Fabulous beater fwb 300s
bigdaver:
Got a scarred and freckled fwb 300s from Jim E, stripped, added all maccari parts and cleaned and lubed and wiped almost dry. Lapped a nice Leapers mount into a drooper, put a 12x bug buster on, and my first shot at 10 m was dead on with a centered scope. My other zero is around 35yds with Premier heavies, just the open tin I had handy. I’m hoping Jsb RS or HN Ft greens will be accurate and a little faster, but it is dead without a buzz right now, waiting for the weekend. I had a ratchet cocking problem, but I changed the sled pins and give it an extra tug at the end of the cocking stroke and that solved it. Hope to be a more accurate poster. If you have a non collector fwb, Maccari it!

Very cool!
You need to know that you can't post a brag thread without proper photographic evidence!
LOL :D

I am constantly telling people to buy even the unloved 300 guns. They are awesome!
Michael Loar:
Yep a Macarri Artic spring , new buffer and breech seal and a little lithium grease is all that needed to wake up a 300 into the low 650 fps range with 8.44 grain pellets and always superb accuracy from even the roughest looking of samples.

I’m still learning to make my pictures small enough!
