Keep working on her David..:) She will give in someday..hehe For sure she is beautiful. Now I am not so mad at your for selling your TX with the beautiful stock..:) Sure would be nice if you could bring her tomorrow to lunch so I could see what she looks like in person.:) Is that the Simmons White Tail Scope she is sporting?

Thanks for sharing David

Yep(WTC) and thanks Guys and Gals

Yep, It's the WTC Mildot 6.5x20x50. One of the clearest brightest scopes for the money I've looked through . I keep asking others about ranging abilities of their higher powered and higher costs scopes and they have the same problems sometimes that I do with these . And that is ranging between 45-50 yards . If I take my time and check , look away ten recheck ; it gets pretty close most of the time. I just can't see paying $500 or more for a scope that's not going to perform any better than the one I have . I'm not sure it could help my scores much. My ability to hold on targets would be a more important factor at this time. Gene , I'll skid her in a soft case and try to park around toward the back and let you check her out if the coast is clear . LOL If you know what I mean . hehe . Pulling any kind of rifle out of a case can get you in trouble in a lot of places . Stephanie , I enjoyed shooting my springers , but I love shooting my PCP's . The dark side is very attractive ........... BEWARE !! LOL kirby :D

That is a sweet gun.  I just received my AA S410 last Friday.  These are beautiful guns, not to mention accurate.  I was able to get some really great groups out to 60 yards (that was the farthest I tried), which I wasn't able to do with my CFX.  How many shots can you get with the carbine?  I get around 30 when filled to 2900 psi and set to full power.  Anyways, excellent choice.

Shots
« Reply #9 on: March 05, 2008, 01:55:18 PM »
Congrats on your 410 ; they are sweet . You need to post us a picture . I filled mine today to around 160-165 bar . I need to get my tank topped off ; That's all the pressure I could get . Shooting JSB 8.4's ; I got 53 shots that ranged from a low of 795fps to 820 fps  and then the speed started to drop pretty quick with each shot.  My other carbine I usually fill to 190 bar and will get  65-70 shots . kirby

Wow, that's more than I expected with the carbine b/c of it's smaller tank.  I was told 30-40 shots at high power with my 410.  Does that sound right?  I dont have a chrony so I haven't been able to really find out.  I mostly shoot CP's @ 14.4 grains.

fac ( firearms certificate) comes from the regulation in British Isles,  that keeps airguns shooting at under 12 foot pounds of energy (fpe)at the muzzle, hence, fpe = measurement of energy. An fac-rated airgun is non -regulated in fpe, but requires a special permit to own one there, much like the firearms tax stamp here in the US for automatic weapons and MuzzleBrakes(sorry).
