I got my 52 back from John yesterday. It was raining, oh well I say just shoot from under the porch. I was so excited I did not even put the scope back on yet. First shot scared the crap out of me. I did not expect it to shoot with such so soon. Wow what a difference a tune makes. Mounted the scope and made sure everything was plumb.
Fast forward to this morning. Gotta get breakfast with the little lady and get her off to do some shopping. Finally I can get outside and see how nice it shoots. I sight in my scope about 2 inches low at 10 yards and spot on at 30. That is where I do most of my shooting. I was using JSB exacts 14.3 grain and hitting exactly where I was aiming. Weird I thought there is only one hole. Upon further inspection I was pretty much hitting in the same spot time after time.
Hits where I aim, weird, not used to that. I have figured out where to aim my Predator poly mags and my Silver Stings. Gotta use them up before I buy more JSB's.
This is my official THANK YOU to John. I have to admit I was looking at my e-mail way to much waiting for the numerous reports he sends on the progress of my rifle. I also want to thank all of you for steering me in his direction. One of the best choices I have ever made. I will try to get my picture added in a minute.
John tuned my 34 and it was raining the day I got it, had to shoot inside
set everything for an inside session and the first shot went into the drywall next to the trap, HOLLY SHEET
he worked on that trigger where it has a long 1st stage and then ounces on the 2nd and the air guns goes off
it took me a while to shoot it to figure out the trigger but it is crystal crisp, before it was like pulling lbs. in the trigger now it is ounces
by the way that 34 went from 635 fps stock w/14.3 CP's to 700 and then with more work by John to 720 that is an 85 fps increase with a smooth firing cycle and accurate
warren
PS: if John ever works on your trigger and you are shooting inside for the first time, buy drywall compound just in case LOL
and remember "it's 30% the gun and 70% the shooter"
