Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701 Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 (edited) Well guys after getting home from a kickabout I grabbed the 97 and threw my willies on and I was off! After changing the spring round I need to chrono but I thought it be best if I put a few shots through it to settle down a bit. So I'm sat plinking away and then it started chucking it down, was a bit of a chill to the air and it was blustery winds, but if im honest, I would not want to be anywhere else. love being in the woods on my own clears my head . zeroed it as best as I could in the blustery winds and then thought right time to go get something for my tea! cant afford food now im skint fter works xmas party last night and extortionate taxi fares!! So a mooch produced a squirrel as my first victim, only about 10 yards away poor fcuker had no chance then got a crow good headshot at 40 yards standing leant on a tree but fell in a swamp so no pic lads sorry then MISSED a woody, feckin wind! pellet flew just past its head I was gutted! then bagged a woody, after choosing my target carefully there was 6 sat there but only 2 were safe clear shots after I shot the first one the rest flew off. then banged another crow another clinical headshot and it stuck up the tree ah well nevermind eh then seen a couple of woodys sat together like man and wife.. a quiet stalk to a convinent tree stump thingy at the perfect height to use as a rest, and I took aim on the male (biggest one ) now this 97 is very quiet when shot, so down goes the first one stone dead with a perfect headshot and the other one didn't fly off!! partially hidden by the stump I reloaded as fast as I could and it wasn't even bothered, might have been asleep so I took its head off aswell who needs a multishot pcp HW97K . Best gun ever imho Edited December 8, 2013 by Skot Ruthless Teale 3 Quote Link to post

Thinking of re doing the stock, its too orange for my liking.. but then im thinking I might camo spray paint the whole lot, gun, scope stock! if I don't like it after can always sand it all off and then re finish the stock and get it re blued. don't intend on selling it, and its something ive always fancied doing. obviously it wont be to everyones tastes, but its not their rifle lol . its mine so il do what I want with it lol wont be 'ruined' beyond repair so might give it a try. if I don't like it can always sort it out Quote Link to post
Daz39 962 Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 HAHA, I don't mind that mate, had me hands stuck up in a rabbits chest again Sat night....when was the last time you did that? LOL It's the damn pigeons and ripping off its ribcage I don't like. I'd gut a rabbit any day over a pigeon..... Quote Link to post

Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701 Posted December 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Could have gutted that squirrel but couldnt be bothered i just leave them for fox/crows I pluck then cut the breasts off the woodys. Rabbits dont bother me could skin and gut them all day. Im not one of these weirdos that wears gloves to do it either lol. Yesterday i stabbed then sliced my hand on a barbed wire fence.. and then got pigeon blood allover me 20 mins later. If i get some mad disease and it kills me then ah well il die happy lol 1 Quote Link to post

I have to make sure I eat my scran before he kills owt or its all covered in pigeon/rabbit guts. And no, no gloves for me, odd jobs that lot! 1 Quote Link to post
silentshot1 206 Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 "HW97K . Best gun ever imho :victory:"... Utterly agree with you! Can't get how good mine is with just 300ish pellets through it! Will always take the R-10 if I think I'll get a speedy second chance but I am just loving the .22 97k at the moment. 1 Quote Link to post
