Nv Ratting With The Impact

[Pelletpower 203]

Ive just got in from my first real few hours shooting with the impact.

I have to say I can't emphasise enough how quick you can reload for second shots if you need them or to move on to the second target if it hasn't moved. As some of you may know I changed the Vulcan to side lever cocking and was happy but it doesn't come close to the positioning of the impacts side lever.

I managed to shoot 23-25 rats this evening, picked up 15-16, it was all recorded and will be in my next video.

One problem I have with the impact is a couple of times this evening one of my mags wouldn't let the probe through due to miss alignment, caused by the see through plastics top slightly moving round a little bit, it should be an easy fix though. The other mag I have works perfect so it's definitely no issue with the gun, just the spring tension in the mag I think.

 

A few people have been asking if I was happy with the gun but as I've not really used it I couldn't comment, well as of tonight I can officially say...yes I like it.

I still need abit of range time to get used to it but so far it's ticking all the boxes.

Been doing a bit myself lately on my mates farm a good laugh I have no gun though any recommendations for a newbie at shooting not wanting to spend a fortune

Bsa ultra se is a great gun for the money mate.

Your best bet would be get down to your local RFD and shoulder a few see what feels comfortable.

It's due to the mag tension Spring. I'll be looking at mine later today

In the case of the.177, the magazine is a poor fit for the rifle. It is not designed for the impact. It is a generic fx mag, and is a fairly loose fit. The first one was faulty, as you chambered a pellet, it was shaving a small piece from the skirt causing it to be unstable and fly all over the place.

looking forward to the rating vid pp

I've been well tempted with the impact my local rdf has one in!!

just changed a couple of rifles in the last month and am well happy with them.. airwolf/us s510

docent take me long to get board so i can see one being mine soon

mag problems on a 1600 guns not good though... but that said the wolf jambs with short pellets!!

seems know matter what you pay you can't have it all!!

saw a vid on youtube for a Slovakian rip off, looks like its made from meccano and imported by aldi

I saw that as well Si, out and out copy.

 

I have a friend in London who got the first Impact in the country but as far as I know, he has had no issues with mags at all and seriously loves the gun. It is without a doubt a very clever piece of kit but as yet I can't find myself loving it, I WILL get the Wildcat though sooner or later.
