NV123 BSA Ultra SE. Stuck Pellets & Won't Cock
Note to UA-cam, there is no assembly, abuse or selling of firearms in this video. No reason to demonetise it and no reason to age restrict it.
Anyway, back to the video. The moral of the story, try not to get multiple pellets stuck in your barrel.
Sorry to do the CMOA bit, but I take no responsibility for any damage as a result of copying this video.
Good luck.

Well that was a shock. My HW98 decided it identifies as an unregistered firearm so that needed sorting out. Enter a Tin Bum Tuning Kit with short stroke. Will it fit, will it work? Will it ruin my favourite airgun? Some of these questions may be answered, probably in the comments before I have a chance to film part 2.

You're playing with fire making these videos. You are shooting an unregistered firearm for everyone to see. It doesn't matter that you are trying to reduce its power. The police don't care what caused it to be over the limit, all they care about is you have a firearm and it carries a five year jail sentence. I've worked on air rifles for fifty years and I'm telling you for your own good, give it to someone that knows what he's doing or don't advertise the fact you have a firearm.
You've got a firearm and just told everyone on the internet. As it is now a firearm. You aren't allowed to work on it. Try practicing what you preach 😮
Actually I believe I demonstrated what every responsible airgun owner should do, which is keep an eye on your airguns lest they stray over the limit and resolve accordingly. If airgun owners can't test and/or fix it themselves then they should take it to someone that can. My point was that it isn't cool or funny to tune your airguns up over the limit. But anyway, thank you for watching and thank you for commenting.
@@nickvending9688 Actually what you have demonstrated is your complete and utter lack of respect for the law. You have very clearly admitted that you are the owner of a firearm and shot it. There is no leniency for ignorance. You are lecturing people on the legality of air weapons in the UK while working on a firearm. It's against the law to handle a firearm without a licence. Don't take my word for it, ring firearms and ask them if you feel so confident enough.
Superb instructional video. Thanks!
Thank you for watching and commenting, glad the video was helpful.
Giraffe 2 years late. I bought an SMK PR900W in 2019 but have hardly used it. I do like it though. Even if it had been available I wouldn't have bought a Diana Stormrider the additional 20 odd quid would have been the reason though. There are as you commented quite a few budget PCP air rifles which are obviously based on the SMK Victory/Artemis platform. I personally don't much like plastic stocks but they do have their uses particularly in tropical environments (I used to live in Queensland) and had several polymer stocked rifles in .223, 7.62x39, .308 Winchester (all Wetherby) and 7.62x54 R Stockman (my companies own brand) for various applications. My .460 Wetherby had a wooden stock and was far too pretty to take out often and then only for Buffalo. Now I am back in the UK and stuck with sub 12ft lb air rifles. 😭
Hey, better late than never! Please check out the budget PCP series for what can be done with a PR900W, I love mine although like you I don't use it much. What were the Wetherbys like? I believe they are made by Howa? I'll have to research Stockman, I've not heard of them, interesting that they made a 7.62x54R Could you apply for a UK firearms licence? Don't be put off by the scaremongering, it takes time but we'll worth it.
Thanks for the informative and witty commentary. I did in fact discover you can change the front sight without removing the barrel extension. Just removing the screws allows the release and replacement of the front sight. Tighten up, job done!
Hello, thank you for watching and thank you for commenting. I should have tried that, but I was curious to see what was under there!
That’s the engineer coming out! I work in an office and so happy for the least effort! Still great to watch you at work.
Work smart, not hard 👍🏻 Thank you, much appreciated.
Do you know why it was designed that way?Cause it would German people air at quarter learn to. Use you left hand that's why it's built that way
Hello, sorry I'm not following you. Use my left hand for what? Many thanks
Oh what I wouldn't do for a Sten Gun.
They do have that certain something for sure.
I wold have kept it as is its beautiful 😂
Ha ha.
I remember an article in one of the airgun mags a long time ago where the Venom tuning guy was showing how to remove coils. He cut the coil and then flattened it using a blow torch and then dunked it in water to quench it. This then creates very hard, but brittle steel, so he finally grinds it flat and the heat from the grinding turns the steel blue which indicates its been tempered back to spring steel. I did the same when I was sorting my brothers HW98 and it worked a treat. I cut it a little shorter than I needed and used PTFE shim washers to add back some preload for easier adjustment in future.
Hello, thank you for the information, very much appreciated. I prefer to use old engine oil in place of water. But ideally I don't want to modify another spring after this farce. My patience wears a bit thin when working on airguns, I get it not working first time, or second, or third but this really took the proverbial.
