    Don't think it's trying to prove anything its just a vid I saw and thaught it may be of interest to someone. My shooting partner had a remington 597 .22 lr and we found my fac airgun was more accurate and opened up more safe shooting opertunitys for a shot than the .22 lr. Personaly think I prefer the airgun. It an interesting video.

    I don't think they are overly long to me but here's a pic of mine (full lentgh) next to a barrel shortened hw99 for comparison....... They are very slender - my Bro had the carbine version very rare and one of the nicest guns iv ever seen.

    My fac airgun (.22 @ 26.6 ftlbs) is zeroed at 40 yards and is a mil dot of holdover at 60 yards on 6x mag. Even at 60 yards it hits with a good crack.

    Nice bag still was blowing again in north Yorkshire today I only managed 3 woodies. I should have taken the shotgun!

    Rabbit population seems a bit down on my perms here in North Yorkshire. Hardly any hares about at mo either - last year I was trpiping over them! (I don't shoot hares I must add)

    Bless him that's ace bet it made his week! When I was 6 I used to dream about fish like that!

    Hi Charlie iv had a look and they look nice, propper oldschool styling! Sounds an interesting design with the bearings too.

    This salmon parr was caught on the U R E and incase anyone might be interested there's a fish counter at tanfield and the counter is updated weekly on their website here..... http://www.uresalmon.org.uk/ I been watching for quite a while and quite a lot of fish pass through it.

    The cz sounds interesting Charlie caller. I love the 99 because it's so light and pointable. I was tempted to try a diy tune on a .177 but was put off for the same reasons. I just wish I'd baught a hw99 sooner.
  20. tomburras
    Thank you very much MIK and ROM1 I'm chuffed to bits it's a salmon parr! Really happy! Would love to catch a big one one day. Nice pics by the way.

    Tonight I had the pleasure of trying a new untuned .22 hw99 and they are bloody good as standard! they are a lot of gun for the money brand new and after a fettle amazing! Here's an old thread from my brother a couple of years ago.... http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/325196-hw99s-my-new-tuning-toy-;/ Are there many hw99 users on here and what are your thaughts on this gun?
  22. tomburras
    Yes occasionally I mainly use my rws excalibure (posh webley raider lol) but it's nice to have as a back up gun and for the occasional wander - It's a lovely thing! I just fitted a hw mod and it's really quiet with that fitted too! And agreed - rez,s videos are mint!
  23. tomburras
    Only just spotted this thread - yep your right it was your old gun!
  24. tomburras
    A salmon parr? Cheers! Tom.
  25. tomburras
    This is the fish in question.... Can anyone tell me if it's just a brownie or my over exited imagination? Cheers! Tom.
