    Will be curious to see these and how you find them!

    Hi, When are you getting new stock of Pard NV-019 ? I have sent an enquiry from your website but got no reply as yet. Best regards, Matt

    Phil, am just waiting for people to get the NV-019`s in stock again before I order mine. But I will want to add an external IR (T38 as I already have it) as you have done but cant find that bit of rail with the tripod fitting...... Any chance of a link to where you found yours ? ATB Matt

    Simon,Mark do you wash and lube your pellets or use them straight from the tin ?

    Sub 12ftlb for anything my personal preference is .177 with any weight ammo followed by .22 with a light pellet. Heavy .22 and .25 + Cal I would leave from for FAC power levels. ATB Matt

    A JSB Heavies fan here also. In testing I found that the best pellets in my rifle are either JSB Heavies or light pellets like AA & JSB express. Indoor when I travelled up to Atherton indoor range for some testing the AA express just grabbed it I would say.... but it was so marginal it wasn`t clear cut. What was a surprise though was that no medium weight pellets matched the heavies or express. So I tested out in the paddocks and at range the heavies very slightly nudged ahead. But for me the selling point on the Heavies has been on head shot rabbits and corvids straight on

    Each to their own but I had a pair of CZ452`s and was very happy with them although my HMR took over for me as the main work horse so I swapped my .22lr for a FAC .22 Air rifle. My advice would be to go HMR then see if you still need / want the .22lr. Just my opinion though.?

    The first thing I did when I got my HW100 (KT) .177 was I bought a A&M cylinder and silencer. I dont know what the shot count was originally but running JSB Heavies at 11.2ftlb it gives me 6 mags before the velocity (fps) starts to drop so 80-85 shots. And none of my set-up has ever let me down. Happy to recommend the A&M products.

    I have a SMW Engineering mag for my .177 HW100 and am very happy with it, its the newer version I have and am happy to recommend it. Works fine and is easier to find in the dark if you drop it also cheap enough to replace if needed ! ATB Matt

    T38 is what I use on my HW100KT and its great. I spot with a T50 and I no longer use my Night master !

    As above really, I have seen a few but they are places like Kent and Scotland which is not much use for what I want. I want to find someone who I can drive too in and hour or hour and a half tops so they can size / measure up, I am in Shropshire. Its for my HW100KT and I find the palm grip too small in an ideal world and also the length of pull on the trigger, I would like an extra 10-15mm reach for the trigger from my hand. I also dont want to have a big belly on the front of it making a hampster, a stock very similar in shape to the standard stock but laminate is what am looking at. Che

    Mitch, my shooting buddy just had his HW101 worked on by Phil @ The Ratworks. Main things though are his cylinder mod and a tench reg in it. He also has a HW100kt for hunting that has an A&M cylinder on it so we will see how they both fair. My HW100kt has A&M Cylinder and Silencer on that am very happy with. The final touch will be a stock that suits my hand size. ATB Matt
  13. salop sniper
    Gotta say I love my HW100KT (.177) too, the only thing I would change would be my stock, I want a bigger palm swell/hand grip and set a little further back from the trigger ! other than that no issues at all, love it. Bangs out JSB Heavies accurately and very well all day long and does everything I ask of it ! So 2018 may see me get a custom stock for it, just gotta decide who to use next and get a price. Am in no rush so I can take my time and get it right. ATB Matt
  14. salop sniper
    T38 for all my airgun stuff ! More than enough for the job.
  15. salop sniper
    Nice link there VM, good test and great display of results ! Cheers for that ATB Matt
  16. salop sniper
    So your happy with retained energy down range ? It's good to hear people's real world experience of the light weight pellet rather than calculated predictions. Cheers
  17. salop sniper
    I normally order from Germany for JSB as My HW100 likes JSB Heavys, but Germany are out of stock currently so just bought a sleave to share with a mate from Voimir and as everyone says great service, packaging and price. But JSB Express....... How are folk finding them at range on quary IE past 40yards ? They are accurate in my HW100 but I have yet to find a pellet that beats the JSB Heavy for down range effect on quarry which is something I really value. ATB Matt

    Welcome to the area ! I am just up the road from you and within 10mile of you we have a good group of air gunners. Main choices will be: Furnace Mill Milride Penkridge Kinver Main one being furnace mill. We struggle for good Airgun shops but in Wellington there is Janes fishing tackle. Other than that I buy online or pop over to SFS or DAI sporting supplies. ATB Matt

    For me it would be the HW 97 having shot the other rifles! It is just so much better operating for me ! The LGU is accurate but it's just trying to be a HW and HW do it so much better. The TX again is very nice and maybe better out of the box but I can't stand the silly anti-bear catch thing. HW97 all the way and treat it to some refinement with a tune or upgrade kit, my money would be spent on a stage 2 at SFS after trying server so others and already owning my IMP ! ATB Matt
  20. salop sniper
    Villaman - I hear what your saying but the mounts for the scope would of needed to of been extra high I recon for comfort and it seemed heavy ! But will have a good mooch around tomorrow ! Cheers Matt
  21. salop sniper
    And it still leaves the question of which HW! I didn't like the 97, and am sure a break barrel is easier to load especially at night over an under leaver ! Lol
  22. salop sniper
    Rez, There's a very good reason I don't touch stuff like this, especially if it's load bearing or under pressure! If I had a go anything could happen from nothing to . . . . Well catastrophic failure resulting in injory to something or someone ! Am best sticking to shooting and leave the messing about well alone ! At £375 it's only £100 for the "imp-isation" which includes the silencer ! So am happy to do that. ATB Matt
  23. salop sniper
    As above folks I have pcp's and love them but I've never owned or really used a springer and never a tuned springer ! (Please don't hate me! Lol) I held a 97kt but didn't like it because the scope was so low / the cheek piece was so high it was unshootable for me. How ever I really fancy a SFS springer, most likely a Imp or Banshee! But I can't decide which of the two too choose! Which one would you recommend out of the two and why ? ATB Matt
  24. salop sniper
    Guys I agree, but I meant in an "over seeing / mentoring and guidance " manor, not wiping your backside and doing it for you ! ATB Matt
  25. salop sniper
    They sure are a nice rifle to shoot and nice wood IMO is worth paying for also ! Try to get it at £550 and you will be well setup ! Regards Matt
