Brocock Bantam Sniper HR

I wanted a larger bolt handle for my Sniper HR so I made a blueprint and made a larger one. Fits my larger hands better and makes bolt easier to cycle.

Beautiful! If I had a Sniper, I would want to have one of your bolt handles!

The rubber O-rings are a really nice touch.

Thank’s, I was also able to correct the slow Huma Regulator response time by increasing reg pressure to 145 bar.

Now I can rapid fire without any loss in accuracy.

does the bolt handle just screw on the bantams 

 

[bzizzi373]

Yes, 3mm Allen key in end of handle. Make sure post does not fall out, hold post, remove screw and pull screw from handle. Replace screw into post.

Absolutely beautiful piece of machining work! I would bet that a lot of guys with bolt action air rifles would love to have one of those...even powder burners! Why not put one on Ebay and see what kind of response you get?

Best of luck, Chuck

Thats awesome work! Ive been debating on doing this to my CZ .22lr.

Did you adjust the hammer spring after increasing the regulator pressure?

 

[bzizzi373]

Yes I did, I also noticed that the the gun is a little harder to cock as hammer tension is increased like any other PCP except for the Daystate MCT line.To help smooth out the cocking of Bantam I lubricated bolt mechanism with moly and this made a huge difference. From the factory bolt hardly had any lube at all. I tried several different lubricants but moly worked the best along with larger bolt handle.

Did a shot count with Brocock Sniper, from a 240 bar fill and shooting JSB Exact 15.9 gr pellets @920 FPS I was able to get 95 really good shots before falling off the regulator. I could have easily pushed it to 100 shots but regulator pressure started to drop down from the the set 145 bar.
