meathumper 29 Posted October 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Hi, i usually shoot at x8. Ill change that, cheers. Ive got some nitesite filters. Im a bit concerned that after adjusting the camera to the clearest picture, the vertical mil dots arnt that visible. Is this normal? Quote Link to post
David.evans 5,323 Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Mill dots should stay clear mate , try the camera a bit more , also I've used the filters from nite , and found them to be to dark to the reticule (might be my old eye site ) a member on hear was kind enought to send me a pice of red filtter, witch works grand , and I've got a also a pice of green , which I can send you to try out , pm me your address mate and I'll post thenm to you !

David.evans 5,323 Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Also , move the camera in or out away from the scope , the mill dots should come clear Dave Quote Link to post
meathumper 29 Posted October 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Very kind dave, ill inbox you. Unfortunately I thought i would check zero and chrono as its not been quite right. Now i know why, its only firing at 6.40 - 6.50 ft lb, so its off back to the shop. As you can imagine im quite upset with the new nitesite sat there! Quote Link to post

But now the lot is going back! Quote Link to post

PJWmids 35 Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Might just be the probe seal. Quote Link to post
meathumper 29 Posted October 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Yep your right. Went to local gun shop, bought one. Just changing it now. Quote Link to post
meathumper 29 Posted October 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 All fixed just need to zero Quote Link to post
PJWmids 35 Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) Seals wear, it's a fact of life, they reckon you should replace all the seals annual, but I think you only need to if you notice a problem, and usually its the probe seal, I apply abbey sm50 to the pellet probe seal to keep it lubricated. You only need a small amount, I also put it on the pellet probe bolt side to keep it lubricated. Glad to hear your r10 is ready for action happy hunting.

meathumper 29 Posted October 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Right, went to zero and chrono. First two shots 12.50 - 12.49 ft lb. yes i know its over before someone starts jumping up and down.The next 18 shots were at 9.00 - 9.10ft lb, so did some dry shots to lower pressure in bottle. The next 20 shots were at 7.90 - 8.05ft lb. I think its chewing the pellet probe o ring.Any ideas would be appreciated Quote Link to post
PJWmids 35 Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Is the probe going in central? Have you pulled some cleaning wads through the barrel using a pull through kit? Quote Link to post
