Mr Wilkes 2,913 Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 I’ve walked for a few days now without the catty due to a shoulder injury but this morning I decided to take it and only shoot when there was a ni on guaranteed kill ( less shots- less pain). Anyhow I managed two squirrels for 3 shots using the scout Lt .8 gzk and 11mm steel. 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My shoulder plays up if I spend alot of time on the catch box and I've considered dropping down to a 0.7 band and 9.5 steels, to see if it eases.Trouble is I'm confident with the 11 mils and don't know how I'd fare with the smaller ammo?

Mr Wilkes 2,913 Posted February 9, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 It’s a lot lighter draw than the 1745 double but it’s faster . Yes it helps with the shoulder, if I lift my arm and lock out my shoulder I can shoot.8 but I tend to forget and it ain’t good. I’ve just bought some gzk .6 and I’ll buy some 8.7mm steel to play with till I’m ok. I know what your saying , when your used to shooting a certain set up it takes a lot to move to something else. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Wilkes 2,913 Posted February 9, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 12mm steel ?. If you do hit anything it’ll kill it for sure. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 25,111 Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Here you go mr Wilkes you can buy the triggers on eBay in amongst the catty stuff, cheap from China could possibly convert the wooden one you have if it has enough meat on it to allow you to drill it out 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
