    At the minute im using accupels Si, they shoot well tight groups at 30yrd, I havent done any thorough testing though & im going to give the H&N FTT i won at the meet a try The stock i still have hours of sanding, im going to stain it, then oil and seal it - there will not be any crazy camo dips on this one. I also have to reblue the barrel, bolt plate and magazine housing - its a project gun but i am very happy that it shoots so well! The marksman silencer is brilliant, whisper quiet and it dosnt upset the balance of the gun - the S10 is going to be my walking gun, no Bi-po

    Hello all, Ive had a busy day out shooting, once this morning in somerset 0600 - 1030 then drove 4 hours up to the midlands to collect my S10 and got offered a new permission So this morning i ended up going rabbiting with a farmer down in the glorious somerset countryside..this was totally improptue and i was basically out in my glad rags shooting I didnt bring a stitch of camo down with me! but as i never turn down an oppertunity i went with his .17hmr and him fully geared up shooting his .22LR .. All i can say about that is '.17hmr are great for clearing fields of rabbits! ...

    Well that's your opinion and i respect that After hearing them side by side i stick to saying they are on par ATB Adam

    The new silencer from A&M, it gives the performance of the X3 is 2" shorter and takes the 'twang' out of the shot too. they had there first run out at the THL meet and are being trialed by Davy & Si pianoman won one in the competition They are very very good ATB Adam

    once the rifle has bedded in the power can increase slightly. Each pellet will cause the power to fluctuate so aslong as it dosnt go over 12 with the heaviest or lightlest pellet then its fine and you dont need to worry. For piece of mind you can get it turned down - about a 10min job so shouldnt cost you a great deal ATB Adam Edit: also do you lube the pellets or have you oiled the barrel? this can effect the power

    Not at all mate....i love shooting with a recoiling rifle...but for those guys who love the pcp but carnt afford a full set up that would be ideal.........i love the open sites though...but why not have 2 TX200's one with v-mach and the other with this no recoil system....best of both worlds methinks lol Cant afford a pcp but can afford a springer + post it to Greece + the conversion ? I think its one of those things, the technology is out there to do it but apart from the novelty factor there is no need for it. At the THL meet i shot Marksmans tx200 and that hardly recoiled i c

    I didnt know Dip-it were a rifle servicing facility? have you had the barrel dipped? the coating process could have damaged the barrel or gunked up the inside ATB Adam
  15. AR177
    Im confused isnt that just taking everything that people love about a springer and removing it? all you springer shooters bang on about is 'learning real shooting from a springer' and 'pcp takes the fun out of it' & 'no recoil no skill' etc etc well they have just turned that springer into everything you hate and slapped a PCP price tag on it! ... next thing you know they will put an air tank on it and shorten the cocking handle ..and give it a magazine! You are all now one step closer to being compressed air junkies like the rest of us The open sights are very

    Farmers are very funny people .. they are very wary of strangers taking a random interest in there property. things you have to remember Farmers are very busy people and dont want there time wasted, so when you get there make your intentions clear and dont waffle trying to butter them up - also point out how time consuming it is to keep the vermin away, if the farmer dosnt have to shoot them there is something else he can be doing. They want to be sure that the person they are letting shoot around their livley hood isnt going to put pellet holes in the animals or equipment! Sh

    Ive seen Si's £300 ultra shoot the same as a £1200 AA Evo 2 - a 5 shot group no bigger than a pellet head you cant get better for the money ATB Adam
  21. AR177
    Great write up Rog. very nice scope you have there, the one on Si's springer is fantastic. Practice makes perfect will be good to see you shoot at the next meet ATB Adam

    I have heard Daz's Nutshot silencer in action and it is by far better than any mass produced silencer on the market. If you want one on par with it then go to A&M and get a Custom made X3 or the new Marksman silencer Off the shelf just does not compare! ATB Adam
  23. AR177
    Ahh still i have much to learn ATB Adam

    Great shooting Daz But if your garden is 26yrds long.. and you shot them out of a tree 27yrds away ... your rangefinder must be on the blink ATB Adam
  25. AR177
    I can tell you how to turn the power up ... its probably the best and easiest way to do it ... ... take it to a gunsmiths they will know what they are doing, its legal and the work is guaranteed, it wont cost a great deal either Congrats on your new buy ATB Adam
