vampire Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 I have had an ultra s/s .22 and it was a good little gun but prefered my aa 410 .177 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maidment78 Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 To be honest what are you using it for? Rabbits and pigeon I prefer the .177 for accuracy in a 12ftlb (personal choice) Rats .22 as the smaller caliber goes through and does not have the shock needed for an easy clean kill and rats are tricky little **** that rarley sit still and the larger pellet gives you more room to play. But, brilliant little model, change the silencer though, the stubby one is not good and I swapped it for a propper unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscarsdad Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 I just bought an ultra tactical ms on Friday in .177 - I love it. I wanted a .22 but there were none available at the sale price I paid. If it is for hunting then the low shot count makes no difference, it is a lovely little lightweight rifle and incredibly accurate. Mine has already accounted for wood pigeon, squirrel and its first rabbit last night which is this evenings dinner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apache Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 I bought one as an economical move into PCP rifles. Great and accurate little gun. Easy to use from the car [ I found my S410 too long for that]. Great for carrying long distances for a few shots. Once you get used to loading it can be done easily. I know of a corker for sale! http://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/156779-bsa-ultra-22-single-shot/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maidment78 Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 S420 too long, try my FAC S410, you have to zero the scope at 40 yards before the pellet leaves the barrel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Duncan Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 But, brilliant little model, change the silencer though, the stubby one is not good and I swapped it for a propper unit. The Weihrauch moderator I put on my .22 Ultra Multi-Shot made it pretty much silent. Shame the auto-load system was such pants! I always thought the s/s would be better.

Chris5780 Posted February 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Im looking at the S/S as the preffered choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigchap Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 i had one,the standard silencer is pants.fit a weihrauch. don't bother filling to the recommended 200bar if .22 as the sweet spot starts at about 180bar and is gone by 130bar giving about 30 shots.a much better choice than the multishot as the indexing mechanism is suspect.
