Well this is interesting... As I may have been discounting them tbh... I have to say this m.. As you know my new gun is still at Air Arms being reset to its intended level of quality rather than the one it arrived in. And I've been ringing them to ask where it is.... Whilst I had the technician on the phone he asked me how I liked their guns... I did think it a funny question as my 1200 quid gun was in bits... I said.... Weihrauch springers have been good to me but theyre internally agricultural in comparison to their springers but their HW barrels were good and loved their pellers.... And whilst I've got you on the phone... What is the difference becuase. Tbh.. Jsbs arent as consistent, he said.. AA have their best quality controlled output, better than their own standard exacts.... 

Gotta admit, I do see this when I shoot Jsbs... Which are the best of the rest. For me anyway... 

If I weigh and sort AA pellets, we are really cooking on gas...

Inside I can thread many of them through the same hole rested indoors... The express are really good... Flat and fast... Outside... I think they are too light... They take a lot of wind... Talking about the same thing recently... I hunt with 10. JSB exact heavies... They arent as bad as 0.22 but take less wind...

Regards I've been thinking 9. Something grains.. Might he the answer...

Jesus listen to me z I've vanished up me own arse lol

I'm lost here Jake, must have missed something. I thought you had no joy with AA after sending it back and all the trouble at the gun dealer, have you sent it back to Air Arms yourself or through another dealer.

No mate... It was sent back via the RFD. Sorry I thought you knew. 

Theyve only just fixed it. So I've been without it for... Flippin yonks.

I should say Phil I hope to pick it up. By the weekend and it better be perfect. 

They told me that they'd had it on "soke" checking for leaks. Gulp

So how did you get the rfd to get it sent back again after all the aggravation when they said it was fine because I got the impression they were no longer prepared to be involved.  Whatever I am pleased you are getting somewhere with it.

Well mate. Its supposedly sorted. 

I hope Jimmy's right and it comes out to be one that improves by going back through technical, and getting an extra long dose of quality control. Rather than one that spends its whole life being a PITA... But I think Jimmy must be right mate. AA quality will be too good for that. Its a premium Rifle or... As close to it as you can get before Steyrs / Anschutz... 

You know what I think of Daystates lol...so there was only one choice.
