First of all, Hello everyone, I think finding this forum is going to be a great addition to my shooting. Im Alex, 25 in Birmingham. Been shooting for a few years, due to recent move to built up area (away from parents) am now struggling to find land to be able to shoot on. If anyone has any land available, i would be most appreciative if they could make contact. I will happily shoot any pests anyone does not want to persue in exchange for shooting permission. Pick of the bag always offered to land owner, shoots left as i found them, clean, tidy, no mess, and all wildlife respected. I have 2 friends who are also in the same position if an extra hand is needed, or if permission can be given to all 3 of us. We are not loonatics crazy or irresponsible If anybody feels they are able to help me/us. I/We would be very appreciative Many Thanks Guys, Happy to be part of the forum! -
Here is the question: IF you were you going to get a CZ455 with barrel swap facility would you with your initial purchase 1) Get it with a factory (varmint) barrel in .22 and then get a lilja barrel in .17hmr or 2) Get it with a factory barrel in .17hmr and purchase a Lilja in .22 Which caliber would be the better 'accuracy' upgrade and make the most difference. The cost is pretty much the same either way so .........? Lilja link: ( http://www.riflebarrels.com/products/cz_455.htm) -
As above folks i'm after a full die set for a .22 Hornet. I need a full sizer, neck sizer, seating die. Also, flaring and crimping dies would be good! No heavily used rubbish though folks..... Thanks.

Just had the FEO round to check me out for Rimfire FAC, .22 and 17HMR. All OK but he asked if I had experience with the calibers. I had to reply that although I had 30 years with a shotgun and more with an air-rifle, i had not shot a rimfire, tho I am familiar with safety aspects.the ranges they shoot to, ballistics, etc. He told me he would like me to get some experience with someone with a rimfire, just to get a feel of the difference I guess, discuss safe shooting and tips, get a few shots down range etc. He pretty much made it a condition, and to give him a call after, where he would process the application. I asked some questions, it could be an informal session, maybe an hour he suggested. I have no issue with this, a bit suprised maybe, but quite happy to pick up tips and pointers, and talk about shooting! Problem is I don't really know anyone that could help me out, so if any one is up for it, and is in a reasonable distance by car of Stockton on Tees, then I am looking for a volunteer! Actually another member I go shooting with has also applied for his FAC, is in the same area so same FEO, will probably be told the same , so possibly accomodate 2? We would be happy to pay for any ammunition of course, and a 'beer or two' or whatever! Any way, hopefully no harm in asking I hope! 'rimfire-rookie'

Hi guys, new to the forum, and I wanted a little bit of help from you . I've just received an air rifle from my father who got it off his grandad. He reckons it about 30-40 years old, but I'm not taking this as gospel. If anyone could tell me what model the gun is, that would be fantastic. It's not in its original colours as someone along the line decided to paint it in a rusty coloured paint, and I'm halfway through stripping/sanding off the paint to apply a different finish. I've attached a few photos just to help (sorry about the picture quality and lighting, can take more if need be). If it helps, all I know so far is that its 30-40 years old, is a .22 calibre and was made in Spain by a company called Elgamo (now known as Gamo). Any extra information would be brilliant. Cheers.
