I received my 12fpe TM1000 (.177 cal) barrelled action (left hand) end of December. I was very eager to get this rifle competition ready – will compete with it in the Light Varmint Class at the World Cup in August (Czech Republic).
I made a dedicated benchrest stock from Cherry Wood (stock design and weight of the wood to meet the LV limit). I laminated 5 x 15mm thick pieces of wood for maximum stability and painted the final product. Set the regulator pressure at 90bar and balanced the hammer spring tension to this setting. Lastly set the trigger to my liking.
The attached target was shot outdoors in good conditions (not perfect but good). The high x count gave me the most pleasure - I am convinced this rifle will shoot full scores and even higher x count in perfect conditions.
Am I happy? ........... EXTREMELY, I have a smile on my face every time I squeeze the trigger – in my opinion you can’t ask for more than that.
