I will shoot less often, and I already shoot less than I did because of rising costs. sadly my average clay score is going down because of it.

Hi Alan where are you to collect from?

Thanks guys 👍

Anyone know the shortest distance an FX wireless chrono needs the pellet to travel? would it work in a garage for example?

I don't have a solution but can sympathise. I have an s410f and a bsa r10se-the bolt on the bsa is very slick compared to the aa bolt but the bsa is regulated and needs less hammer spring tension to open the valve as it doesn't have 190 bar of pressure to work against as the aa does. bsa reg would be set to a much lower pressure needing less force to open the valve.

My browning t bolt likes eley sport and club, both are subsonic.winchester 42grain were awful- some are very definitely not sub sonic, go off with a real crack, others just pop and land 4" low at 50yds.

We all feel this way-goes without saying. But if lead free ammo doesn't work/isn't acceptable in existing guns, and there is a ban on lead ammo, new guns in new calibres with different barrels may be a real option. who knows- they may be better than exisiting guns with lead ammo. higher fps and flatter trajectory could be interesting. probably years in the future, if at all. most people will be stocking up with lead so it wont be a problem.

Steve Shally of the youtube channel AEAC seems to have good results with Predator GTO pellets, which I don't think are available here in the UK. He generally tests airguns with a variety of pellets including lead free and sometimes the lead free are the best in a particular gun. I was wondering if a new calibre or twist rate or smooth x type barrel might be on the way to suit a 12ftlb rifle and lead free pellets or slugs. A slug would be a better weight than a pellet but would need a different barrel to avoid excessive drag from the rifling of a conventional barrel I think.Someone like FX seem to be pro active with that sort of thing. New calibres seem to come along in firearms all the time.

People that use "ok?" a lot when they are explaining something. and start a sentence with "I mean..."

people that use the wrong word completely- brought instead of bought, pacific instead of specific, reallyannoysmeandanywaykatrinasaystomputhishandupherskirtonsaturdayorsummimornuffin

I thought I was doing well with 20k in my cupboard! ☺️

I have a cometa fenix 400s,very good gun. Trigger is excellent when adjusted right. I just have to get into springer mode when using it, it's very accurate. A few reviews on YouTube, but not always done by people that can shoot a spring gun.

Good old German para boots, all over the net and ebay. Made by Haix.

dead ringer for mine, including the BSA sling, except mine is .22😁

I bought one in .22 about a year ago, my favourite air rifle. very accurate and I get good amount of shots. I did do a shot count when it was new through a chrono and it was about what bsa said it would be. had a scorpion se before that and it would run out of air as I do a lot of plinking after a hunt. Never had regulator issues, but the owner of the gunshop I bought it from said he's had a couple with excess lube in the reg that goes sticky with time and needed a clean, job done and the problem didn't come back. The bolt pull is very light compared to my s410f probably because its regulated and doesn't need such a heavy hammer spring. My air arms is faultless but if I could only have one air rifle it would be the r10se.

very inconsistant round in my experience. quite a few are obviously supersonic and go off with a loud crack while others barely make a pop and land 4" low at 40 yards. now use eley club as they are cheaper and far more accurate and consistant and also subsonic. I don't need hollow point.

Hi I've got one, bought new about 3 years ago. mine was a bit down on power from new, something to watch for. They upgraded the gauge on the front from smaller diameter thread to a much larger one as they were prone to leaking, mine was done under warranty. It is heavy, took mine out sunday for a walk around and got through over 100 pellets plinking at the end of the day. Mine has a huma reg in it, you do get more shots per charge. Its certainly not a bsa or air arms in quality and you can get some good second hand stuff for the price of a new webley. I suppose it all depends on the price of the one he's seen.

I bought a new one last year and don't regret it. I got interested in a cz457 synthetic but the gap around the barrel/stock is simply horrendous. Then i saw the tbolt, very nice magazine, lovely walnut stock and straight pull did it for me. the trigger is very crisp but quite heavy. very accurate with eley ammo and built by miroku. pay your money and make your choice!

Blimey I paid £575 last year for a second hand marocchi 99 which has been faultless. That sounds like a really good buy.

an inch group at 50yd is as good as it gets with a gat 😉

Speaking personally, to get the best out of my spring gun I have to hold it as loosely as possible with my front hand just in front of the trigger guard but not gripping the stock,cheek very lightly on the stock and the gentlest of pulls on the pistol grip back into my shoulder. I can then hit empty shotgun shells at 50 yards when I get my eye in. Holding a springer tight and trying to control the recoil will be detrimental to accuracy.
