Adjusting the power on the BSA R10 Mk2

Here's a look at how to increase or decrease the power of the BSA R10. Always make sure that you use a chronograph regularly to make sure that you stay within any legal limits. This is an easy job to do. All you will need is a 4mm Alan wrench to undo the stock and if the end cap doesn't come off by hand you will need to heat it with a blow torch or similar to melt the glue or Loctite that holds it in place. Be careful with any heat source. You will also need a wide blade screw driver or chisel to make the adjustments, or something to turn the adjuster for the hammer spring.

    Use a hair dryer and a pair of grips carefully and can be done in less than 5 mins, brilliant video

    The gun you are using to demonstrate this adjustment is sub 12ftlb or FAC?

    Nicely done. But can you tell me how do I know if the cap is glued or if it has grooves on it. Secondly which glue should I use to stick it back because loctite is not available in country I live in

    Approximately how many full turns clockwise to go from 11.00 to 11.6 would you suggest? Thanks

    Nicely explained. If I screw the cap back without any glue does any air leak from this cap while firing?

    I felt my R10 (purchased September 2020) was shooting somewhat low in power, at least compared to what I've seen on KZread reviews. After watching your video I got the courage to attempt to adjust the hammer spring and I was surprised to find that not only was the end cap NOT glued in place, but it was so loose it was ready to fall off. What do you make of this? Was the factory adjustment skipped on my rifle?? Your thoughts........

    i could not for the life of me get the cap of and it was glued on real good, tried heating, prizing, grips, rubber gloves, me twisting and a friend turning. ended up damadging the paint work around the cap. ultimately i sent it to ratworks and it came back was easy to remove

    What’s the highest you could probably tune it to? Just out of curiosity?

    I have the Rat works edition R10 and I’ve applied for my air gun FAC spoke to Phil and he says not a good idea to up the power on the gun saying it will take away what’s good for the gun

    Increased spring tension but no increase in ft per second. Must have to do the Reg also assume. Mine is getting 670 ft per second.
