  3. Hey everyone Up for sale is my Air Arms S400 Carbine. Included in the sale is: S400 Carbine .177 Silencer Bipod, not sure of the make but it's a tilt version and very very sturdy indeed, possibly Harris. Half tins of each of the following, H&N FTTs, AA Field and Daystate Selects. All shoot very well. JSR 3-9x40AOIR + 1 piece mounts. Scope Cloths. Carry case. FX 3 stage pump - bought a few months ago from BAR. Fantastic little pump and not too much effort. Unfortunately i left this at my dads house as i was living there over the summer until i found a new place in London but i can have him post this to you at no extra cost if you take the full outfit. It's a fairly old gun now, i bought it off the BB's earlier this year and it was camo painted. I stripped this off and re-finished it. It was my first woodword experience and it's turned out ok. There's some slight blueing wear on the air cylinder as expected from an AA It could do with some finishing touches i guess but it's everyone's favourite gun Shoots very well. When i shot it last month it was doing 11.3 ftlbs and shot very consistent 5p groups at 30-40 yards. Hasn't been touched since as i have moved back to London for more studying. Please message/reply with any interest. PRICE REDUCTION!! £350 for the lot. £360 posted to your door! All the best, Lewis
  4. I bought one on here i think it was. Second hand of course. It was ok but not great. So i did the old hair curler trick with some 'cloth' i can't remember exactly what it was and it's the quietest silencer i've ever come across for an air gun now. As it is it's ok but i'd go for a Weirauch or the AA Silencer if it's for an AA. All the best, Lewis
  5. I got a second hand AAS400 .177 with bipod and Simmonds 3-9x40 scope then bought a brand new air pump for the sake of knowing it's clean and fresh and bought 5 tins of different pellets to try included the recommended from the previous owner, all for £435. If i'd got the pump second hand it obviously would have been less. Personally i'd recommend a scope with paralax adjustment for closer range stuff which will put your cost up a little but WELL worth it. Like people are saying the S410 is a within your price range second hand with a pump etc. Wouldn't see any change though really. Well worth the pennies as these guns are basic and brilliant. Mine is no effort but shoots 1'' groups at 60 - 70 yards. Can't fault that. Daystate shmaysate All the best, Lewis
  6. Hey Personally i know that i'm shooting within the kill zone dead on from 10 - 35 yards and i very rarely go over that distance. So a range finder for me personally isn't much use as i know that at 40-50 yards i've got minimal hold over and don't shoot below 10 yards! If you're doing targets or learning your holdover or of course have a crazy .22 trajectory it could be useful. Unless you have a rimmy or something i personally don't think they're needed. All the best, Lewis
  7. I'm going to go ahead and be a pain and say a .177 Cyclone. I know people the love the HW100's but when i held one i felt like i was at the gym holding a plank of wood with a metal pole sat on top. Not a nice feel but a shockingly accurate rifle. Only ever held the Cyclone but i'd love to shoot one. Everyone i've spoken to who owns or has shot one says they're great. Sleak, more pointable, more reliable and more pleasant to shoot. I think you need to be careful about which age Cyclone you pick though. Whichever you pick you'll have no problem taking out what you're shooting though. All the best, Lewis
  8. This is interesting as i have a non FAC S400 which is STUPIDLY loud. It's not running hot in case people wonder, it's doing 11.3-5 ftlbs. I've had the standard AA Silencer and a SAK Silencer on it. One causes a loud thud that rumbles almost and the other a crack. Both can be heard equally down range! Pain in the **** really! Anyone recommend anything? Or just the HW? Sorry to thread hijack a bit but it'd kind of relevant as you could try the same methods i could Best of luck, Lewis
  9. I used .22 for about 2 years and then switched to .177 and i won't go back unless i go FAC. It encourages me to shoot better as when hunting the shot needs to be more crucially placed. As for the 'over penetration' arguements it's rubbish, any hole through the brain no matter how big or small will provide my dinner! I also like the trajectory benefit as i know the holdovers/unders are less therefore i am re-assured of my judgement. Cheers, Lewis P.S if i went FAC i'd probably go for a .20 or .25 anyway.
  10. I agree with what you want to do completely as i have a similar prpblem But i was under the impression this is classed as baiting and not allowed. Sorry just raising a possible point. Good luck though! Lewis
  11. You really don't have to spend much to get good results. My second hand AAS400 carbine is kicking out 11.5ftlb's and shooting 1inch groups at 50 yards, no doubt further if i work on it and frankly i'm convinced i can get another 15 yards over that fine. So for you the S410 shouldn't be a bad choice. Much less cost the the HW100(K), well balanced, in my opinion and experience just as accurate, just as reliable and a great, fun, stupidly accurate rifle. To summarise: Air Arms S410 carbine with a silencer, AA Field pellets + a bipod and decent quality scope and you'll be hunting with no problems. Personally i prefer .177 and just put the shot in the right place rather than relying on a .22 to do the hard work. Hope this is at least SOME help. All the best and keep us posted as to your decision, Lewis
