Must say Ive it looks a good job well smart i can see now why you didnt whant to go shooting the other day. Yes you have made a nice job of grouting between your slabs OH AND NEARLY FORGOT yes it is a really nice pattern on the stock. Will have to have a day out see what its like on paper, Will give you advance warning if it shoots better than mine Ill pee in your boots. And tell everyone what you said about CZs looks very nice

Looked like a .308 size hole :yp: that was the drawing pin that got shoved through the back stop that made that hole. rite am going to have a look in a minute see if i can find it :yp:
-
I have to agree with you nick :yp: I was very dissapointed with mine when i first had it mind you the first shots were'nt too bad the groups were about 1 1/2 - 2 inches at 100yds but i put that down to new experience. I did get some groups that were better about 1 inch but not consistant. But after a bit of tweeking floating the barrel and better trigger got it down to about 3/4 at 100yds. as you say out of the box for over £500 you would expect it to shoot better. But hey its good now so must be one of the lucky ones. And I DID HIT A DRAWING PIN AT 100yds

just put my vote in. i use feds have tried others and have found them not to group as good. if there was a round that was cheaper then i would use them I found that when i tested remmingtons that the group was wider lower and to the left cci hollow gave a 1.25 group at 50yds . the cci game point at 100yds was over 1.5 So with a 3/4 inch group at 100yds using feds i will stick with them. Price is not an issue when it comes to killing whatever the quarry is.

Flash i cant really see the point in going for the mach2 you cant silence it like 22 subs its not got the poke of the HMR but still has the crack. whats the point ? Go for the HMR i am 100% sure you wont be dissapointed. you will soon be taking head shot rabbits out at 135yds as i did the other day
-
Hi RoBBo, I used to bait rats with mashed potato, i dont think that the cats will be to interesed in that. It has the advantage of not being able to be carried of by the rats as with other baits so they just sit there and scoff on the mash main course before getting there pellet pudding

nice size fish Mark, **** of butter bit of pepper, under the grill......... BOOOOOOOOtiful. I remember when i landed my first, all the other fisher men watching clapped when it was in the net, thought that was really good and sporting of them. A nice feeling, i am sure you will remember catching your first for a long time. keep it going
-
Nice shooting, thats irish hospitality for you. I would be nice to be as free with the rabbit shooting over there as it is with the fishing.
-
Hi just thought i would share this with you. Just been out with my Ruger HMR nice calm day so i thought i would try it at long range. well longer than my normal 100yds. Bit of target practice on empty cartridge cases. (miffy i forgot my drawing pins) front on. Sat across this field and waited for the rabbits to come out and do a bit of sunbathing and took a bootiful head shot at 135yds. A bute. sorry no picture cus forgot camara. Thats all. bit boring but me well chuffed.

Can uncle Ives garage repair my 250 could be worth a try... i think you just have to walk into the garage with it and give it a quick rub with a bit of sand paper get your ankle chewed by the Russle, growled at and thats it sorted. Oh and finished off with a cup of tea... Jokin apart uncle Ive did put me on the rite road Ive not sure if you posted the one when you missed the target made a nice neat hole in the swinger you made
-
Well Ive as you say happy as larry. Oh and i am sure that it was the HMR that did that drawing pin and not the 308 Miffy
-
thanks for your help Rob, got to page 15 on the GOOGLE and gave up. seemed to be getting further away. if you could find out any more for me, would be grateful. its not mine but a chap i know he broke his second one on monday thanks dougy
-
Can anyone help please, some time ago not so long i read about a brass pellet guide for a Carreer 707. are they available mail order ? Thanks dougy
-
no sighn of any branchers this way either went out today, Got 2 with HMR though on the muck heap no chance of any more wouldnt come any were near

Hi will, dont be put off by the replies about should have got this one or should have got that one there is nothing wrong with the 80 it is and was intended to be a work horse, one thing for sure is it will last you a life time. Accuracy is supperb but you must take time practicing, get used to the feel, the way you hold the rifle will make differences. When i bought mine it cost me £89 i sold it some years ago and regret it. so yes i have experience with them. HW80..HW77..HW35e As for puting a mod on yes ok it may make a bit of difference, but in my opinion not that much oh sorrry forgot pellets i used eley wasps.. they were the dogs danglies years ago
