Rommels 7 Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) Having been angling for one for a short while now (since the THL meet) I've finally bitten the bullet as of the Saturday just passed and picked up a new BSA R10 MK2 .177 with a tin of pellets (FX) and a handful of targets from adenbourne field sports (Oxfordshire) for £625 (£105 of which goes to the bloody tax man )! Must say that we (myself and Davy) had a good old chat with them having not known there was an alternative to "rob and gun" that close, and I at least was quite impressed, especially as they agreed to stay open late to allow us to get there... Davy also gave into to the sheepish charms of a leather with sheep lined sling (£25 and got some gun oil thrown in free) .. he had to come back with something . Davy had it grouping nicely (in the dark - lamp) out of the box at around 25 yards with the MTC mamba from my AAS410k .177 and I managed 46 at the first course of the southern hunters the following day.. already fallen in love Bit of eye candy P.S Have the .22 AAS410k in the marketplace .... need to claw back the bank balance ATB Charlie Edited November 8, 2011 by Rommels 1 Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 Nice one buddy. I think the mark 2 is a awesome bit of kit. Seen it in action first hand out the box. If you get a chance try Falcon Accuracy Plus .177 pellets in it, you maywell be happily surprized pal. Si Quote Link to post
