zini 1,939 Posted May 18, 2012 Author 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 The screw cut allows you to fit a silencer of your choice, and its also a lot quieter than a standard shroud mate. I'm getting the walnut thumb hole adjustable MFR from Theoben Rifles (.22), then its off to Ben Taylor for the once over and a full length Ben Taylor custom Huggett shroud and silencer like the MFR in the picture pal. Its going to be my main day time hunting combo and if all comes to plan it will be my best air rifle ever. Si. 1 Quote Link to post
StevoSmith 147 Posted May 18, 2012 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. Never got round to shooting a hare mate...plenty about now but that wasnt always the case....will prob still give it a miss till leverets are matured anyway.......Like you said mate practice as youve been so used to pcp's but i doubt it will take you 2-3 weeks mate.....i think week at most.....Would love to get out with Pianoman one day....he is the ultimate spring rifle guru thats for sure and now he's back on track with his life i will be pestering him for more tips lol...he has helped me improve no end Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted May 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 All true Stevo and good to hear about Pianoman getting finally sorted. Si. Quote Link to post

robwelsh 354 Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 I NEED that shroud on my huntsman if possible lol a lot thinner granted ,but it looks the bollocks haha very nice indeed Quote Link to post
Smokey 1 56 Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Great video, I have a R-10 Mk II in .22 cal. After a few grouping problems it will be going away to have the barrel screw cut and a full service, so will be using my HW100t for the time being. Probably wont use the shroud once if comes back.
