    used hill pump to fill an air arms 200 for 11 years without any problems, before selling said rifle i stripped and serviced it down to the last part and after many thousands of shots fired and countless first class hunts the inside of my rifle were as new. based on that and a previous incident whereby my rifle had been damaged by moisture ingress from a dive bottle i would;nt be too quick to switch back to a bottle; It has to be said that i would,nt recommend using a pump if you have a heart condition or similar i am 50 years old and lets say a little stout but so long as care is taken with

    i was turned down 5 years ago for having a public order offence but thankfully growing up and acting accordingly i know have my fac and shotgun that came with a letter telling me that any incident that comes to the police attention will automatically revoke my licsense so it is a case of if you cant be responisible then it only right you cant have guns

    yeh its a 1 in 12 twist.i have been buying the hornady 40 grains i found them very good i was thinking of loading the 40 grains.do you think the 55 grains are better? i have not tryed them. i will be shooting foxes I use 40 grain V-Max bullets as well as l like the lack of recoil compared to the 55's but as l have just gone and bought myself a .270 calibre rifle recoil is something I'm going to have to learn to get used to cheers Callum like i said i havent used the 55s but the 40s seem to do the job on foxes hi mate i use pmc 55gr fmj-bt on the range and pmc 55gr sp hunti

    When I cook rabbit for stew or pie I cook it twice. I joint it then soak it then cook it in the oven. Then when cool I flake the meat off the bones and then make it into a pie with the other ingredients. Do you cook the rabbit meat once or twice as once cooking leaves it tough and chewy? only cook once mate the bacon fat helps to keep burgers nice and juicy