That is the correct way of doing it. Just collapsing the spring is basically the same as putting a stack of washers at the back of it. You should always cut the spring and collapse the last coil. Using square section springs are better because they don't suffer with spring twang as the round springs do.
My ultimate sporter in. 177, is one of the most lest pellet fussy rifles i own, 😁👍
They really are good bits of kit, I wouldn't be without mine.
@@nickvending9688 yep totally agree, I've had mine for about 2 years its going nowhere, never touched it , so reliable and accurate, thanks for your review, 😁👍
complete idiot this so-called review is what I’d expect a layman to say, everyone including people never actually seen a toy ‘gun’ somehow becomes an expert, evidently in the so-called ‘review’,
Iv just finished customising mine on my channel, take a look please it looks amazing now and shoots better.
What a coincidence. Got my old BSA Scorpion FT gun out yesterday for a bit of 10m paper punching. As I eased the Finale Match Light pellet into the breech it came to a sudden stop. Ten minutes later, after much gentle knocking on the end of my cleaning rod, out of the breech popped three deformed pellets. My son was the last person to use the gun, and he'll get a piece of my mind next time he comes over. Still, no harm done, the rifle shot just as well as it always does once the blockage was removed 🙂
Hello, thank you for your comment and thank you for watching. Glad to hear there was no damage done. Guess he thought he was an amazing shot, with the last 3 pellets through the same hole? What is the Scorpion FT like? I hadn't heard of that model.
@@nickvending9688 Long story. Friend of mine asked me if I'd like to join him at a local FT club. Not having too much cash on hand at the time I had to go the economy route. My old Mk1 Scorpion got a used Ginb skeleton stock, with a UK Neil butt hook and silencer cum barrel weight cum air stripper. It is a super accurate air rifle which had been previously tweaked by UK Neil. To finish the rig I bought a battered but functional Big Nikko scope for not too much money on the BBS and job done for a rookie FT shooter. If you get a good BSA barrel the accuracy is astounding and can keep up with much more expensive kit. Shame they sold out to Gamo.
Sounds like a great bit of kit. I'm all for building using rifles I've already got, at least they are known good rather than risking buying something new. Agreed about BSA barrels and yes their spring guns have certainly suffered since the Gamo ownership.
Short Stroker.. That's what she said.😂
Is this the regulated version or gen1 (like I have ). Also what barrel bands are those please (forgive me if that’s a daft question )
Hello It's a Gen1, unregulated. The bands are the standard rear sight mount / barrel band that the rifle comes with, these can be purchased from a spares supplier. Pretty sure there is a link in the video description.
@@nickvending9688 thanks nick . Impressed with what you’ve done with it , still going through the videos
Thank you, but I can't take credit for this rifle. A friend built it. However I do now own it, sadly less the sights. Thank you for watching the videos, very much appreciated.
@@nickvending9688 I’ve striped mine down this morning and added a budget bipod and strap . I tested with a budget chronograph yesterday and noticed the ftlbs drop off within 18 shots from 783-745 (each shot dropping a bit ) however taking her to pieces I realised she is infact a gen 2 with the stock regulator . New seal kit coming as something is a miss
Yes that really doesn't sound right. How is the accuracy over 20 shots and does it noticeably drop?
BSA?…f…gamo
That's true, Gamo own BSA. However the BSA PCPs are still made in the UK. I believe BSA are now making their own break barrel airguns too.
Great video. Love the humour!
Thank you, very much appreciated.
What a mess of a rifle!!
It really is.
I’ve got 2 T10’s and think they are great and always fancied the little Ultra. Glad to see you’ve saved one. I’d be tempted to offer the owner a deal and turn it into a restoration project and share on here? Hop it shoots well?
I've got enough airguns already. To be honest, I'm trying to reduce my collection.
Musta been a hella windy day when they fired a whole mag and didn't hit the target once. 😂
Sorprendente ...que mal cuidada.. Un cordial Saludo
Sí, es bastante vergonzoso. Espero que te encuentres bien.
If this were a dog I'd call the RSPCA 😅 I think you need to take that off whoever owns it.
Yep, agreed.
What a shame! .... However I have several BSA rifles that use the same magazine... Nothing but trouble.
It really was a pity, some people shouldn't have nice things. What is the issue with the magazine?
Hawke 2-7 32mm vs Hawke 3-9 40mm Vantage on the HW99s? Which do you advise / prefer?
