Rabid 1,936 Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 Hey Jon, Yeah I have been well into my s10's since they first came out, was my second rifle I ever bought. I have all the seals, regs, reg parts, you name it, piss easy to work on, strip, service tune, is basic engineering really. I only use Fb for the groups, my actual profile is shut down so to speak, didn't want any skeletons jumping out on me either ! Ps, Tim spoke well of you today 2 Quote Link to post

I think these rifles are brilliant - like you said, no plasticy bits and, solid. It'd be nice to know that I know how to work on it. ...... I'll give you a shout when I'm feeling brave enough to go for it Atb 1 Quote Link to post

Jonjon79 13,358 Posted February 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 We popped down to my favourite gun shop yesterday - little 'uns Goldstar needs looking at because it's giving some erratic readings over a couple of chronos But, to be fair, even though it's out of warranty, Paul at Wiltshire Shooting Centre and BSA have both said they'll sort it free of charge - top class service Anyway, I've settled on FTTs for the Super 10 so, I picked up a couple of tins while I was there. Straight away I saw a difference - the ones that I had been testing were very clean and shiny - the new ones were a lot more grey and dirty. The originals cycled easily, these new ones felt like they were giving a bit of resistance I've recently put a different scope on the Super 10 so, I had a quick zeroing session this morning. The new FTTs were still accurate, I just didn't like how they cycled. Also, they left a bit of dirt around the impact hole...... 1 Quote Link to post
Jonjon79 13,358 Posted February 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Someone recently gave me some Napier Power Pellet lube. I tried this once ages ago and it opened my groups right up (different rifle and pellet) so, I wrote it off as BS. Anyway, after thinking about, I lubed a few of the new FTTs. Straight away they cycled smoother and, without touching the windage and elevation, they shifted the point of impact to just above my point of aim and gave a very tight group I'm out ratting tonight - I reckon this combo is going to be devastating 3 Quote Link to post
Jonjon79 13,358 Posted February 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Also, just for fun, I did the 'bit o' wood impact test' between the FTTs and FTT Greens...... ..... 25yrds into a piece of damp pallet wood. The Greens make a loud knock on impact but, the FTTs definitely penetrate better I may come back to the Greens for some more testing one day but, for now, the normal FTTs are looking very good so, I want to learn how they perform and generally get a feel for what they're capable of.
