Well done Stephanie. It is my Steyr LG110 FT. This is going to be my 12fpe FT rig.I got the FAC version in case I didn't want to shoot at low power. It gives me options this way.  I put a couple shots over the chrony and she was doing 995fps, 998fps, 1000fps, 1000.1fps. She needed to be tamed so I adjusted her to 795fps and she stayed there with a couple decimal points spread between shots. Pellets were Air Arms Field Diablos at 8,4gr according to my powder scale.

There is always an excuse. My favorite is the trigger jerk excuse. (the jerk behind the trigger). HAHA

I just transfered the Leapers 8-32X56 I had on my Typhoon onto it. Great match up. Funny thing is the gun is so short that the scope is only just smaller than the gun.

We are lucky in NZ we have a great dealer who imports the Steyr FT rifles now. A really great guy, salt of the earth, never met a nicer guy in my life. (reading this Alex?)

Gee Andre,...........I wish I had one just like that!!!!!!

LOL GS

Just Sooooooooo excited....

My Steyr arrived on Friday afternoon. Andre was kind enough to pick it up from the agent and drivew it down to me. (its 6 hours drive from his place to mine) I had one hour to put the new Leapers 8-32 x 56 on it and find some sort of zero. (found 40m and that was good enough)

Well next morning was the final National series round of FT for the year. I had shot a couple of events with a springer with mixed results, but always enjoyed the company. So long story = short, I took my place on the line with Andre as we were squadded together and we had a fun day. He was helping me all the way.......lol.

What a rifle!!

Actuallynot so mucha rifle,......morelike an epiphany!.....
