The Logun Standard A Logun rifle is built like no other airgun - because it’s built to The Logun Standard. Whilst many modern air rifles offer fine accuracy, efficient handling and a high standard of workmanship, none displays all of these qualities with the effortless superiority of a Logun rifle. Along with technical accomplishments unrivalled within the airgun industry today, this rifle has class - it’s as simple as that.
The Logun Legend Evolves In 1998, the airgun world was taken by storm by the newly launched Logun rifle. Evolving from a prototype designed and built by renowned airgun engineer Jim Hogan in his Rotherham workshop, it became an air-powered sporting rifle capable of incredible accuracy at ranges of 50 yards and beyond. This unrivalled performance was delivered so consistently and so quietly that new industry standards were established, standards that even today no other manufacturer can match.
SECTION 1 THE GOLDEN RULES OF SAFE SHOOTING What makes a great shooter? Is it the ability to hit distant targets with machine-like precision? Is it the skill required to perform to the highest level under any conditions nature can throw at you? Or is it that magical talent that sets the sporting champion apart from those who merely compete? Well, great shooters can be all of these things but first and foremost, they are something far more important than any of these things. Great shooters are safe.
BEFORE you begin shooting, always ensure that your shooting range is secure and that people, animals and pets cannot stray into your line of fire. NEVER leave your airgun loaded or unattended, or store it in such a way that unauthorised persons can use it. ALWAYS ensure that every pellet you fire remains within the boundaries of the land on which you have permission to shoot. This is a legal, as well as a safety requirement.
QUICK-START INSTRUCTIONS Please note: Your Logun MkII requires the fitting of a telescopic sight or similar sighting device before use. Logun recommend Simmons, Weaver and AGS scopes. Always ensure that the mounts used are sufficiently high enough to lift the objective bell of the scope clear of the rifle’s barrel and action block. 1) Inspect the contents of the padded gun case supplied with your Logun MkII.
2) Take the supplied probe charging connector and screw it securely to the air hose of your charging equipment. Note: If you are using a stirrup pump ensure that a filter is fitted to minimise the risk of foreign particles and moisture entering the rifles receiver. 3) Rotate filler valve dust cover. Note: This cover is essential to prevent the ingress of dust and grit. The cover can be rotated clockwise or anti-clockwise to enable the cover hole to align with the fill hole of the valve body.
4) Push the probe up to the shoulder - this will ensure correct filling. 5) Once the probe is securely fitted, your Logun MkII can be gradually charged with compressed air to the pressure indicated in the front inside cover of this manual. Over-charging will result in a loss of power from the rifle and could damage the internal seals. Full Please Note: When full, the needle on the gauge can fall anywhere within the marked sector shown above.
6) When charging is complete, ‘bleed’ the excess air from the hose only and disconnect the probe from the rifle by pulling back. 7) Rotate the dust cover immediately. Never use or store your Logun MkII without its filler valve dust cover closed. Dirt and grit can contaminate the internal valve system of your rifle, so keep the dust cover closed between fills at all times. 8) If supplied, screw on the Logun silencer. Do not use excessive force to secure the silencer - a ‘finger tight grip is perfect.
9) Before attempting to fill your Logun MkII’s magazine with pellets, take the rifle to a safe shooting range. Next, with the rifle un-cocked and the muzzle pointing safely at the ground, draw back the spring loaded pellet probe and lock it fully back into its retaining notch. NOTE: Your Logun MkII is set up to use any of the Crosman Premier and ‘pell range of pellets eg: Accupell, Matchpell, Verminpell and Powapell.
Load the pellets, nose-first, into the magazine, before lifting the pellet probe and allowing it to locate to the rear of the last pellet loaded. IMPORTANT: DO NOT allow the pellet probe to travel freely under the power of its activating spring inside the magazine either when the magazine is full or empty. This can seriously damage the probe, pellets or both, with a subsequent risk of malfunction. Also Note: There is a Logun method for fast, efficient loading.
