Thats because you are an old twat.............................but I still loves ya Jimmy. Phil

That does not make me feel any better Jeff when I hit 73 a couple of weeks ago. We could start a new section 'The Pensioners Hunting Life' forum. I popped onto the sea wall yesterday to see how a pal was doing on the cod fishing, I got out of the car and within minutes I was frozen and it was not long ago, I would have been on that sea wall in my shorts............................as my sea fishing pal said, I am just an old twat. Phil

You have become an old TACKLE TART Jimmy although as you know I could not argue with your choice................ I think the Verminator has the edge on this evidence. Have you tried the JSB RS pellets in the .22 because they are worth trying, Mark, Mitch and myself all found at sub 12 they were better than the average 15-16gr pellets. You also need to test the JTS pellets which are superb in FX barels as my pal Chris found out in his two DRS rifles plus my Wildcat fac was seriously good as well. Extreme Hunter Donator 5

What mod fits and still looks right. I was looking at one in my rfd but could not see how it fits or is it a special Vulcan mod. Looks a lovely piece of kit. Phil

Welcome aboard Cat Fluff (a name that is strange to say the least ) this thread is 3 years old and the guy has not been on here since so I don't think he will respond. Feel free tp join in with us though. Phil

Your maverick is a Mk3 Wildcat or the other way round with a cylinder air tank Jason, the Mk3 BT is a maverick with a better stock. Phil

You are just a rough arse....................... Phil

I am sorry to say this BUT it's a Daystate so it will break and they will be as much use as a fart in a sieve for the help they give you. Yiu are not far from Neville's gun shop so they may be able to help but if they say it needs to go back to Daystate...........................lots of luck. One guy who will sort it for you is Phil Crampton at Ratworks in Leicester. Phil

I agree with Hawke scopes and you will find that quite a few dealers will have s/h scoped in at very good prices. My rfd in Scunthorpe gas loads of s/h scopes and may be worth a call, Crawfords Shooting Supplies. Phil

Drive around looking for pest issues such as crows, feral pigeon and rats as most people will be asking for rabbit or woodpigeon permission but if you go for the things that most people DON'T ask for, it may well give you a better chance. Also look at rural churches wher pigeon crapping on the building could be a big issue, dairy farms where feral pigeon and corvids eat the cattle feed again crapping on the cattle feed IS a big issue with defra, look at industrial units where quite often rats and rabbits can be a problem in other words look outside the box to make and approach where you hav

As you know only too well Jimmy, I have always loved the ones I have owned (mk1 and 2) but these mk3 are something else although mine is an FAC, they are just lovely to use, short and light as well as being very accurate. Phil

I do like the Ultra, mine is a .22 Mark and accurate but I fancy a .177 although I would prefer an HW110 again, those rifles were fantastic, god only knows why on earth I sold them, so accurate with a good shot count even in the Compact version that I had, I am a fool for selling them. Phil

Hi Mark. I have owned two of these original Brocock rifles which were fantastic ( brfore Daystate got their hands on the the company) but my only gripe was the low shot count to keep on POI. In fact I looked at one at a similar time to when I bought the Ultra but it was way more than I would pay for one however I did see a couple of years ago that someone had fitted another air cylinder to massively increase shot count which does appeal greatly and if I can get one cheap enough to be used as the base model before any work done, I would be interested. Absolutely lovely little guns. As a mat

Pretty sure he is sorted now. Phil

So where are you based.
