  1. When charging my BSA Ultra with the webley ultra glide stirrup pump,after on a short time it gets impossible to pull the stirrup pump up stroke,it seems like there is a vacuum trying to stop me from pulling the up stroke,has anyone got any ideas how to fix this problem. Please reply in technical help section.

  3. Get a 12 gauge for flighing birds,preferably a multi choke,if you are buy a fixed choke gun ideally it should be 1/2 1/4 or 1/4 1/4 don't start with to tight a choked gun on pigeons.
  4. You won't regret buying it,it,s a great stealth gun,great were noise issues might be a problem,with me it has opened up extra land were I could not shoot because of noise issues.
  5. Just had confirmed that Biakal 410 Hushpower synthetic stock is full choked.
  6. I did some pattern testing today at 30mtrs, no6 shot 3ins shell,I was very impressed with the pattern produced more than enough for rabbit ect at this range,also tried some 2.5ins shells at same range no6,not as good a pattern as the 3ins but I think for rabbit just about do-able that being the 2.5s max range. What impressed me was the noise levels,the 2.5 shell was wisper quite and the 3ins a bit nosier. Although I have just purchased the Biakal 410 Hushpower synthetic shock and I am new to this gauge I am very impressed the gun, it fits and feels well balanced, construction is good robus
  7. I was told that the black synthetic Baikal 410 Hushpower guns are full choked,can anybody confirm this.
  8. Hi mate,these Bretton guns are cylinder choked and were originally use for solid slug carts,a cracking gun to use,but limited on range due to there being open choked.
  9. New legislation has been introduced by the Government which will make it an offence to fail to properly secure airguns in order to prevent them falling into the hands of children. From 10th February 2011, owners will be liable for a fine of up to £1,000 if they do not take reasonable precautions to stop unauthorised access to their airgun by people under 18.
  10. In the nicest possible way that has to be the understatment of the year. In the nicest possible way, if it works use it.
  11. 4oz is best for holding,6oz is a bit easer to handle and will cope with most situations (a good alrounder).I do also use a 10oz but only on brambles and you have to put up with occational bounce off.
  12. I use a 10oz net were there are brambles with a lot of success ,the lighter nets tend to gather a lot of debre,use the lighter nets on cleaner ground.
  13. My personal choice,I find that shorter barrels (say 26")are better for hide and roost shooting also bolting rabbit,28" a good all rounder,30/32" barrels you will find are a bit slower to pick fast moving targets at close range but good to use on high targets. Remember that longer barrel length don't mean longer distance,choke choice and the ability of the shooter determines that,a good general choke set up for pigeon is 1/4-1/2,at the end mate yes listen to what experienced shooters have to say but when you pick up and put to your shoulder the gun you are looking to buy if it dos,nt feel righ
  14. stocko bought a red dog for a lot of money (cant think of its name) it was dug out dead on a dig at holmfirth area , thats the dog you may of seen him buy ,not jester , this red dog was grip i know the original owner, i got mixed up with jester and jasper.(rocko)
  15. Yes tried new batteries in shop,shop says it was a faulty collar,all sorted now got a new replacement,just thought I'd post to see if other owners had any similar probs.
  16. I just purchased a Deben mk3m and two (ferret)collars,after a short while one of the collars started having problems switching on/off,yes I went through all the possible reasons with no luck so I decided to return it to the store for a refund, on talking to the assistant he told me that the previous wk he had another Deben collar (terrier)returned with same problem,has anyone else had the any problems with these collars.
  17. I've had jills for years mate and never breed or mated them or injected to come out of season,they themselves come out of season. "I've never have a problem mate".
  18. Goldfinger I think you have got that wrong I have never heard of anybody with a 2ins mesh longnet 4ins yes but not 2ins unless somebody knows different I use a 2.25ins mesh board to tie thus I end up with a 4.5ins mesh I think the 2ins is a half mesh Cheers Gareth Cheers sam007 for clearing up my confusion.
  19. Looking to purchase a new long net,what would be the best mesh size 4" or 2".
  20. I would use 1/4 choke mate,a good all rounder for pigeon,I find roost shooting can be quick reaction shooting at times.
  21. Cat food most of the time and occational pigeon ect.
  22. I use a magnet and has proven it's self to suck them in from 200 yds plus many a time.
  23. Do's the .22 BSA Lightning have a choked or unchoked barrel,with the barrel only being 10ins I'm assuming that it is unchoked?.
