Airgun day.

[Underdog 2,337]

Had a day off today and used both my springers. A Chinese underlever thingy, all £69 worth of it mildly tuned and a trigger job and my little 99s.

Made a cracking shot on a 45yarder crow. Plum in the back of the head!

The 99s loves these jsb 16grn pellets.

The pellet was in the crows brain so I dug it out! Look how little rifling marks there is but they really want to stack themselves on top of each other!

The Chinese thingy although low power is amazingly accurate with a good selection of pellets.

I used up my last 17 Superdomes plinking and then went hunting which resulted in a cock pheasant.

I was able to ambush it as it worked it's way towards us down a tree line. There was some hens with it and in the last seconds they did make me.

Their squeaks made the cock stick his head up for me.

On the shot all commotion broke out birds going all directions but my bird was flopping about the pellet having passed through its head.

Distance was under ten yards. Open sights.

Jess has been thinking and listening a bit more of late yes. Alot better.

I always like a fettle and the Chinese stuff is ripe for fettling. I find it more enjoyable, it makes itore mine, it has my input in it.

The bird went to the lads at work, they are all game meat mad at the moment!
