Want to buy new this time, As long as I get a decent Px/price for my hw100 all together I could stretch a max of £900

Hello everyone! I am having a dilemma! I am going to be buying a new air rifle this weekend or ordering one in at my local gun shop as I am going from .22 to .177! I am going to look at a couple I had in mind and was wondering your opinions on them. The rifles are BSA R-10 super carbine, BSA Ultra SE, Daystate regal,AA s510. Anyone with any reviews or ideas on any please let me know what you think I will be buying brand new. I know it's going to be my personal choice on how they feel ect however I would like to know as much about them before going and making my decision! Pros and cons of all, any problems they suffer, ect.... Or is there any other rifles you would suggest looking at? I will be using it for rabbit, pigeon and crow shooting and plinking at my local range. Any help would be very much appriciated! Thanks in advance BENJI

Just had a quick brows on eBay and the only kits I could find with the same things as I got with mine are all around £47

I know mate like I said was just an misunderstanding & Davyo the t20 or t38 dose come with a mount (25mm or 30mm) , battery, charger,normal & the trigger button. And a choice in 3 mode or normal and ind delivery? Is that still expensive considering what it comes with?

I know they do and I appreciate it however it just felt like he was taking a dig at the time I stated everything he was saying in the post before his so I didn't get why he repeated everything I said to me, I think it was just a misunderstanding and everything is cleared up now, Many thanks Alex

Oh really as cheap as that, when I was looking for one I was just told by everyone to go to Trevor on nvuk due to how good they where and the service and as I was getting a nvuk kit I thought It would be easier, so I went to Trevor and he just said what one do I want out of the two after explaining what I will use it for he suggested they are exactly the same, same price, same performance, the only difference is the t38's case was a better build quality and the t20 can have a doubler if I needed extra range which I don't 150 yards is more than double what I would require for shooting with my sub 12ft/lb air rifle, so I went for the t38, as I'm sure a lot of people would have, I'm a big lad so I doubt the weigh between the two would make much of a difference to the overall weight Thanks alex

Yes tim they do cost the same, Trevor sells them both for £47 each I'm not sure where Evo has got his information from, maybe he is referring to the eBay ones that are £32 from carls customs? Alex

Excuse me I bought the t38 from Trevor from nvuk which cost the same as the t20 thankyou very much, like I said in my post they cost the same and are identical in performance however the t38 had a better outer case so I figured as they both cost the same I got the t38, the t20 and t38 both cost £47 from Trevor inc delivery, and that comes with the battery, charger, 3 mode, and the trigger switch or whatever it's called, and mount? Alex

Yh that's right I ordered my kit of Pete it's on its way in the post so should be here Wednesday or Thursday will let you guys know when it comes and may be able to upload some pictures for anyone who is interested in these kits mine is the upgraded dvr and camera, with the t38 which is a t20 in a nicer body

Tom join nvuk on Facebook they will give you all the help you need with building your own nvuk they are very helpful and are glad to help

Right just an update I have just put my orders in for a kit from nvuk (Facebook group) really helpful guys on the page should be ready for around New Years, cost me £250 for the upgraded camera and upgraded dvr, which is still over £150 saved for something just as good maybe even better than the nite sight, was told it will see 150yards with the t38 torch and over 250yards with a better torch but I don't need then extreme ranges. I had to buy my own torch but I just ordered one off of nvuk as well it's a t38 apparently the same performance wise and everything else as the t20 just in a better quality outer case for the same price £47, so in total £300 inc delivery for it so saved £130-£150 for the same quality (so if been told). All the reviews look pretty good only time will tell I will find out after new year when it's complete.

Thanks for the heads up, I only want the best that I can afford and if the night eye is much better than the nite site viper and is £20 cheaper I can't complain, however the night eye does look abit more tatty and does it also come with the different sizes scope clamp and rubber hose thing that the camera attaches to?

Iv read such good reviews about NS are they that bad there is only a £20 difference between the night eye 500 and NS viper and the NS comes with a 2 year warranty

Ok thanks I'll get one then, many thanks Alex

I cannot find a brand new ns50 anywhere! I can only find the nitesite viper, are these any good? Looking at getting one?

Scopes are confusing subjects 50% of people say you get what you pay for spend as much as you can afford, and the other half say don't spend a lot, the scope I am going to buy needs to last me as I don't want to have to buy another scope for a good few years and want to use it on an FAC if I get one in a couple of years I don't like 3-9 personally I just don't like it, I like the idea of the side focus so I'm not messing around at the front of the scope if I have to adjust it, I personally prefer reticals such as the AirMax 30 to just standard mil dots, I asked two local gun shops in my area about scopes and recommendation and both said the AirMax are good scopes and to spend as much as I can afford but I'm still a newby have only been shooting for a year or 2 and now iv finally got a decent gun I just want a decent scope and have got £250 ish spare to spend Many thanks to all the replies Alex

What's the difference in ffp and sfp I know it's where the retical is positioned but what's the pros and cons of both? I shoot small game rabbits, pigions, crows, magpies, rats ect.. At a distance of 10-40 yards mostly

Thanks for all the replies, I personally like a slightly higher mag for when I do abit of target shooting and zeroing, I also love the AirMax reticle, I'll have a look at that model in scopes before I buy anything tho Many thanks Alex

I also need to find some land! I don't mind if it is a tag along with someone or somewhere someone knows I could get permission? I'm in daventry Northamptonshire area, I use a .22 pcp air rifle and will shoot most things, rabbits, crows, pigeons, pheasants ect..iv got experience in shooting rabbits on my local golf course which I have permission however no more bunnys left to shoot so am now looking for a new place, and have done some pigeon shooting, always looking to learn new tips and any advice people can give me. Many thanks Alex

Thankyou everyone for the replies! I don't do much rat shooting atall really and I really don't like the 3-9 not high enough mag to what I like, I'll probably go for the 4-16 or 3-12 not sure yet!! also just a quick question when zeroing I have had various different opinions from people but should I use full zoom when zeroing or not? Iv had some people tell me full zoom, some tell me no zoom and others say in the middle so am not 100% sure Many thanks Alex

I think I'll just get the hawke AirMax 30 sf 4-16x50 I love the reticle on it and might as well spend the money on a good scope as I don't want to have to buy another one for quite some time not until I have the money to buy another gun in .177

I think the sidewinder is slightly out of my price range but. The air max is defiantly an option, are they good scopes? Also so 4-16 wouldn't be sufficient? I have had 3-9 on my last 2 rifles and never really used 3 mag so would getting the AirMax 30 in 4-12x50 be ok? Thanks for the quick replies

Hello, I am looking to buy a new scope for my hw100tk .22 and would like some opinions, I have around £250 and I'm after 4-12x50 or 4-16x50 ect... Anyone know of any decent scopes for that price range? I will be using it for hunting and the occasional target shooting but mainly hunting. Thanks in advance Alex

only got 2 rabbits the first night due to some kids on the golf course, but last night i got 4 but missed 3 within 2 hours, cant wait to get my new gun, will be much better than the one i have at the min, thanks for all the help with getting the permission to shoot, im so glad i have and if i do a good job might have a few other golf courses to shoot on as the greenkeeper is also the greenkeeper on another few local golf courses

I got my first 2 rabbits last night and when I got home I gutted them, one if the rabbits had 3 not very visible whitish spots on it's liver and I was wondering what it was and if it is safe to eat the meat, they looked healthy on the outside nice clear eyes and no swelling to genitals or anal cavity and no bumps or lumps anywhere I don't know how to put pictures on here otherwise I would, many thanks
