Hi Guys, Tried something a bit different today. Tommy and Ed knew this was coming - I shot a 30yd Challenge Card from the Field Target (Hunter Class) position to see what I could do. I am including a picture (below) of me in the shooting position. We are allowed to use shooting sticks and a...

FYI, You can get a Walnut stock for a Crown MK II from Europe Airguns for 385 Euros. I didn't look at the shipping or import cost. Cheers, Greg

Hi, I bought the Match Trigger from Huma a couple of years ago with the intent of installing in my Crown Mk II. The lack of instructions and anyone who seemed to know how to tune it put me off - so thank you for pointing out the video and taking a dive into this. I do have two questions...

Hi, I have the CF barrel tube so I can fill to 250bar. With that, at my current tune, I am getting around 90 shots before falling off the regulator. I have the reg set at 110 bar. This has been one of the areas I have spent a lot of time working on. The DRS is really intended for higher...

Hi Cavedweller, Being an old guy with a metal knee and hip I cannot get down to kneel for the forced position lanes. So I shoot those offhand - my most significant weakness. So I also have been looking into a lighter rig to see if it will help me shoot those lanes better. My regular...

Congratrs! It is an awesome feeling when you shoot that last bull and you see it strike the 10 or x, knowing that gives you the ever elusive 200. It is also a testiment to your determination and competativeness that you have stuck to it and achieved the result. I wish I could say that it...

Hi Guys, After another 3-day mini Nor'easter I was finally able to "put some lead downrange". Shot 4 cards with three rifles today. All were pretty good but only 1 for the Leaderboard! 30 yd Masters 200-17X FX Crown Mk II (Nordic Wolf) with 500mm barrel in .22 AEA 18.3 gr pellets @ 879...

Hi, An interesting string of comments set off by your question. But to really help you out it would be extremely useful for you to tell us something about your rifle and what pellets you are looking to shoot at what range. There is an extensive knowledge base on Crowns in this forum as many...

Hey Again, After two days of rain I finally got a chance to continue working with the DRS. This time shot a 30 yd Challenge Card For the Leader Board ***** 30 Yd Challange 198-14x with the FX DRS Classic 500mm .177 ****** While it was raining I played musical scopes with my rifles. The...

Hi Guys, It's been a while since I could post a new leaderboard submission. I can maybe blame the wind (which keeps blowing 5-10mph or more) or the humidity or... The reality is that I am also likely contributing to my lack of success by not being consistent in my holds and trigger work. At...

Hi bchannell, Depending on the original caliber and barrel length, your new Crown Mk II could have come with two different hammer systems. The difference is in the spring carrier and whether or not an additional hammer weight was included. Be aware that the stock hammer (Part # 19039...

Hi Bobbybeef, My experience with several Crowns has been that you need to tighten up the Liner nut (part 11 in the figure below) pretty much as tight as you can get it. I believe the folks above talking about "Liner Nuts" needing to be barely tight are not referring to the Superlight Barrel...

Great shooting - it's not the arrows, it's the .... . Cheers, Greg

Athlon Heras SPR 6-24x56 FFP APRS9 reticle, FFP, IR, Mil less than 1 yr old in excellent condition. Selling because I wanted this for my backup Hunter Class FT rifle. After several tries in matches have decided that I would be happier with the SFP, MOA version of this scope. This scope is...

Sorry for the confusion. If you are only buying one rifle and FT is just one of several things you want to do with it (pesting, hunting, etc) then maybe a .22 is better. If FT is the most important and the other things are not as important, then get a .177. I have two.177 rifles (a primary...
