I've been wanting to try these for a while. I've tried a few gimmicky pellets - the plastic Prometheus ones with the metal tips, Gamo Lethal, numerous hollow tips, H&N Green, H&N Hornet....... all shite. I kept reading good things about these Polymags - There's a good review on another forum at the moment. The missus ordered me a tin of .177 short and a tin of .22 regular to try. These things are expensive - around £12 for 200. From an initial inspection, they do look well made. I tried the .177s in my HW100 at 30yrds this morning. My rifle is zeroed at that range for JSB

Top 5 Cpc In .22
Jonjon79 replied to single barrel's topic in Rifle Reviews, Technical Help and Tips
I had a Wolf in .22. I think they're stunning. Mine had a custom blue and silver laminate stock. The thing is, service and repair costs are expensive and, although it was very accurate, it was kind of dead feeling - if that makes sense. Give me an HW100 any day. Sure it's still a tame pcp but, for me, it has all the clunks and clinks in the right places. -

Where's the stripped red rug gone from your hall way? I liked that rug -
Definately. I don't know why but I feel more confident with the lamp than I did with my NV kit.The NV is amazing if your lay waiting at 35 yards from a known hotspot but I like it be moving so it's a constant range estimation in the dark that I find easier with the lamp pal. Cheers. I reckon I'll try mine out.

Nice kit and, good shooting. I normally use nv but, I have got a torch with coloured filters. Do you find it easier to judge distance with a torch?

Welcome Underdog. You've found a friendly, helpfull bunch here. Nice rifle - I've heard good things about those. Shooting with open sights I see

Absolute scum. They should be burned at the stake. Reading those stories made my blood boil.

I know mate. She's the sort that tries to have her nose in everyones business. This was shot in a corner where there's a 6ft fence and a big metal shed She'd need to be right overhead to see it.

We get a fair few pigeons round our way because, it turns out, the local busy body/curtain twitcher a few doors away, is feeding them. They seem to crap everywhere, except in her garden. Having finally had enough of pigeon shit on my clean washing, the car, the patio and everywhere else. I tried a couple of things to stop them...... The plastic eagle didn't work, neither did the wavy bits of plastic on bamboo canes, neither did the netting. So, my last resort - I tried to scare them off with some bread I put it down in the part garden that isnt overlooked and, using the onl

That is nice without the stippling. The grain looks good and, I like the knot on the side.

As already said, it takes a big man to apologise like that - good for you. I'm sure your boys will be just fine learning from you. Atb.

I'm not a big fan of remakes. But, I do like Sweet Home Alabama by Kid Rock, he done well with that - It makes me feel like a good ol' Wiltshire red neck I can't stand it when they really f**k up good old songs by putting rap in the middle. I'm glad no one has messed with Gimme Some Lovin' by Fun Lovin' Spoonful'

Very nice. I hate Magpies But, I like the way they sometimes hang around, going nuts, when you shoot one of their mates.

How Do You Prepare Your Food For The Pot ?

...... I got to eat these two though. They'd been marinaded in lime, honey and chilli over night -
How Do You Prepare Your Food For The Pot ?
Jonjon79 replied to mark williams's topic in General Airgun Discussion
I usually gut them on site, leaving the livers in. Then, because most of my shooting's done at night, put them in the fridge. Next day, skin them and bag up the legs and saddles, 1 rabbit per bag, then put them in the freezer. I'm not getting to eat many at the moment - people keep asking for them. -
Prevention is better than cure with this type of gypsy - round here, most of the fields are blocked off with soil mounds or tree trunks to prevent access. It can be a pain in the arse to set it all up but, if you make it difficult for them, they might just pass through next time.

Nice work I've been resisting the temptation to add a .22 hw100 to my cabinet for a while.

Don't put your keys in the fruit bowl.

Nice gesture. Someone's going to love that as their first rifle. ....Well done that man.
-
Nice shooting and, nice rifle. I'm also not seeing many big 'uns on my main permission at the moment. I'm looking forward to the long warm evenings.
-
I've tried these in .22 and .177. They're fast but not accurate. I'm now firmly of the opinion that you just can't beat a good soft lead diablo. FAPs are fantastic in my .22.

Wtf is that all about? How would they even get those bulls to do that? It looks cruel and very painful. Not good.

Pianomans Stock Referb
Jonjon79 replied to bigmac 97kt's topic in Rifle Reviews, Technical Help and Tips
Those comments keep making me laugh on this forum If you post pics make sure everything is spotless and well finished with no embarrassing clothes or you'll cop a load of that kind of flack!! I'm thinking of doing exactly the opposite - I might put something in the background to see if it gets spotted
