    I had a shoot with one a while back, an original mod 45 I think, it could have been a 35 my memory is not the greatest, solid rifle and shoots straght at 40ish years of age, nice in the shoulder, nice finish, smoothe cocking action, obviously some of that is down to how it was looked after but as they say. . . . Don't make them like they used to The misses grandad still uses it to take woodies out of his orchard for the pot, uses the original iron sights aswel, thats the only air rifle he has owned, he swears its never needed fixing all the time he has had it from new, granted he pro

    Will he be coming to the meet darryl? Sure we could find a steel plate with an 8mm hole in it for him to hide behind He can bring his own lager though! Im not sharing drinks with the enemy! Spose it would make a good decoy hanging around outside a warren .atb. .ste.

    Im in Can't copy paste though so if someone would be kind enough to add me to the list when they put there name in that would be great. Also if I could get a pack of .177aa pellets from you on the day davy that would be great and save me a trip into town let me know if you dont have any in stock, as I will need to get some a.s.a.p, running dangerously low .atb. .ste.

    Pianoman you are one baaaad assss mother f**ker :laugh: .atb. .ste.

    Sure, the scales would be perfect for sorting out that problem, I agree that one in fifteen is a lot, I thing weighing them will solve your problem, if they are 1" low at 30m would that make them lighter or hevier than the norm?(im not a .22 man) either way it will be a big difference on the scales and will stand out like a sore thumb Scott, when you sorted your pellets did you have any rouges that did not fit into your 3 main weight categories? Just out of curiosity .atb. .ste.
  13. rossi_j
    That is definatly a weight thing due to it going low, if it was just due to loose fit would go anywhere around the group, I use pellets with bent skirts in the garden sometimes and they aren't that far out, that would be a big difference in weight simon, a lot more than the small diferences scott is talking about. .atb. .ste.
  14. rossi_j
    An inch lower at 30m with pellets from the same tin, bin them imo. I dont feel my pellets entering the breach as they are loaded by bolt but I would be very unhappy with that type of performance and would be looking for a new pellet brand, that is very poor quality and a very big inconsistancy in my opinion pianoman. How many are like this in an avarage tin, couldent you sieze your pellets rather than weigh them if you want to iron that out Just a little surprised by that pianoman, not something I would tolerate from my pellets. At your level of shooting that is letting you down

    Make sure its o.k first, as land owners dont like to get on the wrong side of the local shoot, most will actually tell you not too. Dont wory about the 12g boys they get jelous because some pay £20-£30 + vat per bird :laugh: One for the pot dosent seem to bother anyone, just get it in your poachers pocket quick :laugh: .atb. .ste.

    Yea, not at the moment though, only during season .atb. .ste.

    For target comps yes, dont think I could be botherd for day to day usage personally to be honest, each to there own It definatly improves on consistancy, but for everyday use im not sure the reward will out weigh the effort. Sp for putting in the work and doing it, and proving to yourself it works, did you notice a difference on target accuracy atall? I know bettering the consistancy will improve accuracy and was wondering if you can see this gain out at 50-70yds as at 35 should be pellet on pellet anyway It would have been great to shoot before and after pellet sorting groups at s

    Sorry matey, think i didnt make myself clear. I meant that, as such, you take some enjoyment from carrying out the pest control, and so as such do not feel the need to completely remove all of a certain type of pest (i.e rabbits) using the 'most' efficient method you possibly could. The landowner is also obvously happy with the job that you are doing, having reduced the population to a manageable level they are happy for you to come and shoot certain numbers of say bunnys but leave some, rather than expecting you to be there night after night until they were all gone. The thing i meant about c

    You'll have to practace shaking your own hand, whilst balancing the trophy on your head (after a few cans ) Anyway, a little birdy tells me owens going to be taking it back with him That could be an uncomfortable journey home :laugh: All the best tony .ste.

    I shoot all my quarry as 'pest control' I dont conserve them for 'sport', I just dont need to wipe them out, just keep the numbers down, wich we are doing quite efficiently. If you start calling it sport you make it sound like your doing it for fun, weather you are or not dosent realy matter, but you dont tell people you are or you may fall foul of the law with certain species. Example, clay pigeon shooting (sport) Pigeon shooting (pest control) Thats the way I see it anyway. . . The owners are happy with what we do, the damage the rabbits do is minimal in comparison to when we star

    My comment only represents me personaly, lads on here have had massive bags of rabbits and rats and ferals over the winter months, carrying out serious 'pest control' I personaly accompanied a couple of top lads on here to a ratting job, that was serious pest control and I dare say I was taking rats from places a dog couldent Remember there is a hell of a lot that goes un poasted FACT! you wont get a true representation of what goes on from reading a couple of posts on here .atb. .ste.

    Me and my shooting pal, go out in all weather, we only have a small area to shoot so ferreting during the winter would just kill it, we are more than happy to do 'pest control' for the land owners taking between 0-6 rabbits a night and plugging away at it, and having a laugh while we do it. 'pest control' dosent have to be drastic, just under control in our case Its just a matter of permision, I would love to ferret in the winter, course dogs, shoot pigeon over crop with shottie, take foxes skulking around pheasant pens, but dont have the land. I love hunting by any means, I would
