But I see this one come up and thought I would go with a tried and proven recipe and for a little less money, well before I dump that synthetic stock and replace with a chunk of Thumbholed walnut I really do like that rotex and much prefer the look of the bolt action but think I will leave it for a while to see how it's still performing for you guy's a bit further down the line!

  11. Hi guys Ive got a bit of a question.. a family member called me to say they had seen a few rats in the back garden so i went round to have a look being a keen air rifle man anyways the garden is pretty stripped out so no shed and all that just some bushes and a worn fence so no where really to hide. There are two apple trees that dropped loads of apples last year and think thats what they have been after as well as other peoples bird feeders etc in their gardens. I looked around the garden and see afew dug holes under the fence and all that so come back in the morning with the .177 R1

  19. Cheers for the replys chaps I know it is a hard one!! There is always for and not so for on this matter i have only ever owned .22 in pro sport and a classic old hw 50 and am always a little unsure of .177.. i have seen si pittaway do really great things with both calibre but his i little bit of a better shot than me I guess in my mind i always think of .177 being less powerful than .22 please correct me if im wrong.. im just getting back into the sport so as much advise would be great thanks buddys
