About the Feinwerkbau 800
The Feinwerkbau 800 is a single-shot, pre-charged pneumatic .177 (4.5mm) match air rifle built for 10-metre ISSF Olympic-style target shooting. Air is drawn from a 200 bar compressed-air cylinder through a pressure reducer that regulates each shot for an extremely consistent, recoilless release. It carries an adjustable match trigger, a diopter rear sight, an interchangeable-insert globe front sight, and a highly adjustable aluminium or laminated-wood stock with movable cheekpiece and buttplate, making it one of the premier precision air rifles for Olympic and World Cup competition.
Feinwerkbau air rifles have dominated Olympic 10-metre air rifle shooting for decades; the 800 family carried that legacy into the precision-regulated PCP era, equipping countless World Championship and Olympic medalists.
