Air Arms Diabolo or JSB Exact Jumbo Diabolo (.22 5.52)
philpot replied to Gaoler's topic in General Airgun Discussion
No. Just buy a tin of each and shoot them. Phil -
Looks well DB and I like the trigger. Phil

Stav my friend, you can make a living doing this sort of thing. Get photos up on facebook and you wll be getting a few orders for sure. Phil -
I have to say Matt that Si told me about your gun and what it was able to do in your hands which was a big factor in buying this gun along with Si's own experience of course. I know it is very early days but I really like this little gun, it's early performance has really sparked my interest in springers again and might even use it on some perms. I bought a springer to pass time during the lockdown as I thought it would be a challenge whereas the Impact .25 fac is a little overgunned in my cottage garden but this is just nice. Having heard the various comments regarding .22 calibre 99, I migh

I know they are available in 4.51 and 4.52 but not sure if any other sizes are available. In fact Sundon Model Shop sells them in both and possibly Voymir. Phil

Might be worth a call to Hull Cartridge next week and if there are any tech boys in, they may be able to talk you through it. Phil

Lovely stock DB, where is that from. Phil

Now we are talking Si ?

Would you have had .22 Mitch.

If you don't get anywhere, contact me as the dealer is a pal of mine and I can get hold of him for you. I know he has a hw110k .22 in stock along with a number of hw100 models plus an hw100 bulpup. Here you go http://shootingsupplies.info/gunroom/ Phil

I don't do facebook but you can also reach him there if there is nobody at the shop. What pcp are you looking for and you can go on their website and look in the 'gun room' which is Gun Star so you need to make sure you have only Crawfords guns. I enter on location, scunthorpe hospital then say a 10 mile radius and you will only get crawfords. I hate bloody gun star but it may help you. Loads of guns in there. Phil

Well I couldn't wait until tomorrow so a short session to set zero at 15mts which is all my little cottage garden allows but nevertheless after 9 shots to zero using JSB Exacts, I thought I would have a go at some hand drawn spot targets to see how both the gun and I handle it. I am not a springer shooter as most of you know, in fact I am bloody rubbish BUT I am pleased with the first attempt and gives me the drive to practice hard to get the hang of this side of the sport which will present a challenge during these dark days ahead. Anyway here is my first go, these are three shot groups

Well guys I have farted around as much as I was going to do with the HW57 which I sooooo wanted to work for me but we reached a point when I picked up the phone and hit the short code for Si Brown .....................................HELP !!!!!! You have already seen some of the issues I have had with the three hw57 rifles I had been trying out and just when I had settled on one of the them and with a new scope fitted, the POI started to move around to the point that I was making really pretty dot for dot patterns all over an A4 sheet of paper. A fault with the scope so three other scopes

NOW you are talking Stav. Phil -
What does AOLQ mean, it is still early for me but I cannot work that one out. Phil

Well done Bob, easy shots or not, the result is something that will please the stable owner. Phil

Yes, Humberside are 'clearing' land, in fact I submitted a listing of all our perms so that they can check them out before I put in for a .223 / ,243. We did this as there was a huge backlog of enquiries/processing so my pal and myself asked the licensing dept to remove them off our variation request as we wanted the wmr rifles quickly and could come back to the .223/.243 later this year. I have not bothered about chasing things up with the corvid 19 issues, no point in being a prick or at least more so than usual ? Phil

Yes I lost the site a few times over the last couple of weeks but it seems to be just the THL as other forums I am on were fine. Phil

Yes I have two, good scopes and yes it comes with side wheel. They are not the lightest scope and worth looking at the Compact version which are really nice just smaller and lighter. All Airmax scopes work well with add-on NV units. Phil