10) Your Logun MkII is now ready to use. After checking that it is safe to shoot, simply lift the cocking/loading bolt, draw it back fully, return it to its closed position and the rifle can now be fired. WARNING: Do not cock your Logun twice as this will cause a jam Repeat the bolt-action sequence until all the pellets in the Logun MkII’s magazine have been fired. Repeat steps 9 and 10 to carry on shooting. NOTE: When the magazine is empty, the pellet pusher engages into the pellet carriage locking it.
SECTION 3 SHOOTING TO THE MAX Your Logun MkII is capable of a standard of accuracy that can only be exploited by shooters on the top of their form. Quite simply, unless you’re shooting to the very best of your ability, you now own a gun that will out-shoot you - and then some. Don’t be offended by this statement because that’s how it should be.
Most of the top shooters use prepared pellets. They do so because prepared pellets are more consistent in flight, less likely to jam a multi-shot magazine and are better for the barrels in which they are used. It’s easily possible to prepare a whole tin of 500 pellets in less time that it takes to make a cup of tea, so, all things considered its an exercise well worth doing. PHASE 2. PELLET PREPARATION 1) Take a clean jar and half fill it with water, to which a squirt of washing up liquid has been added.
4) When the whole batch of ammo is dry and still warm, turn out the sieve onto a large piece of lint-free cloth, into which a quantity of pellet lubricant such as Logun PL9 has been rubbed. 5) ‘Roll’ the pellets around in the cloth (never apply oil directly to the pellets or you may fill the skirts with oil and unbalance them) until they’ve all received a ‘slick’ coating of Logun PL9 lubricant.
Before any shooter can use a trigger properly, it needs to be set up to match his or her preference. That’s no problem for Logun MkII owners. Simply follow the instructions on page 20 of this manual. With the trigger adjusted to your requirements, it’s time to practice using it correctly. Before you do that,mentally replace the phrase “pulling the trigger”, with the more appropriate phrase, “squeezing the trigger”.
PHASE 4: WORK ON YOUR HANDLING Your Logun MkII is recoilless and perfectly balanced, therefore it doesn’t need to be gripped tightly or pulled into your shoulder. This rifle should be guided and supported with a secure, forgiving hold, making sure that, whatever shooting stance you favour is well-balanced and stable. Above all, don’t allow muscle tension to build up in your hands, arms or torso. Stay relaxed, keep calm and let the rifle take care of business. Also, experiment with different stances.
the rifle, all of which are designed to immediately reveal evidence of tampering. Basically, if you break the ‘no tampering’ clause of your guarantee, then the warranty on your Logun will become invalid. LUBRICATION Logun rifles are designed to run virtually maintenance-free between their 2 year factory service intervals.
SECTION 5 ADJUSTING THE TRIGGER Before it leaves the factory, each Logun MkII will have its trigger adjusted to a safe and efficient setting. Different shooters prefer different trigger set-ups and your Logun MkII offers an almost unlimited range of set-up options. However, you are advised to alter the setting of your rifle’s trigger only if you really need to.

Adjuster Screw ADJUSTING THE TRIGGER To adjust the first trigger stage, adjust screw (7). To adjust the second trigger stage, the safety must be OFF and the rifle un-cocked - then adjust screw (13). NOTE: When you have altered the position of the trigger block, adjust the screw (3) for the safety function.
SECTION 6 REMOVAL OF BARREL The Logun MkII must be unloaded and double checked to ensure it is safe. STEP 1 There are two Allen key headed screws situated on the same side as the loading system towards the front of the breech. These are the fixing screws for the barrel, completely remove one of the screws. Undo the second by 5 full turns. STEP 2 Go to the front end of the gun, hold the silencer or, if silencer not fitted, the stainless steel adaptor and pull away the front of the action.
SECTION 7 Do’s and Don’ts DO clean your rifle with a synthetic based spray such as Logun SL7 applied to the rifle by spraying it on a lint free cloth then wipe over rifle. DON’T spray synthetic based spray Directly onto the rifle, always apply by spraying it on a lint free cloth. DON’T use silicone oils or greases. DO remove the stock from the action before drilling the stock to fit sling swivels. DON’T leave the filling chamber exposed, always rotate the dust cover.
SECTION 8 SERVICE RECORD Your rifle must be serviced bi-annually by an approved Logun Service Centre. Failure to do so will invalidate the rifle’s lifetime warranty.
