    With a score of 181 I don't think you need any excuses Snopper! Well done.

    Rockphoon, nice to see you are maintaining your higher scores as well.

    by the way if someone on here knows how to set a Poll let me know, I can't figure it out and want to set one in regard to the next pistol competition. I will actually sponsor it to the extent of a voucher or payment of some sort to be used at the forum sponsors site, Ramsbottom. I tried to get a mod to pm me and run the idea by them but as no one replied I will go ahead and just do it anyway.

    p.s. John where did you shoot your HFT, weren't at Kibworth by any chance were you?
    Shepreth, 2nd in the recoiling, I would have done Kibworth as well if I had not been working on Saturday.

    Wendover for the 2nd round of the Southern Hunters next Sunday

    I ought to try out my 20mm kill Rat and my 15mm Squizzer HFT targets with the pistol for a laugh Not sure if 2 fpe will knock them down though.

    Cheers

    I was down at BAR on Friday and I just had to treat myself to a Compact... lovely gun and I have fancied one for quite a while, just need to find time and space to shoot it, and really need to find out how to ease of the weight of the second stage of the trigger... think I might even have a go at some of the comps on here...

    Just a thought, what pellets are prefered with this gun as the ones in the tin that were with the gun are really bad, haven't found one skirt that isn't bashed.

    Hi Photoguy
    glad you enjoy your new gun. A new pistol comp is starting on " another pistol comp " thread, feel free to join in, there is even a token prize involved!

    My compact seems to have a dislike for "RWS hobby" pellets, occasionally it will not spit them out for some reason, I have like others found the r10's a better choice.

    Cheers

    Thanks mate,

    I have had a look at the other thread, think I might just have a try.

    I will have a go with a few pellets and see what works... no, off to print some targets

    I'll pick a name of a competitor at random and send them a new tin of pellets as Xmas prize. I'll PM the winner and ask for an address where I can send the pellets to you in a Jiffy bag. (Note: If you use your works address please be sure that your colleagues are not the type to have a stroke or phone the Old Bill on seeing a tin of airguns pellets!)

    My December scores :-

    10 9 9 8 8 =44
    9 9 8 8 8 =42
    9 8 8 8 7 =40
    9 8 8 8 7 =40

    Total = 166

    Not to my usual standard, a bit cold outside and the full 20 sighters needed to get the gun warmed up. Bad head cold with general aching made it more problematical than usual.

    Cheers
