  1. Gunpower stealth .20 cal, less than a year old used 4 or 5 times, very accurate and great deadly vermin hunter, its in immaculate as new condition includes silencer, Hawke scope, red laser and stirrup pump with adapter. All in all it cost me around £600 selling for £400 no offers, selling due to losing my shooting permission, the gun only was more than £400 without the extra's and barely had a few hundred pellets down it. I am in Kent and will only sell face to face buyer collects only, please no time wasters leave me a message and I will get back to you asap......... Cheers,
  2. I have a new stealth .20 cal its legal limit but heard these are great in FAC plus the large shot capacity even in Fac, very accurate and lightweight ..... Deano
  3. I always hang rabbits in winter months a day or 2 and sometimes up to 3 days if really cold, but always thumb the belly to release the pee or it'll be retained and can be easily burst making meat taste shite, the rabbit when first shot will not pee but after leaving a few mins to relax all nerves etc it'll go no problem, as for pheasants up to a week in very cold weather but at the mo all meat can be butchered up on arriving home it wont hurt. Some say pheasants should be left till they have bugs and maggots are crawling from them ...........i think not lol but i read this a lot but a few
  4. Tbh they're not that good, I have 1 and had 1 in past which was useless, they often read well high or well low and are affected by the muzzle blast which also can make the reading a bit dodgy if it registers at all, best save a few quid more and get an F1 or something similar as i tested my gun on a combro which said it was 9.73 ft lb but in fact it was doing 10.89 ft lb on an F1 , just my opinion but they are'nt very good at all.................. Deano
  5. I have a .20 cal stealth and also a stirrup pump, its quite easy to top up the stealths mighty capacity bottle as long as i dont have to start pumping from completely empty but if just topping up after shooting a good 200 + shots its pretty quick and easy to top back up to 200bar or 3000psi, i have noticed though that using the stirrup once its full at 200 bar the first 50 shots are a little inconsistent and the stirrup seems to of over filled the buddy even though it reads 200 on the dot ? Im sure the stirrup filling is doing something different to the gun than the bottled air does......
  6. Great job, I have owned 3 x Hw 80's and have to say they're 1 of the.. if not the greatest springers going and very user friendly / tinkerers delight............... Thats come out very nice and given me something to think about doing as my brother has an old Webley vulcan .22 which he used a handful of times when they were new and all the rage but has sat for years in the bedroom cupboard, Time to persuade him to part with it i think.......... Deano
  7. Great little bag, not so much fun gutting and carrying all back but worth it ...... Deano
  8. Well been out finally with my new gunpower stealth in .20 and it shoots great, after an initial zeroing session I got it shooting very tight groups out to 40 yrds with JSB exacts at 13.73 grains, to be honest its the its the first pellet i tried other than a couple of premiers, but very pleased with its performance and the gun seems to like them you just know when they dont but these seem pretty well matched. I took it out to a new permission hoping for a bunny or 2 but to be honest I checked this land out all times of day and have only seen one ??? Anyway there is more land I can try wit
  9. If you are ok with a screwdriver and soldering irons you'll have it looking brand new again in no time they sell all spare parts, and soldering even for a beginner is fairly easy ..... Deano
  10. well done mate love woodie shooting and tree rats ......... Deano
  11. Cheers, Im on the mend now hopefully so will get to this new perm 2moro arvo for a good few hours.......... Deano
  12. I had a long break from shooting and pretty much sold up all my gear for a metal detector but soon got bored with that so come back to shooting and luckily 2 of these landowners were from my shooting days and were fine with it but did manage to bag another small pasture site with a quick knock and invited in for a cup of tea with a lovely old couple who have many rabbits and could'nt of been more helpful and obliging plus I have a face that fits I guess, i think a lot of its in the way you look and they way you ask / speak etc but always try these little pasture sites with a few horses on they
  13. Worse pain ever is toothe ache or should I say ( old tooth hole ache )
  14. Planned to go out saturday morning, have a new permission farmer was phoned and message left but no reply at first ? Anyway on Thursday I had 2 tooth extractions that I seem to of been waiting over 6 months for as I have problems with bleeding badly for over a week afferwards so it was arranged to be done at the hospital, in I went thurs had injection to numb the area extractions done in less than 10 mins no pain and the socket was filled with sterile material and then stitched over..........job done or so I thought. He said to avoid infection he would prescribe antibiotics and noticed I h
