  1. nice guns, whats that one with the big lamp on it, has a really long stock. and is the other guna a bsa s10?
  2. nice shooting! you must be cold cos your nose is red.
  3. hi, im thinking of getting a lurcher and i just wanted to know if anyone had any pics of beddy,greyhound,collie or beddy,whippet,collie. thanks, Aaron
  4. :D my dad had bought a whole organic lamb (£90 ) and we went up to the farm to collect it. my dad was good freinds with the farm owner and we walked round the paddocks. it was at midday anmd i saw a rabbit bolt at the sight of us. i was suprised as it was in the middle of the day. i asked the farm owner if she had many rabbits around and she said most of them got mixy but there are still a few around. i also saw a squirrel ans a few pigeons. the permission is abotu 30 acres and looked good so i asked if i could hunt on it and she said sure. :clapper: very pleased.
  5. good shooting mate! is there a carbine version of this rifle?
  6. hi, dose anyone know if the guntuff laser range finder is any good? its the cheapest on ebay and i would quite like one.
  7. nah, dont think it would be a good idea. if it was the same as a shotgun certificate then i would nt be aloud to hunt on my own till i was 16. i'm trying to get rid of my dad as it is, i cant put up with another 2 years of "sorry, i didnt see the rabbit/woody/rat till i scared it away..."
  8. the heart of a squirrel or a rabbit is very small and unless you can pinpoint exactly where it is so that the pellet passes throught the heart then your better off going for headshots. to be honest mate, i know zini was doing heart shots but he is a very good marksman and i should imagine he probably disected woodys before hand to find out exactly where the heart is. on any quarry speices the killzone is just behind the eye and with something like a squirrel or a rabbit it wont take long for them to move into a positiojn that you can take a headshot from.
  9. my smk scope was thrown off with every shot, even with nice mounts. it was not very clear as well.
  10. for a spring rifle: something from the HW range, maybe a hw97k or hw77k, or anything in between. for good scopes avoid SMK and go for a nice hawke scope and if your on a budget then JSR. for a pcp ridle then a air arms s200 or s400. although you will need a stirrup pump or dive tank for these as they need filling up with air. the plus side of this is that they are recoilles and much easier to achieve accuracy with than springers. hw77k= £330 jsr 3-9X40 IR= £30 TOTAL: £360 AA s200= £350 jsr 3-9x40= £30 fx stirrup pump:£110 TOTAL= £490. bearing in mind that the AA S200
  11. good clean shots! you should do hft with a shot like yours!
  12. at the midlands game fair i tried out a few rifles and loved the webley venom sidewinder. fell in love with it. it may be my next rifle once have enough money.
  13. there rubbish. i tried one and couldent get consistent groups past 10m. there great plinking guns though.
  14. my s400 is .177 and i have shot 4 rabbits, 6 pigeons and 4 squizzers with it so far. not one single wound shot. the trajectory of a .177 pellet is very flat but with scope reticles getting better this is soon becomeing not a problem for the .22. i like .177 but everyone has there prefferences. if you want the best of both worlds go for a .20 but there is limited pellet choice in this range. the old saying ".177 for feather and .22 for fur" is tosh. this saying most probably originated in the 50's when all air rifles were spring guns and putting out about 7fibs the .22's greater hitting area wo
  15. you can get swivels wich go round your barrel here but be careful and measure the diameter of your barrel. http://uttings.com/
  16. if your having problems with vertical shots, take a look at thisclips, very informative (skip to 3:06):http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S927suL6b78
  17. im thinking of doing the same with my s400 except camoing it. i really am putting it off cos im so scared i'll mess it up.
  18. i have an s400. always aim jsut behind the eye of the woodie and you can nevr go wrong. my rule is on the white band or upwards.
  19. looks great how did you prepare it for the paint?
  20. i havent heard anything abotu either of the guns and there both equally good. if i was you i'd go down your gun shop and test them out, see hoe they feel with you. its all up to you mate as they are both excelent guns.
