youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Well after missing out on a side shooting catty being offered by blue pocket rocket, atomlab kindly offered me a side shooter he had made for absolutely nothing! the catty was posted monday and was delivered tuesday afternoon! all i had to wait on was the single theraband gold bandset (i will make my own one-day) the catty is stunning fits the hand perfectly and shoots like a dream. the accuracy at 10m is great and thats only after shooting it for a day as the bands were only delivered this afternoon. shooting marbles at the minute but as soon as i get some 9.5mm steel bb`s im off for the pigeon Stunning!!!! So thanks again atomlab there's not many that would go out there way someone, top bloke! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kranky 507 Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 You should get out with the marbles. They are about the same weight as a 9.5 steel ball. I've had loads of kills with marbles and they are only £1 for 150 from Poundland. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've had loads of kills with marbles and they are only £1 for 150 from Poundland. they seem more air resistant than owt else, good for target shooting but just carnt get on with them when out hunting Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kranky 507 Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 At long range, 20 yards +, you'll notice them veer off to one side but at normal hunting ranges they are fine and hit hard. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted June 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 i know what your saying but i just carnt get on with them when im out. even though like you said they weigh about the same as the 9.5mm they are still bigger, so for me im gonna get on the 9.5`s Quote Link to post Share on other sites
