zini 1,939 Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Hi lads and lasses, This is a range and field test review I have just completed on my new custom BSA r10 Mk 2 that I purchased earlier this week from Tony Wall at Sandwell Field Sports. I hope you enjoy the review and please look out for my spring rifle episodes that I will be filming very soon. Si. 1 Quote Link to post

zini 1,939 Posted May 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Hi Si Why have you gone for another .177 when you said in a early post you prefer .22 . Nice shooting again and another good vid Hi buddy, Because I got the rifle offered to me at a price that I could not say no too really buddy by Tony Wall at SFS. I also like the r10 as a rifle very much after owning one before for about 2 years plus. My .22 springer is ready for pick up next week and then the other rifle that Im buying in Feb is also a .22 custom Theoben and Ben Taylor MFR. So I will have the benefits of both calibres. Si.

zini 1,939 Posted May 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Great demonstration of Marksmanship Si with your new toy....Looking forward to seeing the vid with your new Springer in .22 Flavor Thanks Stevo, Yes I'm really looking forward myself to shooting again with a springer after so long of not owning one. Now that I'm back on my feet after my expensive divorce I can start and build up my collection again and keep them this time. I think that the PCPs will probably stay locked away now for the summer in the gun cabinet except for HFT and fast and furious rat shooting where I need a multi shot and the springer will be the main hunting tool over the next coming few months. The last time I went out with Davy shooting with my old HW97KT I got 18 rabbits and a hare in a afternoon with it at one of Davy's permissions, but I will have to yet again practice to get rid of any bad shooting habits to get up to that standard again. Give me 2 or 3 weeks of practice with it while it beds properly in and ill be there I'm sure filming some good clips. Si. Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted May 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 i neeeeeeed a pre charged! I believe that your HW97KT is capable of doing what a pre charged can do pal if you practice hard and long enough. Ive seen a r10 matched with a HW77 when I was shooting with Simon Pianoman.

The internals have been played with a bit and the reg has been tweeked so I'm lead to believe by John Bowkett but to what extent I don't really know pal. Its no where near as quiet as the HW100 S is but its just as accurate I believe and seems to fit me very nice. Si Edited May 18, 2012 by zini Quote Link to post
AR177 588 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Hi Si, Great shooting, watched the vid at about 11 last night looks like you have got yourself a great shooter there. Why the screw cut barrel instead of the normal shroud? does that effect the accuracy? i know it has some effect on the sound. Where are you getting your MFR from? Keep up the great work ATB Adam Quote Link to post
