Lord Geordie Posted April 24, 2006 Report Share Posted April 24, 2006 Took the Bairn out into the yard today and we had a good old go with his QB78 in .22 Man for a cheapo it's accurate :unsure: This is a 5 shot string at about 20 yards We spent a fair while plinking with tins paper targets clothes pegs and i was shooting strings with the Falcon Then i heard that all to familiar noise This guy was Taunting me and clocked me when i was taking a photo but just sat there cooing away to himself Still he isn't causing any trouble and aint in my garden causing a mess either so he is fine for now The Bairn had a GREAT time but his Co2 ran out :blink: Had to order some from an online auction Off to the clay grounds tomorrow to see if my new toy has turned up. Catch you later guys LG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatingisbest Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 which pellets were you using there? What size scope (if any) did it have on it? Looks very good accuracy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fiiish1987 Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 I had one not long ago. I set up a shoe box full of old mags. drove a long screw halfway in and was able to consistantly shoot the head and drive it all the way in (but i have a short garden). Thing is, after a while i was unable to hit a sheet of a4 at the same distance! (bout 10m) I tried everything, stripped it down, cleaned it up and nothing worked. I'm telling you, if i shot it at the floor, it'd miss! so its gone to airgun heaven and i'm not touching smk again (part from my g10).

beatingisbest Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 (edited) Approx how many full power shots did you get with the double charge? Would you ever use it for hunting purposes? Edited April 25, 2006 by beatingisbest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Geordie Posted April 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Approx how many full power shots did you get with the double charge? Would you ever use it for hunting purposes? About 30 full power shots and then they drop beyond decent power till it's empty. Power is about 10.4FPE so it would only ever be used for Rats and close pigeon.

fiiish1987 Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 Use a silencer. Its bloody noisy and the smk one works a treat. (although you its great for waking the neighbours without one). When i got my silencer i found it a bit to tight and ended up having to shave a bit off the barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
