Stock in letting.

If all you need is a barrel scraper, You can get a grade eight washer and shape it to what ever size/shape you need, heat it to cherry red and quinch it in oil, polish it as bright as possible and put it in the oven 400 degrees for one hour. you will have a good scraper. Made many of them for different shape cuts.

Flubbed on my Foray with Burris XTR Signature Scope Rings

So you mounted these before but never shot with them, correct? As mentioned, the cant in your inserts might account for 1-2 MOA if that.

Lightly applying a lubricant to the Picatinny rail on the gun, the bottom of the ring bases, or the steel clamps that secure the ring base to the rail can help the ring slide into natural alignment rather than sticking as you tighten the base screws.

I install the ring bases to the gun. Place bottom inserts into the mounted rings, scope into those inserts. Adjust eye relief and rough level. Install the top inserts into the top of the ring caps and place them gently over the scope and press down toward the ring base. Use a methodical cross pattern for tightening while keeping an eye on levelness. It is tedious, but I’ve mounted dozens this way and have it down to a few minute process.

Last note that I’ve mentioned in other Burris ring threads, some rings are just poorly machined. Most of mine have been good, but I have a 30mm set that requires almost 15MOA of windage correction to center the scope. If you have the time and curiosity, try switching rings front to back or rotate each one 180 degrees in place and observe what happens to your point of impact. Good luck.

Got the rifle finished up while waiting for parts for another impulse buy. The new ARH spring got a delrin top hat made and I used the factory spring guide as it was about as close to a perfect fit as I would make myself. The steel washer with the factory guide was polished to a mirror finish, and burnished with some ARH moly. I also reused the factory piston seal , I didn’t see anything wrong with it although I found it to be a little tight before I sized it to my liking.
I mounted an Athlon 10 x 42 in the lowest rings I had available , still too high for a good cheek weld. A new lower set is in order. I just finished sighting in and tensioning the sled to where I found it to be most accurate. While also playing with the stock screw torque. At 35 yards shooting either the 10.3 or 8.4 JSB’s one ragged hole groups. I’m pretty happy with the way it shoots. The sled action is quite different to any other springer I’ve ever owned or shot. Once I put a ton of pellets through it I’ll see what I’m getting for velocity, I’m not chasing power on this one , just want a good solid performer with mild manners.
I did have to make quite the elevation adjustment on this scope . I’m thinking illl have to go with a droop mount to get it closer to optical center. Any suggestions on a good droop mount for a 30mm scope?

Looks like the part your needing and soild machined part ?

Too bad no pictures

Good luck
I think I need to figure out why this happened before replacing any parts. Need an xray to see how it looks locked up. Good to know that is the part though, just ordered some bits from ARH yesterday.

If you started now?

If you started from scratch now as far as airguns (but you know what you know), what would you do differently? I ask because of curiosity, and to tap into some of your experience. Thanks,
I would have gone directly to AirMaks Katran(s) for all my shooting needs. A Standard bottle.22(400mm) tuned low for rats & short range pest birds. A Long bottle .22(520mm)
for all around shooting & longer range pest birds . And last , a Long bottle HP .25 for groundhogs. AND a GX compressor ( liquid cooled) ! I have the .22 Long
bottle that I purchased a few years ago & a HP version ( UA moving sale , came last week) and a .25 Long BHP I got a few weeks ago( again, the UA sale). The
GX compressor is my main unit , w/ a ROVAIR backup( that puked & had to be rebuilt:() and I have two Hill handpumps , a MK4 ( original air source) & a MK5. The ROVAIR & a hand pump stay in the vehicle for field use , the GX4 is in the Man Cave, along w/ the old MK 4 pump. I try to pump a tube gun up everyday for some cardio( yeah ,I'm nuts!). I do have Stoegers Rangers & a Bullshark (tubes) that have done a good job for the $$. The Katrans are not complicated to adjust the hammer as are the Stoegers, this is ALL I want to mess with, other than a few tweaks on the trigger screws (6-8oz Katrans & 1~lb Stoegers). Oh , I did pick up a 90ci CF tank some time back for ?? just to have , used it twice , once for a friend & once for me. Honestly tanks aren't my thing. All scopes are 4x16 & 6x24 ,some FFP , but all $300-$450. I won't spend more for any glass except range-finding Binos.
