mattwhite 1,993 Posted March 16, 2018 Report Share Posted March 16, 2018 Well as im sure your all aware, we are going to get more snow and wind etc as from tomorrow so i snook out on a new small perm thats got quite a few coneys on it just for last light tonight with Si's 99s. What a belting rifle! 2 shots and 2 rabbits from 35 yards each stood free hand.....well not totally free hand. I had to stand as there was a small mound in the way of the run coming though the boundary wall so rather than lie down and get soaked up close I opted for leaning my right shoulder blade on the house wall and taking the shots a wee bit furthar away. Both shots were clinical, lights out. For less than £200 New and a Si Brown fettle, you can't go wrong?? 8 Quote Link to post

By the looks of it mate it suits you down to the ground and you dont come across many spring guns that do that matt Iv fallen head over heels for this 97 iv had that many 97,s but not one like this the last one was close mind that i got off Viz . Iv not shot a 97 for two years apart from Si,s and that was only a few shots . But this one only has a little nudge in the shoulder and no snap very little recoil and its a 177 and there known to be snappy lol. My Next one is going to be a Pro Sport in 177 walnut stock then that will get a tune and a polish and a vortex seal along with the TX200hc she is having a new seal as well lol I was at Viz,s to day resorting the spring for the hawk and i had a shot of his PS iv told him if he sells it its mine lol it shoots that good . He thought it was snappy still but he,s a perfectionist nothing snappy about it at all. That little rifle suits you Matt and remember you dont need to refill it every time you take it out atvbjimmy Quote Link to post
