New Benchrest Gun Finished Just a day setting up now

Very nice Graham, some medals in that
Anything special done ? Or is it top secret

 

top secret
it has a 177 air polygon barrel
custom stock Tulip wood
custom trigger
some anodizing
Tier One scope rings
T36 scope with a 4x on the end
lot of time

 

what's an air polygon barrel?

 

its a barrel that has not had rifling cut down it
polygon is rifling that has been hammered from out side no cutting

 

ok i get it - a polygon barrel for 'air rifles. I was starting to think 'air' polygon was something new!

 

it is new the Air polygon is different from a normal polygon barrel the turn ratio is different for the air version

 

sounds interesting, Lothar Walther i'm assuming?

 

Lothar Walther have to tell them that you shooting 25m so they can sort out the turn ratio

 

cheers, may give the polygon barrel a go one day!

 

you would be welcome maybe this year

 

Have you had chance to see how it performs yet ?
Sounds very interesting , look forward to hearing how it shoots.

 

testing it this weekend I hope

 

hope she goes well after all your work! All the best for the weekend.

 

thanks I let you know

 

setup and shoot some test cards wow
I have a picture 5 shoots one hole inside
looking forward to the next comp

 

looking good!

 

Looks like a winner Graham

 

Nice!!!!

 

Bumping this thread up to see how the rifle has been working out.

I'm interested in the air polygon barrel as I have an FX Streamline with a STX barrel.

I bought the rifle to see how a slower twist rate and smooth twist barrel compared with my other rifles, it is good, but not good enough to displace my other rifles. I am going to see how the FX performs in BR, hence the question.
