA r10 is in fac ? Quote Link to post
AirgunGuy 362 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 I think it's around 28FPE. Quote Link to post
Michael5 2 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 To get it to 28 does it need to be tuned ? Quote Link to post
AirgunGuy 362 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) Are you talking about taking a R10 from sub 12 to FAC? If so then the general consensus is that you'd be better off buying a dedicated FAC rifle You should join the BSAOG...loads of info on all things BSA Edited November 4, 2012 by AirgunGuy Quote Link to post
Michael5 2 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 I think I might get an air arms s510 Xtra fac , does anybody have any experience with these that could recommend them ? Quote Link to post
Buster321c 1,010 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 You`ll get better shot count with a Rapid . Quote Link to post
AirgunGuy 362 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 I think I might get an air arms s510 Xtra fac , does anybody have any experience with these that could recommend them ? Try the AAOC mate. A few of the guys on there have them Quote Link to post
Michael5 2 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Do you know how many shots you would get with the AA buster ? And is there a power adjuster knob on the s510 ? Quote Link to post
Buster321c 1,010 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) Ye the 510 Extra has the power adjuster on the side , you can wind it up from 7ftlb to about 30 ft lbs . The fill is about 200 bar and will give about 30 shots . Thats @ 20ftlb in 177 30ftlb in 22 35ftlb in 25 Thats the rifle , not the carbine , which will give half the shots . The TC ( Twin Cylinder ) will probably double that , but its ugly as sin . Edited November 4, 2012 by Buster321c Quote Link to post
Michael5 2 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 That's not to bad as I wouldn't be shooting at max power all the time , I would prob keep it around 20 ft/lb , do u think that would give you much more shots ? Quote Link to post
Buster321c 1,010 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 I guess you`d get a few . Only down side is the Extra a quite a long rifle . Best thing to do is get to your local gun shop and try one . Quote Link to post
