  1. I`m walking or shooting my grounds 7 days a week - all year through. Grub`s Eskline 8.5 - on my 4th season and going strong £80- I think I paid, - very warm and comfortable. Best Gun boots I`ve ever owned - recommended lads
  2. Ditto to Davy, I shoot the TX as you know lads but in .177 and Rat Works tuned and a heavy gun. I bought another FWB 127 (.22) a lighter gun and I had to get used to her again over time. Then I bought a rare FWB 124 ( .177) and a much more pronounced shot cycle - I gave myself time to get used and you have seen the results. Buy that .177 HW 95 Mitch - it`s the better calibre, as you know.
  3. Shooting Billy& co, It`s about time you lot shot summert ! Compliments lads atb Mark
  4. Well - " you could say" BN is not a " vir- JAY`n" any more !
  5. Nice shooting BN. To shoot a Jay not only says top shooting it also says your concealment / camo` was excellent Compliments BN, atb Mark.
  6. What sort of ranges are you wanting to shoot with FAC Air Mr Baker ?
  7. Well I let that one slip yes mate I`m looking hard at the Ripley pcp avenue , - some fine reviews I must admit .
  8. Matt," some good lads on here , and good respectful RFD`s - just trying to do my homework mate before I spend my bloody hard work`s earnings .
  9. I`m going to keep this very short lads, - We all seek the best, we can/think of at sub 12 ft/lbs - " be honest" don`t we ? I`m looking to finish off the cabinet I keep with a spring rifle - very open to opinions lads - with a laugh as well - twats. I have put a question to an extremely well respected air rifle tuner -" which rifle ???? name, do you consider the best tuned hunting rifle in .177 that you tune " ? whether stage 1 or stage 101 - which rifle / calibre ? please ? I`ve asked ? Before he answers, which sprin
  10. That`s one very handsome rifle PP, Compliments
  11. Thank you for your kind offer Jimmy I just love the trajectory of the .22 Falcons Mitch put me onto in .22 cal and hitting slam hard at 13.43 g/ 622 ft/s - that`s as heavy as I`ll get with my style of shooting, threading through spindle branches for wood pigeons at the moment. I can imagine the heavier pellets do a fine job though on the rabbits etc, etc. FF, In .177 I always use JSB Diablo Exact Express 7.87 g, again from a good nudge from Mitch a good two years back and used ever since in all my .177 rifles bar my 100 which is on AA Fi
  12. Nice shooting Matt. Compliments to you
  13. Hi FF, I can`t speak for heavy pellets but for an average .177 pellet ( 8.4 g ? ) I zero at 38 yds. From approx` 9.7 yds to 38.3 yds the pellet stays within a one inch kill zone in it`s flight and will hit bulls eye/ dead centre, at 16 yds and 35 yds . A good rule of thumb to work with plus, I too, rarely shoot further than 40 yds. Hope this helps any
  14. Friday pay day,- building game. Went for a Friday Chinese and I gave the new apprentice the dinner list, Usual shit. Chips, rice and curry. Singapore chow mein. Beef curry - extra hot with fried rice. You know the score lads, but what I did add to the list was this A " Foo King Special" The Chinese shop owner came out from the cooking area and at the front of a full shop and shouted - " We no do fooking Specials" ! - my apprentice shouted ,- " You do, my boss
  15. Brocock skeleton stock - was it the Brocock elite super 6 ? The accuracy obtainable from these is astounding Mickey right out to 50 yds if required. Only 28 shots though on a 180 bar sweet spot. A favourite for ratting work is the good old BSA Ultra SE. Good luck with your choices
  16. Well I went as I said lads, One air rifle stall out of loads of militia stalls. - Tim Dyson`s. There were a couple of mk2 Air Sporters in pristine condition but in .22 and these only ever got to around 8-9 ft/lbs tops, so not really ideal for classic hunting . £185 each. One rifle did catch my eye though and that was a Paul Storey tuned HW eighty in .177. Sadly it was in a rather worn condition and £ 385 - no thanks. So then I had a quick mooch around the other stalls and one thing "astounded me" - I picke
  17. So the same results , virtually, Matt, with those two pellets. Do try again on the accuracy between the two, in a breeze mate and check which pellet is least affected Happy testing
  18. HW 100 KS .22 HW 100 KT .177 Falcon Accuracy Plus = 622 fps Air Arms Fields = 787 fps 13.43 g 8.4 g = 11.54 ft/lbs and superb accuracy. = 11.56 ft/lbs and superb accuracy
  19. Hi Matt, Good post mate. The bit that matters above all else, especially at sub 12 ft/lbs,- " accuracy always trumps power" - period ! I would pick the most accurate Matt and forget such little difference in power at our ranges. Good luck !
  20. Erm - Tim Would you still be in the market to hehehe do another PS fettle if required ?
  21. What`s the muzzle energy on your Pro Sports Jimmy ? Somewhere in the dark memories I`m sure Rez got upset with low power from one ? ( forgive me if I`m wrong Rez )
