Daz39 962 Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Got a call from the other site work has up here in the NE. I'd asked about getting on for the rabbits back in January, but had nothing back. By all accounts they had spoken to my work site who said id done a good job. So they want me to go clear the place of rabbits and pigeons! They needed the usual risk assessment and method statements, but no bother there. I even remembered to ask upfront about shooting buddies this time, not making the same mistake as last time. Go down Tuesday to sign papers and have a walk round with the HSE manager! Get in! 2 Quote Link to post

Daz39 962 Posted May 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 A full size 100 in .177 should give 7-8 mags in the green zone. So 100-120 shots. I can run 8 mags and keep consistent power right along the string. Quote Link to post

Daz39 962 Posted May 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Mine isn't very fussy on pellets. Difference of 5mm at 25 yards on spread between most of the top brands. The H&N FTT and the Wiehrauch F&T specials are my normal choice. But JSB, AA and Bisley are all similar. Good hunting. Quote Link to post
Si1274 17 Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Daz just came back from zeroing mate what a tool it is , the best thing I did was to get rid of the r10 mk2 and get the hw100s .flatter trajectory still hits hard I had know difference in zeroing at 40 yards and shooting at 45 yards there was no drop at all ,and at 50 yards it was only 1 mill dot things are going to be better because I could not get on with the pellet drop with the .22 my hunting should improve dramatically hope to her from you soon mate , sim 1274 Quote Link to post
Daz39 962 Posted May 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Great stuff Si. I often compensate when I don't need to. If I zero at 27-30yrds then I am pretty much flat from 20-45 yrd. 1 dot at 50, 2 at 60. It's a top tool. I'm out next week with Mac on a new perm. One that is bouncing with rabbits and has a 12 foot security fence with 24 hour guards... Never.been.shot.... Gonna be a good night if it's anything like my other work perm. I took 11 in 2 hours the first night on there!! Fingers crossed!! Quote Link to post
