Tuning Brocock compato Caliber change

[Raden1942]

Has anyone done a Caliber conversion on the brocock compato? I'm getting a 177 soon and was hoping to change it to 22. If it's just a mag and a barrel and a transfer port I'm thinking of doing it. If I need a new valve or boring out anything I don't want to go down that road. Any advice would be appreciated thanks dudes.

Honestly, I don't think I would do it. I think the money you'll spend to make the conversion would be at least a 1/3 to 1/2 the price of a new one. I would just keep the one your getting, whether it is used or new, in .177 and then just buy the .22 version if that's what you want.

I was in the same boat trying to change caliber on a BSA. Ended up getting a bunch of FX guns instead.

OK that's what I was afraid of. Thanks guys. I found one in 177 for 400 but it's not my favorite Caliber since I hunt alot. Good price tho.

I don't get the answers here. I do a LOT of cal. changes on many guns. All that is needed is mag, probe, barrel and open the ports a bit. not that expensive what so ever. I make my own probes. 

Next project is the Uragan. From .25 to .22 and later to .30. 

Barrel, what, 120 bucks? mag, 100 or so, probe, 25 bucks and if a machinist is needed for the barrel turning, another 100 to 150 bucks. So 345 to 395 max. How is this half the cost of the gun?
