  1. scope question

    in General Airgun Discussion

    Posted

    thinking of buying new scope and would like to know which scope i saw on The Airgun Show where the presenter said that the holdover on the milldots stayed the same no matter what magnification you were on ie at 30yrds on x4 would be 3 milldots then if you zoomed in to  x8 would still be 3 milldots  . Reading this back i hope you know what i mean and can tell me what this feature is called

    live in mid terrace with quite a large garden . We get a large number of jackdaws sitting on the roof if i shot them on the roof they are bound to fall next door which i dont want . How can i tempt them down into the garden below the 6ft fencing ?

  5. Is The Hw 100 The " Perfect Gun" ?

    Just got a hw100 did a lot of research on line and i must say the best all round gun . BUT one thing that gets me is the safety catch you cant put it to safe without it being cocked . I know there is no need to have it safe if its not cocked but it would be nice to show all around that it is safe with the safety on

    Why ? at least you know its not cocked unlike BSA and the others .

    If you cant put the safety catch on then you know its in safe mode , can't see a problem myself .Never heard of anybody moaning about it before

     

    just me then

  8. Hft Which Gun ?

    in General Airgun Discussion

    I was looking at the HFT shooting at the Northern Shooting Show a few weeks ago and saw a variety of guns being used. One chap I had a brief word with on this very subject said the Scorpion was a better bet but if you already own an Ultra, perhaps fitting a longer air cylinder would give you the shot count you needed.

     

    Airtech sell longer cylinders for not a lot of dosh. A reg fitted will also increase the shot count and maintain even pressure to the shots.

  11. Rear Dif Wind Up ?

    It's stuck in 4wheel. The mechanism is jammed. Jimmneys can sometimes lock up, especially when carrying a heavy load.

     

    With the car on flat ground and engine running observe the front prop while an assistant pushes the vehicle. If the front prop moves it's locked in 4w.

    its always in 4wheel its not got 2 wheel its got 4 wheel high and 4 wheel low

  16. Rear Dif Wind Up ?

    bought a suzuki grand vitara 08 plate 1.9 diesel 6 months ago in that time it has been back and forth to the garage . The problem is after you have driven about 12 to 15 miles you get a rumble from the back axle when pulling away in first or reversing this is so bad it feels as though back axle is going to fall out . Been back to suzuki who said its rear dif wind up reverse it up the road about 100yrds it will unwind also they changed my tyres round put the front to the back . As i said this only happens when you do more than 12 miles ? Any thoughts as to what this could be as i dont believe its dif wind up i had a disco before this and never had to keep reversing that up the road.
