  1. Geez Marshman you can even make a potential natural disaster story sound somewhat poetic.
  2. No worries, was hoping to load a few in the near future to simply stem the boredom until I can get out on the Marsh.
  3. Evening, I was just wondering if people have reloaded itx 10 with standard fibre wads? I've done a bit of research, plastic wads and fibre shot cups have been mentioned a lot but not much talk of traditional fibre wads. The reason for my question is I'm considering buying some itx 10 to load for a 20 bore, cheers.
  4. Great to see that stone hide again! Another great retrieve by Ted
  5. Found them on a local gunshop's website and uttings?
  6. He hasn't mentioned the Galahad mate as he hasn't been in contact yet about the hw100
  7. As long as you're happy with it that's all that matters, I believe my enthusiasm for the Galahad is waning, a nice little S200 might suit next year, now if my RFD had an FX Wildcat MK2 in the gun rack I may of wee'd myself in excitement.
  8. I know shots into trees wouldn't be a problem but I'd struggle with standing unsupported shots at rabbits that's for sure!

    Whoops

    That bag must have one heck of a heavy duty zip, I knew you should of waited for the dreamline bullpup
  10. I personally will wait for a while to see how reliable some of these higher end guns are before deciding, my luck with guns is if there's a fault which only occurs 1 in 1000 it'd be the one I bought! While looking at the Galahad my gunsmith was telling me they've had 4 impacts returned for various reasons whereas the Wildcats seem to be pretty good. I'm really hoping he sorts my hw100, it's been nice of him to lend me various air rifles but it's made me realise how good the trigger is on mine.
  11. I'll be interested to see what replies you get as I sold my semi auto earlier this year and will look next year for a sxs for fowling.
  12. Several on Guntrader if you consider the over and under as well

    Thanks, I know we live in a messed up world and the person may of been a nice member of society at some point who's since fallen on hard times, I just can't fathom how anyone could think it's ok to just throw syringes out of a 1st floor flat.
  14. If I get a few more permissions to justify another air rifle the S200 would be a contender, it's a shame AirArms don't import the CZ200 as I'm sure that would do very well.

    Cheers mate, seen plenty of stuff like that on police programs but to actually witness it first hand was rather scary, I know people say spalding like Boston has gone downhill but geez! Now that is disturbing, but remember none of it will be her fault.

    Everyone knows what scum druggies can be/do, today I witnessed something that made me suffer a whole mix of emotions in a short space of time, from anguish to anger and then luckily relief. I was out with my family in spalding getting last few bits ready for school, we were walking down a small sidestreet when I hear something bounce on the floor near us, I see only a few feet away a syringe, a few more syringes are already scattered about! I immediately check my lads and ask them if they'd been hit or if they'd stood on one to which thankfully they hadn't, I look up but cannot see which flat it was thrown from, we moved on pretty quickly when the metal saucer used for heroin also was thrown onto the floor! I called 101, the bloke on the end of the phone was spot on, told him I would of been the one being arrested if one of my kids had been hit, I know the police get a lot of flak but I just hope officers attend to sort the mess out.
  17. Well just watched airgungearshow and Andy's airgun reviews on the FX dreamlite and both seemed impressed with it and so was I, then I was about to watch Andy's review on the FX dreamlite bullpup which I'm also keen on but lost the TV rights so will have to wait til later.
  18. Doesn't take much Mice! It simply caught my eye and like I said I didn't want to give it back, to add to what I've posted before, I'm hoping once I get my hw100 back to then see a bit better accuracy before I make a decision, oh and the Galahad is the artillery style .22 rather than the Laser like .177! 😱
  19. Well that's what I thought when I got the gun, I'll simplify it as best as I can, I wasn't happy with accuracy. Gunsmith confirms regulator set at 120 bar which is the highest one he'd seen. He winds it down to around 90 bar but takes half a minute once fired to return to 90 bar. Gunsmith believes he's sorted it however only getting 32 good shots per fill. Gunsmith checks his own work with the company HW100tuning, everything seems to check out but shot count is really low. Gunsmith then finds what appears to be a nick in the valve so hoping all will be cured. The upside of all this is he's been giving me different air rifles to play with to keep me occupied, started with an S400 superlite, a lovely gun but didn't feel quite right however pretty darn accurate. A Kral Puncher Breaker was next, best way to describe the accuracy would be like bowling a ball which then jumps over to the next lane to knock over your friend's pins. Latest gun is an S410, this simply fits like a glove, is well built and is happy to hug JSB Heavies closely together all day long at 40 yards.
  20. It comes with a built in spirit level though figgy to keep it upright Around £900 pal, I'd probably want an FX Wildcat if he had one of those in the rack as well . It's a walnut version with a £100 scope and a hugget moderater, he knows how to price things right, I'd have to sell the hw100 to help fund it that's the dilemma I'm in.
  21. Evening all, I went to see the gunsmith who's been fine tuning my hw100 for me and while there he had a Galahad at the front of his gun rack, very conveniently placed for me to see in fact . He went on to tell me it will be for sale soon, what surprised me most was the weight of the gun, being a bullpup I thought it'd be a lot lighter than it was however I didn't want to put it down, does anyone on here own one? I was wondering what the reliability was like, I have read some reviews saying how ugly it is but I personally love how it looks!
  22. I used to have a 3 1/2" Xtrema2, the few geese I got with it I shot mainly with 3" eley lightning's, what I realised was I couldn't hit many ducks with it when they were zipping by less than 30 yards away. I have a sxs game gun I can use bismuth in for ducks or if after geese I can use a 10 bore sxs so when the chance came to swap the xtrema for an air rifle I wanted I took it.

  24. I bet the Mozzies hope people venture out, I was pest controlling the other night and they attacked with a vengeance after the Thunderstorm had passed.
  25. You've quoted a 9 year old post from somebody who hasn't been on for 7 years pal, I'd keep trying rather than waiting for this person to respond.
