Title: Feinwerkbau 300s Junior / Mini
Post by: Jason_Garvin on February 22, 2020, 08:48:32 PM
Rather nice day here, slightly windy, but nice enough to get the ol mini out.  I needed to tweak the trigger a little anyway.  I have it set with a nice short first stage, hits a wall, tad pressure more and then pellet gone.  I looked for years for a new or mint mini, never found one.  Ended up buying a club gun, and done a full restore if you will.  No corners cut on this end.  And wrapped up many months in it, but it was worth it.

We had about a 10-15 mph crosswind in gusts today, but that doesn't stop me.  I shot probably 150 pellets today out the shop window standing, picked a leaf about 25 yds out, and snapped a 5 shot group.  Then commenced to shooting the rat, and as I hoped, it works perfect for these lower power rifles.

I have convinced myself I could get down to just my FWB rifles and be happy.  There is just something about these old warbirds?

Jason, that rifle is stunning!  Very nice work... and shooting! 

I'd love to get a nice 300S at some point.  I always have my eyes out, but the good ones seem to usually be priced out of my price range.

Beautiful.  You must feel a lot of pride and satisfaction seeing beneath the dirt, pitting and wear and bringing an old shooter back to its former glory.  Nice job!
