bicykillgaz Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 :good:i've just swapped a few decoying bits for a hw77k (with hull cartridge barrel) and has come with a hawke 3x9-40 scope on it with one piece mount and a tin of eley wasps, in theory its cost me £65.00 as that was what i was looking to get for the decoy bits so i'm well chuffed, it in good working order and needs a little tarting up on the blueing which i'll eventually get done but other than that its great! hopefully it will lead to some new permissions where fac and shotguns aren't an option, and plenty more rabbits for the dog! :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineshooter Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 Bargin :unsure: , You may want to get rid of the Eley Wasps and try some Rws Superdomes though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bicykillgaz Posted April 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 cheers mate i've been looking on fleabay but didn't know if they'd turn up all dented or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VULTURE Posted April 2, 2010 Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 Hi Yes they will arrive dented,bought some off flea bay and sat for ages picking out the damaged ones, about a 100 out of the tin were slightly deformed around the skirt consistent with being battered about. to be honest you're better of buying several tins at once from your local dealer and getting a discount for bulk, works out a bit cheaper than flea bay and P+P.

bicykillgaz Posted April 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 can't you be cheeky and send them and a letter of complaint to the manufacturer and get some freebies? got to be worth a try i thought that would be the case, i'll go and get raped at the local i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigglet Posted April 2, 2010 Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 My 77K (.22) groups better with H&N Field & Target Trophys (FTT). It'll put pellet on pellet at 30yds no problem. Also worth considering if it's getting on a bit is a Steve Pope V Mach tuning kit. It will transform it http://www.air-rifle-tuning.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarpa Posted April 2, 2010 Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 I've have 2 HW77ks over the years... a fantastic rifle. Hope you have plenty of fun. I ended up using one of the Bisley pellets in .22... it was a shortish semi dome and a touch lighter so gave a great trajectory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicykillgaz Posted April 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 cheers for that pigglet i'll look into it h&n target and trophy i think my brother said he uses them but in hollowpoint i could be wrong though! cheers for all the suggestions guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
