youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Really I've not even looked at them at all until Gaz sent me the pic and gave me the figures !! I'm really interested ! Looks like he puts some time into them !! I've always used guns ! Bet there handy to drop in your pocket ! Are they hard to use does it take lots of practice ?? Not really hard to use but takes a lot of practice to get anywhere near accurate, consistently anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hubbs 178 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 I was wondering if they were consistent !! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted October 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Really I've not even looked at them at all until Gaz sent me the pic and gave me the figures !! I'm really interested ! Looks like he puts some time into them !! I've always used guns ! Bet there handy to drop in your pocket ! Are they hard to use does it take lots of practice ?? Figures???... it WAS free...a gift... But he had orded single bands... and instead of re-ordering and them not being there in time... i offered that if he paid for the bands i had here... id fit them and post asap..... So he had the for his trip up north at the weekend .... He means figures as in ammo and ft/lb etc. He said he didn't think they would kill a rabbit. I said that double gold bands send a 12mm ball of ammo travelling at 170mph. Or so I read anyway. Really appreciate the catty mate. Can't wait to have a go Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 I was wondering if they were consistent !! They are, as long as you put in the time with them, to be honest i think you can either shoot a catty or you cant imo, i found it pretty easy to pick up and get accurate with it despite a few setbacks, wheras friends who ive tried to get into it just dont seem to have the natural ability to shoot one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hubbs 178 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 That's what I thought ! I'd like to give it a go though ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You wont look back if you do, i love my ever increasing collection lol, ive always got a few lead balls and a catty in every coat ha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B.P.R 2,798 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Dont take too long to make bud... Just finding the time to make them ... Im.not 100% sure... but i believe double bands are slinging 9mm steel balls at 18+ lb/ft depending on set up..... think it may even be higher .... Bigger ammo... is a little slower... but by fcuk... packs more of a punch ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hubbs 178 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Haha that's brilliant ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hubbs 178 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Do the balls penetrate ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Small balls such as 9.5mm will go right through a dove, ive tried and it went straight through and busted its wing, have a look through the topics at my topic dove kill 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
