Grim Reaper 1 Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 (edited) With all due respect, doga. If you've got a cheap, underpowered, rifle you really shouldn't be hunting with it.im sure your right criss,i did not say i was hunting with it and the question i aked was ho to tune it up so as i could hunt with it,with all due respect. This is correct (in so far as you didn't say you were hunting with it) but in Chris' defence, you had indicated you wanted to though? You were asked in a previous post whether you would be hunting with it - to which your answer was (and I quote) "yep but mainly at knight . . . ." Please don't think of me as interfering, I am only trying to avert any ill feelings guys. Regards, Grim PS: Er . . . . .I'll grab the popcorn now!

Grim Reaper 1 Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 I am glad you took my perspective well mate, i meant no offence;) Yeah, ok i can see what you were meaning now (i think) thanks to your last comments. I have to say that i am in agreement with whats already been said really , and unfortunately (for you in your circumstances) CO2 rifles in general work with just too many variables. Thereby, any tuning work undertaken would, in all essence, be virtually worthless really, in terms of a consistent performance and accuracy? I know its not what you want to hear bud, but if you can see your way to putting some cash away over a period of time, then when you have enough of a 'cash stash', you may be in a position to consider something like say, an Air Airms S200? Just a suggestion well worth thinking about ol' bean. All the best, Grim Quote Link to post

ChrisJones 7,975 Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 im sure your right criss,i did not say i was hunting with it and the question i aked was ho to tune it up so as i could hunt with it,with all due respect. With all due respect, doga, this is an airgun forum on a hunting site but I'll concede that you're not hunting and if I've made an unnecessary mental leap between target shooting and hunting, then apologies are in order. However, we don't allow rifle tunes on the forum, and you'd know this if you'd read the sticky posts at the top of the forum. You'll get all advice but that. With all due respect of course.
