nellywinner Posted November 26 Report Share Posted November 26 Bought a used Air Arms S200 Mk3 in .177, put a 30 quid 3d printed magazine on it from the bay. The magazine works faultlessly and has transformed the rifle into a great tool. It is pellet on pellet at 35metre...cant fault it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, I agree Vince, i keep mine topped up to keep the seals tight , not had any fail yet, The SMK XS 79 177 I changed to HPA , even that holds Air , A cheaper way to get a PCP rather than use CO2 , Although I do not use now as 177 is so fiddly to load now for me, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rellum Posted December 11 Report Share Posted December 11 As someone has already said on this thread BSA Ultra this one’s 177 single shot the MMC It’s deadly accurate light, simple to use and is not pellet fussy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't normally carry them home tbh, if you need to check zero etc then allow for the power curve you're going to start worrying, 40 shots tops is not really practical IMO for serious hunting and even worse for plinking/target work. You were asking about buying your first PCP and the Ultra was mentioned, I simply pointed out that it may not be ideal but if you are happy with the shot count fair enough.

clangerman Posted December 12 Report Share Posted December 12 1 hour ago, rellum said: How many magpies & crows are you going to carry home 40? factor in your zero check and a handful of misses your down to 30 shots which is nothing on a good day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trumpetier Posted December 13 Report Share Posted December 13 The only Ultra in .177 that I've had 40 plus shots out of, is the newer CLX got over 50 out of it. Every other Ultra I've owned in .177, it's been more like 30-35. I get 40 out my single shot MMC, but that's in .22. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing 3 magpies attacking the moorhen chicks when they were on the lawn and the crows making the barn owls life a misery has spurred me on to getting a decent one. Have a shot gun but too many horses here. I like the look of the Daystate wolverine forester in 177. Any pros or cons anyone got or had one. Any info much appreciated Hello, How did you get on with getting a PCP ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi I got myself a Daystate Delta Wolf. Think it’s a fantastic gun. Thinned out the magpies around here which is what I wanted to do so no complaints. So so accurate aswell.

Ultrastu Posted Thursday at 20:23 Report Share Posted Thursday at 20:23 My minimum acceptable shot could for a pcp is 30 .I have a few guns like this . Even my competition gun just makes about 33 shots for a 30 shot hft course . I've run out of shots hunting twice in my life .Once when the pigeons just kept coming into the decoys .and once ratting. Every other time I've had a pump or bottle near to hand . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
