Have a look at bisley shooting ground mate i think tgey do a variety of vintage based disciplines

I would clean the barrel firstly on the logan mate..give it about 30shots to lead t up again and then check zero with the working scope. Maybe the wrong pellets for the rifle unless you have tested a few differing types. And dont rule out parralax error. Work on getting a perfect sight pic and consistent head posistion.

Hello mate,I think there has been some over thinking on this one,I own a hw100s in 177 and I had been having very similar problems with accuracy,I found that I zero,d the gun then when shooting out the van or golf cart I would be missing by about 3inches,I found that at times I was resting on the floating barrel and not the cylinder,I taped up the figure of 8 bracket making it solid on both cylinder and barrel,I now hit pellet on pellet every time,I use mine for pest control a lot and find it the most accurate gun I,ve ever owned,very rarely miss a shot and if I do it would be my mistake and not the gun,WM

Had the same problem a couple of month's back..
Being fresh back into the airgun scene and getting my first pcp (after shooting springers year's previously ) I thought they were totally recoiless..
Messing about with various homemade bench rests to get better stability i found if the barrel or silencer touched anything solid my groups went horrible to say the least!!
Probably common knowledge to you lads but like i say i'm new back to the airgun scene and thought pcp's were totally recoiless.
Goodluck muttley94.. hope you get it sorted

Thanks guys, This could well be the case, when I used springers I always rested on the exact some point but as you say I didnt really consider this with this gun, I too have recently tapped the front end of the gun and perhaps this also had some effect, or perhaps I need to rest on the same point each time/ always use a bipod, I will give this a go!
thanks
I have owned several hw100 and have never had any kind of hold sensitivity with any off them........i would not rest the cylinder on anything though i would however float the barrel can be as simple as removing the o ring from the fig 8 barrel band or modify/buy a single piece band so it just holds the cylinder not barrel no more temp flexing barrel etc Is the barrel tight as in does it turn when screwing silencer on/off as can be a known problem with them again simple fix;) Process of elimination and lots of good advice on this thread Good Luck they are a cracking rifle

nice one buddy

i know i will get the defending Daystate for this And trust me if i had experienced all the above probs i would be screaming from the rooftops but i own an Airwolf and a Panther and both have not skipped a beat have been shot in all weathers and trust me they are used both over two years old now and other than routine cleaning etc i have not spent a penny more on them Just my experience of Daystates i do not agree with the recent designs on the pulsar and the discontinued Mk4 as well as cost but again personal choice
Edited to say i have no experience of the pulsar other than what i have seen in pics but would like to shoot one if the oppotunity arised

i have a 95 in .22 and has a noticable muzzle filp build quaity is fine and this totally standard out of the box accurate as would be expected but would still opt for the 98 as shrouded barrel tames the flip and the stock being adjustable helps with personal fit you wont go wrong with any though mate hard choice i know. Have you shouldered any of the rifles as weight sometimes feels different because of how the rifle fits and balances in your own shoulder

i would not pay more than £350 if in top condition without scope

you can experiment with the camera but without a decent ir source you will limit the range of even the best camera mate the ir block filter on the board camera does what it describes blocks ir light so even with the best ir illumination it wont have any real distance plenty of vids on youtube showing similar builds mate
