I always said the Old units were overpriced.

Deputy Prime Minister hires "vanity" Photographer

Her photographer is going to be very busy on the Photoshop software to make her look presentable I was thinking the same -
Well done Simon, great to see a Rapid doing what it does best, Just got my one out ready to go, spent some beer tokens on the new DNT TNC225 Nighttherm, just for the Rapid, there seems to be plenty of Rats getting about very early this year, it reminds me of about 10 years ago when my Gamekeeper mate had a plague of them , we shot 13,000 in 3 months, they were everywhere, I shot over 4,000 with my trusty Rapid 7 mk2 .20 Fac and it never missed a beat, its only just recently sprung a leak, but a fivers worth of o rings and 30 minutes work and she is back to normal. wish my fancypants FX impact M3 was as reliable as my Rapid, although I do have 5 backup Rapids just in case😉 Kev1gun

She'll have said that, she seems to be able to say what is required , she has said stuff before. I think she has an Old school no nonsense approach, but your right she will be gone, Look at Sualla Braverman, she started making the right noises, then she was moved sideways.

I think it's why he's trying to get a conditional ceasefire, because he's losing a lot of kit and men, but i'm not sure i'd want to play chess with him.

Well one thing is very very clear, we can't go on listening to the same old dodgy rhetoric from either of the main two parties, So radical change is needed, however is it going to be very difficult, but there this thing called "Hope" we just need lots of it, where there hope, there's a chance. I know where my votes going.

If GA isn't listed on your PulsarC50 use G1 instead, it makes very little difference

Cartridge manufacturer price difference

The speed also depends on the Gun, For instance one day we were messing about with my magnetospeed chronograph on my Perazzi trap gun with 18.4 barrels and using gamebore White gold 28gr fibres with 32 inch barrel the 5 shot average was 1300fps, near to the advertised 1350fps, when then swapped it over to a Miroku MK38 with 32in barrels but these were back bored and 18.6 the 5 shot average was 1175fps, so the barrels made a difference. there was less recoil with the Miroku, and it broke the long crossers but not as convincingly as the tighter barrelled Perazzi. we did test a ew other brands and found that the slower ones patterned better. not scientific but it's what our findings were at the time. -
Owned both, still have the S200 compatto seems very delicate, tap it on anything and my zero would shift.

There's a Network of gamekeepers our way that actively reports everything that happens and any poaching that happens and because of this quite a few of them have been caught and prosecuted, this is there way of saying up yours we'll do what we like. I have been out Foxing and they turn up, they are very aggressive, so I just leave the field and report it, I'd hate for them to get hold of any of my Rifles, so best course of action is leave and report. you stand no chance against 5 of them. they are everywhere around our way.

Depends what length barrel your Crown has, My friend has the .25 with a 500mm barrel and using 33.95 JSB kings running @850 fps so around 55ft/lb it shoots one hole groups at this speed and he's getting 50 shots before coming off reg we set the reg pressure to 130 bar, and turned up the hammer spring by removing the Stock to aid adjustment, he does very well with it, Hes using a Pard dS35 - 70 Scope with the BC s'o no need to worry about drop etc, it works very well if setup properly.

Lets all go back to bartering.
