chrisjpainter Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Well, this is the new toy. Nay sayers - and I know are plenty of them! - can take a back seat on this thread It's in .177 (of course) and have teamed it up with a Sidewinder 3-12x50, as this give almost everything I want in a scope. I'm stupidly picky, and this was as close to perfection as it's possible to get for me! I've only used it once on Ronnie sunshine's indoor 20 metre range, but I'm pretty happy with the out of the box performance If only it would stop blowing such a gale, I could actually get out and bash some bunnies! no chance tonight though. I'm really impressed with Daystate Sovereign pellets though. Really good consistency and not a bent skirt to be found. A pleasing morning all round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruno22rf Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Can you get different steering wheels for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjpainter Posted November 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Can you get different steering wheels for it? Now you've made me want one... A nice wooden and chrome one out of a Jag E-Type perhaps. I sense as yet untapped market... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karpman Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Cracking setup and the results speak for them selfs! Thought you were a daystate man? Karpman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salop Matt Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Looking like good grouping, my DS MK 4 also likes these pellets but it also likes the Brocock pellets (basically crossman pellets) ATB Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisjpainter Posted November 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Cracking setup and the results speak for them selfs! Thought you were a daystate man? Karpman I was/am! My original intention was to get a Walverine B-Type. Then some daft punk stole my binoculars whilst on a birdwatching trip, so the idea of spending £1100 on a gun got shelved! So, when my Air Wolf is back from being serviced and checked over, that is getting sold and the money will recompense me a bit for the binoculars! I though about a Huntsman, for all of about 10 seconds, but hated the feel of the stock. So I went for this instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karpman Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Looks like you made a good choice fella. Karpman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salop Matt Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Fully understand trying to claim some cash back to replace the bino's but I wouldn't sell the Daystate and ironically my favourite of all the daystates is the huntsman classic ! Hope the BSA serves you well though ! What ret did you get on the sidewinder ? ATB Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
