bigmac 97kt 13,796 Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 Me and viz hit the big perm tonight 6500 acres we got there for 8.20ish and not long after that viz got his first in the bag then his second not long after that he was using his vulcan .25 now i have to say that this rifle is superb accuracy is unbelievable the pellet just go.s where you point it this rifle combined with the thermal scope is a force to behold it just blew me away (rez if you read this you would be a fool if you did not go for one of these ) the cocking leaver is near the middle of the rifle and not at the back with most bull pups so its not in your ear sort of thing so you can reload your next shot with out taking your eye off the scope much like a hw100 Viz soon got his third rabbit in the bag . I on the other hand had a good night out with my mate ,,,good crack ,,,good banter,,and a few laughs I missed a few with the impact 177 even a few feral,s in the barns Thought i was going to blank and i let the dreaded doubt set in and my confidence in the impact went out the window even more so when Viz turned to me and say,d IF THAT HAD BEEN YOUR 100D YOU WOULD OF GOT THEM ALL some thing i was thinking all ready to be honest . we loaded up the jeep and off we went to the top part of the perm (up on the hills ) where Viz using the thermal spotter saw 5 or 6 rabbits where he soon took out two of them one after another two quick shots we drove into the field to pick them up out of the jeep i saw one run and i kept it in my scope view following it as it ran if you stop your mine well it did just at the gate we drove through the instant it stopped i sent a jsb 177 heavy on its way strait into the back of its head . It just rolled over and lay there this boosted my confidence a little lol but iv a feeling this impact is not for me it may be going dont get me wrong mind its a cracking rifle 21 shot mag ,,,,600 shots a fill but its not a hw100 and apart from my raider single shot iv only jelled with one rifle and that was my hw100 carbine sporter may be i should give it a bit more time iv only had it three months and only been out with it a few times . any way back to the night we then drove along the farm road to the next field where i lit up a rabbit but told viz to take it out with the vulcan as it was twitchy and the lamp was making it that way so off with the lamp and the vulcan and thermal put another in the bag for viz . The next soon followed again Viz was top dog again tonight with one of the best bull pups iv ever set eyes on iv only had one shot of a vulcan and that was pavs one shot one kill 75yrds fac and all i could see was its eye in the nettles put it strait to sleep , as soon as i was lamping them tonight they would be off like they had jet engines fitted to them so a night vision is next on my list . finished with Viz 6 me 1 but i did not blank lol Rez dont be a fool mate get a vulcan i know i am atvbjimmy 9 Quote Link to post
big napper 3,599 Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 Sounds a great night mac, viz, I know your saying youv only shot your impact a few times mac but if you think your better with your hw100 thats what id be using, i think theyr one of the best pcp's around, iv had a few different ones and always got rid after a few weeks and gone back to the hw100, Great shooting viz with the vulcan and thermal it sounds like a right combination mate, 1 Quote Link to post

mark williams 7,557 Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 Nice write up Jimmy. Is Sean`s Vulcan F.A.C ? I`ve owned a HW 100 KT and KS over 5 years now and never even thought about changing them, stick to where your confidence is at it`s best mate. Again, great write up and excellent shooting lads. atb Mark. 1 Quote Link to post
Deker 3,478 Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 There is no doubt the PCP market is incorporating design/technology advances and producing some top quality guns these days. It has been the case for years though that a PCP commonly costs much more than a good .22LR, which in essence are simple compared to a PCP! 1 Quote Link to post

The one 8,482 Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 Still a nice result mate , but if the doubts are starting to creep in and your comparing it to other rifles its time to let it go in your eyes its never going to be as good as your 100 when as when your on form you can hit them and if you have a off day a machine gun wouldn't help Quote Link to post

ftm 3,357 Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 A month or so ago an impact was the best thing since sliced bread . Along comes a Vulcan and "blows" it away ? Try keeping your next gun Mac and "hunt" with it rather than shooting paper etc . Your never gonna bond with any gun if you keep changing them .(Not a pop at you Jimmy but if you carry on like this you will get disheartened) Quote Link to post
