SteveieP Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 H&N FTT's in .22 (500's) at .............wait for it.........£3.75 a can! SDS watersports at Killamarsh near Sheffield. I was passing so I just dropped in (save on the petrol like.) Nearly crapped myself when the bloke tells me the price & had all on to resist throwing the credit card at them saying "I'll buy all you've got in the shop". Reckon they'd have smelled a rat & re-checked the prices if I'd bought more than 5 cans. Can't guarentee they won't twigg, but if anyone's local & fancies some cut price H&N's....

SteveieP Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Not sure they do mailorder but you can try for the cost of a phone call. Don't blame me if they've cottoned-on to their underpricing. Any way, just given 'em a little road test Feel & fit is a bit like Accupels... a fraction tight in the barrel & a slightly harder alloy than say AA's. A bit more kick due to the tight fit but boy do they go where i put 'em! Just as well & just in time.... wife reports seeing "a lovely little squirrel" in the garden today. Little swine has eaten through a bird feeder & scoffed the contents. I'm going to name him "number 16" as I like to give all our garden visitors meaningful names (if you see what I mean). Let's just say his days are numbered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donky7 Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 can you take a peek on the back of a tin....... it will say either 5,53, orc5,52, or 5,50.. ect. what are yours.. thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveieP Posted August 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 They're 5,54 so maybe the head size is a bit tight for some. On the other hand, if you,re shooting say an older Webley, then they'll be just the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donky7 Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) thanks for this.......... i've been using 5.53's which are tight, and weigh in at 14.4g, just bought a tin of 5.50's and they weigh in at 15.2....... oooooooo' so with these few i have, it appears the wider the head the lighter they are........ all great learning stuff.......... yesterday, i fired through the crono, 2 mags, 8 shots per mag, with the results, i applied to extorians webby, with their pellet weights @ 15.56g... with both figures, i was shooting at 12.3fps... which made me enquire about pellet weights. i ended up, with a friend, buying a set of digital scales to weigh my h & n's.... H&N FTT .22 5,53'S - 14.4g 5,50's - 15.2g. thanks... martyn. Edited August 22, 2008 by donky7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
