how do you check the barrell on a semi auto for anything stuck, up it? bloody lucky there hope it dont happen to me!
-
am looking for a new gun but almost every one i try does not fit me very well. When the gun is in it's natural shouldering location, my line of sight is far too low, by a fair bit i think dont know exactly how much, but how do you make this better so my line of sight is better, i think it may be too much for adjustable shims any help guys? cheers
-
thanks for both the replies glad to hear you like it mjr88 i think i mite have to purchase one it will be my first auto also think i might look for a shop with a second hand one so can give it a blast though to see whether i like it or not.. what adjustments do it have like spacers or anything as with most guns i have to keep my head a tad bit up off the stock to see up the barrell if that makes sense and want it to properly fit me for once this time even if i have to get stock altered cheers
-
does anybody use this gun am thinking about buying one with 3 inch chamber and a 26" barrell, but they are all new and dont usually like buying a gun without trying it first, any help would be very gratefull
-

looking to buy a 12 bore semi auto what are a few good ones to go for for about 500 second hand or around that?
-
it is tidal mate need heavy feeders bout 4-6 ounce to get out a good way i just kept feeding about an hour before dark every 10 mins then fished after dark had a few but this was biggest and yes gave a hlf hour fight, there is a sand bank and its hard to get fish over it when you got one on
-
lovely fish mate glad for you puts a smile on your face and cant get it off for along time,
-
fishing on the trent after barbel for a couple a days and landed this 13 pounder
-
thats sounds a good idea mate might try that thanks for the info
-
thats what the man set it to in the shop said it was about 10/ft/lbs and charged me 25 pounds to power it up, using aa field pellets at min, they were about 35-38 yards away!
-
i have had it put upto 11.8ft/lbs today so back out at 35yds and gave it a zeroing bang on after a few shots,then missed a couple a rabbits half an hour later just cant work it out getting frustrating..
-
cheers for all that guys i will just have to put alot of practise in and prob get a mildot
-
thank you very much for that info, i have just downloaded that software and i am trying to work it out now but on my scope i haven't got milldots it is just the normal cross hair it is a bushnell but not sur of the model, do you suggest selling the scope and getting a mildot version, i find it a lot harder to judge my yards at night i think a milldot scope and a rangefinder and i should be on my way but would be alot easier if i could do it normally.. cheers guys
-
ok so i went out this afternoon and gave it a zeroing i did it a 10 yards as thats what my local shop said to do it at as that would make it spot on for 35 yards. And it worked as he said, could get 5 pellets in a penny piece at the 10 and 35 yards which is great. BUT then i thought i would go out and try a few rabbits in field this evening and got one out of probably 7, not good at all, i am not used to missing lol. my last gun was a falcon lighthunter in 177 sub 12ft/lb, this is my first .22 but had it a while. the only thing i can put it down to is not being able to judge my distance
-
thanks very much,, i am goin to find the pieces i need to attach a handy cam hopefully wont be to hard
-
ah that explains it looks excellent im going to have to give it a go at knocking one up i think do you use a ir or is it ok without it thanks for all the advice i appreciate it
-
thanks for the replys, how do you only fill it upto the 170 mark as it just shoots straight up to 190-200 when i do it? i am deffinately goin to get one of them pellet sample packs
-
just in general really was looking at the deben aries models around the 550 mark i think. davyt63 ive watched a few of your videos looks great set up what sights are they is it nv or? cheers
-
is this any good for the price just want some info really before spending the dosh cheers
-
nice shhoting pal, what scope set up were you using its looks a good clear one looking for something similar myself ,many thanks
-
thanks for that i can only fill it upto what the diving bottle fills it upto which is 200 or just shy of it i am no good at judging distance anymore so was thinking about gettin a rangefinding scope like the bushnell yardage pro or similar which tells you your yardage as you aim,, i use the air arms field pellets they are not bad i think but may try another to to be sure, cheers tom
-
does anybody use one of these at this power and what pellets and scope do you have, think mine might have lost some power somehow or im gettin a rubbish shot is the 177 more accurate, cheers
-
good pup mate looks almost same as mine
-
put one up of your new one pal would be good to see it
