Starting To Think 177

[bigmac 97kt 13,811]

Well lads was out the other night and missed a few with the scorpion 177 that i no i would of hit if i had old faithful with me (raider) but then i thought later on what was i thinking i was using the scorpion as if it was 22 and not thinking 177 and i had treecreeper with me he must of thought i was a right pillock.

 

But i did hit a nice one with a standing shot but we both could not find it in the long grass

 

any way it bugged me so off i went to night again and this time i changed back to jsb,s i was using the bis mags but im a jsb fan and i set her up and off i went first one was about 30 yards

 

THINK 177

 

and let one go spot on and down it went out cold not even a kick 1 in the bag the next one was in the bull field (the bull has been moved ) it was sitting about 50 yards away but it ran and stopped at the fence line and i just stood still for a few mins and let it settle down i then closed in on it to about 40 yards and went prone and lined the shot up

 

THINK 177

 

I came off the cross hairs just a bit and let one go again and it just rolled over i was well happy .

 

Iv just got to get the 22 out off my head but iv shot 22 since i was a kid and its hard some times to switch it on and off but the more i use the scorpion the better i will be with it .

Mac

Once you get used to 177 , You may never go back to .22

I have shot .22 a long time ago , but found 177 suited me better

And as you know hitting power don't matter if you hit the right spot !

Mate , would not let any body have a regal if its up to me ,its a shame nice looking gun and a very pointable gun but nothing but trouble ,saying that had a few issues with the HW100kt ,its the way HC dealt with the problem which made the difference between Daystate and Hull cartridge , Daystate sucks on problems .

The heavies are a great pellet in most guns and seem to work even better in BSA guns

Nice one bud good going been really thinking about a 177 lately maybe a new ultra se so see how the funds go fingers crossd haha ?

[Daz39 962]

Nice one Mac, stick with the 177 mate....you know it makes sense.

 

And you don't need the heavies, the 8-9gr pellets put a rabbit down just as well, JSB, H&N FTT, canny pellets in the 100. I've plenty if you want to test some out.

nope, H&N FTT, I had a play with the AA, some JSB, Bisley etc but nothing is better than H&N FTT or the Weirach F&T specials in my 100.

[villaman 9,983]

Daz , have tried AA express 7.9 gr ,I use them in my KT and what a pellet ,even at 50 + yards
