Hi RZimB3434, that link is consistent with your info, but similarly I cannot see the feature on the rifle pictured. If it's the piece I'm thinking of then it should be in the stock just aft of the pistol grip and there should be a couple of (stainless?) parrallel bars which can be adjusted to alter the cast of the stock.

Are you sure of this feature? I thought it was only on the metal stocks and I can't see it in the photo.

I was speaking from the perspective of 10m air rifle competition shooting using (.177) wadcutter pellets. I believe that FT has different requirements but am sure that, if they have stumbled upon something which increases accuracy, then it would have found it's way back into the 10m arena.

You may already be aware of this, but posting just in case not. All of the rifles you've mentioned are true target air rifles which comply with ISSF regulations and which bear the pentagon mark, the definition of which is shown below. Your use case seems a little unusual (a "terminator" style) but for 10m shooting they will all be highly accurate and should fall within 6ft/lbs (7.5 joules is approx 5.5 ft/lbs). Any significant increase above this has been shown to cause tumbling of the pellet and loss of accuracy....so the decision becomes whether you're looking for power or accuracy.

And sometimes patience is needed too. I sold a stock on here a while back which was advertised for a few months - it all depends on whether the right person is looking at the right time or not.

There was a similar question a while back in the thread linked below. While the exact answer isn't there, hopefully that will help. I'm not a Facebook'er so can't help further I'm afraid.

One currently advertised on this forum.....

Yes, but outward scoring and outward gauging are different things. The gauges with a wider flange go to the next ring out and facilitate more accurate scoring than the straightforward .22 plug gauge shown in the picture at the top of the thread. For reference the following photo shows: .22 plug gauge 25X, 50x (50yd), 50m, 100x - all of these are outward gauges due to the flanges

I'm not very familiar with the BR comps, but as you've noted the flanges are different between the gauges. The ones with the larger flanges are preferred for outward gauging on precision cards - could it be that the 25BRX gauge is the BR equivalent (for 25yds)?

Indeed it does - the BR version is twice as fine as the usual Spy. I have one which I'm just getting used to, but first impressions are that it's excellent.

The MEC Spy is typically the go-to sight with finer clicks but I think Anschutz do one too if you want to stay with the same manufacturer as the rifle. Another (but I've not seen it for sale in the UK) is the Korn Optik 40.

I tend to get various screws (hex, cap, grub etc.) from www.modelsfixings.co.uk or www.margnor.co.uk
