villaman 9,979 Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Some go on about heavy pellets in .177 which i do use myself in one of my guns but these AA Express .177 7.9 gr are lethal at all ranges , i have tried them from 15 to 75 yards in my HW100k . Probably the most accurate pellet i have used in .177 in all of my guns , just a shame the BSA magazines don't really like them ,unless you make sure the pellets are inserted right in , which can be a bit of fiddle in the field . they were shot at 37 yard which is my zero on this set up of HW100k , Aimax scope and AA express pellets and once again off the knee , no pod or sticks involved , like some , SORRY MARK COULD NOT HELP MYSELF I have taken 12 in the last 4 outings in this wood 5 2 Quote Link to post

Like i have said loads of the time know your setup and all cals will do the same I shoot a few different cals as well, and I've tried .177, and yes of course it's more than capable of the job, I just don't like them, and especially don't like my big clumsy fingers trying to load them into mags. 2 Quote Link to post

I do prefer a spring rifle though, to shoot, without bridging shooting skills with pcp`s, whenever possible. Not sure if you`ve noticed but I don`t shoot quarry at night or off feeding trays either. 21st century night vision ,pcp`s, bait stations, nahhh Only saying like x 1 Quote Link to post

mark williams 7,549 Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Using FAP in the HW100 KS .22 and my FWB 127 MK1 .22. I`m using the JSB Exact Express .177 throgh the T Rex, the Pro Sport and the FWB 124. I`ve still not tried the Express through my 100 KT as yet. A great nudge that was a couple of years back Mitch 1 Quote Link to post

Mark_mjs93 164 Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Cracking shooting Vman. Not a huge fan of .177 myself. Always shot .22 myself but as you say, know your guns and capabilities and your golden. They all do the same job. 1 Quote Link to post
