mint rifles the 97's Robo both mine have the vortek seals in them...

 that mini tripod looks good for prone shooting, bet them 4 rabbits dont agree though!

 

Cheers mate, yep its called a porta aim and it's small and solid 8 to 12 inch and perfect for bench rest and sniping, best from a slightly elevated position or where the grass is not too high

Well done robo, what ft lbs do the 97’s run at in NZ? Am I right in thinking that spring guns aren’t limited but all pre charged are on ticket?

Hi yep, no regulations for springers, but all pcps incl 12 ft lb are fac, mines bang on 15 ft lbs and loves jsb heavies, in177, with the vortek kit, Vortek informed me they aim for 14/15 ft lbs, although the. 22 can be pushed to 17,

I find 15 in177 really nice to shoot

It's not as bright as it seems, It was a bit loud at first but you soon get used to it 

[Hi from New Zealand]

I shot these from a stop bank, between 53 and 60mtres its got a vortek PG2 SHO kit in in and is 15 ft lbs, 10mm groups at 55m

your dales bunnies would have to be very special... ☺

[Hi from New Zealand]

Hi

I moved to New Zealand 23 years ago, have had all sorts of firearms, over the years, got into archery and bowhunting, licence expired, didn't bother renewing it, and have now returned to my favourite of all time, spring powered air rifles, I have an HW97K Blue laminated version, and have tuned it myself, and am running a new engine - the Vortek PG2 SHO, 

have had great success with both targets and hunting, and now visit a mates property where I pick off rabbits at long-range [for an air rifle].
