From pro shot ?
-
I’ve killed plenty with .6 sumekie, pm your address mate
-
I can make you a set of .6 sumekie if you wanna a try em
-
Trial n error mate, on a good day they are one of the most accurate frames going (as long as you do your part) but one hand hit makes you question why the fcuk you bought it... you may be one of the gifted ones who click with it , let us know how you get on ??
-
Yes bought a ply one, a very nice catty when you eventually get used to it. Don’t straighten your wrist right out or you’ll end up bruised ?
-
I havnt mate , one thing I have started doing is using the lanyard around my wrist, it’s not too uncomfortable but bloody hell my accuracy over a long distance has improved.
-
Dropped a squirrel this morning at range ??
-
Looks better than mine with that brown scale ??, you have to tune the bands Gaza.
-
Green with brown scales ( camo). Mine arrived today ??
-
I’m sure they’d be easy enough to make
-
As soon as you can get out mate we will take a walk to check a few drops and I’ll bring a catty along ??.

Shot this buck the other morning, 25/20 .6 sumekie and 8mm steel. I can comfortably hit a bottle top at 20 yrd so shot placement wasn’t a issue, I hit him and he did the usual summersault but to tell the truth I feel more comfortable killing with bigger ammo. It was a clean pass through but it will be my last hunt with 8mm.

-

-

That’s absolutely brilliant news, when I told the lad on eBay he was talking out of his arse ( on a mole catching group on Facebook) he fcuked me off with shite and one of our more prominent pest controllers On here backed him.... tossers, who’s laughing now eh boys ???? bet you ditch your mate and buy from the new source.. ? -
Just ordered one..... best be quick if you want one ?
-
I’ve always fancied a occularis, I think it would suit my way of shooting ( instinctive ).
-
Christ Fred ... don’t have a clue mate, I cut my bands at 150-170 and then trim em down to how it “feels”, different size’ for different bands if that makes sence.
-
Can’t remember the exact cost but I bought from simple shot and was hit with a £16 import tax... I vowed never to buy from them again, but I need another scout lt so I may bite the bullet ?
-
Yes pal, my bands for the scout are a good 20mm shorter as I don’t need to wrap n tuck ??
-
You won’t go wrong with the new scout lt , if your shooting pigeons, rabbits and close squirrels then get some gzk green .7 Cut at 25/20 and some 9.5mm steel from “ Balls of steel” Suffolk .. a cheap enough combo that’ll put food on the table.
-
I’ve shot a lot of stuff with the original scout (Xt) but the new scout lt Is something else. I only bought it in May and I could bore the feck outa people with pics of what I’ve shot with it, once you match your ammo with your bands it’s unbelievable. What ammo you using Neal ?.
-
I did yes, nice combo ( .66 and the pouch). these days I mainly hunt squirrels and for me I wouldn’t go any lower than .8 band and 11mm steel. They are tough feckers and to consistently kill you need to up the ante. But now and then I don’t perform as accurate as I should do I put on a light set up and gain my form back.
-
The.66 gzk you sent me is lovely stuff, I shot 7mm and 8mm fine with it ??
