old'un Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 I might be in the market for a moderated o/u 20g, went to Saddlery & Gunroom website and could not find anything on their Investarm Hushpower 20g O/U, also most other moderated guns are out of stock. Are they still selling/making the Investarm Hushpower 20g O/U?….https://www.hushpower.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone wolf 2LI Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 I was in the market for one of there investarms Hushpowers last year after having a go of one. Found out there was supply issues with them and spare parts were hard to get hold of now. It was also mentioned that they were looking into another manufacturer of O/U to base there hushpowers on and they were in the proof stage......how true that is I dont know but that's what was floating around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With lead and plastic wads going they'll be of no use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have missed what you are saying but you say you use them with steel very effectively but suggest I hold back as lead and plastic wads are being fazed out?

Yes we do around sensitive areas horses etc. They work really well if you've got your back to them very little noise behind. I spoke to steve at hushpower some time ago there ok with plastic wads. But yes I'd hold back purchasing one till we know what is or is not happening with lead and wads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oowee Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 I have used 1 as my go to vermin gun for the last 5 years to save my dogs ears, shooting in a hide. Simply a brilliant tool but...... there is a learning curve it's like shooting a bazooka. You can literally hear the pellet strike on crows. Sub sonic ammo was £386 a thousand for 32g no5 subs from just carts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunny_blaster Posted February 5 Report Share Posted February 5 I’ve got one and it’s very quiet even with standard cartridges. I’ve only ever used steel through mine and it’s been fine. They do take some getting use to though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
