thursodog 353 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 (edited) Right folks i've decided to sell my old .177 Titan PCP which is still in tip top condition and working order. I'm looking to but a small light weight multi shot .22 for my 6 year old son to shoot rabbits along with me on my perms. He loves being out and about with me but is frustrated as my hw80 is just no use and i'd like a multi shot so that he gets an optimum chance at a bunny or two. Ideally i'd prefer to stay full power as my older son enjoys a bit of vermin control too. Any suggestions on a small multi shot that they could use out in the field. The rifle would be locked in my gun cabinet and only obviously only taken out by myself. He's been punching paper for a while now with my pcp on on a black and decker bench, the stock is just too long and overall the Titan is too heavy for him, saying that his shooting is now good enough for some close range rabbit and rat shooting. Cheers in advance. CW. Edited June 5, 2012 by thursodog Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 (edited) I would say a BSA Ultra pal in .177 for him. Small, light, very safe with the cocking system and accurate as any sub 12 air rifle so will grow in terms of achievement along with your son. Si. Edited June 5, 2012 by zini Quote Link to post
risingfriend 1,042 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 hi mate i will second what si said, i just brought my son an ultra multi and hes only 8. great little rifles. Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 S200, series one, no MMC, which can be a bit of a problem, just a nice simple rear bolt. The first model with the two piece stocks are easily modified for the smaller shooter, then when he grows a bit, just put the full sized rear stock back on! Quote Link to post
dave goodall 10 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 ultra or falcon fn12 light hunter or brocock all light hunting tools Quote Link to post
thursodog 353 Posted June 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Cheers guys, Yep Si, thats a great looking rifle, i forgot you showed it on the dvd. I'll be investing on one shortly. Can't wait to see his face when i get it. Cheers Chris. Quote Link to post
Lewis Ste 245 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 I think I'd go for the brocock if I was righted but im a lefty they are abit less common and to be honest both will out shoot any average shooter like myself Quote Link to post
robwelsh 354 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 I'm sure some place was getting rid of ultras for 270, someone did mention it..maybe Darryl Quote Link to post
villaman 9,980 Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Hi Another one for the ultra great gun and safe cocking Quote Link to post
rabbit router 1 Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 (edited) hi thursodog i agree with zini about the ultra as a 42 year old newbie to the ultra and pcp's in general, the ultra is a fantastic rifle , its through watching zini's youtube vids that swayed me to invest my hard earned cash you'll not regret getting one atb Andy Edited June 15, 2012 by rabbit router Quote Link to post
AR177 588 Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 Ive seen Si's £300 ultra shoot the same as a £1200 AA Evo 2 - a 5 shot group no bigger than a pellet head you cant get better for the money ATB Adam Quote Link to post
thursodog 353 Posted June 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 Hi folks, Yeah i'm sold on the Ultra, i'll have to sell some stuff first though. Anyone want an Titan PCP with a Bushnell Banner night and day scope for 200 quid. Great condition. Cheers for the heads up guys. Chris. Quote Link to post
nasher1 258 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Before you get carried away and sell your titan set-up for £200 that is very cheap for nearly a collectors gun why not see if someone wants to swap for a ultra or a similar PCP Quote Link to post
thursodog 353 Posted June 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Good point nasher thanks, i'll get some pics on as its in great condition with a beautiful walnut stock. Shoots really well and keeps pressure with no problems. Was putting pellets ontop of each other with it at 25 yards yesterday but can't afford to keep it. Atb Chris. Quote Link to post
thursodog 353 Posted June 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 This is my Titan i'm about to put on the classifieds. Ultra here we come. Atb CW. Quote Link to post
