Stuart1985 256 Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) Afternoon fellow hunters Picked up my first pcp air rifle on thursday afternoon after reading reviews of all kinds of pcps i settled on a Theoben Rapid 7. Could'nt wait to get out and test the rifle out in the field. I spend a good few hours playing about and of course matching it with pellets to get a perfect zero. I have went with bisley .22 pellets super field giving good groupings. Going to try other kinds of pellets this week just to see what other pellets are good with this barrel. Anyway went out to my newest permission (14 week rabbit cull program for my work) and managed to shoot theses all head shots at ranges between 15 yards to 45 yards. I am totally blown away by this rifle just itching to get out again, tomorrow night :) :) Edited July 28, 2013 by Stuart1985 2 Quote Link to post

Stuart1985 256 Posted July 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Only one small issue I have got a small leak, I think it may have been me not filling bottle up carefully. The leak only happens when the buddy bottle is attached to rifle not when attached to filling divers bottle. Any suggestions? Quote Link to post
