Re: Regulating a BD14
I think you will be pleased with the accuracy capability of the BD14, once you have had time to get to know her.
The.22 Hornet barrel on my BD14 is especially pleasing.
I have never owned a .22 Hornet before, even though it was my fathers favourite cartridge.
I fired 5 shots on Tuesday, 4 went into one hole.
Bugger all noise, no muzzle flash, and no recoil.

Re: Regulating a BD14
Alan how many screws have you got at the end of the hornet barrel. Your instructions say 2 but i only have one torx screw?

One 2.5 hex, and inside the 2.5 hex is a T6 torx.

Re: Regulating a BD14
Those with a BD14 can they reconcile the instructions with this photo of my front end. I don't have any safety screws just one screw. Is this similar to yours?
thanks
Chuck

Re: Regulating a BD14
Hey Chuck, I can see the T6 torx in the photo inside the outer hole.
Does the outer head fit a 2.5 Allen key?

Re: Regulating a BD14
The outside screw looks round to me?
Does it have absolutely any internal contour or shape?
Maybe it’s a different head?
Is the other adjustment point the same?

Re: Regulating a BD14
I think yours is fine Chuck.
It does not look like a 2.5 hex , but it fits as per photo below.

Re: Regulating a BD14
Thanks Alan,
Yes amazingly there is a torx screw inside a torx screw. I'll work it out now.
I like the blaser drilling cover but given how fast I have to shoot some times I'd just forget and blow it off
