    I got a 4litre bottle that gives me 20 fills cost £147 incl delivery and a handle and costs £2 to fill way cheaper than a pump and the guy who fills them knows no need to test for years as he kknows its for air rifles .

    Yeah that was what i was going to do ,buy an 850 magnum and turn it to HPA as looks simple enough from the vids on the net. But then i saw that R8 was coming out and decided to get that instead which im glad i did as its an awesome rifle .

    If your on about the vid i put up yes the range is nice thats the main range ,theres 2 more either side with just feild targets which i haven't tried yet . Anyways at the range on saturday and the other members couldn't believe how quiet the R8 was with the weihrauch stumpy silencer and how accurate it was . I found at 40 meters the rifle was very accurate with no drop at all ,but at 50 yards plus i had to go from 1 mil dot to 2 mil dots as the pressure in the tank got low. Say when the pressure dropped to below 150 bar and when it dropped way below 100 bar 3 mil dots but still had some kil

    Right ive took the plunge and got one on its way should be here for Wednesday the 27th August ,got it for £375.00 from SFS .Was talking to one of the chaps in the shop and he said he took one out and tested it on a crono ,5 shots all measured the same reading he then went on saying it was anice rifle to shoot . Now on the research ive done on the 850 magnum every person has said that is a very nice rifle to shoot even though its co2 ,so being as the R8 is nearly the same and being pcp i decided to get one . Once ive got it ill put it through its paces and let you know what i think along w

    Ive had my 97KT black line for about a month and to be honest it did have a nice twang to it when shooting it .Ive now stripped it down polished in the piston and piston chamber spring ends and fine wire wool rifle chamber then greased and silicon greased where needed .wow what a difference it has made to the accuaracy of thiss fine rilfe ,was shooting at 30 mtrs at a 10p sized target and got all 10 shots out of 10 in the top half . Was very impressed so ive now ordered a service kits to make it even better and smoother to shoot . So glad i went for the 97kt as its a fantastic rifle and a pl

    Hi all been looking at this myslef since i heard about it ,info below which i got off some one on facebook . Welsh willy has one and has been testing it . He put on a bigger bolt handle . The rifle had a 3 fps spread over the chrono he found it accurate and the trigger was very good for a one stage. He said the bluing was superb very deep and black like an air arms And 180 full power shots from a fill. The mag system worked perfectly The stock looks and handles very well the pictures don't do it justice till you handle one It sounds like it could be a good buy. Heres my info passe

    Its this one mate just been released waiting ,some shops stock it or about too . http://www.airgunmagazine.co.uk/news/brand-new-walther-rotex-r8/ As you can see from the pic im really tempted to buy it ,especially with about 180 shots per fill . Ive seen loads of vids about modding the 850 airmagnum to HPA from Co2 which makes it a more consistant rifle . So i was doing abit more research about the 850 magnum modding scene and was thinking about modding an 850 magnum to HPA , but the i found about the Rotex R8 which is basicly the same rilfe so no modding required . Last but not

Been a keen BSA shooter years ago loved my old Super Star and Lightning ,Super Star was an ace gun shmae i got rid of it .
