Whereabouts are you based?

Finally got a chance to check the Rapid - turns out the bottle was loose I ran it over the combro first, it was all over the place - 14, 12, 18, 16 ft/lbs I think the o-ring had worn a little - re-filled it, change the o-ring and now back at 28 ft/lbs and the POI is back at zero where it lives Thanks for all the suggestions - will bookmark this page for future reference. WOW!

Now sorted thanks to muncher

Thanks guys - i'll dig out the Combro and check the power consistency first... If the reg does need a service - can you recommend someone to do it for me - i'll be able to get it apart and back together, but all the parts may not be put back in the right order 🤣

Hi All, Set-up is FAC Rapid Mk2 .22 @ 28 ft/lbs - Bisley Mags - Weihrauch mod - Bushnell Legend 5-15x40mm Just noticed something strange last time i was up the farm target practice - Shots were all low at 30 yards and grouping was off a little (usually sub 15mm) now about 30mm. Now I haven't used the gun for a while, however when I tested it a few weeks back it was shooting spot on. Nothing (from what I can think) has changed so a little confused why this has happened all of a sudden. Also when I have gone to adjust the elevation, I'm now maxed-out and won't go any higher - this makes me think the scope has taken a knock, but would that explain the increase in group size - probably not? To try and figure out what has gone wrong, my plan is thus: Re-fill the bottle Shoot a group Take off silencer Shoot a group Re-attach silencer Shoot a group Remove + re-seat scope Shoot group Obviously if the one of the items resolves the issue i won't go any further Does this seem a sensible approach - can anyone recommend anything else? Does the regulator need a service? Barrel clean? I'm going to try and go out one evening this week -depending on the heat- and see what the results look like. JB

As per title, or similar, pump or semi located in North Essex.ThanksJB

Just measured the fleece and pit to pit is 24" so might be larger than 40" JB

Bump please

As per title - looking for a shooting buddy in the local area. I have access to about 100 acres of open farm land, where I get pigeons, crows, rabbits and rats in and around farm buildings + a private individual who has a rabbit problem in his gardens (6 acres). Looking to potentially share shoots with another like-minded individual. Mostly interested in pigeon shooting with the SG, but also have FAC air rifle and .22RF. Cheers, JB

Deerhunter Brody reversable fleece/jacket Got this for xmas, but is too big for me, it says its a medium, but i would say its a large-medium. Excellent quality as usual from Deerhunter, very warm. Im gonna get the same fleece in a small. Was £29.99, but looking for £25 inc postage - Bank transfer or Paypal gift (or plus fees) preferred. <Pics here> Original blurb: Men's hunting jacket Deerhunter Brody made ​​from fleece material . It is equipped with a soft lining and is suitable as an outer layer for the period spring to autumn or as a mid-layer in colder weather. This jacket or sweatshirt has a zip along with a high collar that protects your neck from the cold.

Ah - prob a bit too far for me - I'm sure you will have plenty of more local takers shortly... JB

I'm in Saffron Walden - only 20 min south of Cambs - where are you permissions, north or south of Cambridge? JB

I did not know they were called whips! Some of them look like they compact right down to nothing! JB

Just be aware that you legally can't just put any old sound mod on your FAC air rifle. It needs to go onto your ticket by an RFD if i remember correctly. I'm not sure if they will do this for you, if you have bought it 2nd hand else where... I think a SAK is only about £35 new. I would recommend buying from your local RFD and start building a rapport with them. When you do apply for your FAC, you should apply for a sound mod at the same time. JB

Hi there, What do you mean by whips? Are we talking S&M/bondage or something else? Thanks, JB

Have been thinking outside the box a bit, anyone tried one of these as a bouncer? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Brookite-Telescopic-Windsock-Flag-Pole-Ground-Stake-Festival-Camping-Caravan-/112047242877?var=&hash=item1a16893e7d:m:m-EQYOBvynpFKGWidiDOuYg Thinking of getting a 3m one - though not sure if it will support the weight of a bird... Thoughts? JB

What were you shooting over? What was your setup? Thanks, JB

Just a standard Weihrauch used here on my Rapid Mk2 @ 28ftlbs. I don't recall the sound levels to be considerably different between sub 12ftlb and what i have now... JB

So i decided to go out after all this morning after some pigeons. On arrival there were plenty flighting from all trees surrounding the field i was planning on shooting over. I quickly set up my hide and put out 10 shells with decoy socks over them. And one homemade bouncer. After just 5 min the first one arrived and thought my luck was in, shot it and scared off a load that were circling. After that, only took 5 more shots for the whole time i was there 8.30-11.30. They were about, but just not on my permission. There was plenty of wind and overcast which made it ideal conditions, just none came my way. Frustrating! Think i'll go to another location next week and get them as they come in to roost. JB

Dims are 260 wide x 1530 high, that includes the separate ammo compartment on top. I can send you some photos if you provide me your email address...

Yes they do, and seem to be reasonably priced - although I am also tempted with some Deerhunter stuff as I like their quality...

As per title, I'm in the market for some new hunting clothing and noticed the above brand on eebs. Is it any good? From the seller's feedback it looks like they've sold quite a few units, either the jackets or trousers... Item 322260593452 + 112201010441 Cheers, JB
