Hornet86 started following Baikal hushpower .410
-
Single shot in a synthetic stock, locks up nice and tight and very quiet with subs, il include any I find, cosmetic damage to the can where the paint chipped off but iv had tape on so never bothered me personally,Price is Β£225 and collection preferred but will rfd at additional cost or deliver if local, also advertised elsewhere and obviously only valid ticket holdersMany thanksChris

Anyone have a Shot maker in South Yorkshire
Hornet86 replied to Hornet86's topic in Bullets, Cartridges and Reloading
Yeah good point to be fair, I imagine it takes a fair bit of lead to get warmed up, ready made it is then for now, I have a few kg of no5 i got in a deal a while ago I could use but really after no7 as itβs a .410, thought the extra pellet count would be helpfull. Very impressed upto now with the gun and how quiet it is, only thing that lets it down is the limited choice of subs to run through it π -
Evening all, after a few failed attempts at making my own shot maker for the hushpower Iβm just wondering if anyone nearby has one I could possibly rent for a hour or so , iv got the lead but no way of turning it into usable shot, so if anyone has one in the South Yorkshire area i would gladly throw you a few quid to turn my lead into something more than a paperweight. itβs not a lot of lead, probably about 4-5 lbs but I could definitely do with 4lbs of shot, maybe ******* in the wind but thought it may be worth a shot, no pun intended π, all the best.

Haha cheers walshie, and hats off to your mrs, mine won't entertain the idea of bikes full stop, although I think it's it's due to restoring a nsr in the kitchen for 18 months, still have the oil stains on the kitchen table, well, she calls it stains, I call it memories. Hoping to have it all passed for summer. with regards to the slow control I'm feeling confident about that bit, it's the high speed stuff I'm nervous about, I'm doing the mod 1 stuff this Sunday so il hopefully iron out any problems before the actual test, got another full day of practice on the 18th so I can only hope I have it nailed by then, just hope nerves don't get the best of me.

I hope so drut, I think it's more fear of the unknown, thanks Mickyh, any luck is appreciated, I think the nerves will settle a bit when iv actually ridden on one, I hope so anyway, got my eye on a nice 1998 bandit 600 that'll look smashing in the garage ?

As above, got my mod 1 test on the 19th ? Anyone done it recently ? Any tips ?, used to ride a 125 regularly about 10 years ago to get to work and back, in total I rode for about 4 years ish until my bike got nicked,passed the theory, did my cbt again last week and enjoyed being on 2 wheels but this Sunday will be my first time on the big 600, instructor reckons il need about 3 days training, 3rd day is half a days training and then the test, how easy is a 600 to ride compared to a 125 ? Iv been told there a lot easier to handle due to the weight etc but never actually ridden one it seems very daunting, bricking it slightly if I'm honest, any tips ?

Had a good amount of air pistols over the years, majority of them co2, best one i had co2 wise was a benjamin eb22, more powerfull than accurate....just have the hw45 and webley tempest now, well worth considering good old spring power π

Happy new year all, hope you all have good health and lots of pigeons π safe shooting guys

Where abouts is the header tank sitting ?

Well it was a eye opening programme to say the least, I don't agree with alot of things in the uk but I'm definitely grateful I don't live in a country where I feel I have to have a "where to shoot the burglar" talk with my kids.

17 weeks doesn't sound too bad, Mine took nearly ten months from handing the application in to getting a home visit but I'm South Yorkshire, and that was with a few phone calls and emails, cert didn't arrive for another 3 weeks after that, if they say it's all signed off etc then shouldn't be too long for you hopefully, if in doubt just keep phoning them, best of luck π

As already said above lol, teach me to take so long to post a comment π

Its not just the mod that misplace there kit, I remember reading something about a armed response officer leaving her pistol in a public toilet π³