It would be the 3-9x40, but make sure it has AO. I use 3-9x40 on most rifles, even on centre-fires out to 100m. Another contender would be the Richter Optik 3-9x42 AO, I actually prefer them to the equivalent Hawke entry-level scopes. Whichever you buy, AO or side focus is a must.
@@nickvending9688 thanks a lot
Build quality on mine was poor and screws loose all over the scope, which regularly fall out! First, and last, cheap rifle I've ever bought. I stick to quality springers like Air Arms.
Getting a gas ram was an itch I wanted to scratch, wish I could have afforded an HW90. The rifle came good eventually, but yes buying budget airguns can be a false economy.
Less is more bum slide
We'll just leave that one there 😉
Splendid
Thank you.
Iv got one Iv tuned and customised it, I’ll put it on my UA-cam channel soon. It made a big difference.
Sounds good, I've subscribed. Look forward to seeing what you've done to it.
Too much waffle in the voice over.
You're too kind, thank you. Sadly the intro was necessary. I prefer to just get on with it, however I had to put that intro in due to some rather odd comments where I was accused of encouraging people to take their airguns over the UK limit... Hopefully, I've sufficiently done my civic duty so future videos can just feature the necessary info with the usual smattering of smut.
So, you add some washers to 10 mm screw and you get what you already had: a screw that matches the original. Waste of time, money and nerves.
Not quite the same length. The adjustment was ridiculously sensitive.
Dont use grsss not good just a little lithium past on the seal .
Hello, hope all is well. I switched to lithium for the HW98 rebuild. I didn't get any dieseling with my old grease, nor did it attract dirt.
Where do you buy the barrel adapter from
Hello, I measured the barrel using a vernier and then bought a suitable adapter from eBay.
Hola Nick ..haces de todo . Recibe un fuerte Abrazo
Hola antonio Intento cubrir muchos oficios diferentes para intentar atraer a más espectadores. Además, me ahorra dinero si lo hago yo mismo. Espero que estés bien, todo lo mejor.
People think by shorting the spring is less power . Is not it make gun shut faster and more jumpey .
Hopefully this video shows it's better to buy a decent kit from the off rather than trying to modify over power springs to work. The gun actually shoots quite well, but I'm not happy with it and will be rebuilding it soon with a better (at present secret) spring.
2:17 Lol.
Every single time I'm filming... I'm sure a professional would put the phone on DND, I'll learn eventually.
Not a fan of short stroking these imo they don’t need it For what been spent you could of had the piston glided by a proper tuner with guides to match the original spring 👍🏻 Nice clear video and good to mention about power levels 😊
Yep, I agree with you fully. These kits had a lot of recommendations in the comments on other videos, so I wanted to see what the fuss was all about. As I'm sure you can tell, I can't see what the fuss is all about... Still, at least it is legal now, albeit extremely legal.
Was wondering what that was all about as i scrolled the comments! Anyway, Giraffe 😂
Ha ha, yes it was meant to confuse and intrigue. Sadly the number of giraffes doesn't match the number of views, so I must have waffled on for too long.
But thank you for watching and for commenting, much appreciated 👍🏻
Really good video shame it looked better than what it shot I'm not a great fan of co2 anymore I like the stuff Beenan make p17 and GW Hand guns pneumatic as these have been going see ecades longer than co2 it just runs very cold and freezes everything in its path
It was a shame. I did get a replacement which works fine, but being honest it doesn't blow me away. I like the Gamo single stroke pneumatic pistols. I would like a go with the Beeman and it's Weihrauch twin to see why there is the price difference or are they just the same pistol.
The island of Jersey....or Guernsey😊
Good guess, but sadly not correct.
Looks like porthmeor beach at St.Ives?
I'll let a few more folk comment, but you may well be correct 👍🏻
Gen 2 of this gun mucho better
Yes, I believe so. It's a shame this one was faulty.
Guys a totally fud, what a cringe 😬
I'm trying to work out how that sentence is supposed to make any sense. Bless your heart for trying.
Please what is the name of this thing you use to disassemble the gun? Where does it come from
Hello, the name is: Irwin Quick-Grip Heavy Duty One-Handed Bar Clamp/Spreader I bought mine from Screwfix, most DIY stores sell them. Measure the length you need and buy the clamp that's a bit longer. I only recommend the heavy duty irwin clamps, I've had other brands shatter which really wasn't helpful.
