Dusting The Cobwebs Off The Old S10

Thanks Archie. I sometimes envy what some folk have and as nice as the gardens are I would be fecked If I was to be looking after them. Weeding... Grass cutting...etc etc. so yes a good place to enjoy somebody else's space!!

I will happily stick to my concrete yard and postage stamp of grass which has bald spots where the dog has pissed.

 

LS. Best of luck and let us know how you get on mate.

 

Ghilles. I could do with someone local to let me have a play with their .177. Not that the missus would let me have another gun................... However!! What she doesent know..!

good stuff, super too.

 

 

moxy..one thing about rapids is that awsome shot count, i dont think i could use a falcon again lol..35 shots per fill! eeek!!

My rapid is FAC so unless I wind it down I don't get the shot count. Unregged I get about 40 shots before I loose the sweet spot.

 

Cheers.

 

 

owch! i use 300 ish and about 150 left...reged and tuned to about 11.2-11.6 depending on pellet.

Ghilles. I'm happy with the low shot count. To be fair I expected that with it being an early mk1 and FAC. So no disappointment.

I just have to make each shot count. Lol. Sometimes that's a big ask and I would probably be better throwing the rifle at the rabbits.

It can be but it runs sweet and does just a good job anywhere between 20 and 30.

i've been thinking about it for some tbh..just didnt fancy the 40 shots side to it.

[moxy 617]

If you got a FAC mk2 regged you would increase the shot count. Certainly not to be disregarded.

 

But i find a low shot count is more than enough. I mean, if you made all forty shots count, that's one hell of a heavy trek back to the motor.

Or if your a shite shot like me you spend as much time back at the motor re filling your bottle than you do shooting.

Moxy, I thought I was the only one, I get about 30 clean shots out my 200 but realistically on a days shooting, 5 zeroing then the rest on anything I get back so I rarely shoot much when I'm out hunting, unless I don't see anything around then I go back to the car with the bottle and hit targets, suits me
