zini 1,939 Posted January 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 (edited) Hi Simon, OK buddy the top photo has all of us apart from me in it. From left to right Ste, Paul, Chaz, Andy no 1, Davy and far right is Andy no 2. I took the photo buddy. Davy's flying the flag for spring rifle shooting with his TX200HC...probably explains why he won! He was just zeroing the springer there buddy and used his deadly .177 AAS410 for the shoot itself Si Edited January 24, 2011 by zini Quote Link to post

zini 1,939 Posted January 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 im gonna give them a try see if they are any good in the hw100 atb gary Hi Gary, If the Falcon Accuracy Plus pellets suit your barrel buddythen they are well worth a try as they are very soft pellets so grip the lans and grooves well flying true and are very light in .22 calibre at only 13.4 grain making for a flatter trajectory in .22. I did some calibration work with them as well and their BC is the largest I have come across (better than magnums and all the Air Arms and FX) with only a 63 mm drop from a lased 25 metres to a lased 40 metres, making their a staggering BC 0.051 On vermin they are deadly due to the fact that they are very soft lead the skirts really do mould to the sides of the rifling and when they connect with grey matter the skirts turn into a flat circle with a 8 mm diameter making for a lot of damage. I think that both Andy and Davy were shocked as well as me with what damage they do on rats. Look at the pictures mate there is a hell of a lot of blood and usually one shot was an instant kill on them rats less for one rat on Sunday that I hit in the top of its neck at the bottom of a bush, and it jumped around before getting stuck in between a folk of a bush by its neck and dying. Quality pellets Si Quote Link to post

Well done on that 17mm group too.......but its no good at all if you cant hit the bloody targets in the lanes is it, fancy Davy beating you ATB. Bill. We all were beaten by a better man on the day buddy, I cant dispute that fact . Davy shot really well on Sunday and only missed 5 kill zones out of 30 which is good going. I thought that i did ok for my second ever attempt though at HFT, I did manage to beat my last PB I started off slow, not missing the targets but not hitting many KZ's so only getting 1 pointers instead of 2. It took me a little time to settle, but I managed to catch up in the later targets hitting a long string of 2 pointers. Second place with a .22 wasnt so bad really and its wasnt about the winning, more about the crack and fun. Next time i will have had more time using the rifle and new lighter pellets so hope to beat 48 and get in the 50's to put abit more pressure on Davy Si. Quote Link to post
