The tale of this Bobcat begins when Centercut (Mike) bought this rifle used in 2017. The rifle came with a soft case, 2 magazines and a Hawke Sidewinder scope. Mike used the rifle for hunting for about a year then he decided to shoot EBR in 2018. Mike shot the Bobcat in the Sportsman Class. Mike made it to the finals, but not the podium.
After EBR Mike upgraded the rifle adding a Huma Regulator and a titanium valve seat, which enabled Mike to lower the regulator 10 bar. The Bobcat was now making the same power as before, but working more efficiently.
Mike being the “flashy” guy he is, had the Bobcat Hydro dipped in the Terminator pattern.
The Bobcat then went to RMAC in 2019 where it had an issue in the second qualifying round so Mike and Terminator didn’t make the finals. Mike over the entire summer worked Terminator out mostly around 110 yards and shot EBR in 2019. All of Mike’s tinkering, practice, now paid off and he and Terminator came in first place in the Sportsman Class. Top of the Podium baby!!!!
After the 2019 EBR win, is when I met Mike and Terminator. We both were invited to go hunting in Temecula by @Gerry52 (Gerry) and Mike pulled out Terminator. I had never seen anything like it before. I was totally new to PCP rifles and seeing this stock in person was a sight.
I don’t think Mike missed a squirrel that day. We were shooting anywhere between 30-100 yards throughout the day. I know I didn’t try anything past 50 yards because I just wasn’t sure what these rifles could do.
Mike had won a new Red Wolf HP in 22 at EBR and said if he kept Terminator he would not give the Red Wolf a fair shake. A fellow EBR competitor had offered Mike an amount he couldn’t refuse and sold Terminator in late 2019 or early 2020.
So how did I end up with Terminator? Well February 4th 2023 I was on AGN and went to the classified section and saw Terminator there. “Deal of the Century” "Sold as Parts only"…..I knew the lineage of this rifle so I sent Mike a text, but hell I couldn’t wait for a reply and sent a PM saying I would take it. Yeah baby first in line!!! I sent out the money as fast as I could.
Then of course I told Mike, Terminator was back in the fold of Team Centercut.
I totally took the rifle apart, finding stripped parts here and there in the receiver and a bunch of bad seals.
It appeared Terminator possibly had been neglected/not used over the years. Well $42.00 later and a 2 month wait for parts from FX USA, Terminator is now holding air. Tuning and full assembly will start in a few days to see how I did.
Can't wait to see if I put it back together right and to get it shooting groups in the next few days.
