  1. Our glorious neighbours have a compost heap at the end of their garden which is a bit of a rat haven. They've been wandering into our garden near the bird feeders and my 35 year old .177 just isn't up to snuff for the 30 yard range ( No sights - And the thing is like Jack Duckworths glasses - full of tape holding it together ) With that in mind I thought I'd allocate about £250 for a second hand rifle with a sight and just wondered if anyone can point me in the direction of a good bargain. Literally the best bang for the buck! I'm based in mid-sussex for reference
  2. That wax is really good. Love the fact that after cleaning my barrels, and dabbing some over them and polishing it in, that they're now glossy and fingerprint-proof. A hard buff into the stock has transformed the look. Looks really glossy now
  3. Son has cup final tomorrow so no shooting for me unless I can sort something in the afternoon
  4. Went to Kingscote instead - Got 49/100 which i was quite pleased with as it's only my 9th week of shooting.
  5. Anyone heading down there tomorrow? Fancy giving my gun a second outing, but don't really know anyone yet...
  6. Your's was one of the threads I read... Have devoured threads on Berettas, Brownings, Miroku etc they seem to have issues with Q.C. - 692's breaking in two, faulty ejectors - Rusty Brownings & Miroku ( Same Factory I guess ) I was hankering for a CG Summit Ascent but it just didn't feel right - RFD's said it didn't suit in the two shops i mounted them in.. What was the outcome of your complaint with Browning? - Don't think you posted on that.
  7. Does a wax not prevent you from using a tiny bit of linseed oil now and again on the wood?
  8. I hope so. Reading a few threads on rain killing the stock finish and rust, along with the general consensus that Browning customer services are awful certainly put some doubts in my mind. But have also seen similar for Beretta and Miroku in various forums. Price compares well to the new models given the 16% hike in price. Latest stock from Browning is now circa £2650 for them. Glad I got it at the old price
  9. I think it's grade 3 - It has the S3 on the side
  10. ... new Browning 725 Black Edition. Picking it up next week Got some carts and a slip thrown in as well.
  11. Good Grief - I wish I had your talent for a picture. Your flickr pictures are stunningly executed.
