Health and safety always. May have to do a risk assesment.....

 

Got that covered mate 8)

 

Risk- Pellets ricocheting From hard background

 

Who is at risk- The shooter and anyone in close quarters with the shooter

 

Precausions- Wear safety glasses

 

Findings- Pellets still hitting people in the face area

 

Re-evaluation of the precautions- Wear balistic proof full face mask, hard hat, leather overalls, steel toed boots and gloves :huh::feck:

 

Evaluation- All risks From ricocheting pellets have been eliminated

 

Had to do this For Engineering BTEC at school and laying it out simply like ive done it pisses me off :censored: Hate to think what the people who do this for a living feel about plus there should also be a coshh Asssesment but feck it

I'm hopefully going to pick up a cheap pistol at the weekend for humane dispatch in cage traps and a pit of tin can bashing.

 

Been looking at the Beeman 2004E by SMK. Think that'll do the job, and if I get it, I'll put a picture up for you.

The Beeman is a Chinese copy of the HW40 :thumbs: and is a good choice for a cheap pistol. Its a superb target pisto for the 6 yard and 10 Meter comps and yes at PBR it will put a pellet through a Bunny's skull and finish off a wounded animal. I would suggest though something of a larger calibre though such as HW45 although it's expensive, it will take the knocks and grind of everyday PC and last a lifetime :gunsmilie: It also has 2 power output levels so has the advantage of being able to transfere the appropriate level of Kinetic Energy on a Rat (lower level to avoid pellet exiting) an a higher level for a tougher skull such as a Squirrel.

 

Trying to get a brain shot on an animal in a cage trap however takes (as Ron will know and confirm) a bit of time as the animal is not likely to stay still for very long and when it does, its likely to be face on :yes: another reason for a larger Calibre so that a heart/lung or neck or general chest shot will result in a virtually instant kill.
