Your description of sparkies and plumbers is spot on , I may have someone now fingers crossed , I have always said I want it done , however they just show no enthusiasm , it’s an old pub a big old spot, and we have an elderly mother in law living in , so we would have to work around her so to speak , most of them start by we are very busy , so I do offer they do it in stages , I have offered cash , ( in truth I have had it with them ) this guy has been open he said I have work until autumn this year , I will come and see you then , he did an emergency job for me , came 08:00 in the morning a -

Hi I know this topic will be done to death , around normal shotguns , and maybe I have missed it about the smaller stuff, I know calibers below 243 will not be effected in rifles , at least there’s some sense come through , I have, and use 2 hushpower mossbergs one in 410 and one in 20 gauge , I know the 410 has a full choke , and as yet I have seen no 410 cartridges loaded with steel , and in truth I hope they see sense and don’t force it onto small shotgun calibres , my 20 gauge has a full choke and I am reliably informed , that that choke can go down to half , without aff

Bloody long way from Cornwall , it’s good to see there’s a odd one down there though, -
Good to hear, another lefty , I struggle with modern airguns most are right handed, not ambidextrous.

Thanks piano man for your advice, I have never come across a springer on FAC , and I never would have thought they would be that smooth shooting, as some springers under 12 ft ld , can jump badly, I have a couple here that I really like to shoot, and are very accurate, but they are Sub 12ft , I suppose it sits with the quality of the gun, and how well it has been tuned , more food for thought.

Thanks for that Phil, that’s really helpful , I may drop you a message next time I’m down at Reedness , but I do think I am going to be buying one at some point, any info on the HW100 in FAC ?
-
Thanks for that Phil , can I ask what do you think is the best calibre for them ?
-
Can I ask if anyone has any advice on FAC airguns , I am towing with the idea of getting one, I have no issue with justifying one. Do most makers do a FAC option ? I are they worth the hassle ie the variation fiasco? Are they worth buying second hand ? What’s the pitfalls with them ? What’s the best calibre? can you pick them up second hand ? I notice there aren’t many for sale, any advice is greatly appreciated. ( before I make a decision)
