  1. I saw the shroud Si Pittaway had fitted by Ratworks, very very quiet. To be honest it was the shot count that always put me off the Ultra and I did have a chat with Phil at Ratworks to build a gun for me. Never actually actually shot one but picked them up many times in the shop, feel spot on. Phil
  2. What increase in shot count do you expect Mitch with the longer cylinder and who is going to do the work for you. Phil
  3. Cheers Mark, noted Uttings. Thought JSB Exacts were AA Field made in Poland or somewhere. Phil
  4. David , if it's for your HW100k try AA Express or JSB Express ,thats all i use in my now and seems good in the wind and better than Falcons in .177 I think they would be easier to get hold of compared to Falcons so they need to go on the list of test pellets.
  5. I would like to try the .177 but nowhere near me sells them. Every bit of feed back I have read has been good so far and paticularly in HW guns. Phil
  6. I wish I could afford the Pulsar of Viz's, I would jump at that, Oh well.............bugger. Phil
  7. Well even it is not you matey, it is still a cracking photo.
  8. I have got to say Mac, your new avatar photo is really superb, love it and would have been pleased to take that photo. Phil
  9. A bit slow to pick this up.........................it makes me feel sick, what the hell is wrong with people who do this sort of thing. I really hope your eye is not seriously damaged Sean and I hope some of your friends just happen to meet up with the guy or guys involved. Utter cowards, get well soon mate. When my son was in university in London, he was attacked from the rear trying to slash his hamstring so he could not run and they could nick his watch. The girls were the ones with the razor blades and blokes doing the robbing. He also finished in hospital but so did a couple of his at
  10. I take it that they are scope fussy. Do you know what works or not. Needless to say I had a look at the web site after you gave me the info. Phil
  11. I hate new year, it is 11.20pm, that means in 40 mins I will be 64.......... not fair, I am still 30 in my head. Have a great New Year chaps Phil
  12. Heavy recoil Mark, that doesn't sound good at all. Phil
  13. Whizz your mod off the barrel and unscrew the barrel weight then refit the mod. You will make the front end lighter straight away and benefit by it. If you find it still a little heavy at the front, you can fit a BSA R10 air bottle which being made of aluminium is much lighter. Phil
  14. The Rapid stock is really nice. Some of the prices seem okay and others, not so good. I wish him well and glad you got a good deal. Phil
  15. Welcome I love your rifle and your country, having been many times over the years on business. Phil
  16. Yes I read that as well. It doesn't sound like a good start does it. Phil
  17. We used to use an owl decoy when shotgun shooting a few years ago but not sure that would work with a rifle as they mob the owl and we obviously shot them on the wing. Phil
  18. If I do buy one of these guns, you can be rest assured that I will do a review, warts and all. At this stage, I will be happy to just get my hands on one to feel what is is like in the shoulder and take it from there. To be very honest, I would buy an Hm 1000 if I could afford one but the old pension doesn't go that far and that has to be one of my considerations for my next gun. God, I do sound like an old fart but I have just come in from a 5 mile walk so not completely knackered just yet. Phil
  19. VM, I don't really know, there is just something about this gun I really like as I do with a few guns, not just this one. I love my HW but I want a .22 and possibly a different make. I liked the older Brococks for the handling but the shot count was rubbish. Confined areas ratting comes to mind, it won't be the first time I am wrong about something and I'm sure as hell it won't be the last but I need to get this out of the thinking one way or another. Phil
  20. If it works, I don't care who made it, it may fit the bill so I will keep an open mind and wait to see the outcome. Phil
  21. But dipped in camo Mac............................
