liP 699 Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 Been pinking with the prosport trying to get some groups, not been too successful! I've been using .177 domed diabolo field's which have always been good in the various plinkers I've used. Over the last couple of weeks I've been alternating between the prosport and the hw80 that's in . 22, makes a nice change instead of using the pcp's. Anyway, like I was saying, been struggling so by chance I opened the plinker cupboard looking for an alternative and happened to pick up a tin of diabolo express that I forgot that I had. I bought them from the shooting show a couple of months back . Wow!! what a difference! Back of a cerial packet with 14mm penned circles from the inside of a washer and here are the results, all taken free hand about 20 yds. Top photo has 6 pellets in the circle, didn't want to spoil the pic lol Then this little fella decided to run the back fence. Lucky the phone was close by, that and the fact I spotted him out the corner of my eye as he started out along the neighbours fence first. His lucky day as an ex police officer lives over the back and its an unsafe shot. 1 Quote Link to post

liP 699 Posted May 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 (edited) Fook me Jimmy, you change your plinkers as frequent as I change my socks must be a science behind it lol I've still got me Airsporter S from about 83, can't bare to let them go. I've got all the plinkers that I've ever wanted and the only reason I'd sell a couple is if/when I go FAC, but each to their own buddy Edited May 16, 2019 by liP Spelling Quote Link to post
