  1. Since I started with Catty's ive always cut my own yes. Not to say I wouldn't try precut but it just what ive always done so far.
  2. I found somewhere that sells Orange 1, 0.8, and 0.7ish. And also .8 red n white. Just wondered what thoughts were on which to use for targets, hunting or both etc? Cheers
  3. Where do I get this GZK Elastic from? I have heard about it and about the red & white stuff but when having a look cant seem to find anywhere. Do you buy the bands or can you get the sheet to cut yourself? Cheers
  4. What is the preferred band rather that TBG now then?
  5. Hi all, I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong lately or if it’s just because I’ve changed my band taper lately but I seem to be rebanding everyday lately. I used to shoot 25-20mm on a natty OTF. I’ve recently made a TTF styles from a chunky fork I got last year and starting cutting bands 30-20. I’m also using a new band jig I made up but believe I have sanded the metal clamps more than enough for anything to cut into bands. The bands seem to be snapping in same place every time, which is just below the tie at the pouch end. I do go through a fair few shots in t
  6. Hi all, Is anyone on here getting rid of a tank to fill my gun up? Cheers
  7. Hi all, I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this but just wanted to confirm. I was trying to zero my scope yesterday as it was shooting far too low. The adjuster was going UP fine but then I was able to get it any higher and I'm still a good inch below the Bull. I'm assuming this means the scope is knackered? Cheers
  8. Fantastic, thank you for your reply. I wondered why there wasn't anything obvious online about the 2, but if its just Mag size then that would explain it. Thanks again
  9. Hi all, Still looking for my first FAC air rifle and one of my local places have got a Rapid 12 I believe. Ive had a look online but cant really find anywhere which tells me the difference between a 7 and a 12. Can anyone shed any light please? Cheers
  10. the beaks been cut down to about 25-30mm
  11. Well that's the thing, ive just put in for my FAC so cant say exactly what itll be going on but it will be a 22 FAC Air Rifle
  12. One of the things that's putting me off if you can class it as that, is would I really need the 800m beam compared to the F600 - 200m beam. Plus one thing that got me confused is the 600 has a 200m beam but the F400 white has 300m beam?
  13. Hi all, I realise this may have been discussed before so apologise in advance. Now I understand that killing a rabbit has a lot to do with target placement rather than power etc but I just wondered if there was some way I could figure out what distance (dependant on pellet placement) a certain left Airgun will kill at. I’m new to FAC Airguns so not sure what ftlb I’m going to get as it probably depends what is available at time etc but when I get one I would like to have an idea what the max distance it will kill at once I’ve got it sighted and my pellet placement is acceptabl
  14. I love the idea of Thermal and used to work with Flir Cams so know how good Thermal is but they are way out of my price range I think.
  15. Thought I’d put the question out there as wondered apart from price the reasons why people went for NV Scopes over a Torch/Lamp? cheers
  16. Hi all, I’m looking to get a new Scope mounted Torch and seen the Tracer F900 for about £200 for kit. Just wondered if anyone’s had experience with them and are they ok? Cheers
  17. Cheers for that fella, I’ve always got thermals on underneath so not like I’m getting draft. But when it comes to taking coat off at dinner, I look like a scruffy teenager lol.
  18. I’ve been to a local dealer today’s and had a look at some used stock. There was a Rapid Mk1 that actually took my eye and felt quite nice. Had quick fill adapter, was about 32ftlb, decent mod n scope etc. He did mention that there was a mk2 but didn’t really tell me difference if any apart from newer model. Anybody had experience with both and know main differences, pros n cons etc?
  19. To be honest I did think about that but the only thing that made me lean against it was if I ever had to shoot somewhere without FAC approval then I wouldn’t have a air gun below 12flb. Still haven’t ruled it out though.
  20. My permission (Due to its location) has only been signed off for use with a FAC Airgun. If it was signed off for more I would get a bullet gun. Cheers

  22. Hi all, Ive been using a BSA S10 for a while now on my permission for Rabbit control. Recently found out that its been signed off by Firearms for FAC Airgun use. In result ive now put in for my FAC as well as my existing Shotgun. So ive now started looking around for what I'm going to buy but there seems to be loads available, and most I believe can be tuned up to 30-40 ftlb. Anyway I thought I would throw the question out to the experienced one and ask for advice on what would be a decent gun (Nothing stupidly expensive) will want scope, moderator etc, to get. I doubt I
  23. Hi all, Can anyone recommend the best place to get Country Shirts (For Beating & Shooting etc) which are extra long in the back? Not too fussed about sleeve length but generally they come long as well. I'm 6ft4 and am just sick of shirts coming out when out n about. I cant tighten my belt anymore lol. Cheers all