Hi nick what chronograph do you use .? My combro went a little bat shit today giving readings all over the place , outside in the shade 😫 more frustration, tia
Mine is a Chrony F1. It needs incandescent lights over the diffusers, LED lights made it constantly error due to the flicker.
@nickvending9688 I thought LEDs were OK it was the florescent that flickerd ? Asking because my cheap chronographs are not reading the same maybe is the leds in my garage 🤔
It seems to be both, I have to use additional lights in my garage (fluorescent) and workshop (LED).
@nickvending9688 I have the same one min it's consistent then it goes to shit , I had h&n ftt 14.66g 5.55mm head size pellets running between 601 fps 11.76 fpe to 614 fps 12.28 fpe ( a little hot I know ) but I the tried jsb 15.89g pellets and it jumped to 13.30 fpe , I've just removed a small slip washer and the ftt are down to around 10.3 fpe I'm beyond frustrated 😠 also I'm using a combro mk4 so I'm also convinced the slight recoil is giving a false reading as it's attached to the barrel idk 🤷♂️
@peterconnor4193 I've noticed sudden jumps with mine but it is then repeated when shooting the rifle and usually due to burning off grease giving sudden hot shots. I'm not struck on the barrel mounted chronographs, I feel the recoil will falsely increase power but must confess I haven't done a side by side comparison.
How did things go with your replacement? I've just got it's Beretta sister and have been loving it so far, they seem to be maybe copies of Umarex's pistols and while I've not the funds to risk it I'd be intrigued if the Mags interchange. Are you shooting right handed here? I get it aswell but it could be possible you've got a touch of the Gorilla grip when pulling the trigger, Right handed shooters go to the right and lefties to the left (Im ambidextrous so manage it both ways lol), try and conciously make your trigger pull more gentle and you might see it straighten a bit although anything smoothbore as you probably know gets a mind of its own.
Hello, thank you for your comment much appreciated. The replacement works well, but must admit I haven't used it a lot and I haven't really bonded with it. It is mostly used as a static display piece. Thank you for the tip with trigger pull, I'll give it a go.
Just re watched your video , i spent yesterday in my garage here in florida absolutely covered in sweat, my latest project is my 1987 diana 52 .22 , it was originally around 22fpe , i shortened the spring not to long ago and had it running between 18-20fpe and it was shooting really nice , in the not to distant future we are moving back to the uk , i have spent a considerable amount of money and a whole lot of time getting my air rifles sub 12fpe, the 12fpe law has become a major pima , 😢, instead of buying another $100+ kit i decided to try and use an old spring out of a diana 34 in my 52 , the coil diameter and spring diameter is not the same but very close Jesus what a pita , anyway its now down to 12.5fpe with about 1.5 inches of preload im going to leave it at that for now to see where it settles then start again 😢😢😢 your stock looks really nice by the way thanks again for the videos, il probably collapse a coil on my next endeavor for the 52 , ive spent so much time on these air rifles, one company i ordered a 12fpe kit from for one of my diana 34s sent me a 15-16fpe by mistake so even that simple job went south
That sounds all too familiar, try, try again in sweltering heat or freezing cold, fighting against incorrect parts making the job even more of a PITA. I do wonder why I do it sometimes. Hope your move to the UK goes well, hopefully we might have elected a capable by then (probably not). Thank you, the stock has settled in and looks rather good now, I'm happy with how it turned out in the end. All the best, Nick
@nickvending9688 if it wasn't for the 12fpe law it would be pretty simple 😫
Nick, What happened to part two? looking forward to learning how to get rid of the shiny surface on leather slings, any ideas?, cheers, Paul.
Hello Paul Thank you for your patience. Apologies, part 2 was shelved. My old job was half day on Fridays so I had some workshop time and time to edit videos. Now I work full hours on a Friday and weekends are usually booked up so I don't get as much free time to film the videos. I'm hoping to get something done on it fairly soon because I've got a rifle that needs a sling.
@@nickvending9688 Ok Nick cheers still need to get rid of the shiny leather on my slings any ideas please?
I will be trying isoproponol and a scouring pad to remove the shine. Then the heat treatment in the oven to crack the leather. I might use my outdoor oven to save stinking out the kitchen this time, Mrs V was not happy last time.
@@nickvending9688 cheers Nick, you must keep Mrs V happy so out door is a must!!, 😄I might try Acetone to demolish the shine.
Acetone is a good idea. Meths is another I was going to try.
I was lucky enough to get a Shoei STG 44.
I had to Google that. Wow, they look awesome 👌🏻. Out of my price range sadly.
