gurtwurz 793 Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 hi lads, i just picked up a new hw95ks in .22(of course!!) for using on the survival courses and while i'm suffering from w r's cramp, sorry, tennis elbow in my leading arm, which is making das kraut a tad uncomfortable to use after a couple of mags worth on the target practice. hopefully the lighter '95 will be a lot easier on it. so i'm torn about which scope to use with it now, the super moonlighter'll be too heavy while my arms buggered so i'm thinking about a small simmons wtc 2.5-8x32 that i used to sit on the r10, or a hawke eclipse ir should i decide to go lamping with it, although thats unlikely as i'm suffering from lackofsoddingtimitis still...still, i'll know by tonight and stick some piccies up of her as and when i get chance, preferably having used her in the field by then. cheers, wurz Quote Link to post

gurtwurz 793 Posted November 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 (edited) a hawke was found at the back of the cupboard, an old map pro 4-16x50 so that'll do for now si, just gotta get out and play with her asap mate!!! hoping for a still, zeroing type morning tomoz and then we'll see... dont think i'll be doing any long shots for a while tho, been a while since i shot a springer outside the garden cheers mate, john Edited November 2, 2010 by gurtwurz Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Hi John, With your standard of shooting buddy, it wont take you long to be hitting the 50 metre shots with it quite comfy A bit of paper punching and practicing good trigger technique and follow through and you will soon be making some great groups.
