Nice offer Jay

Ps, your skirting needs painting mate

aye your bloody right there...........lol

old pic and had only recently at the time of taking picture put those 2 pieces back on after building fire place and wall papering........

one job at a time.........lol

 

all the best

 

jay.

Indeed mate

 

I feckin hate glossing - lately I've been wallpapering, tiling, painting - the architraves, skirtings and banisters are the last bits to be done

...... They're getting done, slowly and begrudgingly

 

I'd leave it for the missus but, her cutting in is shite.

 

Atb mate

For that type of money it would be a second hand PCP in all fairness or for just under 200 notes a brand new HW99s .22 then money left over for a nice scope

99s is a great little hunting gun and in .22 as well

What part of Yorkshire you in pal? If you are anywhere near Pickering, try Pickering airguns for a second hand rifle, with a budget of £300 you will have a plenty of options.......scoped and ready to go

near York. Wanting to spend money wisely!

 

OK 177 with heavy pellets? What type of pellets?

 

Ok what make of scope?

 

Want to get a few opinions before I try a gun shop and thought my money might go further in a private sale?

 

Thanks for your opinions so far.

[Jonjon79 13,340]

The pellets will be decided by the rifle mate - they're all different.

 

My main hunting rifle likes JSB Heavies but, one that you buy might not.

..... Testing is all part of the fun

 

Just because I prefer heavies, doesn't mean you will - you may like lighter ones with a flatter trajectory.

...... This is a funny ol' game.

 

Once you've got your rifle, give me a shout - I'll send you some samples of quality, different weight pellets to try

 

Hawke scopes are a good place to start for airgun use

Just been on free ads gamo fox? no scope £200, should I be wary? need seals doing? Really like the idea of synthetic.

 

To me this gun will be a tool of the job, no frills just effective hopefully.

Moley has or had a phox and did very well with it but just be careful buying second hand from private sellers you don't know.

For what your going to be doing and your budget I would be tempted with Mark's suggestion of a brand new smk p900 pcp as they really do get VERY good reviews from all that have them.

They are light, have charge indicator and with your change from £300 you will almost get a scope and a pump if you spend carefully.

[mattwhite 1,993]

Have alook at this link pal.

This one is second hand though but a good price.

[secretagentmole 1,701]

OK how about a British made PCP, scope, pump, gunbag, pellets and targets?

Hows that for a bundle? Brand new, with warranty, delivered!

Wish they did the .177 last year, would have had that instead of the .22 I bought. It is a good gun, basically a BSA Ultra, but that is a complete outfit!

Just save up mate and don`t buy a bag of shit.

 

HW 100 in any format, end of the story.

[Rez 4,957]

ok, some of you will laugh, £300 tops ,preferably not that! given stirrup pump so might be able to do without bottle.

 

Seen some gamo fox and cayote and told they almost a bsa

 

Anyway gun or new childseat for car?

Gun.

 

They are BSA's mate. Quite literally.

 

You could get a new single shot ultra for 400... just food for thought.

 

Let us know what your decision is... and for god sake get some image up

You can get a new BSA single shot Ultra for £400, but £84 more sees you with a multishot XL (under Gamo name), scope, pump, bag, pellet and targets. Delivered!

[charlie caller 3,654]

You can get a brand new ultra single shot for a hell of a lot less than £400 round my way, £344 in fact, not too far away.

Evening, been having a think and a talk to a few people including gun shops.

 

If i push my budget a Walther rm8 varmint ? for just over £440 with scope and silencer new, or a hw 110?

 

Yes pushing the budget but save up and buy better with warranty?

 

Your thoughts appreciated.
