    That would scare the hell out of me, 30% lighter, mine is VERY VERY light to start with. Phil

    I admire your drive to do such a big job and the best of luck with it. I might see you one day at Humberside Shooting Ground with your gun. Phil

    Just as a matter of interest and please forgive me for saying but even if you have the ability to produce such a gun, how will you fund the equipment to manufacture a gun or do you have some contacts who will allow you to use their equipment. I wish you well with your project if you are able to go ahead. What area of Humberside are you as a matter of interest. Phil

    A wise man Mark.

    I managed the same trick with a magpie this morning. Could have a bit of fun as I found they like to pop into the garden to take any'fat balls' that fall through the wire hanger so tomorrow I will break a couple up and wait................... Phil

    Okay this older old tart forgot to post the junction...........................see that is what happens when you get older. J31, A57 https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Killamarsh,+Sheffield,+Derbyshire+S21+2JU/@53.3294576,-1.3518945,13z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x48799e8e26e79c0b:0xb61faf216609be58 I think that should do it.,,,,,,old tart signing off Phil

    M1 Sheffield as stated you old tart https://www.customstock.co.uk/ There is also a 33mt indoor range a couple of junctions away on the M1 so a double visit could be in order. http://southyorkshireshootingclub.co.uk/ Phil

    Okay, I will leave the high mounts on Mitch.
  10. philpot
    I believe that they welcome you to pop in to their Sheffield workshop so if the distance is not too great, a visit would be on the cards. They are only about 10mins from the M1. Phil

    On my HW100KT I have a Hawke Varmint 4-16x44 which is actually 50mm outside diameter. I used standard Hawke mounts but recently fitted high mounts to take an add-on NV unit which gives me 15mm clearance from the barrel. In fact I didn't need the high mounts so will be switching back to standard but cant give you the gap but would have thought standard mounts would be fine.Looking at mine, I recon you will get a 3-5mm clearance approx.

    The RM8 looks very good value for money...............................but it stops there. I had one, front end heavy after you have walked with it for ten mins and serious issues with power dropping. There have been quite a few guys with the same problem. Mine started on 11.4ft/lb dropping to 9.6 ish, can't remember exactly. Airtec advised that he had 4 RM8 guns in with the same problem and was designing a new regulator as the reg fitted was rubbish and would just keep breaking down. My option was to replace the air bottle with a BSA R10 bottle and reduce the barrel length as it was too long

    I saw an HW at the range the other week with a stunning CS Custom stock, the grain was a sheer delight and a sporter to boot Mac so you would have loved it mate. Phil

    It is possible that the wad strayed and hit the thrush, more than enough clout to knock out a small bird. Just a freek accident. Phil

    Nice read Mac, it's great to get the kids/grandkids involved and watch them get better and better up to the point when you NEED to leave them at home, getting too good. Phil

    Okay thanks. Decent prices. Phil

    They don't spend the money to make a good rifle great because they sell too many rifles to people who are not members of any forum so are not likely to know that modifications can make such a difference. Just as an example, I know 4 people who own airguns and would never think of joining a forum.........thhe perfect customer... Phil

    I saw the shroud Si Pittaway had fitted by Ratworks, very very quiet. To be honest it was the shot count that always put me off the Ultra and I did have a chat with Phil at Ratworks to build a gun for me. Never actually actually shot one but picked them up many times in the shop, feel spot on. Phil

    What increase in shot count do you expect Mitch with the longer cylinder and who is going to do the work for you. Phil

    Cheers Mark, noted Uttings. Thought JSB Exacts were AA Field made in Poland or somewhere. Phil
  21. philpot
    David , if it's for your HW100k try AA Express or JSB Express ,thats all i use in my now and seems good in the wind and better than Falcons in .177 I think they would be easier to get hold of compared to Falcons so they need to go on the list of test pellets.
  22. philpot
    I would like to try the .177 but nowhere near me sells them. Every bit of feed back I have read has been good so far and paticularly in HW guns. Phil

    I wish I could afford the Pulsar of Viz's, I would jump at that, Oh well.............bugger. Phil

    Well even it is not you matey, it is still a cracking photo.

    I have got to say Mac, your new avatar photo is really superb, love it and would have been pleased to take that photo. Phil
