Multiply that by 60!
800 * 60 * 12/17.7
= 32,542 rpm in .177
Roughly 24,000 rpm in .22
Bloody fast!
Its actually 1 in 450mm being bloody European, so yes 17.7inch, I was being lazy

Re: Dialing for elevation.
I thought that might generate more discussion but I would have thought hold-over is a more used technique in vermin hunting where by the time you’ve faffed around with focussing your 30x and consulted the chart the rat has beggered off.

Re: Dialing for elevation.
Its been 20 years but I used elevation clicks and a table taped to the stock. Table generated on the sighting range. Using a big scope on max magnification allowed range finding by focus.

Re: Changing left hand bolt to right hand?
Yes. The handle arm and the boss have separate part numbers. The screw passes thru a hole in the arm so you can swivel it 180.
I used green Loctite on truck engine roller conveyor sprockets in 1980 in place of keyways and grub screws. Its an engineering adhesive.

Re: Changing left hand bolt to right hand?
The standard AA factory alloy bolt handle comes in two pieces and can be assembled either way round.

Re: Removed the brass firing pot.
My 6ftlb MPR doesn't have the extension . I’ve never got to dismantle it and they’re so rare there’s no images online either.

Re: Removed the brass firing pot.
What did you do with the valve spring S306?
If there wasn't one and you have no reg fitted then that may have been the problem.

Re: New Arrival
Take some cut up bits of coke can to shim up the scope at the back if you still can’t get the elevation. You will need to take care tightening up.
