    That thing IS wickedly accurate, isn't it?... Nice shootin'!

    Fill adapter looks the same as the Disco ones I use other than the Disco adapter is a bit longer (two o-rings instead of one). Yours would allow for a bit more air volume - handy to have with a short tube. How long is the tube, btw?

    Correct me if I'm wrong- this one looks like it will stop water....
    LOL...Mine are the same. When I got my first one I thought the same thing so I put it up to my lips and blew through the Foster fitting....you can do it, but it's slooooooww!

    I agree 100% with you on the Benjamin gauge.... I just got one from Eric for my next project and I'm already liking it more than the the Disco gauge - and I haven't even had air in it yet!

    Never realized before that the 1701P had the bolt handle on the left...Nice!!


    Cheers,

    Nice shooting.

    Wondering if you're using the 7.0 gr or 8.2 gr Meisterkugeln? Need to order pellets fairly soon and would like add a tin of whatever you're using.

    Thanks,

    Al

    13 1/2"- 14" would be my best w.a.g... there ain't a lot there to begin with. I briefly considered removing the filter media for the volume gain, but I don't think it would make that much difference. I'm not too sure what holds the check rod back from the tube either- might be the filter?
