Nice shooting mate . Do you think the thought of ( one shot only) deepens your concentration when "building the shot" ? What cal is your Raider jjm. A 60 yd head shot is superb shooting - hats off to you mate, - well done ! atb

Hw100Kt Help Please
mark williams replied to shreko's topic in Rifle Reviews, Technical Help and Tips
Rapid mk 2 in .177 cal - very good rifle mate. atb -
4LBS 5oz of any mixed fruit, 1 bag sugar / gallon (3lb suger makes rocket fuel) and yeast - boiling water added to the sugar 1st mix well and dissolve the sugar well, add fruit and leave a couple of days. Strain the fruit off and discard add yeast, let nature do the rest in your spotlessly clean bucket. So 5 gallons = 21/22 lbs fruit 5 bags sugar or 15 lbs sugar for high alcohol Yeast (high alcohol) "hick" Presently got 10 gallons of Elderberry port

Hi mate, you do realize "you need a bigger freezer" don`t you ? You sure have chosen the air gun snipers rifle ? Absolutely lethal in .177 on shooting sticks or bipod in a hide. You wont believe the accuracy you can achieve. Great choice mate. atb

Hw100 Aa S510
mark williams replied to hairy biker's topic in Rifle Reviews, Technical Help and Tips
In a HW 100 KT .177 i shoot 52 shots - 4 x 14 shot magazines, i can shoot a 5th magazine of 14 shots when plinking at the range but when hunting i stick to no more than 4 magazines as the accuracy is absolutely spot on. In all the time i have used the HW 100 for hunting i don`t think i have ever needed a 3rd,4th or 5th magazine. atb -
Hope this helps your decision. I use the HW 100 KT .177 in standard form for hide shooting.I much prefer to use .177 cal for threading shots through spindley branches to head shoot wood pigeons. I find that my HW 100 KT is used far more than any other rifle i own, it is lethal on shooting sticks out to 50 yds with ease. On my KT i use the Mamba Lite mtc-scb 4-16 x 40 scope and i`m downright disappointed whenever a miss occurs. On my HW 100 KS .22 i use the Hawke Sport HD 4-12 x 50 which i find a great inexpensive scope on a .22 cal pcp, with a lovely mill dot cross hair, again - extremely

Hi mate, HW 100 kt .177 all the way. Outstanding rifle. atb -
hi mate - 1 gallon = 2lbs elderberries 1 lb blackberries 1 lbs oranges 5 oz sloes 7 pints water 3 lbs sugar High alcohol yeast (port style or red wine) Remove as much white pith as possible from the oranges.Put the fruit and sugar in a bucket and add hot water to dissolve the sugar,( i dissolve sugar and water 1st) Let it all cool . After a few days strain through cheese cloth into a demi john,top up with water add yeast. The fruit can be used again but do add a further 1 lb elderberries to ensure a full bodied port. Just 5 x the above

Shooting Matt , I often shoot Magpies with a heart/lung shot - the Air Arms Field really slams home in .177. The Magpie population has strongly increased around here too. atb

Sat and watched the oak tree and hide from about 10 football fields away (1000 + yds) yesterday afternoon and the crows were "very cautious" of me even at that range, pigeons were fine. I`m going to place about an 18 inch length of broom stick (camo`d up ) out of the hide with a small flappy/ loose strip of camo on the end of it to get them used to a touch of movement and leave it for another week. This is the greatest part of being an air rifle hunter for me, - "fieldcraft" . When i go to the hide in a week or so i will ask one of my sons to come along

Had one of these under levers .22`s as a kid . I played around with it a little, it had a double main spring, which was changed to an airsporter spring heh! heh! if i remember rightly (long time ago) . Had a kick like a mule and a right old "twang" to it - at a guess it produced about 9 or 10 ft/lbs (i preferred my bsa meteor) We would shoot rats with it on the local tip. Memories - have fun bugg but don`t enter a competition with it - just remembered i used to pose with a 4x15 scope on it

Which Springer To Buy?
mark williams replied to AliLangford's topic in Rifle Reviews, Technical Help and Tips
Hi Ali - Rez`s opinion is spot on - 177 is so surgical its quite boring its that accurate with a hw 100 . I could not agree more - so accurate it`s un true. Lads i was hide shooting woodies a week ago with the 100 kt .177 and one woodie was pruning itself at approx` 35 yds. A large branch was between it and my cross hairs but every 30 seconds it raised its head for a check and it caught the AArms diablo smack on first attempt. The HW 100 is still untouchable at present in my humble opinion. atb
