    You know what Si, I can see totally where you are coming from and seriously wished I had gone down that route instead of an under lever, ah well, good for you matey, enjoy. Phil

    Can't believe how light the stock is after a wash Jimmy. Well I'm off to Suffolk again next week but I might try this when I get back, it might even make me start to love her a bit......................perhaps. Phil

    That will be because they ARE the same pellet as Bis magnums, H&N make em for Bisley, give the extreme's a go too, bloody deadly in my .177 Brocock. Not the same pellet, they have a hollow domed head. Phil

    It is quite strange with these stocks, all the demo guns at the fairs have a superb light walnut and then when they come, they are all bloody dark. I know you told me what to do Jimmy in order to make it lighter but I'm just not in love with it..................................fcuking springers...........................bahumbug. Phil

    Yes the link is on but not a photo just the link. I use photobucket from the phone very rarely but it can be done. I have PB on both the computer and phone, quite often taking photo's on the phone and installing them to PB actually on the phone then download to the forum if needed. Once you get used to it, very easy and quick to use and you finish up with an actual photo rather than a link such as Phil

    Why don't you try using photobucket, it's free, easy to use and works on every forum that I have been involved in. Phil

    Do you have an A&M cylinder as well Jon by any chance, already missed the HW cocking lever by being a twat so if you have one, I will jump in before you put it up for sale Phil

    Oh my god, that is pretty bad..........................yep, I think you need another scope. Phil

    A while ago I did a load of pellet tests with my HW100, one of the pellets was H&N Baracuda Hunter (not the extreme) and at 25mt, they were very accurate, very small groups. Not the cheapest pellet but I am guessing they will have a fair old thump, I say guessing because I had completely forgotten that I had them....................until now, so I have just put the tin in my bag for the next time out. If I recall, they were the same zero as Bis Mags so shouldn't have to fanny around. Phil

    If you set the scope, most scopes to zero at a given mag setting, get it shooting spot on, then change mag, the zero will also change. If you put it back to the original mag, I assume the zero is spot on again or is that not the case. I have two sets of zero settings, one at 6x and one at 12x on my MTC Genesis scope. I just did a set for 12x if I was struggling to see. To be very honest I have never used the 12x (eyes must be better than I thought) and only did this as I remember when I first started learning holdover principles, it was stated that zero WILL move with different mags and I

    Are you thinking of buying it Jimmy Just been looking at some s/h landies, my god I had no idea they were so expensive. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/used-cars/land-rover/defender-90?atcidk=knc-car-mckv!sbZ2GzoVi_dc!pcrid!!plid!!kword!_inurl%3Aused-cars%2Fland-rover!&gclid=Cj0KEQjwnKzABRDy2pb7nPSazdsBEiQAI4lZQE3y-b57kw7h8IUFQOIoN3nlVQcdgHvoSY4jiJmh5vQaAtRd8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds&dclid=CIaFntDY7s8CFXat7QodrEgGOg Phil

    That is interesting, I have no knowledge on this aspect as I only picked it up last week and been plinking in the garden so not enough time spent using it. There are a hell of lot of them around and not heard of this issue before so from my point, only time will tell but in truth it isn't likely to get much use to be honest although it may go on my TX for a while.

    Thank you matey.........................I can see this being my log in name before long........................................ Rez Phil

    Possibly for the money, a Nikko Mountmaster AO. The one I have just swapped a BSA scope for, whilst not having the best glass is still pretty good for the price. It is quite light, focus down to 10mt, recticle not too thick, easy to read mildots, 3-9x40mm offering a good hunting range. I was always under the impression that these were really crap scopes but they are not at all BUT and there is always a 'but', in my opinion, it needs a sun shade as it seems to flare quite easily and as far as I am aware, they don't make one which is a shame. Now I am going to make one from plastic drain pipe or

    I am going to get some .22 when the FAC comes through, just out of curiosity. I shoot rabbits because the farmer wants to reduce their numbers and that is all. Nobody I know eats them so mine are left for the foxes. Give me a healthy plague of rats, sport for kings and I would be a happy ole tart. Phil

    Now that is fcuking spot on. Ironically, only this afternoon I was looking at one in the village thinking that they HAVE to be the ultimate shooting / fishing wagon but that one is the business. If they were a little more kind to my pocket, I would have one in a flash. Phil

    Less than 2 hours to go Rez, go on get it bought, I would but cannot do without mildots or AO function. Phil

    Serious gun, serious scope, serious price.....................................no envy whatsoever. Phil

    Nice one Jon, I would love a rat perm, sooner have that than a rabbit perm to be honest. Phil

    There you go mate, just what you are after, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Simmons-Whitetail-Classic-3-5-10-x-50-Rifle-Scope/252588648841?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D37123%26meid%3D422dc057b1294b33823e75926afa943d%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D172376148806 Phil

    A little further south on the A1 at Bawtry, White Water Shooting Ground, no rush there. I have not been for some months as it is not on my doorstep but they used to be open wed through to sun and open all day. Skeet, DTL, compak and english sporting with a good cafe. Come off the A1 south at Bawtry and take the last turn off the roundabout, a little lane just before getting back on the A1 North, the shoot can be seen from the motorway and is about 500mt down the lane but take boots or wellies because it is prone to flooding off the fields. A well run ground. Phil
