  1. Well the FX was not high on my list anyway but it is deffo out of the equasion now. Phil
  2. Just joined the Artemis group Mitch. I really do like the look of these new P35, hmmm on the list. Phil
  3. Yes I have seen the FX ones but not keen. I will pop into my rfd as he has a Skan and I will check it there but ideally I want to use it for my rimfire .22 lr and wmr possibly shotgun if I decide to start loading my 28gr cartridges so the Chrony does look a better bet for total use but totally agree the Skan is the best out there and is used by all polive firearms departments. Phil
  4. I did look for Mark Dempsey but the only one I found with any link to shooting was a guy who was on the Beretta and FX group but thats it. can you send me a link Mitch as a .22 version may come in very handy. https://www.(!64.56:886/phil.roberts.54966834/ Phil
  5. I have had a Combro unit for a few years now and its ok'ish but doesn't like fac of late. I used to have a Chrony but let it go as I didn't use it much. Now I am trying to get some readings from the Impact .25 fac but nothing even on pellets, fine on sub 12 but not at fac so it looks like I need to get something else sorted. I will look out for a chrony but not a one on ebay or any other suggestions guys. Phil
  6. I have heard some really good reports on this little gun although they were sub 12. Are you fitting a reg as you have taken it to fac. I sometimes see a chap in Suffolk when we go clay shooting down there who has a P15 and loves it, mainly used for ratting and ferals, he can't fault it. I did have a few shots with it and thought it was a nice little gun and bang on accurate albeit I was only shooting at about 25mt. I will be interested to hear how you go on with it. Phil
  7. Last year with Covid19 taking an awful hold on the UK, the game fair and most other fair were cancelled, Trish and myself had tickets and were transferred to this year thinking we would be all clear and everything back to normal, same with our hotel bookings. This year in our third lockdown and whilst we are getting the jab and numbers of deaths are dropping, thankfully, the thought of being at the game fair with 100k other people quite honestly frightens the life out of me. We were at the game fair a few years ago when there was plenty of rain and everyone was cramped inside the stands, just
  8. You have to remember that this forum is like no other or certainly that I have been on, we have no 'keyboard warriors' well when we do they soon bugger off and really this is just a bunch of pals having a chat on a platform so cannot be compared to others. I don't find AGF to bad to be honest although there are a few who think they are somewhat superior to others and BBS is not one I ever clicked with but I am not knocking it. This is not an easy forum to get involved in as we take the p1ss out of any situation or anybody but until you get to know the people on here, it is a strange experien
  9. Wonder if they do the plenums as well maybe even fit them which would be a bonus. Phil
  10. The slugs arrived today Allan and all still in the tubes, many thanks matey. I have just been talking to my dearlt beloved about upgrading my impact but I fear the cost will be too high and not sure what I would get for my original Mk1 with smooth twist barrel OR buy a new barrel (600 or 700mm) and plenum sticking with the existing mags as I am not too bothered about the new ones. Hmmm I will have to get some prices in. Phil
  11. I am not so sure to be honest, having seen what Simon can do with my old right handed TX was nothing short of bloody amazing and to spend £700 on a lefty is not worth the money to a man who can shoot as well as Simon with the guns he has. Phil
  12. I wonder if AA have appointed Tony Belas to run the company because it is the sort of feck up he would do ? Phil
  13. Depending where in Suffolk you live, there are some very big game shoots near Darsham area next to Highlodge Shooting ground where you might find a place helping out on the shoot when things get back to normal-ish. I don't live in Suffolk as you can see but visit Highlodge a few times each year and will be down there in May for a couple of weeks although I guess that is stil doubtful at the moment. Phil
  14. There is a group on facebook, Free pest control for farmers & land owners
  15. Would I still be wasting my time Mitch using them in my original impact barrel as in ORIGINAL barrel. Phil
  16. Hello Jake and welcome aboard matey. You will be in good company here regarding the hunting side of things with a number of us spilling over into shotgun and rifle shooting on 'Rimfire, centre fire and shotgun' section in this part of the forum. There are also some very clever guys on here who strip and tune springers as well as being pretty good hunters using them as well. We do take the pi55 out of eachother so be prepared to have your trousers pulled down but all in the best of fun. Enjoy. Phil
  17. Well how long has that taken, still, better late than never I guess. Phil
  18. Very good video and well explained BUT I would not dare to do this, just not my comfort zone at all and I envy those who can. One thing I would like to see and that is if anyone has managed to alter trigger pressure on the 110 / 110k because I do find mine and the previous one to be very very light, tooooo light. It is a superb little gun just wish I could balance the trigger weight to a similar weight to my other guns. In fact if I have been using the Impact or springer or even my rimmys, it takes me a few shots to feel the first stage, my pal is the same but Hull Cartridge say they could o
  19. If your home address and your perm is in the same police authority, you will be okay. If so, phone your police, dial 101, ask for control room and advise them that you are visiting the perm for vermin control giving them your details, the ACTUAL address details of the perm so make sure you have all the details including name and address of the land owner. If they are not happy about it, they will tell you otherwise ask for a log number and off you go but make sure you phone them when you get home to let them know you are now at home and finished for the evening. Phil
  20. Hmmm old fart or not, not bad.....................have you ordered yours Mitch ???? Phil
  21. The Crown wins hands down, no question and I cannot believe anyone could think that the Crown is heavier or unbalanced. Phil
