Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701 Posted February 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Thanks il try keep it up, practice makes perfect as they say.. id love to come over and meet you and andy. i only have one 'shooting buddy' none of my other mates are interested so i like coming on here to share my enthusiasm towards air rifles with like minded people. id love to meet more fellow shooters .. and warm weather would be better for me aswell, hands wouldnt be shaking from being cold lol, so id also have no excuses hahaha. will be nice to compare rifles aswell. obv yours will be a lot better smoother etc but mines still nice enough for me.. for now lol Quote Link to post
Alan Holmes 11 Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Hi Skot I went on Monday to have a look and the HW80 was a lovely gun but quite long and been vertically challenged did quite feel comfortable. I was taken back with how light the HW95 was which made me less sure about if it the gun for me (a great looking gun though). Then I looked at the HW97 which I had originally not fancied, although my mates older version shot well and found it very comfortable for me to hold. I therefore think that I will probably get one in 177 ............... or 22, I just need to make a decision as im doing my own head in. As for my wife she is sick of hearing about it ha ha. Thanks Al Quote Link to post

Mawders 595 Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Skott with groups like that mate I would save your money and not get a tune. You seem to know your way round a relube and such. Maybe save that money for a pcp or something. Alan go for .177, cheaper pellets, flatter trajectory. I shot .22 since being a lad and changed to .177 last month and don't think I'll go back unless a special rifle comes along at a good price. Cheers Phil 1 Quote Link to post

Stop being gay and get out there I've had some really good days out this past few weeks and even my boys have coped with the cold (ish...) weather :victory:" Well Mr Action Poof I have been out with the HW80 and 77 and been out for a good mooch in the woods and it's been a great hunt for the odd squirrel and pigeons. Only seen one rabbit so far. I just like warmer weather.... Yeah I'm gay, I admit it! Oooh by the way. Had phone call from Tony Wall at Sandwell Field Sports. He's just waiting for the new heads to arrive and he'll be sending the finished kit up here as soon as he gets them! Best wishes mate. Simon Edited February 20, 2013 by pianoman 3 Quote Link to post
