Ibought a s410 e from aa 4 mounths ago and it looks just the same as the one pictured,mine has side lever loading and yes it is better than the bolt action system, i had a 410 extra for over 4 years and i never had a problem with bolt action,but this new system is so light and easy to use,you will see when you try , there are a lot of improvements on new model over old,air arms dont change things unless its for the best,if you go onto yanky airgun forums you will see they love 410s , all the best big al

your right mate,although there are some very good shots about it does take some believing,and i would tend to think that a mistake has been made as to range ,iuse 410 extra 22 which has the power to kill at yards,but at that sort of range even a slight wind can blow pellet off by 3or4 inches and as to consistant headshots no way unless rabbits have head the size of a large pumpkin.I wrote on bbs oneday about a crow i shot at 80yards away,and i said that it was either a hit or miss shot/and i got a terrible slagging for being a leadsligger ,when i looked at previous writeups the chap who slagg

REDMAN DID I EVER TELL YOU THE STORY OFF THE FISH I HEAD SHOT AT 100YARDS IN A STORM AT NIGHT WITH MY 4FT LBS METEOR ITS TRUE TRUST ME

Sean your right the first bit of land is hardist,farmers seem to like to know you,and trust you,when they see what you can offer them they are more inclined to pass your name on to the next chap. Most of my permission has come this way,if you just keep to rabbits and pigeon shooting you will be safest when you ask i think,also a lot of farmers have no ideal at all about how effective air rifles for pest control can be. GOOD LUCK AL

Woodchip sorry a bit late but it been windy as hell down here in Bristol last few weeks. First proper field test with u caller yesterday. shot 2 maggies as soon as i entered farm off slurry pit,moved onto field that as been recently cut and staked out maggies,started u caller within 30 seconds i could see maggies flying in from 3 fields away,They can exactly pinpoint where call was coming from landing in top of hawthorn bush i was in. Being as you cannot use electronic caller for shooting, i managed to photograph 17 maggies and 2 crows in 2 hours. Ucaller works a treat and i would recommend

kenny mac You will get a fac air rifle a lot easier and be able to use it over ground where a .22 live could not be used. .22live has its place of course but fac air seems to be accepted by police and farmer/landowners with open arms IMO YOUR dead right mate great gun i had a rush of blood to me head and bought a fac air ranger that im getting use to at the moment
