  13. i got a gamo shadow 1000 yeterday for cheap £110 so thought i would try it out so i zeroed it to shoot 1 inch high at 20m and hit 1.5 low at 35m and found that with rws super points it hit at 3/4 inch group at 30 metres witch isnt bad for a cheap gun... so i headed out to my local farm and took a wander around, after a while i got close enough to a woodie and stabled myself against a tree and got a clean neck shot at 22 paces and then went a bit further and hit another woodie but this time at 34 paces and found the pellet had hit it in the crop and penertrated right through and out near its
  14. was wondering what you guys use for hunting and as ive only ever used 22 what are the advantages of 177 or 22 any help would be great as i would prefer a flatter shooting rifle
  15. not quite that easy im afraid you have to get them on a flightline or feeding area other wise your wasting your time and even then they can be a pain and still not work and remember to stay well hidden. there called decoys
  16. my friend bought one a while ago and it seems very good for such a cheap gun £140 and was wondering what you guys thought of these as i might get 1 and a pcp so i can play with both kinds
  17. thanks for the help. when not using your rifle do you have to do anything to stop the air leaking away or do you fill the bottle everytime you go out and then leave it to next time and the air will be the same pressure ?
  18. was wondering what pcp rifle to get as my first ever 1 and would like to know if multi shot are less reliable than single
  19. how many fills do you get roughly out of a 7 ltr bottle and do the way a lot because i dont own a van
  20. It depends on what you call cheap its 200-250 to get a bottle and guages etc then you can get hundreds of fills from that one bottle every time the bottle is filled which only costs about a fiver or you could get a pump for 90 and spent an hour pumping each time you fill does it really take an hour and does it cost a lot to get a bottle filled up. and how much for getting your rifle bottle filled
  21. THANKS ARE THERE ANY DIFFERANCES IN POWER WHEN USING PUMP OR TANK
  22. WAS THINKING OF GETTING MY FIRST PCP AND WAS WONDERING HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO GET THEM FILLED OR FILL THEMSELF WITH A PUMP OR BOTTLE AND HOW MUCH TO DO SO .. WITCH RIFLES ARE EASY TO FILL UP AND HOW MANY SHOTS DO YOU GET PER FILL
