    John I hate to say this but I remember them when they hit the shops the first time around, I wish I didn't but no escaping the fact I do. Phil

    Teamwork, you get the meat and mom does the cooking, sounds like a good plan to me. Phil

    I will get you those mate with pleasure. Is this where you say..............you should have bought a Prosport.....................I may come to that decision and if I really get into the springer...............I may NEED to buy one at some stage. Need a .22 first though. Phil

    You can be a judge on mine then Jimmy when we meet to see if Sean can make it better although I'm not saying it is bad but I don't have anything to compare it with. I know there is a guy on another forum who does some wonderful things with TX and Prosport according to some feedback I had but it is difficult to know if my TX is as good as it gets. We will see Jimmy. Phil

    I think everyone check zero before a shooting session and make adjustment as required. I have often thought the movement in transit can cause a shift. Phil

    So are we going to see a photo of the new hide yet Mark, I assume this is the one you showed a photo of...................or did not show a photo of in a previous post. Phil

    They have a lot of fans on another forum and I have just tried some, seem spot on on a brief test with the pellets given to me. I am going to get some along with express and have both zero values on the scope. Certainly hit bloody hard Si. Phil

    I know AA are made by JSB Mitch but is there any difference at all between AA and JSB Express in .177 Phil

    I bought what I can only describe as a short zipped pencil case which takes 3 mags and keeps any dirt away from the mag so ideal for using a touch of spray oil AND keep ing them clean and whats better, it cost £2.50 from a shop called 'The Range', you may have one in your area. If you want one Mac, let me know and i will get you one next week. Phil

    As it happens, I was flicking through the pages of Air Gunner, not a mag I normally take but one I bought on holiday as there was a review in there of the 110 and whilst I think we all take some of these reviews with a pinch of salt, the editor states he got 120 shots through a .177whilst the gauge was still just in the green sector, with 14fps across the whole string. If that is to be believed, then that guy having a shot count of 40 doesn't seem to be in keeping with other statements made in the press. I cannot see in any way this new gun is going to have a performance like that. Come on

    Ooohhhh that is bloody good Mark. I don't think I needed to put up my post of a few minutes ago, JSB Heavies. Phil

    A friend of mine sent about 50 of these pellets for me to try, comparing against Bisley Mags in the HW100. Now after I had been to the range today, I had about 20 pellets left so 10 mins ago, I popped into the garden and shot them in the TX. Okay they shot about one mildot lower than FAP but apart from some fliers which was me, they grouped well ( grouped well for me bearing in mind I am still on a learning curve with this gun). Has anyone else used them in a TX and how did you find them/or still using them. Are springers in general better with lighter pellets or does it make any differenc

    Now that I agree Si, not the twat bit but if you say so mate but loading the TX although I'm getting better. Phil

    My RFD had two in, the .177 has gone so had a play with the .22 and must agree Mitch, I found loading the mag quite easy. Not sure how much lighter the rifle is but deffo lighter. From what I can see, it looks like the full HW air cylinder with a revised position carbine barrel so a better shot count. The RFD wouldn't let me shoot it in the range but when I go back in Mon/Tue as my wife is looking for a little gun, I will push it to get some pellets through if he will pop a scope on for me........................well I'm hoping so. Phil

    That was a cracking deal Mac. I really fancy that scope, never actually looked through one but like the idea of it. Phil

    Life can be a bitch at times can't it Phil

    12lt bottle, you must have 3 shredded wheat each morning to lug that around. What gun did you get or have I missed that somewhere. Phil

    Cheers lads, I just thought that if they're both similar lengths sticking a mod on the end of the TX is so obviously going to add a few inches If you was to put a moderator on a TX,you will have to remove the plenum insert first,pretty easy to with a 5p coin.unscrew anti clockwise. Added to that, you also need an adapter to marry the internal thread of the barrel to the mod depending what mod you used. I used a stumpy to keep the weight down. Phil

    Ihave the MTC Genesis which is much finer than my Hawke Varmint but with the IR it makes this scope very usable Si and to be honest, I think the red centre is so good, I would not want to be without it now. Phil
  23. philpot
    I don't have this but a bit of lateral thinking here but something I do fancy. BSA Ultra or Scorpion tuned and modified by Airtech MTC Viper Connect 4lt air tank and whip trigger stick tripod (that I do have) Phil

    Is he giving you the gun Si or are you doing him a favour sorting it out. Externally, it looks in good condition. I remember coverting one of these that my pal had. We had permission to shoot rats on a potato dump on a big farm estate and recall so very clearly at the age of about 14 sitting with my BSA Meteor glancing with such envy at John's gleaming new Airsporter but never had one. Often wished he fall off his bike on the way back and not want to shoot anymore so he would give it to me, strange thoughts pass through a kid's head. I wont talk about the other thoughts I had however.

    Judging by the forecast, tomorrow looks more of the same, Oh dear me..................
