philpot 5,031 Posted December 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 Yes Jon. I prefer .177 but a .22 came up first which will make a good ratter or even taking up to FAC level. Phil 2 Quote Link to post

Phil I've only ever tried a .22 and that was nice. I also tend to prefer .177 - I reckon that'll be a very capable bit of kit Atb mate Quote Link to post
vizlauk 1,568 Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 Nice going mate; let us know how you get on with them; I seen you'd put the other 1 down to yourself on agf. Quote Link to post
philpot 5,031 Posted December 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 Yes I got it from a really nice guy on the outskirts of Durham. To be honest he added a few extra bits as I had travelled up your neck of the woods. I know I got a really good deal on this sale and told him so. I suggested he joins us on here as we have a few living up there and said he would at least have contact with you guys, I really hope he joins. As much as I like my HW100, I just love the balance and reduced weight of the Wildcats, even with an add on NV strapped on, they remain light and very comfortable to walk around with. Just need to get some range time to carry out more pellet tests. If anyone has a few JSB Express or RS in .22 that would be kind enough to send me a few, I would be very grateful.

Rabid 1,936 Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Very nice indeed, how you getting on with the .22 ? I am seriously considering one Quote Link to post
philpot 5,031 Posted December 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 I am loving these guns and involved in pellet testing at the moment. I have a much larger selection of .177 pellets to choose from and so far it does not seem pellet fussy but with the .22, I have only a few different pellets so needing to stock up on some for evaluation although again it does not appear to be so fussy. The results are as good as I have produced with the HW100 but to be fair with the high winds, it is a waste of time at distance at the outdoor range until the winds drop. Hope that helps Phil Quote Link to post
Rabid 1,936 Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 Thanks Phil, am hankering after one, seen a beauty in a grey laminate stock. Quote Link to post
philpot 5,031 Posted December 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 A rare one s/h to be sure, I do think the grey laminate looks superb and had I bought new, that is the one I would have bought although about £1400. Solway sell the lam stock for about £400.................................hmmmmm.............................no no no I MUST not do this. Phil Quote Link to post
