kyska Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 after years of shooting shotguns i am thinking of getting an air rifle ,do these Bsa Ultra`s come with right hand and left hand options or are they ambidextrous, please excuse my ignorance but your advise would be helpful cheers Dunc I'm trying to remember, looking at one of my old ones I stripped, I think they are left or right handed. Not 100% though mate. It does look that way by the photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peoown Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 (edited) As good as ambidextrous mate...the pellet probe release is on the right, but i'm a hardcore lefty and it makes no difference. A nice easy gun for the higher powers that are left handers The pellet will drop in from either side and you just 'thumb' the probe forward. Push in the cocking kn0b under the air supply and your ready to fire. Edited September 27, 2010 by Peoown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peoown Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 No probs Dunc.... The standard BSA silencer isn't the best but it completes the look of the gun, almost everyone replaces it with a Logon or Weihrauch for significant sound reduction. I havn't bothered as the compact size of the rifle lets me swing it round in the car for drive by rabbit shooting. Plus, there isnt a rabbit in the world that can get out of the way after its heard the gun fire. In my opinion the report is quite acceptable. I find RWS superdomes shoot straight in mine and once zeroed you'll murder anything within 30 yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncan Posted September 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 (edited) cheers Dirtdigger ,all info welcome. This is my first air rifle ,my 2 shooting buddies convinced me to get one as we have a country park , cricket club and a couple of schools that want the rabbits cleared plus an old grain store ,that is polluted with rats Edited September 27, 2010 by duncan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirtdigger Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 i`ll look into that Hodge, thanks dunc ive had mine for 3 years and it well out performs its price tag ,ive taken 60 rabbits out of a orchard that is half the size of a football pitch in the last 3 months ,put a bipod on and you can get half inch groups at 40 yards ,the mags can skip but if you bag 1 with all of the 10 shots youll have a bad back carrying it all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbonrocket Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 ine is 2 1/4 years old and has 50 rabbits but around 2000 rats to its .22 soul. Silencer is not great, I use the VC silencer and its great. Tench is the fella to tune your rifle if it needs anything done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
