What springer did you shoot today?

Got to stretch the legs of the R1 this evening. Not bad for 40 yards behind the tripod with peeps. It’s 1” high at 25 and just a touch at 40. Good for the 6 o’clock hold with the peep and post. Just put a squirrel head on top and that fine record trigger does the rest….

I am still shooting this Feinwerkbau Model 65 every day. The shooting experience is like no other. l with any luck I will be able to say the same thing 10 years from now. I fully expect this recently rebuilt, high mileage beater to outlast me!

Nice. That does not look like standard 65 grips. I have two 65's, with sporter type grips and then a couple of 80's with the target grips. I have multiple so when my son and I get together we can have a good time.
 
Had some fun earlier today.

Still tempted every time I see yours to talk to Mr Ellingsworth about rebarreling one of my Turkish Tomahawks to .20, but betting I'll flinch and hard at the cost....lol. I know he did a lot more than that to yours though since I followed a couple of his videos on the build.
 
WOW nice grips , what brand ?
its a Baikal IZH MP46-M. Russian made single stroke 10m pistol. I think Air Venturi is importing them now under their brand? I’ve heard initially there were some that purchased the AV branded guns that had some issues. I never looked fully into it since I had the Baikal branded pistol with no issues. That’s been quite some time ago so those issues may have been worked out by now?
 
Got spring and Vortek seal for my LGU, tore it down 3 times yesterday! The Vortek 25mm seal wouldn’t hold the piston in the compression tube so I put the old one back. Anyway shooting today😃. Gun is super accurate and quiet.
When I received it it it was shooting 14.3 grs at 518fps now with the Diana 48 spring -3 coils it’s at 650fps.
